II. Petition for Exemption

    In the Federal Register of February 27, 2013 (78 FR 13295) (FRL-
9380-2), EPA issued a document pursuant to FFDCA section 408, 21 U.S.C. 
346a, announcing the filing of a pesticide petition (PP 2E8049) by 
Wagner Regulatory Associates, P.O. Box 640, 7217 Lancaster Pike, Suite 
A, Hockessin, DE 19707 on behalf of Pennzoil-Quaker State Company, 700 
Milam Street, Houston, TX 77002. The petition requested that 40 CFR 
180.910 be amended by establishing an exemption from the requirement of 
a tolerance for residues of distillates, (Fischer-Tropsch), heavy, 
C18-C50, branched, cyclic and linear (CAS Reg. 
No. 848301-69-9) when used as an inert ingredient as a solvent, diluent 
and/or dust suppressant in pesticide formulations applied to growing 
crops and raw agricultural commodities after harvest. That document 
referenced a summary of the petition prepared by Wagner Regulatory 
Associates on behalf of the Pennzoil-Quaker State Company, the 
petitioner, which is available in the docket, http://www.regulations.gov. There were no comments received in response to the 
notice of filing.

III. Inert Ingredient Definition

    Inert ingredients are all ingredients that are not active 
ingredients as defined in 40 CFR 153.125 and include, but are not 
limited to, the following types of ingredients (except when they have a 
pesticidal efficacy of their own): Solvents such as alcohols and 
hydrocarbons; surfactants such as polyoxyethylene polymers and fatty 
acids; carriers such as clay and diatomaceous earth; thickeners such as 
carrageenan and modified cellulose; wetting, spreading, and dispersing 
agents; propellants in aerosol dispensers; microencapsulating agents; 
and emulsifiers. The term ``inert'' is not intended to imply 
nontoxicity; the ingredient may or may not be chemically active. 
Generally, EPA has exempted inert ingredients from the requirement of a 
tolerance based on the low toxicity of the individual inert 
ingredients.

IV. Aggregate Risk Assessment and Determination of Safety

    Section 408(c)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA allows EPA to establish an 
exemption from the requirement for a tolerance (the legal limit for a 
pesticide chemical residue in or on a food) only if EPA determines that 
the tolerance is ``safe.'' Section 408(b)(2)(A)(ii) of FFDCA defines 
``safe'' to mean that ``there is a reasonable certainty that no harm 
will result from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue, 
including all anticipated dietary exposures and all other exposures for 
which there is reliable information.'' This includes exposure through 
drinking water and in residential settings, but does not include 
occupational exposure. Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA requires EPA to 
give special consideration to exposure of infants and children to the 
pesticide chemical residue in establishing a tolerance and to ``ensure 
that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to 
infants and children from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical 
residue. . . .''
    EPA establishes exemptions from the requirement of a tolerance only 
in those cases where it can be clearly demonstrated that the risks from 
aggregate exposure to pesticide chemical residues under reasonably 
foreseeable circumstances will pose no appreciable risks to human 
health. In order to determine the risks from aggregate exposure to 
pesticide inert ingredients, the Agency considers the toxicity of the 
inert in conjunction with possible exposure to residues of the inert 
ingredient through food, drinking water, and through other exposures 
that occur as a result of pesticide use in residential settings. If EPA 
is able to determine that a finite tolerance is not necessary to ensure 
that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result from 
aggregate exposure to the inert ingredient, an exemption from the 
requirement of a tolerance may be established.
    Consistent with FFDCA section 408(c)(2)(A), and the factors 
specified in FFDCA section 408(c)(2)(B), EPA has reviewed the available 
scientific data and other relevant information in support of this 
action. EPA has sufficient data to assess the hazards of and to make a 
determination on aggregate exposure for distillates, (Fischer-Tropsch), 
heavy, C18-C50, branched, cyclic and linear 
including exposure resulting from the exemption established by this 
action. EPA's assessment of exposures and risks associated with 
distillates, (Fischer-Tropsch), heavy, C18-C50, 
branched, cyclic and linear follows.

