subpart
FFF),
OMB
Control
Number
2060
 
0073,
EPA
ICR
Number
1157.07.
This
is
a
request
to
renew
an
existing,
approved
collection
that
is
scheduled
to
expire
on
June

2003.
Under
OMB
regulations,
the
Agency
may
continue

while
this
submission
is
pending
at

Abstract:
The
NSPS
for
Flexible
Vinyl
and
Urethane
Coating
and
Printing,
published
at
40
CFR
part
60,
subpart
FFF,
were
proposed
on
January
18,
1983,
and
promulgated
on
June
29,
1984.
These
standards
of
performance
for
this
category
of
new
stationary
sources
of
hazardous
air
pollutants
are
required
by
section
111
of
the
Clean
Air
Act.
Facilities
may
meet
the
standards
by
using
materials
with
a
low
concentration
of
Volatile
Organic
Compounds
(
VOCs),
or
by
installing
emission
control
devices.
The
information
that
is
required
to
be
submitted
to
the
Agency
or
kept
at
the
facility
is
needed
to
insure
compliance
with
the
regulation.
These
include
initial
one­
time
notifications,
performance
tests
plans
and
reports
and
records
of
maintenance
and
shutdown,
startup,
and
malfunctions.
For
facilities
that
install
continuous
monitoring
system
(
CMS)
there
are
performance
tests,
and
maintenance
reports.
Excess
emissions
reports
are
submitted
semiannually.
Responses
to
the
collection
of
information
are
mandatory
(
40
CFR
part
60,
subpart
FFF).
An
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to,
a
collection
of
information
unless
it
displays
a
currently
valid
OMB
Control
Number.
The
OMB
Control
Numbers
for
EPA's
regulations
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9
and
48
CFR
chapter
15,
and
are
identified
on
the
form
and/
or
instrument,
if
applicable.
Burden
Statement:
The
annual
public
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
this
collection
of
information
are
estimated
to
average
14
(
rounded)
hours
per
response.
Burden
means
the
total
time,
effort,
or
financial
resources
expended
by
persons
to
generate,
maintain,
retain,
or
disclose
or
provide
information
to
or
for
a
Federal
agency.
This
includes
the
time
needed
to
review
instructions;
develop,
acquire,
install,
and
utilize
technology
and
systems
for
the
purposes
of
collecting,
validating,
and
verifying
information,
processing
and
maintaining
information,
and
disclosing
and
providing
information;
adjust
the
existing
ways
to
comply
with
any
previously
applicable
instructions
and
requirements;
train
personnel
to
be
able
to
respond
to
a
collection
of
information;
search
data
sources;
complete
and
review
the
collection
of
information;
and
transmit
or
otherwise
disclose
the
information.
Respondents/
Affected
Entities:
Flexible
Vinyl
and
Urethane
Coating
and
Printing
Manufacturers.
Estimated
Number
of
Respondents:
20.
Frequency
of
Response:
Semiannually,
initially.
Estimated
Total
Annual
Hour
Burden:
593.
Estimated
Total
Capital
and
Operations
&
Maintenance
(
O
&
M)
Annual
Costs:
$
61,000.
Changes
in
the
Estimates:
There
is
an
increase
of
78
hours
in
the
total
estimated
burden
currently
identified
in
the
OMB
Inventory
of
Approved
ICR
Burdens.
This
increase
in
burden
from
the
most
recently
approved
ICR
is
due
to
more
accurate
estimates
of
existing
sources.
We
have
assumed
that
there
will
be
one
new
source
(
respondent)
over
the
three
years
period
of
this
ICR.
The
change
in
respondent
cost
is
also
due
to
a
labor
rate
change
where
the
rate
has
increased
over
the
three
years
period
of
this
ICR.

A.
Residue
Chemistry
The
active
ingredient
in
the
end­
use
formulation,
AvauntO 
,
is
a
75:
25
mixture
of
two
isomers,
indoxacarb
(
DPX
 
KN128)
and
IN
 
KN127.
Only
one
of
the
isomers,
indoxacarb
(
DPX
 
KN128),
has
insecticidal
activity.
Since
the
insecticidal
efficacy
is
based
on
the
concentration
of
indoxacarb
(
DPX
 
KN128),
the
application
rates
have
been
normalized
on
an
indoxacarb
(
DPX
 
KN128)
basis.
The
proposed
tolerance
expression
includes
both
indoxacarb
(
DPX
 
KN128)
and
IN
 
KN127
and
the
residue
method
does
not
distinguish
between
the
enantiomers,
therefore,
residues
are
reported
as
the
sum
of
indoxacarb
(
DPX
 
