Electronic Availability: Electronic copies of this document and the

Environmental Sub-Set entry for this document under ``Laws and
Regulations'' (http://www.epa.gov/fedrgstr/).
EPA issued a notice, published in the Federal Register of May 21,
1998 (63 FR 27960) (FRL-5789-1), which announced that Premium
Compounded Products, LLC, Wilmington, DE 19802, had submitted
applications to register the pesticide products Migratrol R001 a
Manufacturing Use Product and Cuprous Chloride Technical (EPA File
Symbols 71280-G and 71280-R), containing the new active ingredient
cuprous chloride at 48.25% and 96.5% respectively, an active ingredient
not included in any previously registered products.
The applications were approved on September 30, 1998, as Migratrol
R001 and Cuprous Chloride Technical for formulating end-use plant
growth regulator products only (EPA Registration Numbers 71280-3 and
71280-1), respectively.
The Agency has considered all required data on risks associated
with the proposed use of cuprous chloride, and information on social,
economic, and environmental benefits to be derived from use.
Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of the pesticide and
its pattern of use, application methods and rates, and level and extent
of potential exposure. Based on these reviews, the Agency was able to
make basic health safety determinations which show that use of cuprous
chloride when used in accordance with widespread and commonly
recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable adverse
effects to the environment.
More detailed information on this registration is contained in an
EPA Pesticide Fact Sheet on cuprous chloride.
A paper copy of the fact sheet, which provides a summary
description of the pesticides, use patterns and formulations, science
findings, and the Agency's regulatory position and rationale, may be