A. Toxicological Profile

    EPA has evaluated the available toxicity data and considered their 
validity, completeness, and reliability as well as the relationship of 
the results of the studies to human risk. EPA has also considered 
available information concerning the variability of the sensitivities 
of major identifiable subgroups of consumers, including infants and 
children. Specific information on the studies received and the nature 
of the adverse effects caused by distillates, (Fischer-Tropsch), heavy, 
C18-C50, branched, cyclic and linear (also known 
as GTL petroleum distillates) as well as the no-observed-adverse-
effect-level (NOAEL) and the lowest-observed-adverse-effect-level 
(LOAEL) from the toxicity studies are discussed in this unit.
    The acute oral lethal dose (LD)50 is 5,000 milligrams/
kilograms (mg/kg) in rats. An acute dermal toxicity study was not 
conducted. There were no available dermal irritation data. It is not 
irritating to the rabbit eye. It is not a skin sensitizer in the guinea 
pig.
    In a 90-day oral toxicity study, GTL petroleum distillates 
administered by gavage resulted in a statistically significant increase 
in the incidence and severity of alveolar macrophage accumulations and 
increased vacuolation of alveolar macrophages in the lung in rats at 
the lowest observed adverse effect level (LOAEL) 200 mg/kg/day. The No 
Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) was 50 mg/kg/day.
    In a 2-generation reproductive toxicity study via gavage in rats, 
GTL petroleum distillates caused maternal and offspring toxicity at 
1,000 mg/kg/day. Toxicity was manifested as chronic interstitial/
alveolus inflammation in the lungs. The NOAEL for parental toxicity was 
50 mg/kg/day since animals in the mid dose (250 mg/kg/day) group were 
not analyzed. The reproduction NOAEL was 1,000 mg/kg/day, the highest 
dose tested.
    Based upon subsequent studies conducted to evaluate the lung 
effects, the Agency determined that the effects observed in the 90-day 
oral toxicity study and 2-generation reproductive toxicity study were 
caused by gavage administration error and were not test material (dose) 
related. In a 28-day oral feeding study in rats at doses up to 1,256 
mg/kg/day, no adverse effects were observed. In a prenatal 
developmental toxicity study in the rat (by oral gavage) at doses up to 
1,000 mg/kg/day, no adverse toxicological effects were seen. The 
results of these two more recent studies alleviated the Agency's 
concern for the lung effects seen in the 90-day oral toxicity study and 
the 2-generation reproduction study.
    GTL petroleum distillates were evaluated for mutagenic potential 
using

[[Page 42402]]

the Ames test, micronucleus assay, and gene mutation in mammalian 
cells. These studies were negative for the induction of mutations and 
aberrations. Therefore, GTL petroleum distillates are considered non-
mutagenic.
    A neurotoxicity study was not conducted with GTL petroleum 
distillates. However, signs of neurotoxicity were not observed in acute 
toxicity tests at doses up to 5,000 mg/kg body weight (bw)/day. 
Evidence of neurotoxicity was not observed in the 90-day oral toxicity 
study in rats and in the 28-day oral feeding study in rats.
    An immunotoxicity study was not conducted with GTL petroleum 
distillates. However, alveolar macrophage accumulations and increased 
vacuolation of alveolar macrophages in the lung was observed in rats at 
>200 mg/kg/day in both the 90-day oral and 2-generation reproduction 
toxicity studies. However, these effects were determined to be caused 
by gavage technique error rather than effects attributable to the test 
substance.
    There are no data specific to the absorption, metabolism, 
distribution and elimination of GTL petroleum distillates, however, the 
absorption of other mixtures of normal, branched and cyclic petroleum 
derived hydrocarbons is inversely related to carbon chain length and is 
independent of isomeric form, preparation process or type of product. 
Consequently, when administered orally, Fischer-Tropsch derived 
hydrocarbons in the range of C18-C50 are likely 
to be unabsorbed and excreted in the feces.
    Carcinogenicity studies with GTL petroleum distillates are not 
available for review. However, based on the lack of carcinogenicity of 
related linear, branched, and cyclic alkanes and the negligible 
absorption of GTL petroleum distillates, lack of systemic toxicity at 
the limit dose, lack of mutagenic concerns, GTL petroleum distillates 
are not expected to be carcinogenic.