KN128)
combined
with
IN
 
KN127.
Residues
of
indoxacarb
(
DPX
 
KN128)
combined
with
IN
 
KN127
will
be
referred
to
as
``
KN128/
KN127''.
1.
Plant
metabolism
The
metabolism
of
indoxacarb
in
plants
is
adequately
understood
to
support
these
tolerances.
Plant
metabolism
studies
in
cotton,
lettuce,
and
tomatoes
showed
no
significant
metabolites.
The
only
significant
residue
was
parent
compound.
2.
Analytical
method.
The
plant
residue
enforcement
method
detects
and
quantitates
indoxacarb
in
various
matrices
including
sweet
corn,
lettuce,
tomato,
broccoli,
apple,
grape,
cottonseed,
tomato,
peanut
and
soybean
commodity
samples
by
HPLC
 
UV.
The
limit
of
quantitation
in
the
method
allows
monitoring
of
crops
with
indoxacarb
residues
at
or
above
the
levels
proposed
in
these
tolerances.
3.

3.
Reproductive
and
developmental
toxicity.
The
results
of
a
series
of
studies
indicated
that
there
were
no
reproductive,
developmental
or
teratogenic
hazards
associated
with
the
use
of
indoxacarb.
In
a
2­
generation
rat
reproduction
study,
the
parental
NOAEL
was
1.5
mg/
kg/
day.
The
parental
NOAEL
was
based
on
observations
of
reduced
weight
gain
and
food
consumption
for
the
higher
concentration
groups
of
the
F0
generation,
and
potential
treatmentrelated
changes
in
spleen
weights
for
the
higher
groups
of
the
F1
generation.
There
was
no
effect
on
mating
or
fertility.
The
NOAEL
for
fertility
and
reproduction
was
6.4
mg/
kg/
day.
The
offspring
NOAEL
was
1.5
mg/
kg/
day,
and
was
based
on
the
reduced
mean
pup
weights
noted
for
the
F1
litters
of
the
higher
concentration
groups.
The
effects
on
pup
weights
occurred
only
at
a
maternal
effect
level
and
may
have
been
due
to
altered
growth
and
nutrition
in
the
dams.
In
studies
conducted
to
evaluate
developmental
toxicity
potential,
indoxacarb
was
neither
teratogenic
nor
uniquely
toxic
to
the
conceptus
(
i.
e.,
not
considered
a
developmental
toxin).
Developmental
studies
conducted
in
rats
and
rabbits
demonstrated
that
the
rat
was
more
susceptible
than
the
rabbit
to
the
maternal
and
fetal
effects
of
DPX
 
