SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. General Information

A. Does this action apply to me?

    This action provides information that is directed to the public in 
general.

B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit CBI information to EPA through 
<a href="https://www.regulations.gov/">https://www.regulations.gov/</a> or email. Clearly mark the part or all of 
the information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk 
or CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM 
as CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the 
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as 
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information 
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket. 
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with 
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When preparing and submitting 
your comments, see the commenting tips at <a href="https://www.epa.gov/dockets/epa-dockets">https://www.epa.gov/dockets/epa-dockets</a>.
    3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to achieve environmental 
justice, the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of any group, 
including minority and/or low-income populations, in the development, 
implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and 
policies. To help address potential environmental justice issues, the 
Agency seeks information on any groups or segments of the population 
who, as a result of their location, cultural practices, or other 
factors, may have atypical or disproportionately high and adverse human 
health impacts or environmental effects from exposure to the pesticides 
discussed in this document, compared to the general population.

II. Registration Applications

    EPA has received applications to register pesticide products 
containing active ingredients not included in any currently registered 
pesticide products. Pursuant to the provisions of FIFRA section 3(c)(4) 
(7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(4)), and 40 CFR 152.102, EPA is hereby providing 
notice of receipt and opportunity to comment on these applications. 
Notice of receipt of these applications does not imply a decision by 
the Agency on these applications. For actions being evaluated under 
EPA's public participation process for registration actions, there will 
be an additional opportunity for public comment on the proposed 
decisions. Please see EPA's public participation website for additional 
information on this process (<a href="https://www.epa.gov/pesticide-registration/public-participation-process-registration-actions">https://www.epa.gov/pesticide-registration/public-participation-process-registration-actions</a>).
