II. Background 

A. What Action is the Agency Taking? 

1. Denial of Pesticide Petition 2E6491 

(N-Acyl Sarcosines and Sodium N-Acyl 

Sarcosinates). 

In December 1999, EPA established 

exemptions from the requirement of a 

tolerance at 40 CFR 180.1207 for 

residues of certain N-acyl sarcosines 

and sodium N-acyl sarcosinates when 

used as inert ingredients (surfactants) at 

levels not to exceed 10% in pesticide 

formulations containing glyphosate (64 

FR 68044; December 6, 1999). The 

specific N-acyl sarcosines and sodium 

N-acyl sarcosinates were: N-oleoyl 

sarcosine (CAS 110-25-8); N-stearoyl 

sarcosine (CAS 142-48-3); N-lauroyl 

sarcosine (CAS 97-78-9); N-myristoyl 

sarcosine (CAS 52558-73-3); N-cocoyl 

sarcosine mixture (CAS 68411-97-2); Nmethyl-N-(1-oxo-9-octodecenyl) glycine 

(CAS 3624-77-9); N-methyl-N-(1- 

oxooctadecyl) glycine (CAS 5136-55-0); 

N-methyl-N-(1-oxododecyl) glycine 

(CAS 137-16-6); N-methyl-N-(1- 

oxotetradecyl glycine (CAS 30364-51-3); 

and N-cocoyl sarcosine sodium salt 

mixture (CAS 61791-59-1). 

In the Federal Register of September 

18, 2002 (67 FR 58799) (FRL–7194–5), 

EPA issued a notice pursuant to section 

408 of FFDCA, 21 U.S.C. 346a, as 

amended by FQPA (Public Law 104–

170), announcing the filing of a 

pesticide petition (PP 2E6491) by 

Hampshire Chemical Corporation. The 

petition requested that 40 CFR 

180.1207, which pertains to the N-acyl 

sarcosines and sodium N-acyl 

sarcosinates listed in the previous 

paragraph, be amended to add pesticide 

formulations containing the active 

ingredients 2,4-D, atrazine, dicamba, 

and glufosinate ammonium; the existing 

tolerance exemption is limited to 

formulations containing glyphosate. No 

comments were received in response to 

the notice of filing. 

In evaluating the petitioner’s request 

(PP 2E6491), EPA determined that 

significant and important data were 

missing from the petitioner’s 

submission. First, certain data 

submitted by the petitioner (e.g., acute, 

subchronic, and chronic toxicity) are 

inadequate and not acceptable. The data 

are unpublished, and no basic quality 

information (in compliance with Good 

Laboratory Practices) is provided, 

including when the studies were 

conducted. Second, the submitter did 

not provide adequate developmental 

and reproductive toxicity data. In 

making the FFDCA safety 

determination, EPA considers the 

validity, completeness, and reliability of 

the data that are available to the Agency 

(FFDCA sections 408(b)(2)(D) and 

408(c)(2)(B)), and the available 

information concerning the special 

susceptibility of infants and children. If 

reproductive and developmental 

toxicity data are not available, or if such 

information is not available in the open 

literature, screening level reproductive 

and developmental toxicity data may be 

acceptable for assessing the special 

susceptibility of infants and children. 

For the sarcosines, EPA communicated 

with the petitioner regarding the 

developmental/reproductive toxicity 

data gap; no further information or data 

were received. 

Because the safety finding, as required 

under FFDCA section 408(c)(2), could 

not be made due to insufficient data, 

EPA is denying the petitioner’s request 

to amend the existing tolerance 

exemption for the N-acyl sarcosines and 

sodium N-acyl sarcosinates. 

2. Denial of Pesticide Petitions 

7E4810 (Crezasin) and 7E4811 (Mival). 

In the Federal Register of December 2, 

1997 (62 FR 63940) (FRL–5751–9), EPA 

issued two notices pursuant to section 

408 of FFDCA, 21 U.S.C. 346a 

announcing the filing of pesticide 

petitions (PP 7E4810 and PP 7E4811) by 

Globe Tech Industries Corporation. The 

petitions requested that EPA establish 

inert ingredient tolerance exemptions 

under 40 CFR 180.920 for the use of 

Crezasin (PP 7E4810) and Mival (PP 

7E4811) in pesticide formulations used 

on growing crops only. 