MP062.
Developmental
toxicity
was
observed
only
in
the
presence
of
maternal
toxicity.
The
NOAEL
for
maternal
and
fetal
effects
in
rats
was
2
mg/
kg/
day
based
on
body
weight
effects
and
decreased
food
consumption
at
4
mg/
kg/
day.
The
NOAEL
for
developmental
effects
in
fetuses
was
>
4
mg/
kg/
day.
In
rabbits,
the
maternal
and
fetal
NOAELS
were
500
mg/
kg/
day
based
on
body
weight
effects,
decreased
food
consumption
in
dams
and
decreased
weight
and
delayed
ossification
in
fetuses
at
1,000
mg/
kg/
day.
4.
Subchronic
toxicity.
Subchronic
(
90­
day)
feeding
studies
were
conducted
with
rats,
mice,
and
dogs.
In
a
90­
day
feeding
study
in
rats,
the
NOAEL
was
3.1
and
2.1
mg/
kg/
day
for
males
and
females,
respectively.
In
male
rats,
the
NOAEL
was
based
on
decreased
body
weight
and
nutritional
parameters,
mild
hemolytic
anemia
and
decreased
total
protein
and
globulin
concentration.
In
female
rats,
the
NOAEL
was
based
on
decreased
body
weight
and
food
efficiency.
In
a
subchronic
neurotoxicity
study
in
rats,
there
was
no
evidence
of
neurotoxicity
at
11.9
and
6.09
mg/
kg/
day,
the
highest
dose
tested
for
males
and
females,
respectively.
The
subchronic
NOAEL
in
dogs
(
5.0
mg/
kg/
day,
M/
F)
was
based
on
hemolytic
anemia.
Erythrocyte
values
for
most
dogs
were
within
a
range
that
would
be
considered
normal
for
dogs
in
a
clinical
setting.
Mice
were
less
sensitive
to
indoxacarb
than
the
rats
or
dogs.
NOAELs
(
23
mg/
kg/
day,
males,
16
mg/
kg/
day,
females)
were
based
on
mortality
(
males
only);
increased
reticulocytes
and
Heinz
bodies
and
decreased
body
weight,
weight
gain,
food
consumption,
food
efficiency;
and
increased
clinical
signs
(
leaning
to
one
side
and/
or
with
abnormal
gait
or
mobility)
(
females
only).
In
a
28­
day
repeated
dose
dermal
study,
the
NOAEL
was
50
mg/
kg/
day
based
on
decreased
body
weights,
body
weight
gains,
food
consumption,
and
food
efficiency
in
females,
and
changes
in
hematology
parameters,
the
spleen
and
clinical
signs
of
toxicity
in
both
sexes
in
rats.
5.
Chronic
toxicity.
Chronic
studies
with
indoxacarb
were
conducted
on
rats,
mice,
and
dogs
to
determine
oncogenic
potential
and/
or
chronic
toxicity
of
the
compound.
Effects
generally
similar
to
those
observed
in
the
90­
day
studies
were
seen
in
the
chronic
studies.
Indoxacarb
was
not
oncogenic
in
rats
or
mice.
The
chronic
NOAEL
in
male
rats
was
5
mg/
kg/
day
based
on
body
weight
and
nutritional
effects.
In
females,
the
NOAEL
of
2.1
mg/
kg/
day
was
based
on
body
weight
and
nutritional
changes,
as
well
as
biologically
significant
hematologic
changes
at
3.6
mg/
kg/
day
and
above.

JT333
were
not
detected
in
egg
whites;
only
insecticidally
inactive
metabolites
were
identified.
Parent
and
IN
 
JT333
were
found
in
egg
yolks;
however,
their
concentrations
were
very
low­
0.01­
0.02
ppm.
Concentrations
of
parent
and
IN
 
JT333
in
muscle
were
at
or
below
the
limit
of
quantitation,
(
LOQ)
(
0.01
ppm).
iii.
Cattle.
For
the
cow
study,
the
cattle
were
fed
at
10
ppm/
day
for
5
days;
approximately
20%
of
the
total
administered
dose
was
excreted
in
urine
and
53
 
60%
was
excreted
in
feces
in
5
days.
Four­
tenths
to
1.2%
of
the
total
dose
in
urine
was
parent
indicating
extensive
metabolism;
parent
represented
46
 
68%
of
the
fecal
activity.
Thus,
most
residues
were
not
absorbed;
those
residues
that
were
absorbed
were
extensively
metabolized.
Less
than
1%
of
the
total
administered
dose
was
in
milk,
most
of
which
was
parent
compound.
The
insecticidally
active
metabolite
IN
 
JT333
was
not
found
in
milk.
Residues
in
muscle
represented
less
than
0.01%
of
the
total
administered
dose
most
of
which
was
parent.
IN
 
JT333
was
not
detected
in
muscle.
No
other
metabolites
were
seen
above
10%
of
the
dose,
thus
only
parent
and
IN
 
