for
CYPERMETHRIN,
calculated
using
the

PRZM/
EXAMS
and
the
Tier
1
aquatic
model
SCI­
GROW,
respectively,
for
use
in
the
human
health
risk
assessment.

The
Estimated
Drinking

for
cypermethrin
were
calculated
based
on
a
maximum
application
rate
of
0.6
lb

i./
A/
season.
The
acute
drinking
water
concentration
in
surface
water
is
1.04
ppb
of
cypermethrin.
The
cancer/
chronic
drinking
water
concentration
is
0.013
ppb,
using
the
NC
cotton
scenario.
These
values
represent
the
mean
value
over
a
30­
year
period.
Various
other
scenarios
were
also
explored
(
CA,
MS
and
TX
cotton,
CA
onion
and
CA
lettuce),
but
they
consistently
yielded
lower
EDWCs.
The
SCI­
GROW
generated
EDWC
(
for
cotton
or
lettuce,
highest
application
rate)
is
0.0036
ppb
of
cypermethrin,
which
is
recommended
for
use,
both
for
acute
and
chronic
exposures.

Introduction
Cypermethrin
is
a
pyrethroid
insecticide
with
both
agricultural
and
non
agricultural
applications.
For
agricultural
uses
in
the
United
States,
cypermethrin
is
predominantly
used
to
control
pests
on
cotton,
lettuce,
pecans
and
onions,
with
the
predominant
use
being
cotton
(
80%
of
the
total
agricultural
usage).
It
may
be
used
alone
or
in
conjunction
with
organophosphate
pesticides
to
control
pests
such
as
budworm
and
bollworm
populations
on
cotton
and
worms
and
aphids
on
lettuce.
Application
rates
and
the
timing
of
these
applications
vary
by
crop
type.
Non
agricultural
uses
of
cypermethrin
include
pest
management
inside
greenhouses,
food
processing,
storage,
and
dairy
facilities
(
non
contact
food
uses
only),
wood
treatment
applications,
animal
kennels,
commercial
storage
facilities,
automobile
and
taxi
services,
and
applications
to
drainage
systems.

Cypermethrin
is
expected
to
have
little
mobility
in
soil
surfaces
and
leaching
into
groundwater
is
not
expected
to
be
an
important
environmental
fate
process
(
mean
Koc=
141,700).
Volatilization
is
not
expected
to
be
an
important
transport
process
since
cypermethrin
has
a
relatively
low
vapor
pressure
and
Henry's
Law
constant
(
2.5x10­
9
mm
Hg
and
3.4x10­
7
Atm­
m3/
mole,
respectively).
Cypermethrin
is
moderately
persistent
in
the
environment
and
degrades
through
a
combination
of
biotic
and
abiotic
mechanisms.
Cypermethrin
hydrolyzes
slowly
at
acidic
and
neutral
pH,
but
degrades
in
a
matter
of
days
under
alkaline
conditions.
Cypermethrin
is
more
light
stable
than
the
first
or
second
generation
pyrethroids
like
allethrin
and
resmethrin,
but
still
undergoes
photolysis
in
water,
with
half­
lives
of
about
a
month
or
more
in
distilled
water
(
half­
life
36.2
days).
The
rate
of
photolysis
appears
to
be
enhanced
in
natural
waters
(
which
contain
photosensitizing
agents
like
humic
and
fulvic
acids),
where
the
accelerated
degradation
results
in
half­
lives
of
a
few
days
or
less.
Under
both
aerobic
and
anaerobic
soil
metabolism
conditions,
cypermethrin
biodegrades
relatively
slowly,
with
half­
lives
on
the
order
of
about
2
months,
but
in
aquatic
metabolism
conditions,
it
biodegrades
more
rapidly,
with
half­
lives
on
the
order
of
one
to
two
weeks.
The
primary
degradation
products
of
cypermethrin
are
cis­
and
trans­
DCVA
[(
±
)
cis­
or
trans­
3­(
2,2­
dichloroethenyl)­
2,2­
dimethylcyclopropane
carboxylic
acid],
3­
phenoxybenzaldehyde,
and
3­
PBA
[
3­
phenoxybenzoic
acid].
They
result
from
cleavage
of
the
ester
linkage
of
the
cypermethrin
molecule.

