Footnotes A. 

### During the 21 day initial content review, all eSFs will be reviewed to determine whether all inerts listed, including fragrances, are approved for the proposed uses. Ifan unapproved inert is identified, the applicant must either 1) resolve the inert issue by, for example, removing the inert, substituting it with an approved inert, submitting documentation that EPA approved the inert fortheproposedpesticidal uses, correcting mistakes onthe eSF, etc. or 2) provide the data to support OPP approval ofthe inert or3) withdraw the application. Removing orsubstituting an inert ingredient will require a new eSF and mayrequire submission ofdata. All information, forms, data and documentationresolving the inert issue musthave been received by the Agency orthe application withdrawn within the 21 day period, otherwise, the Agency will reject the application as described below. To successfully complete this aspect ofthe 21 day initial content screen, applicants are strongly encouraged to verify that all inert ingredients have been approved for the application's uses even ifa product is currently registered by consultingthe inert Web 3site [link to http://www.epa.gov/opprdOOllinerts/lists.htmlJ and ifthe inert is not approved, to obtain the necessaryinert approval priorto submitting an application to register a pesticide product containing that inertingredient. Some inert ingredients are no longer approved for food uses or certaintypes ofuses. The name and/or CAS number on a CSF must match the name and CAS number on this web site. Simple typographical errors in the name or CAS number haveresulted in processing delays. Ifan inert is notlisted onthe inert ingredient web site and the applicant believes that the inerthas been approved, the applicant should contact the Inert IngredientAssessment Branch (IIAB) at inertsbranch@epa.gov and resolve the issue. Copies ofthe correspondence with lIAB resolving the issue should accompanythe application. All new inerts exceptPIP inerts are reviewed by lIAB. The lIAB should also be contacted for any questions on what supporting data needs to be submitted for and the Agency's inert review process. Questions onPIP inerts shouldbe directed to the Chiefof Microbial Pesticides Branch [Linkto http://www.epa.gov/oppbppd1lbiopesticides/contacts bppd.html. When a brand, trade, orproprietaryname ofan inert ingredient is listed on a CSF, additional infonnation such as an alternate name ofthe inert, CAS number or other information [linkto http://www.epa.gov/opprdOOl/inerts/tips.pdf} must also be included to enable the Agency to detennine ifit has been approved. Each component ofan inert mixture (including a fragrance) must be identified. In some cases, the supplier ofthe mixture or fragrance may need to provide this information to the Agency. Priorto the Agency's receipt ofan application, applicants must arrange with a proprietarymixture or fragrance supplier to providethe component infonnation to the Agency or promptlyupon EPA's request. If the inertingredients in a proprietary blend (including fragrances) cannot or are not identified orprovided within the 21-day contentreview period, the Agencywill reject the application. Duringthe 21 day content review, applicants should submit information to the individual identified bythe Agency when the applicant is informed ofan unapproved inert. Unapproved Inerts Identified on CSFs All applications except conventional new products and PIPs Once an unapproved inert is identified on a CSF, the Agency will contactthe applicant with the following options: 

### 1. Correctthe application by, for instance, correcting the inert's identity or CAS number, providing documentation that the inerthas been approved, or removing the unapproved inert from the CSF orreplacing itwith one that is approved for the application's uses; or 2. Submit the information and data needed for the Agency to approve the unapproved inert Ifthis option is selected and implemented, the Agencymay request an extension in the PRIA decision review timeframe to accommodate the inertreview/approval process; 

### 4

### 3. Withdraw the application (the Agencyretains 25% ofthe full fee forthe fee category estimated); or If

### none ofthese options is selected and implementedbythe applicant within the 21 day content review period, the Agency will reject the application and retain 25% ofthe full fee ofthe category identified. Conventional New ProductApplications When the Registration Division identifies anunapproved inert on a CSF with an application for a new productthat the applicant has not identified as requiring an inert approval (R311, R312 or R313), itwill contact the applicant with the following options: L Correct the applicationby, for instance, correcting the inert's identity or CAS number, providing documentation that the inert has been approved, or removing the unapproved inert from the CSF orreplacing it with one that is approved for the application's uses; or 2. Submit the information and data needed for the Agency to 

### approve the unapproved inert, including anyrequired petitionto establish oramend a tolerance orexemption from a tolerance. (This option may changethePRIA category for the application, which could require a longer decision review time and a larger fee. If

### additional fees are due, theymustbe received bythe Agency within the 21 day contentreview period.) 3. Withdraw the application (the Agency retains 25% ofthe full fee for the fee category estimated); or
Ifnone ofthe above options is selected and implemented during the 21-day content-review period, the Agency will reject the application and retain 25% of the appropriate fee for the newproduct-inert approval category. PIP Applications Whenthe Biopesticide and PollutionPreventionDivision identifies an unapproved inert on a PIP CSF and a request to approve the inert does not accompany the application, it will contact the applicant with the following options: 1. Correct the applicationby, for instance, correctingthe spelling orname ofthe inert to 

### that in40 CPR 174, orproviding documentation that the inert has been approved; or 2. Submit the information and data needed for the Agency to approve the unapproved inert. Ifan inert ingredient tolerance exemption petition is required, the petition mustbe received by the Agency and the B903 fee paid within the 21 dayperiod. Ifthis option is selected and implemented, the Agency will discuss harmonizing the timeframe for both actions. 

### 5

### 3. Withdraw the application (the Agencyretains 25% ofthe full fee for the fee category estimated); or Ifnone ofthe above options is selected and implemented during the 21 day content review period, the Agency will reject the application and retain 25% of the fee.
B. A policy on documentation ofoffers to pay is stillbeing developed, however, for a me-too or fast track (similar/identical) new product, R300 or A530, an application without the necessary authorizations ofoffers to pay will beplaced into either R301 or A53!. The Agency recommends that authorizations ofoffers to paybe submitted with other PRIA applications to avoid delays in theAgency's decision. C. Biopesticide applicants are advised to contact the Agency and discuss study waivers prior to submitting their application to the Agency. Documentation ofsuch discussions should be submitted with the study waiver.