JT333
were
monitored
in
the
cattle
feeding
study.
iv.
Cattle
feeding
study.
A
cattle
feeding
study
was
conducted
with
indoxacarb
at
doses
of
7.5
ppm,
22.5
and
75
ppm.
The
mean
KN128/
KN127
concentrations
were
proportional
to
the
dosing
level
in
whole
milk,
skim
milk,
cream,
muscle,
fat,
liver
and
kidney.
Based
on
final
residue
values
for
the
respective
commodities
contributing
to
the
cattle
diet,
the
anticipated
dietary
burden
in
dairy
cattle
is
51.7
ppm
and
the
anticipated
dietary
burden
in
beef
cattle
is
49.1
ppm.
The
proposed
grape
use
will
not
increase
the
animal
dietary
burden.
Based
on
standard
curves
constructed
from
data
in
the
cattle
feeding
study,
KN128/
KN127
concentrations
at
the
51.7
ppm
feeding
level
are
0.123
ppm
for
whole
milk,
0.033
ppm
for
skim
milk
and
1.46
ppm
for
cream.
The
KN128/
KN127
concentrations
at
the
49.1
ppm
feeding
level
are
0.046
ppm
for
muscle,
1.37
ppm
for
fat,
0.012
ppm
for
liver
and
0.026
ppm
for
kidney.
Tolerances
have
been
established
at
1.5
ppm
in
fat
(
cattle,
goat,
horse,
sheep
and
hog),
0.05
ppm
in
meat,
0.03
ppm
in
meat
byproducts
0.15
ppm
in
milk
and
4.0
ppm
in
milk
fat.
7.
Metabolite
toxicology.
In
rats,
indoxacarb
was
readily
absorbed
at
low
dose
(
5
mg/
kg),
but
saturated
at
the
high
dose
(
150
mg/
kg).
Indoxacarb
was
metabolized
extensively,
based
on
very
low
excretion
of
parent
compound
in
bile
and
extensive
excretion
of
metabolized
dose
in
the
urine
and
feces.
Some
parent
compound
remained
unabsorbed
and
was
excreted
in
the
feces.
No
parent
compound
was
excreted
in
the
urine.
The
retention
and
elimination
of
the
metabolite
IN­
JT333
from
fat
appeared
to
be
the
overall
rate
determining
process
for
elimination
of
radioactive
residues
from
the
body.
Metabolites
in
urine
were
cleaved
products
(
containing
only
one
radiolabel),
while
the
major
metabolites
in
the
feces
retained
both
radiolabels.
Major
metabolic
reactions
included
hydroxylation
of
the
indanone
ring,
hydrolysis
of
the
carboxylmethyl
group
from
the
amino
nitrogen
and
the
opening
of
the
oxadiazine
ring,
which
gave
rise
to
cleaved
products.
Metabolites
were
identified
by
mass
spectral
analysis,
NMR,
ultraviolet
(
UV),
and/
or
by
comparison
to
standards
chemically
synthesized
or
produced
by
microsomal
enzymes.
8.
Endocrine
disruption.
Lifespan,
and
multigenerational
bioassays
in
mammals,
and
acute
and
subchronic
studies
on
aquatic
organisms
and
wildlife
did
not
reveal
endocrine
effects.
Any
endocrine
related
effects
would
have
been
detected
in
this
definitive
array
of
required
tests.
The
probability
of
any
such
effect
due
to
agricultural
uses
of
indoxacarb
is
negligible.
C.
Aggregate
Exposure
Tolerances
for
indoxacarb
are
proposed
to
support
agricultural
use
on
grapes.
There
are
residential
uses
of
indoxacarb
pending
(
fire
ant
bait),
however,
the
risk
from
that
use
has
been
found
to
be
negligible.
1.
Dietary
exposure.
The
chronic
reference
dose
(
RfD)
of
0.02
mg/
kg
bwt/
day
is
based
on
a
NOAEL
of
2.0
mg/
kg
bwt/
day
from
the
subchronic
rat
feeding
study,
the
subchronic
rat
neurotoxicity
study,
and
the
chronic/
carcinogenicity
study,
using
an
uncertainty
factor
of
100.
The
acute
RfD
for
the
general
population
is
0.12
mg/
kg/
day,
based
on
the
NOAEL
of
12.5
mg/
kg
in
the
acute
neurotoxicity
study
and
an
uncertainty
factor
of
100.
The
acute
RfD
for
females
13
 
50
years
of
age
is
0.02
mg/
kg/
day,
based
on
the
NOAEL
of
2
mg/
kg/
day
observed
in
the
developmental
rat
toxicity
study
and
using
an
uncertainty
factor
of

The
Dietary
Exposure
Evaluation
Model
(
DEEMTM,
Exponent,
Inc.,
formerly
Novigen
Sciences,
Inc.,
Version
7.76)
was
used
to
conduct
the
assessment.
Margins
of

(
MOE)
were
calculated
based
on
an
acute
NOAEL
of
2
mg/
kg/
day
for
women
of
childbearing
age
and
a
NOAEL
of
12
mg/

for
children
and
the
general
population
(
Pesticide
Fact

for
Indoxacarb).
The
Tier

analysis
used
distributions
of

data
adjusted
for

percent
crop
treated.
Secondary
residues
in

iii.
Drinking
water.
Indoxacarb
is
highly
unlikely
to
contaminate
groundwater
resources
due
to
its
immobility
in
soil,
low
water
solubility,
high
soil
sorption,
and
moderate
soil
half­
life.
Based
on
the
PRZM/
EXAMS
and
SCI
 
