II. Background
EPA is conducting its registration review of EtO pursuant to the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) section
3(g) (7 U.S.C. 136a(g)) and the Procedural Regulations for Registration
Review at 40 CFR part 155, subpart C. FIFRA section 3(g) provides,
among other things, that pesticide registrations are to be reviewed
every 15 years. Consistent with 40 CFR 155.57, in its final
registration review decision, EPA will ultimately determine whether a
pesticide continues to meet the registration standard in FIFRA section
3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). As part of the registration review
process, the Agency has completed the interim registration review
decision for EtO.
Prior to completing the interim registration review decision for
EtO, EPA posted a proposed interim decision for EtO and invited the
public to submit any comments or new information, consistent with 40
CFR 155.58(a). EPA considered and responded to any comments or
information received during this public comment period in the interim
decision.
