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 Start Printed Page 9736issues, 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.
PP 8F8659. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2018-0260). Monsanto Company, 1300 I St. NW, Suite 450 East, Washington, DC 20052, requests to amend the tolerance in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of the herbicide dicamba in or on corn, grain at 0.1 parts per million (ppm); corn, stover at 20 ppm; and corn, forage at 6 ppm. The gas chromatography/electron capture detector (GC/ECD) is used to measure and evaluate the chemical dicamba. Contact: RD.
B. New Tolerance Exemptions From Inerts (Except PIPS)
PP IN-11260. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2018-0845). BASF Corporation, 26 Davis Drive, Research Triangle Park, NC 27709, requests to establish an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance in 40 CFR part 180.960 for residues of formaldehyde, reaction products with melamine (CAS Reg. No. 94645-56-4); 1,3,5-Triazine-2,4,6-triamine, polymer with formaldehyde (CAS Reg. No. 9003-08-1); Formaldehyde, reaction products with melamine and methanol (CAS Reg. No. 94645-53-1); and 1,3,5-Triazine-2,4,6-triamine, polymer with formaldehyde, methylated (CAS Reg. No. 68002-20-0) collectively identified as “Melamine Formaldehyde Polycondensate Resin” when used as a pesticide inert ingredient in pesticide formulations. The petitioner believes no analytical method is needed because it is not required for an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance. Contact: RD.
C. Notice of Filing—New Tolerance Exemptions for PIPS