GROW
models
the
estimated
environmental
concentrations
(
EECs)
of
indoxacarb
and
its
R­
enantiomer
for
acute
exposures
are
estimated
to
be
6.84
parts
per
billion
(
ppb)
for
surface
water
and
0.0025
ppb
for
ground
water.
The
EECs
for
chronic
exposures
are
estimated
to
be
0.316
ppb
for
surface
water
and
0.0025
ppb
for
ground
water.
Drinking
water
levels
of
comparisons
(
DWLOCs),
theoretical
upper
allowable
limits
on
the
pesticide's
concentration
in
drinking
water,
were
calculated
to
be
much
higher
than
the
EEC's.
The
chronic
DWLOC's
ranged
from
198
to
697
ppb.
The
acute
DWLOC's
ranged
from
440
to
3,890
ppb.
Thus,
exposure
via
drinking
water
is
acceptable.
2.
Non­
dietary
exposure.
Indoxacarb
product
registrations
for
residential
nonfood
uses
are
pending.
Nonoccupational
non­
dietary
exposure
for
DPX
 
MP062
has
been
estimated
to
be
extremely
small.
Therefore,
the
potential
for
non­
dietary
exposure
is
insignificant.

D.
Cumulative
Effects
EPA's
consideration
of
a
common
mechanism
of
toxicity
is
not
necessary
at
this
time
because
there
is
no
indication
that
toxic
effects
of
indoxacarb
would
be
cumulative
with
those
of
any
other
chemical
compounds.
Oxadiazine
chemistry
is
new,
and
indoxacarb
has
a
novel
mode
of
action
compared
to
currently
registered
active
ingredients.

E.
Safety
Determination
1.
U.
S.
population.
Dietary
and
occupational
exposure
will
be
the
major
routes
of
exposure
to
the
U.
S.
population,
and
ample
margins
of
safety
have
been
demonstrated
for
both
situations.
The
chronic
dietary
exposure
to
indoxacarb
is
0.000089
mg/
kg/
day,
which
utilizes
0.4%
of
the
RfD
for
the
overall
U.
S.
population,
using
mean
field
trial
values,
processing
factors
and
projected
peak
percent
crop
treated
values.
The
percent
of
the
acute
population
adjusted
dose
(
7.3%
aPAD)
for
the
overall
U.
S.
population
shows
that
an
adequate
margin
of
safety
exists.
Using
only
pesticide
handlers
exposure
data
base
(
PHED)
data
levels
A
and
B
(
those
with
a
high
level
of
confidence),
margin
of
exposure
(
MOEs)
for
occupational
exposure
are
650
for
mixer/
loaders
and
1,351
for
airblast
applicators
(
worst­
case).
Based
on
the
completeness
and
reliability
of
the
toxicity
data
and
the
conservative
exposure
assessments,
there
is
a
reasonable
certainty
that
no
harm
will
result
from
the
aggregate
exposure
of
residues
of
indoxacarb
including
all
anticipated
dietary
exposure
and
all
other
non­
occupational
exposures.
2.
Infants
and
children.
Chronic
dietary
exposure
of
the
most
highly
exposed
subgroup
in
the
population,
children
age
1
 
6
years,
is
0.000238
mg/
kg/
day
or
1.2%
of
the
RfD.
For
infants
(
non­
nursing,
<
1
yr.),
the
exposure
accounts
for
0.3%
of
the
RfD.
For
acute
exposure
at
the
99.9th
percentile
(
based
on
a
Tier
3
assessment)
the
exposure
was
0.013973
mg/
kg/
day
(
11.6%
a
PAD)
for
children
1
 
6
and
0.026036
mg/
kg/
day
(
21.7%
a
PAD)
for
non­
nursing
infants.
There
are
residential
uses
of
indoxa
carb
pending,
but
exposure
is
calculated
to
be
extremely
minimal.
The
estimated
levels
of
indoxa
carb
in
drinking
water
are
well
below
the
below
the
DWLOC.
Based
on
the
completeness
and
reliability
of
the
toxicity
data,
the
lack
of
toxicological
endpoints
of
special
concern,
the
lack
of
any
indication
that
children
are
more
sensitive
than
adults
to
indoxa
carb,
and
the
conservative
exposure
assessment,
there
is
a
reasonable
certainty
that
no
harm
will
result
to
infants
and
children
from
the
aggregate
exposure
of
residues
of
indoxa
carb,
including
all
anticipated
dietary
exposure
and
all
other
nonoccupational
exposures.
Accordingly,
there
is
no
need
to
apply
an
additional
safety
factor
for
infants
and
children.
