AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is revoking certain tolerances for the fungicides
chloroneb and thiabendazole; the herbicide sulfosate; the defoliant
thidiazuron; the insecticides cypermethrin, methidathion, and
pirimiphos-methyl; and the soil microbiocide nitrapyrin. Also, EPA is
modifying certain tolerances for the fungicides chloroneb and
thiabendazole; the herbicides oxyfluorfen and tebuthiuron; the
defoliants thidiazuron and tribuphos; the insecticides cypermethrin,
methidathion, and pirimiphos-methyl; and the soil microbiocide
nitrapyrin. In addition, EPA is establishing new tolerances for the
fungicides chloroneb and thiabendazole; the herbicide oxyfluorfen; the
defoliants thidiazuron and tribuphos; the insecticides cypermethrin,
methidathion, and pirimiphos-methyl; and the soil microbiocide
nitrapyrin. The regulatory actions finalized in this document are in
follow-up to the Agency's reregistration program under the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), and tolerance
reassessment program under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    In the Federal Register of May 2, 2007 (72 FR 24198) (FRL-8120-3),
EPA issued a proposal to revoke, remove, modify, and establish certain
specific tolerances for residues of the fungicides chloroneb and
thiabendazole; the herbicides oxyfluorfen, sulfosate, and tebuthiuron;
the defoliants thidiazuron and tribuphos; the insecticides
cypermethrin, methidathion, and pirimiphos-methyl; and the soil
microbiocide nitrapyrin. Also, the proposal of May 2, 2007 (72 FR
24198) provided a 60-day comment period which invited public comment
for consideration and for support of tolerance retention under the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) standards.
    In this final rule, EPA is revoking, removing, modifying, and
establishing specific tolerances for residues of chloroneb,
cypermethrin, methidathion, nitrapyrin, oxyfluorfen, pirimiphos-methyl,
sulfosate, tebuthiuron, thiabendazole, thidiazuron, and tribuphos in or
on commodities listed in the regulatory text of this document.
    EPA is finalizing these tolerance actions in order to implement the
tolerance recommendations made during the reregistration and tolerance
reassessment processes (including follow-up on canceled or additional
uses of pesticides). As part of these processes, EPA is required to
determine whether each of the amended tolerances meets the safety
standard of the FFDCA. The safety finding determination of ``reasonable
certainty of no harm'' is discussed in detail in each Reregistration
Eligibility Decision (RED) and Report of the Food Quality Protection
Act (FQPA) Tolerance Reassessment Progress and Risk Management Decision
(TRED) for the active ingredient. REDs and TREDs recommend the
implementation of certain tolerance actions, including modifications,
to reflect current use patterns, to meet safety findings and change
commodity names and groupings in accordance with new EPA policy.
Printed copies of many REDs and TREDs may be obtained from EPA's
National Service Center for Environmental Publications (EPA/NSCEP),
P.O. Box 42419, Cincinnati, OH 45242-2419, telephone number: 1-800-490-
9198; fax: 1-513-489-8695; Internet at http://www.epa.gov/ncepihom and
from the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), 5285 Port Royal
Road, Springfield, VA 22161, telephone number: 1-800-553-6847 or (703)
605-6000; Internet at http://www.ntis.gov Electronic copies of REDs and
TREDs are available on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov.
and http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/reregistration/status.htm.
    In this final rule, EPA is revoking certain tolerances because
either they are no longer needed or are associated with food uses that
are no longer registered under FIFRA in the United States. Those
instances where registrations were canceled were because the registrant
failed to pay the required maintenance fee and/or the registrant
voluntarily requested cancellation of one or more registered uses of
the pesticide active ingredient. The tolerances revoked by this final
rule are no longer necessary to cover residues of the relevant
pesticides in or on domestically treated commodities or commodities
treated outside but

