Dicofol: Position Document 4. Intent to Cancel Registrations of Pesticide Products Containing Dicofol; Denial of Applications for Registration of Pesticide Products Containing Dicofol; Conclusion of Special Review; Notice of Final Determination

摘要

The Position Document addresses the risks and benefits of pesticide products containing the subject active ingredient. The Agency has determined that the use of products containing the subject active ingredient may meet or exceed a risk criterion described in 40 CFR Part 154. Potential hazards will be examined further to determine the nature and extent of the risk, and considering the benefits of the subject active ingredient, whether such risks cause unreasonable adverse effects on the environment. The notice announces EPA's final decision to cancel registrations and deny applications of all pesticide products containing dicofol unless certain modifications are made to the pesticide product registrations.
