Natural Carcinogens To Be Investigated
______________________________________
The National Academy of Sciences (NAS) will initiate a two year study
by a panel of scientists on the impact of naturally occurring chemical
carcinogens on human health. NAS will convene a 19-member panel of scientists
to examine "the occurrence, toxicologic data, mechanism of causation of
cancer, including relative risk comparisons with synthetic carcinogens,"
according to the statement of task for the group. The study will include
assessment of the impact of these materials on the initiation, promotion,
and progression of tumors. The report is scheduled to be released in 1995.
For years some scientists, such as Bruce Ames from the University
of California at Berkeley, have contended that some naturally occurring
chemicals present health risks that may be greater than those posed by some
industrial chemicals and chemical pesticides that are tightly regulated.

Clinton Administration Proposes Strengthening The Nation's Pesticide
And Food Safety Laws
_______________________
The Clinton Administration has proposed comprehensive reforms of the
nation's pesticide and food safety laws to reduce the risks pesticides
pose to Americans, especially infants and children. The reforms were
presented at a joint House and Senate committee hearing by the Environmental
Protection Agency, the United States Department of Agriculture and the Food
and Drug Administration.
The reform package represents the first significant, realistic attempt to
improve and update the nation's food safety and pesticide laws in the last
20 years. It stems from the three agencies' joint commitment earlier this
year
to seek the reforms, which contain specific provisions to protect infants and
children, as well as incentives to achieve a real reduction in the use of
pesticides in the United States.
The Administration's reform package will:
Extend the strict FDA health-based standard of a
"reasonable certainty of no harm" for food safety
across the board for all pesticide treated foods,
including raw fruit and vegetables.
Initiate a USDA-EPA one year project to establish
commodity specific pesticide use reduction goals
to be met by 2000.
Require that most high risk pesticides meet the
safety standard within three years and all other
pesticides meet the standard within seven years.
Eliminate the consideration of economic benefits
in the pesticide review and approval process, except
in exceptional cases involving significant disruption
of the food supply and even then the benefit
consideration would be limited to only five years.
Mandate that EPA issue specific findings that a
tolerance is safe for infants and children.
Make it easier to remove from the market pesticides
suspected of posing a risk to health and the
environment and make lower-risk pesticides a top
priority in the approval process.
Significantly enhance the enforcement provisions of
existing laws for violations of statutes and regulations.
Establish a national goal for use of Integrated Pest
Management (IPM).
Prohibit the export of pesticides that have been banned
or voluntarily withdrawn in the United States because
of health concerns.
Protect farm workers from the hazards of working with
pesticides.
Under this proposal, EPA for the first time must identify--within six
months--all pesticide-residue levels on foods that may exceed the safety
standard. Within three years, regulatory action must be taken against the
highest risk pesticides. Within seven years, EPA must officially have
reviewed all pesticide-residue levels, or tolerances, to ensure that all foods
are safe from unacceptable risks from pesticides.
The legislative proposals call for setting tolerances or allowable
pesticide residues at levels that ensure a "reasonable certainty of no harm to
consumers of food," the same strict standard FDA applies to food additives
today and the same standard recommended by the National Academy of Sciences.
The proposal also calls for a seven year phase-out of all pesticides that do
not meet the "no harm" standard. If the pesticide is a potential carcinogen,
the residue can pose no more than a negligible risk.
Other provisions call for more comprehensive surveys of food consumed by
children of all ages, races and geographic areas. Under the proposals, EPA
and USDA would more accurately identify the foods children eat in large
quantities and to focus on child safety when setting tolerances for these
foods.
