REDs.
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.