[[Page 53457]]

imported into the United States. It is EPA's general practice to issue
a final rule revoking those tolerances and tolerance exemptions for
residues of pesticide active ingredients on crop uses for which there
are no active registrations under FIFRA, unless any person in comments
on the proposal indicates a need for the tolerance or tolerance
exemption to cover residues in or on imported commodities or legally
treated domestic commodities.
    EPA has historically been concerned that retention of tolerances
that are not necessary to cover residues in or on legally treated foods
may encourage misuse of pesticides within the United States.
    Generally, EPA will proceed with the revocation of these tolerances
on the grounds discussed in Unit II.A. if one of the following
conditions applies:
    1. Prior to EPA's issuance of a FFDCA section 408(f) order
requesting additional data or issuance of a FFDCA section 408(d) or (e)
order revoking the tolerances on other grounds, commenters retract the
comment identifying a need for the tolerance to be retained.
    2. EPA independently verifies that the tolerance is no longer needed.
    3. The tolerance is not supported by data that demonstrate that the
tolerance meets the requirements under FQPA.
    This final rule does not revoke those tolerances for which EPA
received comments stating a need for the tolerance to be retained.
    In response to the proposal published in the Federal Register of
May 2, 2007 (72 FR 24198), EPA received one comment during the 60-day
public comment period, as follows:
    Comment by a private citizen. A private citizen stated that only
zero tolerance levels should be acceptable. In addition, the commenter
expressed a concern for pesticide use in general and their possible
toxic effects on wildlife and humans.
    Agency response. The private citizen's comments did not take issue
with any of the Agency's specific conclusions to modify, revoke, or
establish certain tolerances. Also, the commenter did not refer to any
specific studies which pertained to those conclusions. EPA believes
that the tolerance actions finalized herein meet the safety standard of
FFDCA section 408, 21 U.S.C. 346a. In developing REDs and TREDs, EPA
worked with stakeholders, pesticide registrants, growers and other
pesticide users, environmental and public health interests, the States,
the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), other Federal agencies, and
others to develop voluntary measures or regulatory controls needed to
effectively reduce risks of concern. Such options include voluntary
cancellation of pesticide products or deletion of uses, declaring
certain uses ineligible or not yet eligible, restricting use of
products to certified applicators, limiting the amount or frequency of
use, improving use directions and precautions, adding more protective
clothing and equipment requirements, requiring special packaging or
engineering controls, requiring no-treatment buffer zones, employing
environmental and ecological safeguards, and other measures.
    The Agency did not receive any specific comments, during the 60-day
comment period, on the following chemicals: Chloroneb, cypermethrin,
methidathion, nitrapyrin, oxyfluorfen, pirimiphos-methyl, sulfosate,
tebuthiuron, thiabendazole, thidiazuron, and tribuphos. Therefore, the
Agency is finalizing the amendments proposed in the Federal Register of
May 2, 2007 (72 FR 24198). For a detailed discussion of the Agency's
rationale for the establishments, revocations, and modifications to the
tolerances, refer to the proposed rule of May 2, 2007.
    In addition, the Agency is making the following revisions in this
final rule.
    • Oxyfluorfen. The Agency did not propose in a notice for
comment to revise the tolerance nomenclature for oxyfluorfen in 40 CFR