Some of the other major proposals include:
- provisions for giving greater priority to safer
and reduced-risk pesticides;
- a requirement to "sunset" all pesticide registrations
every 15 years to ensure they either meet the public
health standards or are automatically cancelled;
- a phase down and phase out of those pesticide uses
which credible science indicates may pose a significant
risk to the public or the environment;
- authority to suspend the immediate use of a pesticide
in the face of significant potential risks without
also having to take simultaneously a time-consuming
cancellation action;
- incentives to the pesticide industry to support the
continued registration of lower-risk pesticides for
use on minor crops; and
- expedited cancellation procedures, which currently
can take up to five or more years to remove a pesticide
from the market.
The three agencies presented their testimony before a joint hearing of
the Senate Committee on Labor and Human Resources and the House Subcommittee
on Health and the Environment.

Pesticide Registration Notice Issued By EPA
____________________________________________
PR Notice 93-9
Based on the input and recommendations received from the written public
comments and the workshop, EPA has developed both short- and long-term
strategies to implement a comprehensive Reduced-Risk Policy.
Regarding the long-term strategy, the Administrator has identified four
prime areas for action in order to fully implement a Reduced-Risk Pesticide
Program:
1. Develop criteria for identifying lower risk pesticides and use them
as a factor in scheduling reviews.
2. Streamline the overall registration process.
3. Make more information about pesticides available to users and others
through the improvement of pesticide labels and the development of
other information resources to permit more informed choices in the
marketplace.
4. Consider rewarding developers of reduced-risk pesticides through
possible statutory changes to extend the period of exclusive use of
data under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act
(FIFRA), or to extend the period of patent protection.
EPA realizes that accomplishing these four objectives is necessary for
the successful implementation of a formal policy; however, making positive
strides in these areas will require both significant time and resources. In
order to capture some of the potential benefits of such a program while the
above longer term projects are in progress, the Agency is inviting registrants
to participate in a short-term interim strategy. Under this voluntary
approach, all applicants who believe they have developed a pesticide product
containing a new active ingredient that may be characterized as presenting
reduced risk to human health and the environment are invited to submit
rationales to substantiate their claims.
Guidelines for Content of Reduced-Risk Rationales
While participation in the reduced-risk pesticides program is voluntary,
those who elect to participate should fully address all of the following
areas: (a) human health effects; (b) environmental fate and effects; (c)
other hazards; (d) risk discussion; and (e) pest resistance and management.
The Agency will consider all of these areas in setting priorities for review
of these applications. However, these may not be the exclusive factors in all
cases. If applicants identify additional criteria that substantiate the
argument that their product is indeed a reduced-risk pesticide, then EPA
invites those applicants to submit rationales with any supporting data to
verify such claims. The Agency will consider this additional information.
Applicants' documentation should contain a discussion of the inherent
reduced-risk properties of their product, as well as a comparison of those
properties with the properties of the product's alternatives where
appropriate. In considering the alternatives, the applicant should address
all pesticide products registered for the same use(s) proposed in the
application. Please note that the Agency does not expect the applicant to
perform any additional testing to derive the data necessary to develop
rationales for reduced risk. If any of the following information is not
known, that fact should be noted in the rationale.
A. Human Health
Clearly identify the portion of the rationale which addresses the
potential effects of the product on human health including each of the
following aspects of the product and its use:
1. Acute Toxicity of the active ingredient and the formulations.
2. Reproductive, Developmental, Mutagenic and Neurotoxic Properties of
the active ingredient.
3. Oncogenic and Other Chronic Effects of the active ingredient.
B. Environmental Fate and Effects
Clearly identify the portion of the rationale which addresses the
potential ecological effects of the product and its environmental fate.
Address each of the following aspects of the product and its use:
1. Mammalian Acute Toxicity
2. Avian Acute and Subacute Toxicity
3. Avian Reproductive Toxicity
4. Fish Acute and Chronic Toxicity
5. Aquatic Invertebrate Toxicity
6. Honeybee Acute Contact Toxicity
7. Effects on Terrestrial Plant Growth
8. Effects on Aquatic Plant Growth
9. Potential Exposure to Non-target Organisms
10. Environmental Persistence (Soil and Water)
11. Mobility in Soil and Water
12. Transport in Air (Spray Drift and Volatility)
13. Bioaccumulation as Indicated by the Octanol/Water Partition
Coefficient
C. Other Hazards
Clearly identify the portion of the rationale which addresses other
potential human health and environmental hazards produced by the following:
1. Potential to deplete stratospheric ozone thus increasing
ultraviolet radiation.
