The proposed establishments, deletions, and revisions to the existing tolerances for cyfluthrin on raw agricultural commodities were requested to support changes in the directions for use on cereal grains. The existing tolerances were established to support the use of cyfluthrin on stored grains, a use that was canceled in 2005. The revised tolerances will cover residues of cyfluthrin resulting from foliar applications on cereal grains (except rice).

Beta-cyfluthrin is an enriched isomer of cyfluthrin. Currently, residues of beta-cyfluthrin are covered by the tolerances for cyfluthrin. In accordance with Agency preferences regarding tolerances for synthetic pyrethroids and their isomers, Bayer CropScience has proposed establishment of separate tolerances for beta-cyfluthrin. The proposed beta-cyfluthrin tolerances are at the same levels as those for cyfluthrin.

The notice of filing of PP 7E7200 referenced a summary of the petition prepared by Bayer CropScience, the registrant, which is available to the public in the docket, http://www.regulations.gov. Comments were received on the notice of filing. EPA's response to these comments is discussed in Unit IV.C.

III. Aggregate Risk Assessment and Determination of Safety

Section 408(b)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA allows EPA to establish a tolerance (the legal limit for a pesticide chemical residue in or on a food) only if EPA determines that the tolerance is “safe.” Section 408(b)(2)(A)(ii) of FFDCA defines “safe” to mean that “there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue, including all anticipated dietary exposures and all other exposures for which there is reliable information.” This includes exposure through drinking water and in residential settings, but does not include occupational exposure. Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA requires EPA to give special consideration to exposure of infants and children to the pesticide chemical residue in establishing a tolerance and to “ensure that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to infants and children from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue. . . .”

Consistent with section 408(b)(2)(D) of FFDCA, and the factors specified in section 408(b)(2)(D) of FFDCA, EPA has reviewed the available scientific data and other relevant information in support of this action. EPA has sufficient data to assess the hazards of and to make a determination on aggregate exposure for the petitioned-for tolerances for residues of cyfluthrin and beta-cyfluthrin as proposed by the registrant and specified in Unit II. EPA's assessment of exposures and risks associated with establishing these tolerances follows.

On February 27, 2008 the Agency published a final rule (73 FR 10390) (FRL-8350-3) establishing tolerances for residues of cyfluthrin in or on grass, forage, fodder and hay group 17, forage at 12 ppm; grass, forage, fodder and hay, group 17, hay at 50 ppm; beet, sugar, roots at 0.10 ppm; and beet, sugar, dried pulp at 1.0 ppm. When the Agency conducted the risk assessments in support of the February 2008 tolerance action, it considered all of the changes to cyfluthrin/beta-cyfluthrin tolerances proposed by the registrant in this action, except a few of the proposed tolerance reductions and deletions. Consideration of the additional tolerance reductions and deletions would have resulted in lower aggregate risk estimates, as explained in the documents Addendum to: D331951, Cyfluthrin/Beta-cyfluthrin - Human Health Risk Assessment For New Uses on Grasses, Alfalfa, and Sugar Beet Seed and Revised Tolerances on Cereal Grain Commodities; D339413, Cyfluthrin and beta-Cyfluthrin, Summary of Analytical Chemistry and Residue Data; Cyfluthrin and beta-Cyfluthrin: Second Addendum to D331951, Cyfluthrin/Beta-cyfluthrin - Human Health Risk Assessment For New Uses on Grasses, Alfalfa, and Sugar Beet Seed and Revised Tolerances on Cereal Grain Commodities; and D339413, Cyfluthrin and beta-Cyfluthrin, Summary of Analytical Chemistry and Residue Data. These documents are available at http://www.regulations.gov in the docket established for this action (EPA-HQ-OPP-2007-0337).

Since EPA considered these new tolerances for cyfluthrin and beta-cyfluthrin in its most recent risk assessments, establishing these tolerances will not increase the estimated aggregate risks resulting from use of cyfluthrin/beta-cyfluthrin, as discussed in the February 27, 2008 FRL-8350-3) Federal Register document. Refer to this Federal Register document, available at http://www.regulations.gov, for a detailed discussion of the aggregate risk assessments and determination of safety. EPA relies upon those risk assessments and the findings made in the Federal Register document in support of this action.

