Coordination of Labeling Issues Changes; Notice of Availability
and Request for Comments
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA is soliciting comments on the Agency's proposed policy to
coordinate all EPA-initiated labeling changes through the newly formed
Labeling Unit and to establish an annual date by which registrants will
normally implement labeling changes specified in Pesticide Regulation
(PR) Notices, Federal Register Notices, or other documents. This policy
is described in a draft PR Notice entitled, ``Coordination of Labeling
Issues and Changes'' which is available upon request. Interested
parties may request a copy of the Agency's proposed policy as set forth
in the ADDRESSES unit of this notice.
DATES: Written comments, identified by the docket number [OPP-00398],
must be received on or before February 27, 1995.
ADDRESSES: The draft PR Notice is available from Melissa L. Chun, By
mail: Registration Division (7505W), Office of Pesticide Programs,
Environmental Protection Agency, 401 M St., SW., Washington, DC 20460.

Information Section, Field Operations Division (7506C), Office of

Washington, DC 20460. In person bring comments to: Rm. 1128, CM #2,

will not be disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in
40 CFR part 2. A copy of the comment(s) that does not contain CBI must

Office location and telephone number: 6th Floor, Westfield Building,
2800 Crystal Drive, Arlington, VA, (703)308-8318.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The draft PR Notice describes the role of
the Labeling Unit in coordinating the Agency's pesticide labeling
activities and generally specifies October 1 as the annual compliance
date for all EPA-initiated label changes designated by FR Notice, PR
Notice, or other mechanism. The policy outlined in the draft PR Notice
will help streamline the Agency's processing of labeling changes,
improve the coordination of EPA's labeling activities and lessen the
economic impact on registrants of making labeling changes throughout
the year. This Federal Register notice announces the availability of
the draft PR Notice and solicits comment on the proposed policy. If,
after reviewing any comments, EPA determines that changes are
warranted, the Agency will revise the draft PR Notice prior to release.