2. Potential to present a hazard through storage transportation
mixing use or disposal based on its physical or chemical
characteristics:
a. stability
b. flammability
c. corrosion characteristics
d. explodability
e. oxidizing or reducing action
f. storage stability
D. Risk Discussion
Clearly identify the portion of the rationale which addresses the
following items:
1. Discuss the information which supports the claims that the new
active ingredient presents reduced toxicity, reduced exposure to
humans or non-target organisms, or reduced environmental burden.
Where alternative, registered pesticides or pest control practices exist,
make a qualitative comparison between the risks posed by the new active
ingredient under consideration and the other pesticides registered for that
use, or the other current pest control practices.
E. Pest Resistance and Management
Clearly identify the portion of the rationale which addresses the
following items:
1. Describe how the new product addresses the development of pest
resistance, either to the new product itself or to existing
pesticides registered for the same use.
2. Discuss the suitability of the new product for use in, or
encouraging the adoption of, Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
programs. This should include information on the effects of the
pesticide on natural predators of the target pest, if such
information is known.

Pesticide Rinsate Policy
________________________
The following Pesticide Rinsate Policy was prepared for the Pesticide
Users Advisory Committee (PUAC) meeting and addresses the topics of: Pesticide
Formulations That Require Dilution Before Use, and Pesticide Formulations That
Are Ready-To-Use. If you have any questions about this Policy, please call
Phyllis Flaherty at (703) 308-8383. (From: EPA, John Neylan, III)
Pesticide Formulations That Require Dilution Before Use
It is permissible to rinse (triple rinse or power rinse) the containers
of pesticides that require dilution before use with the diluent specified on
the product's label, unless prohibited by the label. If no diluent is
specified, water must be used as the diluent. If the resulting rinsate is
to be applied to a crop or site, it must be applied to a crop or site listed
on the product's label. Such rinsate cannot be applied to fallow land or
any site or crop not listed on the product's label.
Pesticide Formulations That Are Ready-To-Use
It is permissible to rinse (triple rinse or power rinse) the containers
of pesticides that are ready-to-use formulations with water, unless another
diluent is specified or such dilution is prohibited by the label. If the
resulting rinsate is to be applied to a crop or site, it must be applied to a
crop or site listed on the product's label. Such rinsate cannot be applied
to fallow land or any crop or site not listed on the product's label.

Boric Acid And Its Salts, Borax (Sodium Borate Decahydrate),
Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate, Boric Oxide (Boric Anhydride),
Sodium Borate And Sodium Metaborate; Tolerance Exemptions
_______________________________________________________________
This document establishes exemptions from the requirement of a tolerance
for residues of boric acid and its salts, borax (sodium borate decahydrate),
disodium octaborate tetrahydrate, boric oxide (boric anhydride), sodium
borate, and sodium metaborate, in or on raw agricultural commodities when used
as an active ingredient in insecticides, herbicides, or fungicides preharvest
or postharvest in accordance with good agricultural practices. This
regulation was requested by Bushwacker Associates, Galveston, TX. The
tolerance exemptions supersede the tolerances for boron established under 40
CFR 180.271; therefore, the document also removes . 180.271.

Cancellation of Pesticides for Non-Payment of 1993 Registration Maintenance
Fees
___________________________
Section 4(i)(5)(A) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide
Act (FIFRA) requires each registrant of a pesticide to pay an annual
maintenance fee to keep their pesticide registrations in effect. The fee due
on January 15, 1993, has gone unpaid for about 1,050 registrations. Section
4(i)(5)(D) of FIFRA provides that the Administrator may cancel these
registrations by order and without a hearing; orders to cancel all but a few
of them have been issued within the past few days. The Agency is deferring
cancellation for some of these registrations, however, to permit time for
affected users to explore alternatives to cancellation directly with the
registrants.