Based on the risk assessments discussed in the final rule published in the Federal Register of February 27, 2008, EPA concludes that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to the general population, and to infants and children from aggregate exposure to cyfluthrin residues.

IV. Other Considerations

A. Analytical Enforcement Methodology

Adequate enforcement methodology (gas chromatography (GC)/electron-capture detection (ECD)) is available to enforce the tolerance expression. The method may be requested from: Chief, Analytical Chemistry Branch, Environmental Science Center, 701 Mapes Rd., Ft. Meade, MD 20755-5350; telephone number: [phone]; e-mail address: [e-mail].

B. International Residue Limits

CODEX Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs) have been established for residues of cyfluthrin on cattle milk at 0.01 ppm and on maize at 0.05 ppm. No CODEX MRLs have been established for the enriched isomer, beta-cyfluthrin. In this tolerance action EPA is establishing a tolerance on field corn grain at 0.05 ppm, equivalent to the CODEX MRL on maize. EPA is reducing the existing U.S. tolerances for milk and milk fat to 0.2 ppm and 5.0 ppm, respectively. The U.S. milk tolerances are necessarily higher than the CODEX MRL due to registrations in the United States on additional feed items, including grasses, the biggest contributor to dairy cattle dietary burdens of cyfluthrin.

C. Response to Comments

One comment was received from a private citizen in response to the notice of filing. The commenter requested that the petition for cyfluthrin be denied for the following reasons: “It is a suspected endocrine disruptor. It is moderately toxic and has mortality for many species.” The commenter presented no scientific data or other evidence to support the endocrine disruptor claim and there is no evidence in the toxicity database available to EPA, including the 2-generation reproduction study, that either cyfluthrin or beta-cyfluthrin induces any endocrine disruption. EPA considered all available scientific data for cyfluthrin and the estimated aggregate exposure to the pesticide, including anticipated dietary (food and drinking water) and residential exposures, and concluded that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result from aggregate exposure to cyfluthrin. The commenter has provided no information to alter this finding. EPA, therefore, disagrees with the commenter that the petition should be denied.

Comments were also received from a private citizen asking who had filed the petition and expressing general concern about pesticide residues in food. The petitioner was clearly identified in the notice of filing as Bayer CropScience. Regarding the commenter's concern about pesticide residues in food, EPA has received general comments such as this on numerous previous occasions. Refer to the following Federal Register issues for the Agency's previous responses to these kinds of objections: October 29, 2004 (69 FR 63096) (FRL-7681-9), January 7, 2005 (70 FR 1354) (FRL-7691-4), and June 30, 2005 (70 FR 37686) (FRL-7718-3).

V. Conclusion

Therefore, tolerances are established, revised, or deleted for residues of cyfluthrin and established for residues of beta-cyfluthrin as proposed by the registrant and specified in Unit II.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

This final rule establishes, revises, or delete tolerances under section 408(d) of FFDCA in response to a petition submitted to the Agency. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions from review under Executive Order 12866, entitled Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because this final rule has been exempted from review under Executive Order 12866, this final rule is not subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001) or Executive Order 13045, entitled Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This final rule does not contain any information collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., nor does it require any special considerations under Executive Order 12898, entitled Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).

Since tolerances and exemptions that are established, revised, or deleted on the basis of a petition under section 408(d) of FFDCA, such as the tolerances in this final rule, do not require the issuance of a proposed rule, the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) do not apply.

This final rule directly regulates growers, food processors, food handlers, and food retailers, not States or tribes, nor does this action alter the relationships or distribution of power and responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions of section 408(n)(4) of FFDCA. As such, the Agency has determined that this action will not have a substantial direct effect on States or tribal governments, on the relationship between the national government and the States or tribal governments, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government or between the Federal Government and Indian tribes. Thus, the Agency has determined that Executive Order 13132, entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999) and Executive Order 13175, entitled Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000) do not apply to this final rule. In addition, this final rule does not impose any enforceable duty or contain any unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public Law 104-4).

This action does not involve any technical standards that would require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104-113, section 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note).

VII. Congressional Review Act

The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of this final rule in the Federal Register. This final rule is not a “major rule” as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
