                    1.                     *2-Methyl-1-butanol*.                     *Docket number*: EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-0125.                     *Description of new active ingredient*: EPA received an application from Bull Run Scientific, VBT, Beaufont Springs Dr., Suite 300, Richmond, VA 23225, to register a pesticide product (EPA File Symbol 84565-T) containing the active ingredient, 2-methyl-1-butanol. At the time of submission of the application for registration, this active ingredient was not contained in any pesticide products registered with the Agency.                

*Regulatory conclusions*: The application was approved on February 3, 2010, for Disposable Bull Run Yellowjacket Trap E (EPA Registration Number 84565-7) for use as an attractant in traps intended to capture hornets and wasps. The Agency approved the application considering data on risks associated with the proposed use of 2-methyl-1-butanol, and information on social, economic, and environmental benefits to be derived from use. Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of the biochemical pesticide 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 that show use of 2-methyl-1-butanol, when used in accordance with widespread and commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable adverse effects on the environment.                

*Missing data & conditions for submission*: All data requirements have been satisfied, and this pesticide product has been granted an unconditional registration.

(During the application process, the active ingredient name was subsequently changed to Terpene Constituents of the Extract of                     *Chenopodium ambrosioides*                     near                     *ambrosioides*                     (ECANA) as Synthetically Manufactured to more accurately describe its synthetic origin.) At the time of submission of the application for registration, this active ingredient was not contained in any pesticide products registered with the Agency.                

*Regulatory conclusions*: The application was approved on June 30, 2010 for QRD 452 (EPA Registration Number 69592-25) for use as an insecticide/acaracide. The Agency approved the application considering data on risks associated with the proposed use of Terpene Constituents of ECANA as Synthetically Manufactured, and information on social, economic,                           ( print page 52740)                        and environmental benefits to be derived from use. Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of the biochemical pesticide 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 that show use of Terpene Constituents of ECANA as Synthetically Manufactured, when used in accordance with widespread and commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable adverse effects on the environment.                

*Missing data & conditions for submission*: QRD 452, EPA Registration Number 69592-22, was conditionally registered. 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 Terpene Constituents of ECANA as Synthetically Manufactured, 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 Terpene Constituents of ECANA as Synthetically Manufactured 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.                

Consistent with section 3(c)(7)(C) of FIFRA, 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.

All data requirements, except one product chemistry requirement, have been fully satisfied; and this pesticide product has been granted a conditional registration. The Agency has required submission of an additional Preliminary Analysis per 40 CFR 158.2030 (OPPTS Guideline 830.1700) by June 21, 2011 for QRD 452 (EPA Registration Number 69592-25).

Homobrassinolide*.                     *Docket number*: EPA-HQ-OPP-2007-1187.                     *Description of new active ingredient*: EPA received an application from Repar Corporation of P.O. Box 4321, Silver Spring, MD 20914, to register a pesticide product (EPA File Symbol 69361-17) containing the active ingredient, homobrassinolide. At the time of submission of the                           ( print page 52741)                        application for registration, this active ingredient was not contained in any pesticide products registered with the Agency.                

*Regulatory conclusions*: The application was approved on June 14, 2010, for Homobrassinolide Technical (EPA Registration Number 69361-17) for manufacturing or formulating use only.                

*Missing data & conditions for submission*: All data requirements have been satisfied, and this pesticide product has been granted an unconditional registration.                

*Response to comments*: EPA published a notice of receipt in the                     **Federal Register**                     of January 16, 2008 (73 FR 2915) (FRL-8346-7), which announced that Repar Corporation had submitted an application to register a pesticide product containing the new active ingredient, homobrassinolide, for use on all food commodities. Moreover, in order to increase the transparency of the Agency's pesticide registration decisions, the Agency began to implement a public participation process for certain registration actions (i.e., new active ingredients, first food uses, first outdoor uses, first residential uses, and other actions of significant interest to the public) on October 1, 2009. As this application was for a pesticide product containing a new active ingredient, the proposed decision, risk assessment, and draft label associated with this pesticide product were added to the docket prior to registration to allow a meaningful opportunity for the public to provide substantive comments. The start of the 30-day public participation comment period was announced on the Agency's web site                     *http://www.epa.gov/​pesticides/​regulating/​registration-public-involvement.html*                     on April 30, 2010. There were no substantive comments received in response to the notice of receipt or during the 30-day public participation process occurring immediately prior to the final registration decision.                     *Contact*: John Fournier, (703) 308-0169,                     *fournier.john@epa.gov.*

                    8.                     *Ulocladium oudemansii*                     (U3 Strain).                     *Docket number*: EPA-HQ-OPP-2010-0553.                     *Description of new active ingredient*: EPA received applications from Botry-Zen, Ltd., 21 Willis St., P.O. Box 5664, Dunedin, New Zealand, to register pesticide products (EPA File Symbols 75747-R, and 75747-E) containing the active ingredient,                     *Ulocladium oudemansii*                     (U3 Strain). At the time of submission of the applications for registration, this active ingredient was not contained in any pesticide products registered with the Agency.                

