CERTIFIED MAIL
Dear Registrant:

       I am pleased to announce that the Environmental Protection Agency has completed its
reregi strati on eligibility review and decisions on the pesticide chemical case Nabam which
includes the active ingredient Disodium ethylene bisdithiocarbamate. The enclosed
Reregi strati on Eligibility Decision (RED) contains the Agency's evaluation of the data base of
this chemical, its conclusions of the potential human health and environmental risks of the
current product uses, and its decisions and conditions under which these uses and products
will be eligible for reregi strati on. The RED includes the data and labeling requirements for
products for reregi strati on. It may also include requirements for additional data (generic) on
the active ingredient to confirm the risk assessments.

       To assist you with a proper response, read the enclosed document entitled "Summary
of Instructions for Responding to the RED."  This summary also refers to other enclosed
documents which include further instructions. You must follow all instructions and submit
complete and timely responses  The first set of required responses is due 90 days from the
receipt of this letter.  The second set of required responses are due 8 months from the
date of this letter.  Complete and timely responses will avoid the Agency taking the
enforcement action of suspension against your products.

       If you have questions on the product specific data requirements or wish to meet with
the Agency, please  contact the Special Review and Reregi strati on Division representative
Jean Holmes at (703) 308-8008. Address any questions on required generic data to the
Special Review and Reregi strati on Division representative Venus Eagle at (703) 308-8045.

                                                    Sincerely yours,
                                                    Lois Rossi, Division Director

             SUMMARY OF INSTRUCTIONS FOR RESPONDING TO
             THE REREGISTRATION ELIGIBILITY DECISION (RED)

1  DATA CALL-IN (PCD OR "90-DAY RESPONSE"-If generic data are required for
reregi strati on, a DCI letter will be enclosed describing such data. If product specific data are
required, a DCI letter will be enclosed listing such requirements. If both generic and
product specific data are required, a combined Generic and Product Specific DCI letter will
be enclosed describing such data. However, if you are an end-use product registrant only and
have been granted a generic data exemption (GDE) by EPA, you are being sent only the
product specific response forms (2 forms) with the RED. Registrants responsible for generic
data are being sent response forms for both generic and product specific data requirements (4
forms)  You must submit the appropriate response forms (following the instructions
provided) within 90 days of the receipt of this RED/DCI letter; otherwise, your product
may be suspended.

2  TIME EXTENSIONS AND DATA WAIVER REOUESTS-No time extension requests
will be granted for the 90-day response. Time extension requests may be submitted only with
respect to actual data submissions. Requests for time extensions for product specific data
should be submitted in the 90-day response. Requests for data waivers must be submitted as
part of the 90-day response. All data waiver and time extension requests must be
accompanied by a full justification. All waivers and  time extensions must be granted by EPA
in order to go into effect.

3  APPLICATION FOR REREGISTRATION OR "8-MONTH RESPONSE"-You
must submit the following items for each product within eight months of the date of this
letter (RED issuance date).

      a. Application for Reregistration (EPA Form 8570-1). Use only an original
application form.  Mark it "Application for Reregistration." Send your Application for
Reregistration (along with the other forms listed in b-e below) to the address listed in item 5.

      b. Five copies of draft labeling which complies with the RED  and current regulations
and requirements. Only make labeling changes which are required by the RED and current
regulations (40 CFR 156.10) and policies. Submit any other amendments (such as
formulation changes, or labeling changes not related  to reregi strati on) separately. You may,
but are not required to, delete uses which the RED says are ineligible for reregi strati on.  For
further labeling guidance, refer to the labeling section of the EPA publication  "General
Information on Applying for Registration in the U.S., Second Edition, August 1992"
(available from the National Technical Information Service, publication #PB92-221811;
telephone number 703-487-4650).

      c. Generic or Product Specific Data.  Submit all data in a format which complies
with PR Notice 86-5, and/or submit citations of data  already submitted  and give the EPA
identifier (MRID) numbers. Before citing these studies, you must make sure that they meet
the Agency's acceptance criteria (attached to the DCI)

-------
      d  Two copies of the Confidential Statement of Formula (CSF) for each basic and
each alternate formulation. The labeling and CSF which you submit for each product must
comply with P.R. Notice 91-2 by declaring the active ingredient as the nominal
concentration. You have two options for submitting a CSF: (1) accept the standard certified
limits (see 40 CFR §158.175) or (2) provide certified limits that are supported by the analysis
of five batches. If you choose the second option, you must submit or cite the data for the five
batches along with a certification statement as described in 40 CFR §158.175(e). A copy of
the CSF is enclosed; follow the instructions on its back.

      e  Certification With Respect to Data Compensation Requirements  Complete
and sign EPA form 8570-31 for each product.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Background

       This Reregi strati on Eligibility Decision (RED) document addresses the reregi strati on
eligibility of the pesticide nabam, disodium ethylene bisdithiocarbamate.

