days for minor agricultural uses) for

public comment. Thereafter, the

Administrator may approve such a

request. EPA may waive the comment

period if requested to do so by the

registrant, or if continued use would

pose an unreasonable adverse effect on

the environment.

II. Intent to Delete Uses

This notice announces receipt by the

Agency of an application by DuPont

Agricultural Products, Walker’s Mill,

Barley Mill Plaza, P.O. Box 80038,

Wilmington, DE 19880–0038, to delete

certain outdoor and all indoor non-food

uses for the two methomyl registrations

listed below in Table 1. These

registrations are identified by

registration number, product names,

active ingredient, and the specific uses

deleted. Users of these products who

desire the continuation of the subject

uses may wish to contact the registrant

within 30 days after the publication of

this notice, to discuss withdrawal of the

applications for deletions or possible

transfer of the registrations.

The registrant is requesting, and EPA

is providing a 30–day comment period

because the Agency, has been informed

by the registrant that it contacted all

registrants of methomyl fly baits last

year of its decision not to support that

use, and has not been selling the

product to fly bait formulators since

December 31, 1993. Also, because the

deletions are being requested in accord

with an EPA request that the registrant

propose risk mitigation measures to

address the Agency’s methomyl worker

safety concerns, the Agency considers a

30-day comment period to be

appropriate in length.

Rohm and Haas Co.; Approval of

Pesticide Product Registrations

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: This notice announces

Agency approval of applications

submitted by Rohm and Haas Company,

to conditionally register the pesticide

products Enable 2F, RH-7592 Technical,

and Indar WSP containing a new active

ingredient not included in any

previously registered products pursuant

to the provisions of section 3(c)(7)(C) of

the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and

Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: By

mail: Cynthia Giles-Parker, Product

Manager (PM) 22, Registration Division

(7505C), Office of Pesticide Programs,

401 M St., SW., Washington, DC 20460.

Office location and telephone number:

Rm. 229, CM #2, Environmental

Protection Agency, 1921 Jefferson Davis

Hwy, Arlington, VA 22202, (703–305–

5540).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA

issued a notice, published in the

Federal Register of February 5, 1992 (57

FR 4450), which announced that Rohm

and Haas Co., 100 Independence Mall

West, Philadelphia, PA 19106, had

submitted applications to conditionally

register the pesticide products Indar 2F

(now known as Enable 2F) and RH-7592

Technical (EPA File Symbols 707–EGR

and 707–EGN), containing the active

ingredient fenbuconazole alpha-[2-(4-

chlorophenyl)ethyl]-alpha-phenyl-1H1,2,4-triazole-1-propanenitrile at 22.8

and 98.3 percent respectively, an active

ingredient not included in any

previously registered products.

EPA later received an application

from the company to register the

product Indar 75WSP (EPA File Symbol

707–EGO), containing the active

ingredient fenbuconazole at 75 percent.

However, since the notice of receipt of

application was not published in

Federal Register, as required by FIFRA,

as amended, interested parties may

submit written comments within 30

days from the date of publication of this

notice for this product only.

The applications were approved on

February 15, 1995, for one technical and

two end-use products listed below:

1. RH-7592 Technical for formulation

and manufacture of fungicides only

(EPA Registration Number 707–230).

2. Enable 2F for disease control on

pecans (EPA Registration Number 707–

231).

3. Indar 75WSP for use to to control

diseases on apricots, cherries,

nectarines, and peaches (EPA

Registration Number 707–239).

A conditional registration may be

granted under section 3(c)(7)(C) of

FIFRA for a new active ingredient where

certain data are lacking, on condition

that such data are received by the end

of the conditional registration period

and do not meet or exceed the risk

criteria set forth in 40 CFR 154.7; that

use of the pesticide during the

conditional registration period will not

cause unreasonable adverse effects; and

that use of the pesticide is in the public

interest.

The Agency has considered the

available data on the risks associated

with the proposed use of fenbuconazole,

and information on social, economic,

and environmental benefits to be

derived from such use. Specifically, the

Agency has considered the nature and

its pattern of use, application methods

and rates, and level and extent of

potential exposure. Based on these

reviews, the Agency was able to make

basic health and safety determinations

which show that use of fenbuconazole

during the period of conditional

registration will not cause any

unreasonable adverse effect on the

environment, and that use of the

pesticide is, in the public interest.

These products are conditionally

registered in accordance with FIFRA

section 3(c)(7)(C). If the conditions are

not complied with the registrations will

be subject to cancellation in accordance

with FIFRA section 6(e). The terms of

the conditional registrations will require

Rohm and Haas Company to submit the

following studies:

1. Fish Life Cycle (Guideline

Reference Number 72–5).

2. Growth and Reproduction of

Aquatic Plants - Tier 2 (123–2).

3. Droplet Size Spectrum (201–1).

4. Drift Field Evaluation (202–1).

5. Storage Stability of Fenbuconazole

Reflecting a 49-month Storage Period

(171–4(e]).

Consistent with section 3(c)(7)(C), the

Agency has determined that these

conditional registrations are in the

public interest. Use of the pesticides are

of significance to the user community,

and appropriate labeling, use directions,

and other measures have been taken to

ensure that use of the pesticides will not

result in unreasonable adverse effects to

man and the environment.

More detailed information on these

conditional registrations is contained in

an EPA Pesticide Fact Sheet on

fenbuconazole.

A copy of this fact sheet, which

provides a summary description of the

chemical, use patterns and

formulations, science findings, and the

Agency’s regulatory position and

rationale, may be obtained from the

National Technical Information Service

(NTIS), 5285 Port Royal Road,

Springfield, VA 22161.

In accordance with section 3(c)(2) of

FIFRA, a copy of the approved label and

the list of data references used to

support registration are available for

public inspection in the office of the

Product Manager. The data and other

scientific information used to support

registration, except for material

specifically protected by section 10 of

FIFRA, are available for public

inspection in the Public Response and

Program Resources Branch, Field

Operations Division (7506C), Office of

Pesticide Programs, Environmental

Protection Agency, Rm. 1132, CM #2,
