II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    In the Federal Register of June 6, 2007 (72 FR 31221) (FRL-8122-7), 
EPA issued a proposed rule to revoke, remove, modify, and establish 
certain tolerances and/or tolerance exemption for residues for the 
fungicides captan, dodine, and fenarimol; the herbicides 2,4-D, DCPA, 
endothall, propyzamide, ethofumesate, dimethipin and fomesafen; and the 
insecticide permethrin. Also, the proposal of June 6, 2007 (72 FR 
31221), provided a 60-day comment period which invited public comment 
for consideration and for support of tolerance retention under the 
FFDCA standards.
    EPA is revoking, removing, modifying, and establishing specific 
tolerances for residues of the fungicides captan, dodine, and 
fenarimol; the herbicides 2,4-D, DCPA, endothall, propyzamide, 
ethofumesate, dimethipin and fomesafen; and the insecticide permethrin 
in or on the commodities listed in the regulatory text.
    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 FQPA. 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 certain 
tolerance actions to be implemented 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: 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: 
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.epa.gov/pesticides/reregistration/status.htm and in the 

pubic dockets EPA-HQ-OPP-2007-0097 and also EPA-HQ-OPP-2005-0266 
(dodine); EPA-HQ-OPP-2004-0370 (endothall); EPA-HQ-OPP-2004-0380 
(dimethipin); EPA-HQ-OPP-2002-0159 (propyzamide); EPA-HQ-OPP-2004-0346 
(ethofumesate); EPA-HQ-OPP-2004-0385 (permethrin); EPA-HQ-OPP-2004-0167 
(2,4-D); EPA-HQ-OPP-2004-0296 (captan) and EPA-HQ-OPP-2002-0250 and 
EPA-HQ-OPP-2005-0459 (fenarimol) at: http://www.regulations.gov.

    In this final rule, EPA is revoking certain tolerances and 
tolerance exemptions because these specific tolerances and exemptions 
correspond to uses no longer current or registered under FIFRA in the 
United States. 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 
imported into the United States. It is EPA's general practice to revoke 
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 domestic commodities 
legally treated.
    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 section 408(f) order requesting 
additional data or issuance of a 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 June 6, 
2007 (72 FR 31221), EPA received two comments during the 60-day public 
comment period, as follows:
    Comment--general. A comment was received from a private citizen 
that expressed concern with pesticide residues in general, that 
tolerance levels should be zero, and to disallow the use of numerous 
toxic chemicals.
    Agency Response. The private citizen's comment did not take issue 
with the Agency's conclusion that specific tolerances in the proposed 
rule should be revoked, established and/or modified. The Agency 
conducts a detailed risk assessment to determine whether establishing 
and/or increasing tolerances is safe; i.e., there is a reasonable 
certainty that no harm will result from aggregate exposure to the 
pesticide chemical residue in accordance with FFDCA section 408, 21 
U.S.C. 346a. Also, it is EPA's general practice to propose revocation 
of tolerances for residues of pesticide active ingredients on crop uses 
for which FIFRA registrations no longer exist. 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 cancellations of pesticide products or deletion of 
uses, declaring certain uses ineligible or not yet eligible and many 
other measures.
    Comment--permethrin: A comment was received noting an inconsistency 
for the permethrin tolerance proposed in/on leaf petioles subgroup 4B 
at 5.0 ppm. The Agency proposed a tolerance for permethrin in/on leaf 
petioles subgroup 4B at 5.0 ppm when there is an existing tolerance for 
vegetable, leafy, except brassica, group 4 at 20 ppm, which is 
inclusive of the leaf petiole subgroup 4B. To correct this 
inconsistency, the commenter suggested either the proposed tolerance 
for leaf petioles should be dropped or the vegetable, leafy, except 
brassica, group 4 should be changed to leafy greens subgroup 4A.
    Agency Response: The Agency proposed a tolerance of 5.0 ppm in/on 
leaf petioles subgroup 4B based on available field trial data that 
indicate residues of permethrin as high as 4.0 ppm in/on celery. The 
crop group tolerance in/on vegetable, leafy, except brassica, group 4 
at 20 ppm was already in place and is inclusive of the leaf petioles 
subgroup 4B. Based on the proposal, tolerances of both 5.0 ppm and 20 
ppm would exist on the commodities that are in both the leaf petioles 
subgroup 4B and the vegetable, leafy, except brassica, group 4, 
inadvertently creating an inconsistency. To correct this inconsistency, 
the Agency agrees with the commenter that

[[Page 52015]]

the existing permethrin tolerance expression in/on vegetable, leafy, 
except brassica, group 4 at 20 ppm should be revised to leafy greens 
subgroup 4A at 20 ppm and establish the tolerance in/on leaf petioles 
subgroup 4B at 5.0 ppm as proposed.
    The Agency did not receive comments on the following chemicals: 
Captan, 2,4-D, DCPA, dodine, dimethipin, endothall, ethofumesate, 
fenarimol, and formesafen. Therefore, the Agency is finalizing, with 
the exception of the fenarimol tolerance, the amendments proposed in 
the Federal Register of June 6, 2007 (72 FR 31221). The fenarimol 
tolerance on apple proposed at 0.3 ppm cannot be finalized at this time 
due to changes that have occurred that may affect the risk assessment 
for this chemical. For a detailed discussion of the Agency's rationale 
for the establishments, revocations, and modifications to the 
tolerances, refer to the June 6, 2007proposed rule.

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 
FQPA. The safety finding determination is found in detail in each 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. of the proposed rule.
    EPA has issued post-FQPA REDs for 2,4-D, dodine, DCPA, endothall, 
ethofumesate, permethrin, and dimethipin, and TREDs for captan, 
propyzamide, and fenarimol, whose REDs were both completed prior to 
FQPA. 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 FQPA 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 propose revocation of 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. 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?

    These actions become effective on the date of publication of this 
final rule in the Federal Register because their associated uses have 
been canceled for several years. The Agency believes that treated 
commodities have had sufficient time for passage 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 section, 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, and (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.

III. Are the Actions Consistent with International Obligations?

    The tolerance revocations in this final rule are not discriminatory 
and are designed to ensure that both domestically produced and imported 
foods meet the food safety standard established by the FFDCA. The same 
food safety standards apply to domestically produced and imported 
foods.
    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 levels (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 Unit II.A. Specific tolerance actions in this 
final rule and how they compare to Codex MRLs (if any) are discussed in 
Unit II.A. of the proposed rule.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    In this final rule, EPA is establishing tolerances under FFDCA 
section 408(e), and modifying and revoking specific tolerances 
established under FFDCA section 408. The Office of Management

[[Page 52016]]

and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions (e.g., 
establishment and modification of a tolerance and tolerance revocation 
for which extraordinary circumstances do not exist) from review under 
Executive Order 12866, entitledRegulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 
51735, October 4, 1993). Because this final rule has been exempted from 
review under Executive Order 12866 due to its lack of significance, 
this final 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 104-113, 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), 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 final rule, the Agency hereby certifies 
that this action will not have a significant negative 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 of this final rule). 
Furthermore, for the pesticides named in this final rule, the Agency 
knows of no extraordinary circumstances that exist 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, entitledFederalism 
(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 the FFDCA. For these same reasons, the Agency 
has determined that this final rule does not have any ``tribal 
implications'' as described in Executive Order 13175, entitled 
Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR 
67249, 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 final 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 final rule.