*Regulatory conclusions*: The applications were approved on October 19, 2009, for                     *Ulocladium oudemansii*                     Technical (EPA Registration Number 75747-1) for manufacturing or formulating use only and BOTRY-Zen® (EPA Registration Number 75747-2) for use on fruit and vegetable crops and ornamental plants. The Agency approved the applications considering data on risks associated with the proposed use of                     *Ulocladium oudemansii*                     (U3 Strain), and information on social, economic, and environmental benefits to be derived from use. Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of the microbial pesticide 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 that show use of                     *Ulocladium oudemansii*                     (U3 Strain), when used in accordance with widespread and commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable adverse effects on the environment.                

*Missing data & conditions for submission*: All data requirements have been satisfied, and these pesticide products have been granted unconditional registrations.                

*Response to comments*: EPA published a notice of receipt in the                     **Federal Register**                     of October 29, 2008 (73 FR 64325) (FRL-8386-5), which announced that Botry-Zen, Ltd. had submitted applications to register pesticide products containing the new active ingredient,                     *Ulocladium oudemansii*                     (U3 Strain), for use on fruit and vegetable crops and ornamental plants. Moreover, in order to increase the transparency of the Agency's pesticide registration decisions, the Agency began to implement a public participation process for certain registration actions (i.e., new active ingredients, first food uses, first outdoor uses, first residential uses, and other actions of significant interest to the public) on October 1, 2009. As these applications were for pesticide products containing a new active ingredient, the proposed decision, risk assessments, and draft labels associated with these pesticide products were to have been added to the docket prior to registration to allow a meaningful opportunity for the public to provide substantive comments. However, given the Agency finding that                     *Ulocladium oudemansii*                     (U3 strain) has very low toxicity and presents little if any risk to non-target organisms, EPA concluded in October of 2009 that it was in the best interests of the public and the environment to issue the registration for                     *Ulocladium oudemansii*                     (U3 strain) without delay. Therefore, consistent with the Agency's approach for making these registration actions more transparent, EPA issued these two registrations for an initial period of 1 year and, concurrent with such issuance, provided a 30-day public comment period. The start of the 30-day public participation comment period was announced on the Agency's web site                     *http://www.epa.gov/​pesticides/​regulating/​registration-public-involvement.html*                     on October 20, 2009. As there were no comments received in response to the notice of receipt or during the 30-day public participation process occurring concurrently with the final registration decision, the 1 year time-limitation was removed for EPA Registration Number 75747-1 and EPA Registration Number 75747-2 on January 7, 2010.                     *Contact*: Denise Greenway, (703) 308-8263,                     *greenway.denise@epa.gov*.                

                    9.                     *Coat protein gene of plum pox virus also known as the CPG-PPV, or plum pox resistance gene (plum pox viral coat protein gene)*.                     *Docket number*: EPA-HQ-OPP-2010-0554.                     *Description of new active ingredient*: EPA received an application from Interregional Research Project Number 4 (IR-4) of Rutgers University, 500 College Rd. East, Suite 201 W., Princeton, NJ 08540 on behalf of the United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service-Appalachian Fruit Research Station (USDA-ARS-AFRS), 2217 Wiltshire Rd., Kearneysville, WV 25430, to register a pesticide product (EPA File Symbol 11312-I) containing the active ingredient, coat protein gene of plum pox virus. At the time of submission of the application for registration, this active ingredient was not contained in any pesticide products registered with the Agency.                

*Regulatory conclusions*: The application was approved on May 7, 2010 for C5 HoneySweet Plum (EPA Registration Number 11312-8) for resistance to plum pox virus infection. The Agency approved the application considering data on risks associated with the proposed use of the coat protein gene of plum pox virus, and information on social, economic, and environmental benefits to be derived from use. Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of the plant-incorporated protectant 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 showing that the coat protein gene of plum pox virus,                           ( print page 52742)                        when used in accordance with widespread and commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable adverse effects on the environment.                

*Missing data & conditions for submission*: C5 HoneySweet Plum, EPA Registration Number 11312-8, was conditionally registered. 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 the coat protein gene of plum pox virus, 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 the coat protein gene of plum pox virus 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.                

Consistent with section 3(c)(7)(C) of FIFRA, 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.

All data requirements, except one product analysis requirement, have been fully satisfied; and this pesticide product has been granted a 1 year conditional registration, to expire at midnight of May 7, 2011. The Agency has required submission of an Analysis of Samples validation per 40 CFR 158.2120 (OPPTS Guideline 885.1400) by November 7, 2008 for C5 HoneySweet Plum (EPA Registration Number 11312-8).

The start of the 30-day public participation comment period was announced on the Agency's web site                     *http://www.epa.gov/​pesticides/​regulating/​registration-public-involvement.html*                     on January 29, 2010. There were no comments received in response to the notice of receipt or during the 30-day public participation process occurring immediately prior to the final registration decision.                     *Contact*: Driss Benmhend, (703) 308-9525,                     *benmhend.driss@epa.gov.*
