                    **Federal Register**
                     of October 21, 2021 (86 FR 58239) (FRL-8792-04), EPA issued a document pursuant to FFDCA section 408(d)(3), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), announcing the filing of pesticide petition (PP 1E8898) by Interregional Research Project No. 4 (IR-4), North Carolina State University, 1730 Varsity Drive, Venture IV, Suite 210, Raleigh, NC 27606. The petition requested EPA to establish tolerances in 40 CRF part 180 for residues of tribenuron methyl (methyl-2-[[[[N-(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl) methylamino] carbonyl] amino] sulfonyl] benzoate) and its metabolites and degradates in or on 242 separate commodities and to revise the tolerance for residues of tribenuron methyl in or on oat, hay. Due to the length of the list of commodities, please refer to the Notice of Filing referenced above for a complete list of commodities with tolerances to be established. The petition requested to remove the established tolerances for residues of tribenuron methyl and its metabolites 
                    ( print page 42333)
                    and degradates, in or on the following raw agricultural commodities: Canola, seed at 0.02 ppm; Cotton, gin byproducts at 0.02 ppm; Cotton, undelinted seed at 0.02 ppm; and Flax, seed at 0.02 ppm. That document referenced a summary of the petition prepared by FMC, the registrant, which is available in the docket, 
                    *https://www.regulations.gov.*
                     No relevant comments were received in response to the Notice of Filing. Based upon review of the data supporting the petition, EPA is modifying many of the commodity definitions to be consistent with Agency nomenclature. The reasons for these changes are explained in Unit IV.C. III. Aggregate Risk Assessment and Determination of Safety Section 408(b)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA allows EPA to establish a tolerance (the legal limit for a pesticide chemical residue in or on a food) only if EPA determines that the tolerance is “safe.” Section 408(b)(2)(A)(ii) of FFDCA defines “safe” to mean that “there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue, including all anticipated dietary exposures and all other exposures for which there is reliable information.” This includes exposure through drinking water and in residential settings but does not include occupational exposure. Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA requires EPA to give special consideration to exposure of infants and children to the pesticide chemical residue in establishing a tolerance and to “ensure that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to infants and children from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue. . . .” Consistent with FFDCA section 408(b)(2)(D), and the factors specified in FFDCA section 408(b)(2)(D), EPA has reviewed the available scientific data and other relevant information in support of this action. EPA has sufficient data to assess the hazards of and to make a determination on aggregate exposure for tribenuron methyl including exposure resulting from the tolerances established by this action. EPA's assessment of exposure and risk associated with tribenuron methyl follows. A. Toxicological Profile EPA has evaluated the available toxicity data and considered its validity, completeness, and reliability as well as the relationship of the results of the studies to human risk. EPA has also considered available information concerning the variability of the sensitivities of major identifiable subgroups of consumers, including infants and children. Changes in body weights and organ weights were the most commonly observed effects in toxicity studies with tribenuron methyl. A particular target organ was not identified. Effects in subchronic oral studies were limited to body weight and organ weight changes, while chronic exposure resulted in more severe effects on the pancreas, spleen, kidneys, and reproductive organs. In developmental and reproduction toxicity studies, developmental/reproductive effects were observed in the presence of comparable maternal/parental toxicity; therefore, there is no concern for pre- and/or postnatal susceptibility. Tribenuron methyl is classified as a Group C “Possible Human Carcinogen” due to the observation of mammary gland adenocarcinomas in females in the chronic rat study. The point of departure (POD) for establishing the chronic reference dose (RfD) (0.8 mg/kg/day) is 95-fold lower than the lowest dose at which tumors were observed (76 mg/kg/day) and is therefore considered protective of any potential carcinogenicity. Based on the Agency's current practices, a quantitative cancer assessment was not conducted. Specific information on the studies received and the nature of the adverse effects caused by tribenuron methyl as well as the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL) and the lowest-observed-adverse-effect-level (LOAEL) from the toxicity studies can be found at 
                    *https://www.regulations.gov*