In evaluating the petitioner’s requests, 

EPA determined that significant and 

important data in the petitioner’s 

submission were inadequate and not 

acceptable, including the residue 

chemistry and the description of the 

chemicals’ product chemistry data. EPA 

has been unable to contact or locate the 

petitioner, Globe Tech Corporation, 

about the data deficiencies. In making 

the FFDCA safety determination, EPA 

considers the validity, completeness, 

and reliability of the data that are 

available to the Agency (FFDCA section 

408(b)(2)(D) and 408(c)(2)(B)). Because 

the safety finding required under 

FFDCA section 408(b)(2) could not be 


jlentini on PROD1PC65 with RULES
7474 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 27 / Friday, February 8, 2008 / Rules and Regulations 

made due to insufficient data, EPA is 

denying the petitioner’s request to 

establish inert ingredient tolerance 

exemptions under 40 CFR 180.920 for 

the use of Crezasin (PP 7E4810) and 

Mival (PP 7E4811). 

B. What is the Agency’s Authority for 

Taking this Action? 

Section 408(c)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA 

allows EPA to establish an exemption 

from the requirement for a tolerance (the 

legal limit for a pesticide chemical 

residue in or on a food) only if EPA 

determines that the exemption is ‘‘safe.’’

Section 408(c)(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.’’

III. Objections and Hearing Requests 

Under section 408(g) of FFDCA, as 

amended by FQPA, any person may file 

an objection to any aspect of this 

regulation and may also request a 

hearing on those objections. The EPA 

procedural regulations which govern the 

submission of objections and requests 

for hearings appear in 40 CFR part 178. 

Although the procedures in those 

regulations require some modification to 

reflect the amendments made to FFDCA 

by FQPA, EPA will continue to use 

those procedures, with appropriate 

adjustments, until the necessary 

modifications can be made. The new 

section 408(g) provides essentially the 

same process for persons to ‘‘object’’ to 

a regulation for an exemption from the 

requirement of a tolerance issued by 

EPA under new section 408(d), as was 

provided in the old FFDCA sections 408 

and 409. However, the period for filing 

objections is now 60 days, rather than 

30 days. 

A. What Do I Need to Do to File an 

Objection or Request a Hearing? 

You must file your objection or 

request a hearing on this regulation in 

accordance with the instructions 

provided in this unit and in 40 CFR part 

178. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, 

you must identify docket ID number 

EPA–HQ–OPP–2002–0201 in the subject 

line on the first page of your 

submission. All requests must be in 

writing, and must be mailed or 

delivered to the Hearing Clerk on or 

before April 8, 2008. 

1. Filing the request. Your objection 

must specify the specific provisions in 

the regulation that you object to, and the 

grounds for the objections (40 CFR 

178.25). If a hearing is requested, the 

objections must include a statement of 

the factual issues(s) on which a hearing 

is requested, the requestor’s contentions 

on such issues, and a summary of any 

evidence relied upon by the objector (40 

CFR 178.27). Information submitted in 

connection with an objection or hearing 

request may be claimed confidential by 

marking any part or all of that 

information as CBI. Information so 

marked will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. A copy of the 

information that does not contain CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public record. Information not marked 

confidential may be disclosed publicly 

by EPA without prior notice. Mail your 

written request to: Office of the Hearing 

Clerk (1900L), Environmental Protection 

Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW., 

Washington, DC 20460-0001. You may 

also deliver your request to the Office of 

the Hearing Clerk in Suite 350, 1099 

14th St., NW., Washington, DC 20005. 

The Office of the Hearing Clerk is open 

from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through 

Friday, excluding legal holidays. The 

telephone number for the Office of the 

Hearing Clerk is (202) 564-6255. 

2. Copies for the Docket. In addition 

to filing an objection or hearing request 

with the Hearing Clerk as described in 

Unit III.A., you should also send a copy 

of your request to Public Information 

and Records Integrity Branch (PIRIB) for 

its inclusion in the official record that 

is described in ADDRESSES. Mail your 

copies, identified by docket ID number 

EPA–HQ–OPP–2002–0201, to: Public 

Information and Records Integrity 

Branch, Information Resources and 

Services Division (7502P), Office of 

Pesticide Programs, Environmental 

Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania 

Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460. In 

person or by courier, bring a copy to the 

location of PIRIB described in 

ADDRESSES. You may also send an 

electronic copy of your request via email to: opp-docket@epa.gov. Please use 

an ASCII file format and avoid the use 

of special characters and any form of 

encryption. Copies of electronic 

objections and hearing requests will also 

be accepted on disks in WordPerfect 

6.1/8.0 or ASCII file format. Do not 

include any CBI in your electronic copy. 

