SUMMARY: This notice announces the availability of EPA's final

pesticide continues to satisfy the statutory standard for registration,

Through this program, EPA is ensuring that each pesticide's 
registration is based on current scientific and other knowledge, 
including its effects on human health and the environment.

    FIFRA Section 3(g) and 40 CFR 155.58(c) provide authority for this 
action. A registration review decision is the Agency's determination 
whether a pesticide meets, or does not meet the standard for 
registration in FIFRA. Proposed registration review decisions were 
posted to the docket for the above cases and public comments were 
requested. During the respective 60 day comment periods, no public 
comments were received for the Trichoderma species and Linalool cases. 
The final decisions that are subject to this notice continue to be 
supported by the rationales included in the proposed registration 
review decisions for each case. The documents in the subject 
registration review dockets describe the Agency's rationale for issuing 
these final decisions for Trichoderma species and Linalool cases. No 
risk mitigation measures are required or specified in the final 
decisions for these registration review cases and no labeling changes 
are required as a result of these final decisions.