                     in the document titled “Tribenuron methyl. Human Health Risk Assessment for New Uses on the Individual Commodities in Proposed Subgroup 6-XXE, Dried Shelled Bean, Proposed Subgroup 6-XXF, Dried Shelled Pea as well as the Crop Group Expansions for Rapeseed Subgroup 20A, Cottonseed Subgroup 20C and the Individual Commodities in Proposed Wheat Subgroup 15-20A, Proposed Barley Subgroup 15-20B, Proposed Field Corn Subgroup 15-20C, Proposed Grain Sorghum and Millet Subgroup 15-20E, and Proposed Rice Subgroup 15-20F.” (hereinafter “Tribenuron Human Health Risk Assessment”) on pages 40-44 in docket ID number EPA-HQ-OPP-2021-0388. B. Toxicological Points of Departure/Levels of Concern. Once a pesticide's toxicological profile is determined, EPA identifies toxicological points of departure (POD) and levels of concern to use in evaluating the risk posed by human exposure to the pesticide. For hazards that have a threshold below which there is no appreciable risk, the toxicological POD is used as the basis for derivation of reference values for risk assessment. PODs are developed based on a careful analysis of the doses in each toxicological study to determine the dose at which no adverse effects are observed (the NOAEL) and the lowest dose at which adverse effects are identified (the LOAEL). Uncertainty/safety factors are used in conjunction with the POD to calculate a safe exposure level—generally referred to as a population-adjusted dose (PAD) or a reference dose (RfD)—and a safe margin of exposure (MOE). For non-threshold risks, the Agency assumes that any amount of exposure will lead to some degree of risk. Thus, the Agency estimates risk in terms of the probability of an occurrence of the adverse effect expected in a lifetime. For more information on the general principles EPA uses in risk characterization and a complete description of the risk assessment process, see 
                    *https://www.epa.gov/​pesticide-science-and-assessing-pesticide-risks/​assessing-human-health-risk-pesticides.* A summary of the toxicological endpoints and PODs for tribenuron methyl used for human risk assessment can be found in the Tribenuron Methyl Human Health Risk Assessment on pages 24-26. C. Exposure Assessment 1. 
                    *Dietary exposure from food and feed uses.*
                     In evaluating dietary exposure to tribenuron methyl, EPA considered exposure under the petitioned-for tolerances as well as all existing tolerances for tribenuron methyl in 40 CFR 180.451. EPA assessed dietary exposures from tribenuron methyl in food as follows: i. 
                    *Acute exposure.*
                     Quantitative acute dietary exposure and risk assessments are performed for a food-use pesticide if a toxicological study has indicated the possibility of an effect of concern occurring as a result of a 1-day or single exposure. Such effects were identified for tribenuron methyl. In conducting the acute dietary exposure assessment, EPA used the 2005-2010 food consumption data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, What We Eat in America (NHANES/WWEIA). The acute dietary exposure assessment assumes tolerance-level residues and 100% crop treated (100 PCT) for all commodities and incorporates default processing factors. ii. 
                    *Chronic exposure.*
                     In conducting the chronic dietary exposure 
                    ( print page 42334)
                    assessment, EPA used the 2005-2010 food consumption data from the USDA NHANES/WWEIA. The chronic dietary exposure assessment assumes tolerance-level residues and 100 PCT for all commodities and incorporates default processing factors. iii. 
                    *Cancer.*
                     Tribenuron methyl is classified as a Group C “Possible Human Carcinogen.” EPA determined that the reference dose approach used for chronic dietary exposure assessment is adequately protective of all chronic toxicity, including carcinogenicity, that could result from exposure to tribenuron methyl. Therefore, a separate cancer dietary risk assessment was not required. iv. 
                    *Anticipated residue and PCT information.*
                     EPA did not use anticipated residue and/or PCT information in the dietary assessment for tribenuron methyl. Tolerance level residues and 100 PCT were assumed for all food commodities. 2. 
                    *Dietary exposure from drinking water.*
                     The Agency used screening level water exposure models in the dietary exposure analysis and risk assessment for tribenuron methyl in drinking water. These simulation models take into account data on the physical, chemical, and fate/transport characteristics of tribenuron methyl. Further information regarding EPA drinking water models used in pesticide exposure assessment can be found at 
                    *https://www2.epa.gov/​pesticide-science-and-assessing-pesticide-risks/​about-water-exposure-models-used-pesticide.* Based on the Pesticide Root Zone Model for Groundwater (PRZM-GW; v.1.07), the estimated drinking water concentrations (EDWCs) of tribenuron methyl are 35 ppb for acute dietary exposures and 23 ppb for chronic dietary exposures. These modeled estimates of drinking water concentrations were directly entered into the dietary exposure model. 3. 
                    *From non-dietary exposure.*
                     The term “residential exposure” is used in this document to refer to non-occupational, non-dietary exposure (
                    *e.g.,*
                     for lawn and garden pest control, indoor pest control, termiticides, and flea and tick control on pets). Tribenuron methyl is not registered for any specific use patterns that would result in residential exposure, and the new uses would not result in residential exposure. 4. 