180.381(a) from cocoa bean, dried bean to cacao bean, dried bean, as is
current Agency practice. However, section 553(b)(3)(B) of the
Administrative Procedure Act provides that notice and comment is not
necessary ``when the agency for good cause finds (and incorporates the
finding and a brief statement of reasons therefore in the rules issued)
that notice and public procedure thereon are impracticable,
unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.'' Consequently, for
good cause, EPA is revising the commodity terminology in 40 CFR
180.381(a) from cocoa bean, dried bean to cacao bean, dried bean. The
reason for taking this action is because such action has no practical
impact on the use of or exposure to the pesticide active ingredient,
oxyfluorfen, in or on that commodity and is made such that the
tolerance terminology will conform to current Agency practice.
    • Thiabendazole. The Agency did not propose in a notice for
comment to revise the tolerance nomenclature for thiabendazole in 40
CFR 180.242(a)(1) from ``sweet potato (POST-H to sweet potato intended
only for use as seed)'' to ``sweet potato (postharvest to sweet potato
intended only for use as seed),'' as is current Agency practice.
However, section 553(b)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act
provides that notice and comment is not necessary ``when the agency for
good cause finds (and incorporates the finding and a brief statement of
reasons therefore in the rules issued) that notice and public procedure
thereon are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.'' Consequently, for good cause, EPA is revising the commodity
terminology in 40 CFR 180.242(a)(1) from ``sweet potato (POST-H to
sweet potato intended only for use as seed)'' to ``sweet potato
(postharvest to sweet potato intended only for use as seed).'' The
reason for taking this action is because such action has no practical
impact on the use of or exposure to the pesticide active ingredient,
thiabendazole, in or on that commodity and is made such that the
tolerance terminology will conform to current Agency practice.
    Note: Sugar beet commodities were not included in the human dietary
risk assessment for thiabendazole because the use was not supported by
the technical registrant. (Metabolic fate data of thiabendazole in
sugar beets had been submitted to EPA and reviewed by the Agency as
acceptable. Efficacy, storage, foliar use and post-harvest use data had
also been submitted some years ago, but some of that data was
incomplete.) Therefore, the thiabendazole RED recommended revocation of
the tolerances on sugar beet commodities. Currently, there is an active
end use registration for thiabendazole use on sugar beets. Since the
thiabendazole RED, based on the estimated acute and chronic dietary
risks of thiabendazole, which are 77% of the acute population adjusted
dose (aPAD) and 2% of the chronic population adjusted dose (cPAD), the
Agency determined that the addition of sugar beet commodities to the
dietary risk assessment for thiabendazole would not significantly
contribute to dietary or drinking water risk estimates. Consequently,
the Agency did not propose to take action on the sugar beet tolerances
in 40 CFR 180.242(a) on May 2, 2007 (72 FR 24198), but is in the
process of getting the sugar beet use removed from the one remaining
active registration and does expect to address the sugar beet
tolerances in a future publication in the Federal Register.
    • Zeta-cypermethrin. The Agency also did not propose in a
notice for comment to revise the tolerance nomenclature for zeta-
cypermethrin in 40 CFR 180.418(a)(2) from ``food/feed items (other than
those covered by a higher tolerance as a result of use on growing
crops) in food/feed handling

