§ 163.10 - Withdrawal of request for certification pending clarification or completion.

In some cases it may be necessary for the Director to notify the petitioner of his proposal to certify that the pesticide chemical does not appear to be useful for some or all of the purposes for which a tolerance or exemption is sought only because the data submitted by the petitioner are not sufficiently clear or complete to justify a finding of usefulness. In such cases the petitioner may withdraw his request for certification pending its clarification or the obtaining of additional data, and no further action will be taken with respect to the making of the certification until the request for certification is resubmitted. Upon the resubmission of the request for certification, the time limitation within which final certification is required to be made will begin to run anew from the date of the resubmission.