       Nabam was first registered in 1948 as a broad spectrum fungicide used to prevent crop
damage by fungi, to protect harvested products from deterioration, and as an industrial
microbiocide.  Nabam and the other ethylene bisdithiocarbamate (EBDC) pesticides
mancozeb, maneb, and metiram, have been the subject of two Special Reviews based on the
presumption that the EBDCs and their common metabolite, ethylene thiourea (ETU), posed
potential risks to human health and/or the environment in the following areas: carcinogenicity,
developmental toxicity, and acute toxicity to aquatic organisms.  Three additional areas of
concern that were identified were thyroid toxicity, mutagenicity, and skin sensitization.

       As a result of the Special Reviews on nabam, all food uses were voluntarily cancelled
except one FDA-regulated food use on sugar mill grinding, crusher and/or diffuser systems.
Pesticides added to sugar mill processing water systems to control microorganisms is an
indirect food additive and, therefore falls under FDA jurisdiction. All other uses of nabam are
as an industrial biocide in paper mills, water cooling systems, drilling mud and packer fluids
and secondary oil  recovery water systems.

       The first Registration Standard for nabam, issued in 1987, required further data to
evaluate the environmental and human risks associated with the use of nabam.  Prior to the
issuance of the Registration Standard, the Agency had also issued five separate Data Call-Ins
for nabam.  The Agency has now completed its review of the nabam target data base
including the data submitted from the Registration Standard and five Data Call-Ins.

Reregistration Eligibility

       The Agency has determined that all currently registered uses of nabam will not cause
unreasonable risk  to humans or the environment and are  eligible for reregi strati on provided
the risk mitigation measures and other changes specified in this document are implemented.
Risk mitigation measures, being imposed include requiring that the liquid formulations be
applied into water cooling systems by a pump metering system or a closed loading/application
delivery system and requiring that all solid/dry formulations of nabam be marketed in water
soluble packaging.

Health Effects

      To assess the cancer risks associated with nabam uses, the Agency used estimates of
exposure to ETU based on exposure to nabam, and used the unit risk for ETU.  ETU is
present in nabam as a contaminant, metabolite, and the main degradation product. ETU is
classified as a probable human carcinogen (Group B2) with a Qt* of 6.01 x 10"2 (mg/kg/day)"1
based on studies which show that it induced an increased incidence of thyroid adenomas and
adenocarcinomas in rats and hepatomas in mice.  A RfD (reference dose) has not been
established for nabam at this time since the intended uses (industrial microbicide) of this
chemical are classified as non-food applications.

Occupational and Residential Exposure

      The toxicological endpoints of concern for occupational and residential exposure to
nabam is systemic toxicity based on a rabbit developmental study and from exposure to ETU.
The calculated Margins of Exposure  (MOE = NOEL/exposure) for nabam represent
acceptable margins of exposure (greater than 100) for most uses. Exposures to handlers using
open pour liquid formulations in cooling water systems (e.g. towers) and open pour solid
formulations to drilling muds & packing fluids and secondary & tertiary oil recovery water
systems are unacceptable  (less than 100) without the additional risk mitigation requirements
imposed in this RED.

Environmental Fate and Ecological Effects

      The Agency requires only a limited set of ecotoxicology and environmental fate
studies for microbiocides.  While the hazard to aquatic organisms from  nabam has been
characterized, a quantitative risk assessment has not been conducted. Risks to aquatic
organisms resulting from the discharge of effluent containing nabam is  regulated under the
NPDES permitting program of the Agency's Office of Water. The Agency currently requires
that labels for all nabam products require that discharges to aquatic environments comply with
an NPDES permit.

