we are adopting without change the

provisions of the proposed rule as a

final rule.

The Secretary hereby certifies that

this proposed rule will not have a

significant economic impact on a

substantial number of small entities as

they are defined in the Regulatory

Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601–612. This

rule will affect only the processing of

claims by VA and will not affect small

businesses. Therefore, pursuant to 5

U.S.C. 605(b), this final rule is exempt

from the initial and final regulatory

flexibility analyses requirements of

§§ 603 and 604. In addition, since no

notice of proposed rule making is

required in connection with the

adoption of this final rule, no regulatory

flexibility analysis is required under the

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601

Reporting Requirements For Risk/

Benefit Information; Amendment and

Correction

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This is a two-fold action to

make minor adjustments to the

reporting requirements for risk/benefit

information regulation. EPA is

amending and correcting the final

regulation published in the Federal

Register on September 19, 1997 (62 FR

49370). The regulation codified EPA’s

interpretation and enforcement policy

regarding the requirement of pesticide

registrants to report to the Agency

information concerning unreasonable

adverse effects of their products as

mandated in section 6(a)(2) of the

Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and

Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). In the first

part of this action, EPA is issuing a final

rule to change the definition of a

registrant to provide consistency with

that which is in the statute. The

amendment to the regulation will also

serve to clarify the scope of the

registrant’s responsibilities and

liabilities. In the second part of this

action, the Agency is making technical

corrections to the regulations for

clarification purposes. These corrections

include omitted, yet implied, reporting

time frames and required information,

missing conjunctions, and minor

editorial changes.

DATES: These actions will become

effective June 19, 1998.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Affected Parties

Entities potentially affected by this

rule are persons who hold or ever held

a pesticide registration under FIFRA

section 3 or 24(c). This rule may also

affect any officer, employee, agent, or

any other person acting on behalf of a

registrant. This listing is not intended to

be exhaustive, but rather to provide

examples of those entities that are likely

to be affected by this action. To

determine whether you or your business

is affected, refer to the regulatory text

contained in § 159.153 (definition of

registrant), and § 159.155(d). Any

questions regarding applicability should

be directed to the Agency Contact

Person listed above.

II. Background

In the Federal Register of September

19, 1997 (62 FR 49370) (FRL–5739–1),

EPA issued a final rule to codify its

interpretation and enforcement policy

under section 6(a)(2) of FIFRA. This

section of the law requires pesticide

registrants to report information

concerning unreasonable adverse effects

of their products to EPA. The rule

clarifies what information must be

submitted, how and when to submit it,

as well as what failures to report

information, or delays in reporting, will

be regarded by EPA as violations of

FIFRA section 6(a)(2), and actionable

under FIFRA sections 12(a)(2)(B)(ii) and

12 (a)(2)(N). The rule is to become

effective on June 16, 1998. As

published, the final regulation contains

several errors which may prove to be

misleading and are in need of

clarification. This notice makes the

needed corrections to the regulation.

EPA is issuing the first part of this

action as a final rule without prior

proposal because it believes public

comment on this part of the rule would

be unnecessary, impracticable, and

contrary to the public interest, and

therefore is not required pursuant to the

‘‘good cause’ exemption under section

553(b)(B) of the Administrative

Procedure Act. The Agency believes it is

important to make this change as

expeditiously as possible, so that the

change can be incorporated into the new

part 159 before publication of the next

volume of the Code of Federal

Regulations, and so that the change can

be effective before the new part 159

becomes effective on June 16, 1998. A

provision for public comments is not

warranted because the rule only

implements a technical correction and

does not impose any new requirements.

As explained below, the change is being

made to assure that the definition of

registrant in the rule is consistent with

that which is in the underlying statute

authorizing the rule.

III. Agency Decision

Section 6(a)(2) of FIFRA imposes an

obligation on pesticide registrants to

report to the Agency additional factual

information regarding unreasonable

adverse effects on the environment

related to their pesticide products. By

its terms, this requirement is placed

only on a ‘‘registrant,’’ a term defined in

section 2(y) of FIFRA as ‘‘a person who

has registered any pesticide pursuant to

[FIFRA].’’

The Agency changed the definition of

‘‘registrant’’ in the final rule issued on

September 19, 1997 from that in the

proposal to include agents and other

persons acting on behalf of a registrant.

As explained in the preamble to the

final rule, the purpose of the change was

to clarify that ‘‘registrants [are]

responsible for the actions of their

agents’’ and that ‘‘registrants will be

held liable for the actions of their

agents.’’ The intent in drafting the rule

was to make absolutely clear that a

registrant is deemed to possess

information when certain people
Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 118 / Friday, June 19, 1998 /Rules and Regulations 33581

working for the benefit of the registrant

possess the information.

The effect of including language on

agents in the definition of registrant in

§ 159.153, however, was to make agents

potentially liable themselves for failing

to report information to the Agency

pursuant to section 6(a)(2). A number of

persons have complained to the Agency

that this broadens the reach of section

6(a)(2), because the statutory

requirement is imposed only upon

registrants, and because agents who

have never registered a pesticide

product can not be considered a

registrant under FIFRA. This was never

the Agency’s intent, and the Agency

agrees that the definition in the final

rule published in September 1997 could

be interpreted to exceed, as written, the

statutory reach of section 6(a)(2).

