U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Pesticide Programs 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20460 RE: Attention Docket ID EPA-HQ-OPP-2007-0674 Comments on 40 CFR Part 180 Dear Comment Clerk, I appreciate this opportunity to comment on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) proposed rule regarding residue tolerance actions on pesticides. I acknowledge that the Agency establishes new tolerances according to a reasonable certainty that no harm will result from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue. In response to the request for comments, I have prepared specific comments on the proposed rulings concerning fenamiphos as outlined in the docket above. Highlights of the comments are as follows: - EPA should reconsider revoking the tolerance in/on cotton, undelinted seed and allow the tolerance to remain at its current level of 0.05 ppm. - EPA should reconsider revoking all of the tolerances for raw agricultural meat commodities. - EPA should allow the residue tolerance for the apple commodity to remain at its current level of 0.25 ppm and add it to the list of import commodities. - I encourage EPA to establish an education program and enforce regulations for crop producers to integrate alternative methods to pesticide use into their practices. Please see the attached document for the entire submission. Again, thank you for your time. Respectfully, A Concerned Citizen