In late December, 1992, all registrants were sent lists of their active
registrations, along with forms and instructions for responding. They were
asked to identify which of their registrations they wished to maintain in
effect, and to calculate and remit the appropriate maintenance fees. A notice
of intent to cancel was also sent in mid-March to registrants who still did
not respond and to registrants who responded, but did not pay the fee for all
of their registrations.
Maintenance fees have been paid for about 17,400 section 3 registrations,
or about 95 percent of the registrations on file in December. Fees have been
paid for about 2,500 section 24(c) registrations, or about 93 percent of the
total on file in December. Cancellations for non-payment of the maintenance
fee affect about 850 section 3 registrations and about 200 section 24(c)
registrations.
The EPA analyses indicate that many of these cancellations are unlikely
to affect pesticide markets or users. For example, more than 60 percent of
the section 3 registrations for which no fee was paid are no longer in
production, and their disappearance from the market will cause no adverse
impact.
The remaining cancellations, 490 section 3 registrations and 117 section
24(c) registrations issued in the past 5 years, have been the principal focus
of our further impact analyses. We anticipate two types of impact for the
bulk of these cancellations. First, some of these disappearing registrations
will be survived in the market by substantially identical registrations.
These substantially identical products may not, however, be readily available
wherever a disappearing product was sold, so there may be local or regional
disruptions while distribution patterns are adjusted. We expect these
disruptions to be minor and temporary.
Second, in some cases unique non-agricultural uses will disappear,
although the active ingredients will remain available for different uses in
other products. When this situation occurs, there may be more serious impacts
on users of the canceled products. Once again, existing stocks of the
canceled products already in channels of trade will be usable to mitigate
these impacts in the short term. For the longer term the mechanisms of
section 3 amendments and 24(c) registrations will remain available to obtain
replacement registrations.
An important impact arises in cases where unique agricultural uses would
disappear. The 1990 Farm Bill amended FIFRA to allow the Administrator to
reduce or waive maintenance fees for minor agricultural uses when she
determines that the fee would be likely to cause significant impact on the
availability of the pesticide for the use. The Agency waived the fee for 18
registrations at the request of the registrants. The Agency has also
identified 26 more registrations for minor agricultural uses for which the
maintenance fee was not paid and for which no waiver was requested, and will
defer cancellation of these registrations for 90 days to permit affected users
to explore alternatives to cancellation. If the Agency is notified within 90
days of this notice at the address given above either (1) that the registrant
will continue to support the registration, or (2) that an agreement has been
reached to transfer the registration to another party, we will waive the
1993 maintenance fee and retain the registration in full active status.
It should be emphasized, however, that any such registrations would still be
subject to all requirements for reregistration, including reregistration fees
(except as they may be reduced through the statutory provisions for small
businesses or low volume uses).

Pesticide Tolerances; Revision Of Crop Groups
______________________________________________
EPA is proposing revisions to its pesticide tolerance crop grouping
regulations, which allow establishment of tolerances for multiple related
crops based upon data from a representative set of crops. The revisions would
create new crop subgroups, expand existing crop groups by adding new
commodities, and revise the representative crops in some groups. The current
crop grouping scheme has been underused since its establishment in 1983. EPA
believes that these revisions will promote greater use of crop grouping for
tolerance-setting purposes, and in particular will assist in retaining or
making available pesticides for minor crop uses. (A complete copy of these
proposed revisions can be obtained from CENET or by contacting PMEP- W.
Smith).
Written comments, identified by the document control number, [OPP-
300269], must be received on or before October 25, 1993. Submit comments to:
