dichloroethenyl)-2,2 dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate at 0.100%. For 
household use.
    The Agency has considered all required data on risks associated 
with the proposed use of imiprothrin and cypermethrin, and information 
on social, economic, and environmental benefits to be derived from use. 
Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of the chemical 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 
imiprothrin and cypermethrin when used in accordance with widespread 
and commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable 
adverse effects to the environment.
    More detailed information on these registrations are contained in 
the EPA Pesticide Fact Sheet on imiprothrin and cypermethrin.
    A copy of the fact sheet, which provides a summary description of 
these pesticides, use patterns and formulations, science findings, and 
the Agency's regulatory position and rationale, may be obtained from 
the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), 5285 Port Royal 
Road, Springfield, VA 22161.
    In accordance with section 3(c)(2) of FIFRA, a copy of the approved 
label, the list of data references, the data and other scientific 
information used to support registration, except for material 
specifically protected by section 10 of FIFRA, are available for public
