    II. Background
    
        During fiscal years 1990-1998, EPA published Notices in the Federal 
    Register announcing the availability of RED documents for the listed 
    pesticide active ingredients. These REDs were issued as final 
    documents, with a 60-day comment period. In these REDs, EPA provided 
    its regulatory position on the current registered uses of these 
    pesticides and set forth certain requirements for product 
    reregistration eligibility. No comments were submitted for the 
    following REDs: Acetic acid and salts, aliphatic alcohols, fosetyl-al, 
    asulam, bis(trichloromethyl)sulfon, M-cresol, dacthal, difenzoquat, 
    ethalfluralin, fosamine ammonium, HPMTS, methomyl, Na and Ca 
    hypochlorites, terbuthylazine, thiodicarb, and triclopyr. Comments were 
    submitted for the following RED documents but did not significantly 
    affect EPA's regulatory position: Furanone, hexazinone, 
    methylisothiazolinone, metribuzin, telone, propachlor, and terbacil.
        The NTIS publication number for the REDs subject to this notice are 
    presented below.