Estimated
Drinking
Water
Concentrations
(
EDWC)
were
calculated
for
groundwater
and
surface
water
utilizing
the
tier
1
aquatic
model
SCI­
GROW,
and
tier
2
aquatic
model
PRZM/
EXAMS,
respectively.

2.
SCI­
GROW
The
tier
1
aquatic
model
SCI­
GROW
was
employed
to
estimate
levels
of
cypermethrin
that
may
potentially
reach
groundwater.
SCI­
GROW
is
a
screening
model
which
is
used
to
estimate
pesticide
concentrations
in
vulnerable
ground
water.
Pesticide
concentrations
estimated
by
SCIGROW
represent
conservative
or
high­
end
exposure
values
because
the
model
is
based
on
ground­
water
monitoring
studies
which
were
conducted
by
applying
pesticides
at
maximum
allowed
rates
and
frequency,
to
vulnerable
sites
(
i.
e.,
shallow
aquifers,
sandy,
permeable
soils,
and
substantial
rainfall
and/
or
irrigation
to
maximize
leaching).
In
most
cases,
the
majority
of
the
use
­
3­
areas
will
have
ground
water
that
is
less
vulnerable
to
contamination
than
the
areas
used
to
derive
the
SCI­
GROW
estimate.
The
SCI­
GROW
input
parameters
for
cypermethrin
are
shown
in
Table

GROW

considered
in
this
assessment.

PRZM/
EXAMS
Drinking
Water
Concentrations
The
tier
2
linked
model
PRZM/
EXAMS
was
employed
to
calculate
surface
water
concentrations
(
EDWCs)
of
cypermethrin
in
an
index
reservoir,
which
is
used
for
assessment
of
vulnerable
surface
drinking
water
sources.
The
Index
Reservoir
is
intended
as
a
drop­
in
replacement
for
the
standard
pond
for
use
in
drinking
water
assessments.
It
is
used
in
a
manner
similar
to
the
standard
pond
except
that
flow
rates
are
calibrated
to
be
consistent
with
local
weather
conditions.
The
morphology
of
the
reservoir
and
its
watershed
are
designed
to
correspond
with
those
of
Shipman
City
Lake,
a
small
reservoir
in
Illinois
selected
to
represent
small
runoff­
vulnerable
drinking
water
surface
supplies
in
agricultural
areas.
It
is
noted
that
the
surface
water
concentrations
generated
from
EXAMS
were
multiplied
by
Percent
Crop
Area
(
PCA)
factors.
In
1999,
EFED
proposed
using
PCA
factors
in
pesticide
exposure
assessments
to
account
for
the
fact
that
a
watershed
of
­
4­
sufficient
size
to
supply
a
drinking
water
source
is
not
likely
to
be
devoted
entirely
to
growing
crops
(
EPA
2003a).
Generally
a
PCA
factor
of
0.87
is
employed
in
drinking
water
assessments
unless
the
assessment
is
for
a
crop
for
which
there
is
a
refined
PCA
estimate.
In
this
Drinking
Water
Assessment,
the
EDWCs
were
obtained
by
multiplication
of
the
output
concentration
of
PRZM/
EXAMS
by
0.20
for
the
cotton
scenarios
and
0.87
for
the
CA
onion
and
CA
lettuce
crop
scenarios.
The
PRZM/
EXAMS
input
parameters
are
shown
in
Tables
2
and
3.
They
were
selected
according
to
current
EFED
guidelines
for
the
selection
of
input
parameters
for
aquatic
models.

Four
PRZM
scenarios
were
modeled
for
cotton
crop
usage
:
California,
Mississippi,
North
Carolina
and
Texas.
Each
of
these
were
modeled
using
the
same
application
rates
and
use
patterns.
The
California
scenario
is
based
on
data
from
Fresno
County
in
the
Central
Valley
region.
The
Mississippi
scenario
arises
from
Yazoo
County.
The
North
Carolina
PRZM
scenario
is
representative
of
the
Piedmont/
Coastal
Plain
region.
The
Texas
scenario
is
typically
planted
in
the
spring
with
crop
maturity
occurring
roughly
4
months
after
the
planting
date.
While
late
season
planting
can
occur
up
to
June
in
many
southern
states,
it
is
not
advisable
to
begin
planting
after
mid
May
because
of
the
steep
decline
in
yield
(
the
best
yields
usually
occur
with
early
season
planting,
optimal
soil
temperature
and
moisture
and
air
temperature).
Harvest
typically
occurs
from
September
1,
through
December.
It
is
not
advisable
to
use
pyrethroid
insecticides
on
cotton
crops
prior
to
July
1
unless
infestations
are
high
in
order
to
avoid
insect
resistence
later
in
the
season
(
Roof
2004).

