Phosphoric Acid Reregistration 

Eligibility Decisions; Notice of 

Availability 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

availability of EPA’s Reregistration 

Eligibility Decision (RED) for the 

pesticides Diiodomethyl p-tolyl sulfone 

(Amical 48), Busan 77, and Organic 

Esters of Phosphoric Acid, and opens a 

public comment period on these 

documents. The Agency’s risk 

assessments and other related 

documents also are available in the 

Diiodomethyl p-tolyl sulfone (Amical 

48), Busan 77, and Organic Esters of 

Phosphoric Acid Dockets. Diiodomethyl 

p-tolyl sulfone is used as an algaecide, 

bactericide, and fungicide for materials 

and wood preservation. Busan 77 is 

used to control of algae in swimming 

pools, hot tubs, whirlpools and 

fountains without fish. It is also 

registered to control growth of algae, 

bacteria, and fungi in recirculating 

cooling towers, industrial air washing 

systems, and as a materials preservative 

in metal cutting fluids. Organic Esters of 

Phosphoric Acid is used primarily as a 

fungicide and bacteriostat, with the 

main use site being a material 

preservative for carpet backings. Some 

other use sites include paint, textiles, 

vinyl products, polymeric laminates, 

and epoxy flooring and tile. EPA has 

reviewed Diiodomethyl p-tolyl sulfone 

(Amical 48), Busan 77, and Organic 

Esters of Phosphoric Acid through the 

public participation process that the 

Agency uses to involve the public in 

developing pesticide reregistration and

your estimate in sufficient detail to 

allow for it to be reproduced. 

vi. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns and suggest 

alternatives. 

vii. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible, avoiding the use of profanity 

or personal threats. 

viii. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the comment period 

deadline identified. 

II. Background 

A. What Action is the Agency Taking? 

Under section 4 of the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA), EPA is reevaluating 

existing pesticides to ensure that they 

meet current scientific and regulatory 

standards. EPA has completed a REDs 

for the pesticides, Diiodomethyl p-tolyl 

sulfone (Amical 48), Busan 77, and 

Organic Esters of Phosphoric Acid 

under section 4(g)(2)(A) of FIFRA. 

Diiodomethyl p-tolyl sulfone (Amical 

48) is used as a materials preservative. 

The following materials contain 

Diiodomethyl p-tolyl sulfone (Amical 

48) as a materials preservative: Paints, 

air duct coatings, fire-retardant coatings, 

pigment dispersions, inks, emulsions 

and extender slurries, adhesives, caulks, 

sealants, rubbers and plastics, textiles, 

leather, pulp and paper slurries, paper/ 

paperboard, and wetlap. Diiodomethyl 

p-tolyl sulfone (Amical 48) is also used 

for the preservation of wood. Busan 77 

is used to control of algae in swimming 

11946 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 53 / Friday, March 20, 2009 / Notices 

pools, hot tubs, whirlpools and 

fountains without fish. It is also 

registered to control growth of algae, 

bacteria, and fungi in recirculating 

cooling towers, industrial air washing 

systems, and as a materials preservative 

in metal cutting fluids. Organic Esters of 

Phosphoric Acid is used primarily as a 

fungicide and bacteriostat, with the 

main use site being a material 

preservative for carpet backings. Some 

other use sites include paint, textiles, 

vinyl products, polymeric laminates, 

and epoxy flooring and tile. EPA has 

determined that the data base to support 

reregistration is substantially complete 

and that products containing 

Diiodomethyl p-tolyl sulfone (Amical 

48), Busan 77, and Organic Esters of 

Phosphoric Acid are eligible for 

reregistration, provided the risks are 

mitigated either in the manner 

described in the REDs or by another 

means that achieves equivalent risk 

reduction. Upon submission of any 

required product specific data under 

section 4(g)(2)(B) of FIFRA and any 

necessary changes to the registration 

and labeling (either to address concerns 

identified in the REDs or as a result of 

product specific data), EPA will make a 

final reregistration decision under 

section 4(g)(2)(C) of FIFRA for products 

containing Diiodomethyl p-tolyl sulfone 

(Amical 48), Busan 77, and Organic 

Esters of Phosphoric Acid. 

EPA is applying the principles of 

public participation to all pesticides 

undergoing reregistration and tolerance 

reassessment. The Agency’s Pesticide 

Tolerance Reassessment and 

Reregistration; Public Participation 

Process, published in the Federal 

Register on May 14, 2004, (69 FR 26819) 

(FRL–7357–9) explains that in 

conducting these programs, EPA is 

tailoring its public participation process 

to be commensurate with the level of 

risk, extent of use, complexity of issues, 

and degree of public concern associated 

with each pesticide. Due to its uses, 

risks, and other factors, Diiodomethyl ptolyl sulfone (Amical 48), Busan 77, and 

Organic Esters of Phosphoric Acid were 

reviewed through the modified 4–Phase 

process. Through this process, EPA 

worked extensively with stakeholders 

and the public to reach the regulatory 

decisions for Diiodomethyl p-tolyl 

sulfone (Amical 48), Busan 77, and 

Organic Esters of Phosphoric Acid. 

The reregistration program is being 

conducted under congressionally 

mandated time frames, and EPA 

recognizes the need both to make timely 

decisions and to involve the public. The 

Agency is issuing the Diiodomethyl ptolyl sulfone (Amical 48), Busan 77, and 

Organic Esters of Phosphoric Acid REDs 

for public comment. This comment 

period is intended to provide an 

additional opportunity for public input 

and a mechanism for initiating any 

necessary amendments to the RED. All 

comments should be submitted using 

the methods in ADDRESSES, and must be 

received by EPA on or before the closing 

date. These comments will become part 

of the Agency Dockets for Diiodomethyl 

p-tolyl sulfone (Amical 48), Busan 77, 

and Organic Esters of Phosphoric Acid. 

Comments received after the close of the 

comment period will be marked ‘‘late.’’ 

EPA is not required to consider these 

late comments. 

The Agency will carefully consider all 

comments received by the closing date 

and will provide a Response to 

Comments Memorandum in the Docket 

and regulations.gov. If any comment 

significantly affects the document, EPA 

also will publish an amendment to the 

RED in the Federal Register. In the 

absence of substantive comments 

requiring changes, the Diiodomethyl ptolyl sulfone (Amical 48), Busan 77, and 

Organic Esters of Phosphoric Acid REDs 

will be implemented as it is now 

presented. 

B. What is the Agency’s Authority for 

Taking this Action? 

Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA, as amended, 

directs that, after submission of all data 

concerning a pesticide active ingredient, 

the Administrator shall determine 

whether pesticides containing such 

active ingredient are eligible for 

reregistration, before calling in product 

specific data on individual end-use 

products and either reregistering 

products or taking other ‘‘appropriate 

regulatory action.’’
