Tolerance
Reassessment Decision (TRED); Notice of Availability for Public
Comment. EPA
has issued its Report on Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA)
Tolerance Reassessment Progress and Risk Management Decision
for fluazifop-P-butyl, known as a TRED, as well as related
technical support documents. EPA
must review tolerances and tolerance exemptions that were
in effect when FQPA was enacted in August 1996, to ensure
that these existing pesticide residue limits for food and
feed commodities meet the safety standard established by the
new law.

Notice
of Availability of Risk Assessment(s) (Phase 3 of 4-Phase
Process).
The documents
in the following Table were cited in this Federal Register.
Fluazifop-p-butyl's major metabolites of conern have high
mobility and long persistence in water (78-day hydrolysis
half-life at pH 7) and anaerobic soil (half-life 1 to 3 years).
The
estimate for total domestic use (annual average) is approximately
250,000 lbs. active ingredient. More than 90% of fluazifop-P-butyl’s
total usage is on soybeans (75%)
and cotton (21%).
The results of animal studies
have show serious effects on the bone, testes, kidney, etc.
In a rabbit developmental study, multiple anomalies, cleft
palate and several rare conditions were cited with the comment:
"Since individual animal data was not
submitted, this incidence in litters could not be verified."
The uncommon conditions reported:
Acephaly:
literally means absence of the head. The acephalic fetus
is a parasitic twin attached to an otherwise intact fetus.
The acephalic fetus has a body but lacks a head and a heart;
the fetus’s neck is attached to the normal twin. The
blood circulation of the acephalic fetus is provided by
the heart of the twin. The acephalic fetus can not exist
independently of the fetus to which it is attached. Ref:
http://www.icomm.ca/geneinfo/acep.htm
Cebocephaly:
A facial anomaly, characterized by a small, flattened nose
with a single nostril situated below incomplete
or underdeveloped closely set eyes. Ref:
http://www.icomm.ca/geneinfo/cephaly.htm
Gastroschisis:
is an abdominal wall defect located to the side of the umbilical
cord (umbilicus). The infant is born with intestines protruding
through this defect and no protective sac is present.
Ref: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002924.htm
Microphthalmia
- small eye syndrome. Microphthalmia is a disorder in which
one or both eyes are abnormally small.
