the new law. Tolerances are considered 

reassessed once the safety finding has 

been made or a revocation occurs. EPA 

has reviewed and made the requisite 

safety finding for the ODM tolerances, 

pending completion of the 

organophosphate cumulative 

assessment. 

Although the ODM IRED was signed 

on August 5, 2002, certain components 

of the document, which did not affect 

the final regulatory decision, were 

undergoing final editing at that time. 

These components, including the list of 

additional generic data requirements, 

summary of labeling changes, 

appendices, and other relevant 

information, have been added to the 

ODM IRED document. In addition, 

subsequent to signature, EPA identified 

several minor errors and ambiguities in 

the document. These additions or 

changes do not alter the conclusions 

documented in the 2002 ODM IRED. 

Label language and use parameters for 

use of ODM on lettuce were altered 

based on submission of additional 

information that affected the risk 

conclusions for this use. Label changes 

are described in detail in the ‘‘Label 

Changes Summary Table’’ in section 

V.D. of the ODM IRED and in the 

‘‘Amendment to the 2002 Oxydemetonmethyl IRED,’’ which are included in 

the public docket for ODM. 

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, ODM was 

reviewed through the full 6-Phase 

public participation process. Through 

this process, EPA worked extensively 

with stakeholders and the public to 

reach the regulatory decisions for ODM. 

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. 

Since all issues related to this pesticide 

were resolved through consultations 

with stakeholders before issuing the 

ODM IRED Amendment, the Agency is 

issuing the ODM IRED and ODM IRED 

Amendment without a comment period. 

Decisions presented in this IRED may be 

supplemented by further risk mitigation 

measures when EPA concludes its 

cumulative assessment of the 

organophosphate pesticides. 

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 enduse products and either reregistering 

products or taking other ‘‘appropriate 

regulatory action.’’

Section 408(q) of the FFDCA, 21 

U.S.C. 346a(q), requires EPA to review 

tolerances and exemptions for pesticide 

residues in effect as of August 2, 1996, 

to determine whether the tolerance or 

exemption meets the requirements of 

section 408(b)(2) or (c)(2) of the FFDCA. 

This review is to be completed by 

August 3, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 

29, 2005 (70 FR 51042), EPA solicited 

comment on the Agency’s completed 

2005 annual review and pending 2006 

annual reviews of existing effluent 

limitations guidelines and pretreatment 

standards under CWA sections 301(d), 

304(b), 304(g), and 307(b), and the 

Preliminary 2006 Effluent Guidelines 

Program Plan under CWA section 

304(m). EPA also opened a second 

comment period on the draft Strategy 

for National Clean Water Industrial 

Regulations (‘‘draft Strategy’’) (see 67 FR 

71165, November 29, 2002). The August 

29, 2005 notice describes: (1) The 

Agency’s 2005 annual review of existing 

effluent limitations guidelines and 

pretreatment standards under the Clean 

Water Act (CWA) sections 301(d), 

304(b), 304(g), and 307(b); (2) EPA’s 

review of indirect dischargers without 

categorical pretreatment standards to 

identify potential new categories for 

pretreatment standards under CWA 

sections 304(g) and 307(b); and (3) the 

preliminary 2006 effluent guidelines 

program plan under CWA section 

304(m) (‘‘Plan’’). EPA anticipates 

completing the final 2006 Plan by 

August 2006. As required by CWA 

section 304(m), the final Plan will: (1) 

Present a schedule for EPA’s annual 

review of existing effluent guidelines 

under CWA section 304(b) and a 

schedule for any effluent guidelines 

revisions; and (2) identify industries for 

which EPA has not promulgated 

effluent guidelines but may decide to do 

so through rulemaking and a schedule 

for these rulemakings. 

The original comment deadline was 

October 28, 2005. Numerous 

stakeholders have requested an 

extension to the comment period in 

order to adequately understand and 

provide comments. Additionally, one 

commenter requested more time due to 

the difficulty of coordinating with Gulf 

Coast facilities that were recently 

incapacitated by hurricanes Rita and 

Katrina. This action extends the 

comment period for 30 days. 

Dated: October 20, 2005.

Assistant Administrator for Water.
