SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this action apply to me?

    You may be potentially affected by this action if you are an 
agricultural producer, food manufacturer, or pesticide manufacturer. 
The following list of North American Industrial Classification System 
(NAICS) codes is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a 
guide to help readers determine whether this document applies to them. 
Potentially affected entities may include:
     Crop production (NAICS code 111).
     Animal production (NAICS code 112).
     Food manufacturing (NAICS code 311).
     Pesticide manufacturing (NAICS code 32532).

B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through 
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of the 
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or 
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as 
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the 
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as 
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information 
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket. 
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with 
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When preparing and submitting 
your comments, see the commenting tips at http://www.epa.gov/dockets/comments.html.
    3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to achieve environmental 
justice, the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of any group, 
including minority and/or low-income populations, in the development, 
implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and 
policies. To help address potential environmental justice issues, the 
Agency seeks information on any groups or segments of the population 
who, as a result of their location, cultural practices, or other 
factors, may have atypical or disproportionately high and adverse human 
health impacts or environmental effects from exposure to the pesticides 
discussed in this document, compared to the general population.

II. What action is the Agency taking?

    EPA is announcing receipt of a pesticide petition filed under 
section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 
U.S.C. 346a, requesting the establishment or modification of 
regulations in 40 CFR part 174 and/or part 180 for residues of 
pesticide chemicals in or on various food commodities. The Agency is 
taking public comment on the request before responding to the 
petitioner. EPA is not proposing any particular action at this time. 
EPA has determined that the pesticide petition described in this 
document contains data or information prescribed in FFDCA section 
408(d)(2), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(2); however, EPA has not fully evaluated 
the sufficiency of the submitted data at this time or whether the data 
supports granting of the pesticide petition. After considering the 
public comments, EPA intends to evaluate whether and what action may be 
warranted. Additional data may be needed before EPA can make a final 
determination on this pesticide petition.
    Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a summary of the petition that is the 
subject of this document, prepared by the petitioner, is included in a 
docket EPA has created for this rulemaking. The docket for this 
petition is available at http://www.regulations.gov.
    As specified in FFDCA section 408(d)(3), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), EPA 
is publishing notice of the petition so that the public has an 
opportunity to comment on this request for the establishment or 
modification of regulations for residues of pesticides in or on food 
commodities. Further information on the petition may be obtained 
through the petition summary referenced in this unit.

morama bean, dry seed at 0.5 ppm; sword bean, dry seed at 0.5 ppm; 
winged pea, dry seed at 0.5 ppm; velvet bean, seed, dry seed at 0.5 
ppm; vegetable soybean, dry seed at 0.5 ppm; field pea, dry seed at 0.5 
ppm; dry pea, dry seed at 0.5 ppm; green pea, dry seed at 0.5 ppm; 
garden pea, dry seed at 0.5 ppm; chickpea, dry seed at 0.5 ppm; lentil, 
dry seed at 0.5 ppm; grass-pea, dry seed at 0.5 ppm; pigeon pea, dry 
seed at 0.5 ppm. Also, tolerances with regional registrations are 
requested for residues of the insecticide, methoxyfenozide, including 
its metabolites and degradates. Compliance with the tolerance levels is 
to be determined by measuring only methoxyfenozide (3-methoxy-2-
methylbenzoic acid 2-(3,5-dimethylbenzoyl)-2-(1,1-dimethylethyl) 
hydrazide) in or on the commodities: Rice, grain at 30 ppm; rice, hulls 
at 55 ppm; rice, straw at 30 ppm. Adequate methods are available for 
tolerance enforcement in primary crops and animal commodities. Contact: 
RD.
    5. PP 0E8848. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2019-0233). Interregional Research 
Project No. 4 (IR-4), IR-4 Project Headquarters, Rutgers, The State 
University of NJ, 500 College Road East, Suite 201 W, Princeton, NJ 
08540, requests to amend 40 CFR part 180 by establishing tolerances for 
residues of 2,4-D in or on the raw agricultural commodity Sesame, seed 
at 0.05 ppm. An adequate GC/ECD enforcement method for plants 
(designated as EN-CAS Method No. ENC-2/93) which has been independently 
validated. Adequate radiovalidation data have been submitted and 
evaluated for the enforcement method using samples from the wheat 
metabolism study. Contact: RD.

Project No. 4 (IR-4), IR-4 Project Headquarters, Rutgers, The State 
University of NJ, 500 College Road East, Suite 201 W, Princeton, NJ 
08540, requests to amend 40 CFR part 180 by establishing tolerances for 
residues of 2,4-D in or on the raw agricultural commodities: 
Wheatgrass, intermediate, bran at 4 ppm; wheatgrass, intermediate, 
grain at 2 ppm; wheatgrass, intermediate, straw at 50 ppm; and 
wheatgrass, intermediate, forage at 25 ppm. An adequate GC/ECD 
enforcement method for plants (designated as EN-CAS Method No. ENC-2/
93) which has been independently validated. Adequate radiovalidation 
data have been submitted and evaluated for the enforcement method using 
samples from the wheat metabolism study. Contact: RD.
    7. PP 9E8819. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2020-0050). BASF Corporation, 26 Davis 
Drive, P.O. Box 13528, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709 requests to 
establish a tolerance in 40 CFR part 180.589 for residues of the 
fungicide boscalid in or on tea at 80 ppm. The gas chromatography using 
mass spectrometry (GC/MS) or liquid chromatography in tandem mass 
spectrometry detection (LC/MS/MS) method are used to measure and 
evaluate the chemical boscalid. Contact: RD.