                    *Cumulative exposure.*
                     Section 408(b)(2)(D)(v) of FFDCA requires that, when considering whether to establish, modify, or revoke a tolerance, the Agency consider “available information” concerning the cumulative effects of a particular pesticide's residues and “other substances that have a common mechanism of toxicity.” EPA conducted a screening-level assessment to evaluate the sulfonylureas (SUs), of which tribenuron methyl is a member. Although the SUs share some chemical and toxicological characteristics, the toxicological database does not support a testable hypothesis for a common mechanism of action. No further mechanistic data are required, and no further cumulative evaluation is necessary for tribenuron methyl. D. Safety Factor for Infants and Children 1. 
                    *In general.*
                     Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA provides that EPA shall apply an additional tenfold (10X) margin of safety for infants and children in the case of threshold effects to account for prenatal and postnatal toxicity and the completeness of the database on toxicity and exposure unless EPA determines, based on reliable data, that a different margin of safety will be safe for infants and children. This additional margin of safety is commonly referred to as the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) Safety Factor (SF). In applying this provision, EPA either retains the default value of 10X, or uses a different additional safety factor when reliable data available to EPA support the choice of a different factor. 2. 
                    *Prenatal and postnatal sensitivity.*
                     No evidence of increased quantitative or qualitative susceptibility of the young was seen in developmental or reproduction studies with tribenuron methyl. In the rat developmental study, decreased fetal weights were observed at the mid dose while increased resorptions, mortality, and incomplete ossification were seen in the maternal animals at the high dose. In the rabbit developmental study, decreased fetal weights and abortions were observed at the same dose. In both developmental studies, fetal effects were observed in the presence of comparable maternal toxicity. In the rat reproduction study, offspring effects were limited to decreased body weights and spleen weights in pups observed in the presence of comparable parental toxicity. 3. 
                    *Conclusion.*
                     EPA has determined that reliable data show the safety of infants and children would be adequately protected if the FQPA SF of 10X were reduced to 1X for all exposure scenarios. This decision is based on the following findings: i. The toxicology database for tribenuron methyl is complete and adequate for FQPA evaluation. Studies available to inform the FQPA SF include developmental studies in rats and rabbits, a two-generation reproduction study in rats, and acute and subchronic neurotoxicity studies in rats. ii. There is no concern for neurotoxicity. The only effects suggestive of neurotoxicity were transient changes in motor activity and rearing behavior observed at the limit dose in the acute neurotoxicity study; however, these effects are considered secondary to systemic effects observed in the study and are therefore not of concern. A developmental neurotoxicity study is not required. iii. No evidence of increased quantitative or qualitative susceptibility was seen in rat and rabbit developmental toxicity and rat reproduction studies; fetal/offspring effects were observed in the presence of comparable maternal/parental toxicity, and the PODs selected for risk assessment are protective of these effects. iv. Exposure to tribenuron methyl will not be underestimated due to the conservative nature of the dietary exposure assessments (tolerance-level residues, high end drinking water estimates, and 100% crop treated assumptions). There are no residential uses. E. Aggregate Risks and Determination of Safety EPA determines whether acute and chronic dietary pesticide exposures are safe by comparing aggregate exposure estimates to the acute PAD (aPAD) and chronic PAD (cPAD). For linear cancer risks, EPA calculates the lifetime probability of acquiring cancer given the estimated aggregate exposure. Short-, intermediate-, and chronic-term risks are evaluated by comparing the estimated aggregate food, water, and residential exposure to the appropriate PODs to ensure that an adequate MOE exists. 1. 
                    *Acute risk.*
                     An acute aggregate risk assessment takes into account acute exposure estimates from dietary consumption of food and drinking water. Using the exposure assumptions discussed in this unit for acute exposure, the acute dietary exposure from food and water to tribenuron methyl will occupy less than 1% of the aPAD for all infants less than 1-year old, the population group receiving the greatest exposure. 2. 
                    *Chronic risk.*
                     Using the exposure assumptions described in this unit for chronic exposure, EPA has concluded that chronic exposure to tribenuron methyl from food and water will utilize 24% of the cPAD for infants less than 
                    ( print page 42335)
                    1-year old, the population subgroup receiving the greatest exposure. 3. 
                    *Short-term/Intermediate-term risk.*
                     Short- and intermediate-term aggregate exposure takes into account short- and intermediate-term residential exposure plus chronic exposure to food and water (considered to be a background exposure level). A short-term and an intermediate-term adverse effect were identified; however, tribenuron methyl is not registered for any use patterns that would result in short- or intermediate-term residential exposure. Short- and intermediate-term risk is assessed based on short- and intermediate-term residential exposure plus chronic dietary exposure. Because there is no short- or intermediate-term residential exposure and chronic dietary exposure has already been assessed under the appropriately protective cPAD (which is at least as protective as the POD used to assess short- or intermediate-term risk), no further assessment of short- or intermediate-term risk is necessary, and EPA relies on the chronic dietary risk assessment for evaluating short- and intermediate-term risk for tribenuron methyl. 4. 