The Agency is therefore issuing this

final rule to correct the definition of

registrant in § 159.153, so that it only

will include ‘‘any person who holds, or

ever held, a registration for a pesticide

product issued under FIFRA section 3

or 24(c).’’ The rest of the definition in

the final rule published in September

1997 referring to employees and agents

has been moved to § 159.155(b)

(redesignated as § 159.155(d) in this

document). The effect of this change is

that registrants are still responsible

under section 6(a)(2) for information

possessed by their employees and

agents, but the employees and agents

themselves, who are not registrants

under FIFRA, are not themselves

responsible for reporting adverse effects

information to the Agency.

IV. Technical Corrections

The corrections listed in this notice

address errors in the regulation

published on September 19, 1997. The

technical corrections consist of three

types: reporting time frames, required

information, and editorial.

The majority of the corrections ensure

that the time frames for submitting all

types of adverse effects information are

clearly established. In the proposed

rule, the time frame for reporting all

section 6(a)(2) information was 30 days.

In response to the public comments it

received, the Agency decided to allow

for different reporting schedules for

different types of information. The final

rule, however, listed only those

categories where the time frames had

been changed and erroneously failed to

establish time frames for all other types

of submissions.

Information concerning pesticides in

food or feed above the tolerance level or

if no tolerance has been established;

metabolites, degradates, contaminants,

and impurities; efficacy failure studies

for public health products; substantiated

incidents of pest resistance; and other

information described in § 159.195 must

be received by EPA no later than the

30th calendar day after the registrant

first possesses or knows of the

information. Incidents of efficacy failure

of public health products and pesticide

detections in water above the maximum

contaminant level (MCL) or health

advisory level (HAL) may be

accumulated for 1 month and submitted

by the end of the month following the

accumulation period.

A correction will be made to the

regulation to specify that detections of

pesticides in water below the MCL or

HAL but otherwise reportable

(§ 159.178(b)) may be accumulated for 3

months and submitted by the end of the

second month following the

accumulation period. The preamble to

the final rule stated that this type of

information must be aggregated into

quarterly statistical summaries as

described in § 159.184(d)(3) and (e).

Other technical corrections ensure

that useful information is submitted to

the Agency. Although these

informational items are implied, the

specifics relating to the information

required was inadvertently omitted.

First, for detections of pesticides in or

on food or feed (§ 159.178), and in

surface water and ground water

(§ 159.184(c)(4)(iv) and (v)) will be

changed to specify that the amount of

pesticide detected is reportable. Second,

the technical corrections will create a

cross reference between the requirement

to report detections of pesticides in or

on food or feed, or water found in

§ 159.178 with the appropriate specified

reportable data elements listed in

§ 159.184(c).

The last group of corrections to the

regulation include missing

conjunctions, typographical errors, and

minor cross referencing errors.

V. Statutory Review Requirements

A draft of this rule was provided to

the Secretary of Agriculture (USDA), the

Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition,

and Forestry of the United States

Senate, and to the Committee on

Agriculture of the House of

Representatives. The FIFRA Scientific

Advisory Panel has waived its review of

this rule.

VI. Regulatory Assessment

Requirements

This final rule does not impose any

new requirements. It only implements a

technical correction to a previously

issued Federal Register notice and the

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). Any

assessments necessary for the original

final rule being corrected through this

action are discussed in that final rule

and are not affected by today’s action.

In fact, this action does not require

review by the Office of Management and

Budget (OMB) under Executive Order

12866, entitled Regulatory Planning and

Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993),

the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44

U.S.C. 3501 et seq., or Executive Order

13045, entitled Protection of Children

from Environmental Health Risks and

Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23,

1997). For the same reason, it does not

require any action under Title II of the

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995

(UMRA) (Pub. L. 104–4), Executive

Order 12875, entitled Enhancing the

Intergovernmental Partnership (58 FR

58093, October 28, 1993), or Executive

Order 12898, entitled Federal Actions to

Address Environmental Justice in

Minority Populations and Low-Income

Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16,

1994). In addition, since this type of

action does not require any proposal, no

action is needed under the Regulatory

Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et

seq.).

VII. Submission to Congress and the

General Accounting Office

Pursuant to the Congressional Review

Act (5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A)), the Agency

will submit a report containing this rule

and other required information to the

U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of

Representatives, and the Comptroller

General of the United States prior to

publication of this rule in today’s

Federal Register. This is a technical

correction to the CFR and is not a major

rule as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).

performs any activities for the registrant

related to the development, testing, sale

or registration of a pesticide or the

person could be reasonably expected to

come into possession of information

otherwise reportable under this part. In

the case of information known to or

possessed by an agent or other person

acting for the registrant, a registrant is

responsible for such information only if

the agent or other person acquired such

information while acting for the

registrant.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This rule extends time–

limited tolerances for residues of the

pesticide buprofezin and its metabolite

BF 12 in or on citrus fruit at 2.0 parts

per million (ppm); dried citrus pulp at

10 ppm; cotton seed at 1.0 ppm; cotton

gin byproducts at 20 ppm; milk at 0.03

ppm; and cattle, sheep, hogs, goats, and

horse meat at 0.02 ppm, fat at 0.02 ppm,

and meat byproducts at 0.5 ppm for an

additional 1–year period, to July 31,

1999. This action is in response to

EPA’s granting of emergency

exemptions under section 18 of the

Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and

Rodenticide Act authorizing use of the

pesticide on citrus and cotton. Section

408(l)(6) of the Federal Food, Drug, and

Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) requires EPA to

establish a time–limited tolerance or

exemption from the requirement for a

tolerance for pesticide chemical

residues in food that will result from the

use of a pesticide under an emergency

exemption granted by EPA under

section 18 of FIFRA.
