II. Background
EPA is conducting its registration review of the chemicals listed in the Table 1 of Unit I
pursuant to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) section 3(g) (7
U.S.C. 136a(g)) and the Procedural Regulations for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 155,
subpart C. FIFRA section 3(g) provides, among other things, that pesticide registrations are to be
reviewed every 15 years. Consistent with 40 CFR 155.57, in its final registration review
decision, EPA will ultimately determine whether a pesticide continues to meet the registration
standard in FIFRA section 3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). As part of the registration review
process, the Agency has completed a proposed interim or proposed decision for each of the
pesticides listed in Table 1 of Unit I.
The registration review docket for a pesticide includes documents related to the
registration review case. Among other things, these documents describe EPA’s rationales for
conducting additional risk assessments for the registration review of the pesticides included in

Table 1 of Unit I, as well as the Agency’s subsequent risk findings and consideration of possible
risk mitigation measures. The proposed interim and proposed registration review decisions are
supported by the rationales included in those documents.
Consistent with 40 CFR 155.58(a), EPA provides for at least a 60-day public comment
period on proposed interim and proposed registration review decisions. This comment period is
intended to provide an opportunity for public input and a mechanism for initiating any necessary
amendments to the proposed decision.

III. What Action is the Agency Taking?
This notice is directed to the public in general and may be of interest to a wide range of
stakeholders including environmental, human health, farm worker, and agricultural advocates;
the chemical industry; pesticide users; and members of the public interested in the sale,
distribution, or use of pesticides. Since others also may be interested, the Agency has not
attempted to describe all the specific entities that may be affected by this action. If you have any
questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the Chemical
Review Manager for the pesticide of interest identified in Table 1 of Unit I. In submitting a
comment to EPA, please consider the following:
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through regulations.gov or
email. Clearly mark the part or all the information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information
on 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: https://www.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets.
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.
All comments should be submitted using the methods in ADDRESSES and must be
received by EPA on or before the closing date. These comments will become part of the docket
for the pesticides included in Table 1 in Unit I. The Agency will consider all comments received
by the closing date and may respond to comments in a “Response to Comments Memorandum”
in the docket and/or in any subsequent interim or final registration review decision, as
appropriate.
