SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    In the Federal Register of February 5, 1998 (63 FR 5907) (FRL-5743-
9), EPA issued a proposed rule to revoke tolerances for canceled food 
uses. The original due date for comments to the proposed rule was April 
6, 1998. EPA is extending the comment period until May 5, 1998 because 
EPA received a request for an extension due to the need to collect 
specific information that may be responsive to the proposal.

II. Public Record and Electronic Submissions

    The official record for the rulemaking, as well as the public 
version, has been established for the rulemaking under docket control 
number ``OPP-300602A'' (including comments and data submitted

including printed, paper versions of electronic comments, which does 
not include any information claimed as CBI, is available for inspection

holidays. The official rulemaking record is located at the Virginia 
address in ``ADDRESSES'' at the beginning of this document.
