II. Did EPA Approve the Application?
The Agency approved the applications after considering all required
data on risks associated with the proposed uses of Colletotrichum
gloeosporioides f.sp. aeschynomene, and Sorbitol Octanoate, 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 Colletotrichum gloeosporioides f.sp. aeschynomene, and
Sorbitol Octanoate, when used in accordance with widespread and
commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable
adverse effects to the environment.