B. Toxicological Points of Departure/Levels of Concern

    There were no adverse effects in repeat dose toxicity, 
reproductive, and developmental studies with GTL petroleum distillates 
at or above limit dose levels to either parental animals or their 
offspring. Thus, due to the low potential hazard and lack of hazard 
endpoint, the Agency has determined that a quantitative risk assessment 
using safety factors applied to a point of departure protective of an 
identified hazard endpoint is not appropriate for GTL petroleum 
distillates.

C. Exposure Assessment

    1. Dietary exposure from food and feed uses and drinking water. In 
evaluating dietary exposure to GTL petroleum distillates, EPA 
considered exposure under the proposed exemption from the requirement 
of a tolerance. Dietary exposure to GTL petroleum distillates can occur 
when eating food treated with pesticide formulation containing this 
inert ingredient. Since an endpoint for risk assessment was not 
identified, a quantitative dietary exposure assessment for GTL 
petroleum distillates was not conducted.
    2. From non-dietary exposure. The term ``residential exposure'' is 
used in this document to refer to non-occupational, non-dietary 
exposure (e.g., textiles (clothing and diapers), carpets, swimming 
pools, and hard surface disinfection on walls, floors, tables).
    GTL petroleum distillates may be used as an inert ingredient in 
agricultural pesticide products that could result in short- and 
intermediate-term residential exposure. Residential exposure can occur 
via dermal and inhalation routes of exposure to residential applicator. 
Dermal and inhalation exposure can occur from the use of consumer 
products and foods/food additives containing GTL petroleum distillates. 
Since an endpoint for risk assessment was not identified, a 
quantitative residential exposure assessment for GTL petroleum 
distillates was not conducted.
    3. Cumulative effects from substances with a common mechanism of 
toxicity. Section 408(b)(2)(D)(v) of FFDCA requires that, when 
considering whether to establish, modify, or revoke a tolerance, the 
Agency consider ``available information'' concerning the cumulative 
effects of a particular pesticide's residues and ``other substances 
that have a common mechanism of toxicity.''
    EPA has not found distillates, (Fischer-Tropsch), heavy, 
C18-C50, branched, cyclic and linear to share a 
common mechanism of toxicity with any other substances, and the 
category does not appear to produce a toxic metabolite produced by 
other substances. For the purposes of this tolerance action, therefore, 
EPA has assumed that distillates, (Fischer-Tropsch), heavy, 
C18-C50, branched, cyclic and linear do not have 
a common mechanism of toxicity with other substances. For information 
regarding EPA's efforts to determine which chemicals have a common 
mechanism of toxicity and to evaluate the cumulative effects of such 
chemicals, see EPA's Web site at http://www.epa.gov/pesticides/cumulative.

D. Safety Factor for Infants and Children

    1. In general. Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA provides that EPA 
shall apply an additional tenfold (10x) margin of safety for infants 
and children in the case of threshold effects to account for prenatal 
and postnatal toxicity and the completeness of the database on toxicity 
and exposure unless EPA determines based on reliable data that a 
different margin of safety will be safe for infants and children. This 
additional margin of safety is commonly referred to as the Food Quality 
Protection Act Safety Factor (FQPA SF). In applying this provision, EPA 
either retains the default value of 10x, or uses a different additional 
safety factor when reliable data available to EPA support the choice of 
a different factor.
    At this time, there is no concern for potential sensitivity to 
infants and children resulting from exposures to GTL petroleum 
distillates. There is no reported quantitative or qualitative evidence 
of increased susceptibility of rat fetuses to in utero exposure to GTL 
petroleum distillates in developmental toxicity studies in rats. No 
quantitative or qualitative evidence of increased susceptibility has 
been reported following the pre/postnatal exposure to rats in 2-
generation reproduction toxicity studies in rats. Given the lack of 
adverse toxicological effects at limit dose levels, a safety factor 
analysis has not been used to assess the risk. For these reasons the 
additional tenfold safety factor is unnecessary.