[[Page 53458]]

establishments'' to ``food commodities/feed commodities (other than
those covered by a higher tolerance as a result of use on growing
crops) in food/feed handling establishments'' and from ``sunflower'' to
``sunflower, seed,'' as is current Agencv practice. However, section
553(h)(3)(B) of the Administrative Procedure Act provides that notice
and comment is not necessary ``when the agency for good cause finds
(and incorporates the finding and a brief statement of reasons
therefore in the rules issued) that notice and public procedure thereon
are impracticable. unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest.''
Consequently, for good cause, EPA is revising the commodity terminolgy
in 40 CER 180.418(a)(2) from ``food/feed items (other than those
covered by a higher tolerance as a result of use on growing crops) in
food/feed handling establishments'' to ``food commodities/feed
commodities (other than those covered by a higher tolerance as a result
of use on growing crops) in food/feed handling establishments'' and
from ``sunflower'' to ``sunflower, seed.'' The reason for taking this
action is because such action has no practical impact on the use of or
exposure to the pesticide active ingredient, zeta-cypermethrin, in or
on these commodities and is made such that the tolerance terminology
will conform to current Agency practice.

B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?

    EPA may issue a regulation establishing, modifying, or revoking a
tolerance under FFDCA section 408(e). In this final rule, EPA is
establishing, modifying, and revoking tolerances to implement the
tolerance recommendations made during the reregistration and tolerance
reassessment processes, and as follow-up on canceled uses of
pesticides. As part of these processes, EPA is required to determine
whether each of the amended tolerances meets the safety standards under
FFDCA. The safety finding determination is found in detail in each
post-FQPA RED and TRED for the active ingredient. REDs and TREDs
recommend the implementation of certain tolerance actions, including
modifications to reflect current use patterns, to meet safety findings,
and change commodity names and groupings in accordance with new EPA
policy. Printed and electronic copies of the REDs and TREDs are
available as provided in Unit II.A.
    EPA has issued post-FQPA REDs for chloroneb, cypermethrin,
methidathion, nitrapyrin, oxyfluorfen, pirimiphos-methyl,
thiabendazole, thidiazuron, and tribuphos, and a TRED for tebuthiuron,
whose RED was completed prior to FQPA. A RED for sulfosate was not
needed because it was registered after November 1, 1984, and not
subject to reregistration eligibility, and its tolerances were
reassessed prior to completion of a TRED, such that a TRED for
sulfosate was no longer needed because EPA made a safety finding which
reassessed its tolerances according to the FFDCA standard, maintaining
them when new tolerances were established as noted in Unit II.A.). REDs
and TREDs contain the Agency's evaluation of the data base for these
pesticides, including statements regarding additional data on the
active ingredients that may be needed to confirm the potential human
health and environmental risk assessments associated with current
product uses, and REDs state conditions under which these uses and
products will be eligible for reregistration. The REDs and TREDs
recommended the establishment, modification, and/or revocation of
specific tolerances. RED and TRED recommendations such as establishing
or modifying tolerances, and in some cases revoking tolerances, are the
result of assessment under the FFDCA standard of ``reasonable certainty
of no harm.'' However, tolerance revocations recommended in REDs and
TREDs that are made final in this document do not need such assessment
when the tolerances are no longer necessary.
    EPA's general practice is to revoke tolerances for residues of
pesticide active ingredients on crops for which FIFRA registrations no
longer exist and on which the pesticide may therefore no longer be used
in the United States. EPA has historically been concerned that
retention of tolerances that are not necessary to cover residues in or
on legally treated foods may encourage misuse of pesticides within the
United States. Nonetheless, EPA will establish and maintain tolerances
even when corresponding domestic uses are canceled if the tolerances,
which EPA refers to as ``import tolerances,'' are necessary to allow
importation into the United States of food containing such pesticide
residues. However, where there are no imported commodities that require
these import tolerances, the Agency believes it is appropriate to
revoke tolerances for unregistered pesticides in order to prevent
potential misuse.
    When EPA establishes tolerances for pesticide residues in or on raw
agricultural commodities, the Agency gives consideration to possible
pesticide residues in meat, milk, poultry, and/or eggs produced by
animals that are fed agricultural products (for example, grain or hay)
containing pesticides residues (40 CFR 180.6). If there is no
reasonable expectation of finite pesticide residues in or on meat,
milk, poultry, or eggs, then tolerances do not need to be established
for these commodities (40 CFR 180.6(b) and180.6(c)).

C. When Do These Actions Become Effective?

    With the exception of regional tolerances for methidathion on
alfalfa forage, alfalfa hay, timothy forage, and timothy hay, which EPA
is revoking with specific expiration/revocation dates, the Agency is
revoking, modifying, and establishing specific tolerances, and revising
specific commodity terminologies effective September 19, 2007. With the
exception of the revoked four regional tolerances for methidathion, the
Agency believes that existing stocks of pesticide products labeled for
the uses associated with the revoked tolerances have been completely
exhausted and that treated commodities have had sufficient time for
passage through the channels of trade. EPA is revoking certain
methidathion tolerances with an expiration/revocation date of March 31,
2008, for alfalfa forage, alfalfa hay, timothy forage, and timothy hay.
The Agency believes that, because their regional registrations expire
on December 31, 2007, the revocation date of March 31, 2008, allows
sufficient time for passage of treated commodities through the channels
of trade.
    Any commodities listed in the regulatory text of this document that
are treated with the pesticides subject to this final rule, and that
are in the channels of trade following the tolerance revocations, shall
be subject to FFDCA section 408(1)(5), as established by the FQPA.
Under this unit, any residues of these pesticides in or on such food
shall not render the food adulterated so long as it is shown to the
satisfaction of the Food and Drug Administration that:
    1. The residue is present as the result of an application or use of
the pesticide at a time and in a manner that was lawful under FIFRA.
    2. The residue does not exceed the level that was authorized at the
time of the application or use to be present on the food under a
tolerance or exemption from a tolerance. Evidence to show that food was
lawfully treated may include records that verify the dates that the
pesticide was applied to such food.