The
field
used
to
represent
onion
production
in
California
is
located
in
Kern
County
in
the
San
Joaquin
Valley,
although
onion
production
areas
are
quite
extensive
(
San
Joaquin,
Coastal­
Intermediate
Region,
Imperial
Valley,
southern
and
central
coastal
regions,
the
high
desert
areas
of
Los
Angeles
County
and
the
northern
mountain
valleys).
Bulb
onions
are
planted
from
September
through
May
and
harvesting
begins
in
April
or
May
and
completed
by
September.

Only
one
validated
PRZM
scenario
currently
exists
for
lettuce
(
California).
Lettuce
is
a
year
­
6­
round
crop
in
California,
so
the
application
timing
of
cypermethrin
can
vary
(

Since

in
only
a

it

SCI­

estimates
likely
groundwater
concentrations
if
the
pesticide
is
used
at
the
maximum
allowable
rate
in
areas
where
groundwater
is
exceptionally
vulnerable
to
contamination.
In
most
cases,
a

If

flux
output
data
from
PRZM
are
used
as
chemical
loadings
to
the
EXAMS
surface
water
program
in
order
to
predict
the
EECs.
A
graphical
user
interface
(
pe4v01.
pl)
developed
by
the
EPA
(
http://
www.
epa.
gov/
oppefed1/
models/
water)
was
used
to
facilitate
inputting
chemical
and
use
specific
parameters
into
the
appropriate
PRZM
input
files
(
inp)
and
EXAMS
chemical
files.

PRZM
is
a
one­
dimensional,
dynamic,
compartmental
model
that
can
be
used
to
simulate
chemical
movement
in
unsaturated
soil
systems
within
and
immediately
below
the
plant
root
zone.
It
has
two
major
components:
hydrology
(
and
hydraulics)
and
chemical
transport.
The
hydrologic
component
for
calculating
runoff
and
erosion
is
based
on
the
Soil
Conservation
Service
curve
number
technique
and
the
Universal
Soil
Loss
Equation.
Evapotranspiration
is
estimated
either
directly
from
pan
evaporation
data,
or
based
on
an
empirical
formula.
Water
movement
is
simulated
by
the
use
of
generalized
soil
parameters,
including
field
capacity,
wilting
point,
and
saturation
water
content.

The
chemical
transport
component
can
simulate
pesticides
or
other
chemicals.
For
pesticides,
the
transport
component
can
simulate
pesticide
application
on
the
soil
or
on
the
plant
foliage.
Biodegradation
can
also
be
considered
in
the
root
zone.
Dissolved,
adsorbed,
and
vapor­
phase
­
8­
concentrations
in
the
soil
are
estimated
by
simultaneously
considering
the
processes
of
pesticide
uptake
by
plants,
surface
runoff,
erosion,
decay,
volatilization,
foliar
washoff,
advection,
dispersion,
and
retardation.
For
nitrogen,
simulation
of
surface
applications,
atmospheric
deposition,
and
septic
effluent
discharge
may
all
be
simulated.

EXAMS
is
a
model
that
has
a
set
of
process
modules
that
link
fundamental
chemical
properties
to
limnological
processes
that
control
the
kinetics
and
transport
of
chemicals
in
aquatic
systems.
It
provides
facilities
for
steady
state
or
long­
term
evaluation
of
chronic
chemical
discharges,
initialvalue
approaches
for
studying
short­
term
contaminant
releases,
and
full
kinetic
simulations
that
allow
for
monthly
variation
in
mean
climatological
factors,
and
changes
in
contaminant
loadings
on
daily
time
scales.
It
is
fairly
and
relatively
complex
model
that
requires
more
input
variables,
ranging
from
hydro­
geological
and
weather
data
to
pesticide
physicochemical
properties,
mobility
coefficients,
and
degradation
rate
constants
in
the
aqueous
and
sediment
phases.