E. Aggregate Risks and Determination of Safety

    In examining aggregate exposure, EPA takes into account the 
available and reliable information concerning exposures to pesticide 
residues in food and drinking water, and non-occupational pesticide 
exposures. Dietary (food and drinking water) and non-dietary 
(residential) exposures of concern are not anticipated for GTL 
petroleum distillates because of its low toxicity based on animal 
studies showing toxicity at or above the limit dose of 1,000 mg/kg/day. 
Taking into consideration all available information on GTL petroleum 
distillates, EPA has determined that there is a reasonable certainty 
that no harm to any population subgroup, including infants and 
children, will result from aggregate exposure to GTL petroleum 
distillates under reasonably foreseeable circumstances. Therefore, the 
establishment of an exemption from

[[Page 42403]]

tolerance under 40 CFR 180.910 for residues of GTL petroleum 
distillates when used as an inert ingredient (solvent, diluent and/or 
dust suppressant) in pesticide formulations applied to growing crops 
and raw agricultural commodities after harvest is safe under FFDCA 
section 408.

V. Other Considerations

A. Analytical Enforcement Methodology

    An analytical method is not required for enforcement purposes since 
the Agency is establishing an exemption from the requirement of a 
tolerance without any numerical limitation.

B. International Residue Limits

    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 (Codex), as required by FFDCA 
section 408(b)(4). The Codex Alimentarius is a joint United Nations 
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.
    The Codex has not established a MRL for distillates, (Fischer-
Tropsch), heavy, C18-C50, branched, cyclic and 
linear.

VI. Conclusions

    Therefore, an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance is 
established under 40 CFR 180. 910 for distillates, (Fischer-Tropsch), 
heavy, C18-C50, branched, cyclic and linear (CAS 
Reg. No. 848301-69-9) when used as an inert ingredient (solvent, 
diluent and/or dust suppressant) in pesticide formulations applied to 
growing crops or raw agricultural commodities after harvest.

VII. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    This action establishes a tolerance under FFDCA section 408(d) in 
response to a petition submitted to the Agency. The Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions from 
review under Executive Order 12866, entitled ``Regulatory Planning and 
Review'' (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because this action has been 
exempted from review under Executive Order 12866, this action is not 
subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled ``Actions Concerning 
Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or 
Use'' (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001) or Executive Order 13045, entitled 
``Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety 
Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This action does not contain any 
information collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), nor does it require any 
special considerations under Executive Order 12898, entitled ``Federal 
Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and 
Low-Income Populations'' (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    Since tolerances and exemptions that are established on the basis 
of a petition under FFDCA section 408(d), such as the tolerance in this 
final rule, do not require the issuance of a proposed rule, the 
requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et 
seq.), do not apply.
    This action directly regulates growers, food processors, food 
handlers, and food retailers, not States or tribes, nor does this 
action alter the relationships or distribution of power and 
responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions 
of FFDCA section 408(n)(4). As such, the Agency has determined that 
this action will not have a substantial direct effect on States or 
tribal governments, on the relationship between the national government 
and the States or tribal governments, or on the distribution of power 
and responsibilities among the various levels of government or between 
the Federal Government and Indian tribes. Thus, the Agency has 
determined that Executive Order 13132, entitled ``Federalism'' (64 FR 
43255, August 10, 1999) and Executive Order 13175, entitled 
``Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments'' (65 FR 
67249, November 9, 2000) do not apply to this action. In addition, this 
action does not impose any enforceable duty or contain any unfunded 
mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 
(UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.).
    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 (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note).

VIII. Congressional Review Act

    Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), 
EPA will 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 
the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' 
as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