[[Page 53459]]

III. Are There Any International Trade Issues Raised by this Final Action?

    In making its tolerance decisions, EPA seeks to harmonize U.S.
tolerances with international standards whenever possible, consistent
with U.S. food safety standards and agricultural practices. EPA
considers the international Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) established
by the Codex Alimentarius Commission, as required by section 408(b)(4)
of the FFDCA. The Codex Alimentarius is a joint U.N. Food and
Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization food standards
program, and it is recognized as an international food safety
standards-setting organization in trade agreements to which the United
States is a party. EPA may establish a tolerance that is different from
a Codex MRL; however, FFDCA section 408(b)(4) requires that EPA explain
the reasons for departing from the Codex level in a notice published
for public comment. EPA's effort to harmonize with Codex MRLs is
summarized in the tolerance reassessment section of individual REDs and
TREDs, and in the Residue Chemistry document which supports the RED and
TRED, as mentioned in the proposed rule cited in Unit II.A. Specific
tolerance actions in this rule and how they compare to Codex MRLs (if
any) are discussed in Unit II.A. of the proposal.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    In this final rule EPA establishes tolerances under FFDCA section
408(e), and also modifies and revokes specific tolerances established
under FFDCA section 408. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has
exempted these types of actions (i.e., establishment and modification
of a tolerance and tolerance revocation for which extraordinary
circumstances do not exist) from review under Executive Order 12866,
entitled Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993).
Because this rule has been exempted from review under Executive Order
12866 due to its lack of significance, this rule is not subject to
Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355,
May 22, 2001). This final rule does not contain any information
collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., or impose any enforceable duty or
contain any unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public Law 104-4). Nor
does it require any special considerations as required by Executive
Order 12898, entitled Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice
in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629,
February 16, 1994); or OMB review or any other Agency action under
Executive Order 13045, entitled Protection of Children from
Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23,
1997). This action does not involve any technical standards that would
require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant
to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104-13, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272
note). Pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601
et seq.), the Agency previously assessed whether establishment of
tolerances, exemptions from tolerances, raising of tolerance levels,
expansion of exemptions, or revocations might significantly impact a
substantial number of small entities and concluded that, as a general
matter, these actions do not impose a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities. These analyses for tolerance
establishments and modifications, and for tolerance revocations were
published on May 4, 1981 (46 FR 24950) and on December 17, 1997 (62 FR
66020) (FRL-5753-1), respectively, and were provided to the Chief
Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business Administration. Taking into
account this analysis, and available information concerning the
pesticides listed in this rule, the Agency hereby certifies that this
final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. In a memorandum dated May 25, 2001, EPA
determined that eight conditions must all be satisfied in order for an
import tolerance or tolerance exemption revocation to adversely affect
a significant number of small entity importers, and that there is a
negligible joint probability of all eight conditions holding
simultaneously with respect to any particular revocation. (This Agency
document is available in the docket, as mentioned in Unit II.A.)
Furthermore, for the pesticides named in this final rule, the Agency
knows of no extraordinary circumstances that exist as to the present
revocations that would change EPA's previous analysis. In addition, the
Agency has determined that this action will not have a substantial
direct effect on States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government, as specified
in Executive Order 13132, entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10,
1999). Executive Order 13132 requires EPA to develop an accountable
process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input by State and local
officials in the development of regulatory policies that have
federalism implications.'' ``Policies that have federalism
implications'' is defined in the Executive Order to include regulations
that have ``substantial direct effects on the States, on the
relationship between the national government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of
government.'' This final rule directly regulates growers, food
processors, food handlers, and food retailers, not States. This action
does not alter the relationships or distribution of power and
responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions
of section 408(n)(4) of FFDCA. For these same reasons, the Agency has
determined that this rule does not have any ``tribal implications'' as
described in Executive Order 13175, entitled Consultation and
Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (59 FR 22951, November 6,
2000). Executive Order 13175, requires EPA to develop an accountable
process to ensure ``meaningful and timely input by tribal officials in
the development of regulatory policies that have tribal implications.''
``Policies that have tribal implications'' is defined in the Executive
Order to include regulations that have ``substantial direct effects on
one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal
Government and the Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.''
This rule will not have substantial direct effects on tribal
governments, on the relationship between the Federal Government and
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, as specified in
Executive Order 13175. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to
this rule.

V. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to
the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will

[[Page 53460]]

submit a report containing this rule and other required information to
the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller
General of the United States prior to publication of this final rule in
the Federal Register. This final rule is not a ``major rule'' as
defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
