II. What Action is EPA Taking? 

This document extends the public 

comment period established in the 

Federal Register of July 13, 2005 (70 FR 

40336) (FRL–7721–3). In that document, 

EPA made available the human health 

and environmental fate and effects risk 

assessments for methyl bromide. Methyl 

bromide is a broad-spectrum fumigant 

chemical that can be used as an 

acaricide, antimicrobial, fungicide, 

herbicide, insecticide, nematicide, and 

vertebrate control agent. The most 

prevalent use pattern is as a soil 

fumigant; however, it is also used as a 

structural fumigant and for post harvest 

treatment of commodities. The Agency 

developed these risk assessments as part 

of its public process for making 

pesticide reregistration eligibility and 

tolerance reassessment decisions. 

Through these programs, EPA is 

ensuring that pesticides meet current 

standards under the Federal Insecticide, 

Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) 

and the Federal Food, Drug, and 

Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), as amended by 

the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 

(FQPA). The Agency received a request 

from the Methyl Bromide Industry Panel 

of the American Chemistry Council to 

extend the comment period. EPA is 

hereby extending the comment period, 

which was set to end on September 12, 

2005, by 30 days. The comment period 

will now end on October 12, 2005. This 

extension is being given based on the 

Agency’s delay in providing legible 

copies of the appendices supporting the 

risk assessments.
