Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58(c), this notice announces the availability of EPA's interim registration review decision for the pesticide shown in Table 1. The interim registration review decision is supported by rationales included in the docket established for each chemical. ( printed page 51753)

II. Background

EPA is conducting its registration review of sedaxane 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 an interim registration review decision for sedaxane.

Prior to completing the interim registration review decision for sedaxane, EPA posted and invited the public to submit any comments or new information on the proposed interim registration review decision and the amended proposed interim registration review decision (please see the sedaxane registration review docket at Regulations.gov), consistent with 40 CFR 155.58(a). EPA considered and responded to comments or information received during the public comment periods in the interim registration review decision.