You may also submit an electronic copy 

of your request at many Federal 

Depository Libraries. 

B. When Will the Agency Grant a 

Request for a Hearing? 

A request for a hearing will be granted 

if the Administrator determines that the 

material submitted shows the following: 

There is a genuine and substantial issue 

of fact; there is a reasonable possibility 

that available evidence identified by the 

requestor would, if established resolve 

one or more of such issues in favor of 

the requestor, taking into account 

uncontested claims or facts to the 

contrary; and resolution of the factual 

issues(s) in the manner sought by the 

requestor would be adequate to justify 

the action requested (40 CFR 178.32). 

IV. Statutory and Executive Order 

Reviews 

This final rule denies a request to 

amend an exemption from tolerance 

under FFDCA section 408(d). 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 rule has been exempted 

from review under Executive Order 

12866 due to its lack of significance, 

this rule is not subject to Executive 

Order 13211, Actions Concerning 

Regulations That Significantly Affect 

Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (66 

FR 28355, May 22, 2001). This final rule 

does not contain any information 

collections subject to OMB approval 

under the Paperwork Reduction Act 

(PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., or impose 

any enforceable duty or contain any 

unfunded mandate as described under 

Title II of the Unfunded Mandates 

Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public 

Law 104-4). 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); or OMB review or any Agency 

action under Executive Order 13045, 

entitled Protection of Children from 

Environmental Health Risks and Safety 

Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). 

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 of 1995 

(NTTAA), Public Law 104-113, section 

12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note). 

Since tolerances and exemptions that 

are established on the basis of a petition 

under FFDCA section 408(d), such as 

the tolerance 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. In addition, the 

Agency has determined that this action 

will not have a substantial direct effect 

on States, on the relationship between 

the national government and the States, 

or on the distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 


jlentini on PROD1PC65 with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 27 / Friday, February 8, 2008 / Rules and Regulations 7475 

levels of government, as specified in 

Executive Order 13132, entitled 

Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10, 

1999). 

Executive Order 13132 requires EPA 

to develop an accountable process to 

ensure ‘‘meaningful and timely input by 

state and local officials in the 

development of regulatory policies that 

have federalism implications.’’ ‘‘Policies 

that have federalism implications’’ is 

defined in the Executive order to 

include regulations that have 

‘‘substantial direct effects on the States, 

on the relationship between the national 

government and the States, or on the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government.’’ This final rule 

directly regulates growers, food 

processors, food handlers and food 

retailers, not States. This action does not 

alter the relationships or distribution of 

power and responsibilities established 

by Congress in the preemption 

provisions of FFDCA section 408(n)(4). 

For these same reasons, the Agency has 

determined that this rule does not have 

any ‘‘tribal implications’’ as described 

in Executive Order 13175, entitled 

Consultation and Coordination with 

Indian Tribal Governments (59 FR 

22951, November 6, 2000). Executive 

Order 13175, requires EPA to develop 

an accountable process to ensure 

‘‘meaningful and timely input by tribal 

officials in the development of 

regulatory policies that have tribal 

implications.’’ ‘‘Policies that have tribal 

implications’’ is defined in the 

Executive order to include regulations 

that have ‘‘substantial direct effects on 

one or more Indian tribes, on the 

relationship between the Federal 

Government and the Indian tribes, or on 

the distribution of power and 

responsibilities between the Federal 

Government and Indian tribes.’’ This 

rule will not have substantial direct 

effects on tribal governments, on the 

relationship between the Federal 

Government and Indian tribes, or on the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities between the Federal 

Government and Indian tribes, as 

specified in Executive Order 13175. 

Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not 

apply to this rule. 

V. Congressional Review Act 

The Congressional Review Act, 5 

U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally provides 

that before a rule may take effect, the 

agency promulgating the rule must 

submit a rule report to each House of 

the Congress and to the Comptroller 

General of the United States. 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 this final rule in the 

Federal Register. This final rule is not 

a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5 U.S.C. 

804(2).

A. Executive Order 12866 

The General Services Administration

for the purposes of Executive Order 

12866 of September 30, 1993.

This final rule is not required to be 

published in the Federal Register for 

notice and comment. Therefore, the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act does not 

apply.

not apply because this final rule does 

not impose recordkeeping or 

information collection requirements, or 

the collection of information from

public which require the approval of 

OMB under 44 U.S.C. 3501–3520.