                    *Aggregate cancer risk for U.S. population.*
                     As explained in Unit III.A., risk assessments based on the endpoint selected for chronic risk assessment are considered to be protective of any potential carcinogenic risk from exposure to tribenuron methyl. Based on the results of the chronic risk assessment discussed above in Unit III.E.2., EPA concludes that tribenuron methyl is not expected to pose a cancer risk. 5. 
                    *Determination of safety.*
                     Based on these risk assessments, EPA concludes that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to the general population, or to infants and children from aggregate exposure to tribenuron methyl residues. IV. Other Considerations A. Analytical Enforcement Methodology Adequate enforcement methodology (high-performance liquid chromatography with photo-conductivity detection (HPLC/PC) method, Method AMR 337-85 (Revision A)), is available to enforce the tolerances for residues of tribenuron methyl in forage, grain and straw commodities. To enforce tolerances for residues of tribenuron methyl in canola, corn grain, cotton, flax, sorghum grain, and soybean seed commodities, a liquid chromatography with mass-spectrometric detection (LC/MS) method, DuPont Method 1381 is available to enforce the tolerance expression. The methods may be requested from: Chief, Analytical Chemistry Branch, Environmental Science Center, 701 Mapes Rd., Ft. Meade, MD 20755-5350; telephone number: (410) 305-2905; email address: 
                    *residuemethods@epa.gov.* B. International Residue Limits In making its tolerance decisions, EPA seeks to harmonize U.S. tolerances with international standards whenever possible, consistent with U.S. food safety standards and agricultural practices. EPA considers the international maximum residue limits (MRLs) established by the Codex Alimentarius Commission (Codex), as required by FFDCA section 408(b)(4). There are no Codex MRLs for residues of tribenuron methyl. C. Revisions to Petitioned-For Tolerances Commodity definitions were revised to be consistent with EPA's commodity vocabulary. Revisions were made for many of the individual commodities in the proposed subgroups 6-XXE: Dried shelled bean, except soybean subgroup and 6-XXF: Dried shelled pea subgroup, respectively.

In addition, EPA is revising the tolerance for oat, hay from 0.05 ppm to 0.4 ppm to align with the hay tolerances for other cereal grain commodities established under 40 CFR 180.451 as requested by IR-4. Finally, EPA is removing the established tolerances for residues of tribenuron methyl in or on the following individual raw agricultural commodities as they are redundant with the established crop subgroup tolerances being established in this rulemaking: Canola, seed at 0.02 ppm, Cotton, gin byproducts at 0.02 ppm, Cotton, undelinted seed at 0.02 ppm and Flax, seed at 0.02 ppm. VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews This action establishes tolerances under FFDCA section 408(d) in response to a petition submitted to the Agency. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions from review under Executive Order 12866, entitled “Regulatory Planning and Review” (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because this action has been exempted from review under Executive Order 12866, this action is not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled “Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use” (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001) or Executive Order 13045, entitled “Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks” (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This action does not contain any information collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 
                    *et seq.*), nor does it require any special considerations under Executive Order 12898, entitled “Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations” (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). Since tolerances and exemptions that are established on the basis of a petition under FFDCA section 408(d), such as the tolerances in this final rule, do not require the issuance of a proposed rule, the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 
                    *et seq.*), do not apply. This action directly regulates growers, food processors, food handlers, and food retailers, not States or Tribes, nor does this action alter the relationships or distribution of power and responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions of FFDCA section 408(n)(4). As such, the Agency has determined that this action will not have a substantial direct effect on States or Tribal Governments, on the relationship between the National Government and the States or Tribal Governments, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government or between the Federal Government and Indian Tribes. Thus, the Agency has determined that Executive Order 13132, entitled “Federalism” (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999) and Executive Order 13175, entitled “Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments” (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000) do not apply to this action. In addition, this action does not impose any enforceable duty or contain any 
                    ( print page 42337)
                    unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1501 
                    *et seq.*). This action does not involve any technical standards that would require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). VII. Congressional Review Act Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 
                    *et seq.*), EPA 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 the rule in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . This action is not a “major rule” as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). List of Subjects in 40 CFR Part 180 Environmental protection