PRZM
CROP
SCENARIOS:

Four
PRZM
scenarios
exist
for
cotton
crop
usage
:
California,
Mississippi,
North
Carolina
and
Texas.
Each
of
these
were
modeled
using
the
same
application
rates
and
use
patterns.
The
California
scenario
is
based
on
data
from
Fresno
County
in
the
Central
Valley
region
using
a
Twisselman
clay
as
the
representative
soil
for
this
region.
This
soil
is
a
fine,
mixed,
calcareous,
thermic
Typic
Torriorthents
of
hydrologic
group
C.
The
Mississippi
scenario
arises
from
Yazoo
County
and
uses
a
Loring
silt
loam
as
the
representative
soil.
Loring
silt
loam
is
a
fine­
silty,
mixed,
active,
thermic,
Qxyaquic
Fragiudalfs
of
hydrologic
group
C.
The
representative
soil
in
the
North
Carolina
PRZM
scenario
is
a
Boswell
fine
sandy
loam
of
hydrologic
group
D,
characteristic
of
the
Piedmont/
Coastal
Plain
region.
The
soil
selected
to
simulate
the
Texas
scenario
is
a
Crockett
fine
sandy
loam.
Crockett
fine
sandy
loam
is
a
fine,
smectitic,
thermic
Udertic
Paleustalfs
of
hydrologic
group
C.
Since
cotton
growth
requires
a
relatively
long
period
of
warm
temperatures
(
190­
210
days
at
temperatures
of
60
oF
and
above),
it
is
typically
planted
in
the
spring
with
crop
maturity
occurring
roughly
4
months
after
the
planting
date.
While
late
season
planting
can
occur
up
to
June
in
many
southern
states,
it
is
not
advisable
to
begin
planting
after
mid
May
because
of
the
steep
decline
in
yield
(
the
best
yields
usually
occur
with
early
season
planting,
optimal
soil
temperature
and
moisture
and
air
temperature).
Harvest
typically
occurs
from
September
1,
through
December.
It
is
not
advisable
to
use
pyrethroid
insecticides
on
cotton
crops
prior
to
July
1
unless
infestations
are
high
in
order
to
avoid
insect
resistence
later
in
the
season
(
Roof
2004).

The
field
used
to
represent
onion
production
in
California
is
located
in
Kern
County
in
the
San
Joaquin
Valley,
although
onion
production
areas
are
quite
extensive
(
San
Joaquin,
Coastal­
Intermediate
Region,
Imperial
Valley,
southern
and
central
coastal
regions,
the
high
desert
areas
of
Los
Angeles
County
and
the
northern
mountain
valleys).
According
to
the
1997
Census
of
Agriculture,
California
is
the
major
producer
of
onions
for
the
market.
Bulb
onions
are
planted
from
September
through
May
and
harvesting
begins
in
April
or
May
and
completed
by
September.
Onions
are
cools
season,
biennial
plants
that
are
commercially
grown
as
an
annual.
Plant
canopy
can
approach
100
percent
in
some
narrow
row
fields
grown
under
drip
irrigation.
Irrigation
is
required
to
avoid
seed
or
plant
dry
out.
Onions
can
grow
on
a
wide
range
of
soils.
­
9­
The
soil
selected
to
represent
the
field
is
Ciervo
clay.
Ciervo
clay,
is
a
fine,
semetic,
thermic
Vertic
Haplocambids.
These
soils
are
often
used
for
onion
and
other
truck
crop
production
under
irrigation.
The
Ciervo
clay
has
very
slow
permeability.
Ciervo
clay
is
a
Hydrologic
Group
D
soil.

Only
one
validated
PRZM
scenario
currently
exists
for
lettuce
(
California).
The
representative
soil
type
is
a
Placentia
sandy
loam
(
hydrologic
Group
D).
Lettuce
is
a
year­
round
crop
in
California,
so
the
application
timing
of
cypermethrin
can
vary
(
Jackson
et
al.
1996).
Lettuce
is
usually
planted
at
depths
of
approximately
1/
8
to
1/
4
inches
primarily
on
40­
inch
raised
beds
with
2
seedlines
per
bed.
For
a
midsummer
planting,
the
harvest
usually
begins
70­
80
days
later
and
cypermethrin
is
typically
foliar
applied
as
needed
following
emergence.