      Existing studies show that nabam was found to be practically nontoxic to birds on an
acute oral and subacute dietary basis  and practically nontoxic to bees. Available data indicate
that nabam is slightly to moderately toxic to both cold and warm water  fish and moderately
toxic to  freshwater invertebrates.  Additionally, nabam ranged from being highly toxic to
practically nontoxic to estuarine/marine organisms. Ecological effects testing of ETU
previously had been required; however, because of the current limited uses of nabam, these
tests are not  required at this time.

      Before reregistering the products containing nabam, the Agency is requiring that
product specific data, revised Confidential Statements of Formula (CSF) and revised labeling
be submitted within eight months of the issuance of this document. These data include
                                          VI

-------
product chemistry and acute toxicity testing for each registration. After reviewing these data
and any revised labels and finding them acceptable in accordance with Section 3(c)(5) of
FIFRA, the Agency will reregister a product.  Those products which contain other active
ingredients will be eligible for reregi strati on only when the other active ingredients are
determined to be eligible for reregi strati on.

I.      INTRODUCTION

       In 1988, the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) was
amended to accelerate the reregi strati on of products with active ingredients registered prior to
November 1, 1984. The amended Act provides a schedule for the reregi strati on process to be
completed in nine years.  There are five phases to the reregi strati on process. The first four
phases of the process focus on identification of data requirements to support the reregi strati on
of an active ingredient and the generation and submission of data to fulfill the requirements.
The fifth phase is a review by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (referred to as "the
Agency") of all data submitted to support reregi strati on.

       FIFRA Section 4(g)(2)(A) states that in Phase 5 "the Administrator shall determine
whether pesticides containing such active ingredient are eligible for reregi strati on" before
calling in data on products and either reregistering products or taking  "other appropriate
regulatory action." Thus, reregi strati on involves a thorough review of the scientific data base
underlying a pesticide's registration. The purpose  of the Agency's review is to reassess the
potential hazards arising from the currently registered uses of the  pesticide; to determine the
need for additional data on health and environmental  effects; and to determine whether the
pesticide meets the "no unreasonable adverse effects" criterion of FIFRA.

       This document presents the Agency's decision regarding the reregi strati on eligibility of
the registered uses of nabam. The document consists of six sections.  Section I is the
introduction.  Section  II describes nabam, its uses, data requirements and regulatory history.
Section III discusses the human health and environmental assessment based on the data
available to the Agency.  Section IV presents the reregi strati on decision for nabam.  Section V
discusses the reregi strati on requirements for nabam.  Finally, Section VI is the Appendices
which support this Reregi strati on Eligibility Decision. Additional details concerning the
Agency's review of applicable data are available on request.

C.     Estimated Usage of Pesticide

       Of all the nabam sites listed in the use profile, only one in-house source from
the late 1980's showed relatively low levels of annual usage. According to that
proprietary data base, nabam has a relatively minor share of the biocide market in the
paper industry.

D.     Data Requirements

       Data requested in the 1987 Nabam Registration Standard included product
chemistry, toxicology, ecological effects, environmental fate, and residue chemistry
studies. These data were required to support the uses listed in the Registration
Standard.  Data required in five separate Data Call-In Notices issued prior to the
Registration Standard are outlined in the Regulatory History section below. Appendix
B of this RED document includes all data requirements identified by the Agency for
currently registered uses needed to support reregi strati on of nabam.

E.     Regulatory History

       Nabam was first registered in the United States in 1948 for use as a broad
spectrum fungicide used to prevent crop damage by fungi, to protect harvested
products from deterioration, and as an industrial microbiocide. Nabam and the other
EBDC pesticides, mancozeb, maneb and metiram have been the subject of two Special
Reviews based on the presumption that the EBDCs and their common metabolite,
ETU, posed potential risks to human health and/or the environment in the following
areas:  carcinogenicity, developmental toxicity, and acute toxicity to aquatic
organisms. Three additional areas of concern identified were thyroid toxicity,
mutagenicity, and skin sensitization.

       Upon conclusion of the first Special Review which was initiated in  1977 and
concluded in 1982, the Agency issued a Final Position Document (PD 4) that required
risk reduction measures to prevent unreasonable adverse effects pending development
of additional data needed to better assess the risks. An additional label statement was
required to warn users of hazards to fish and additional protective clothing was
required to mitigate potential risks of developmental and thyroid effects to  applicators.
Additional exposure data were required to address mutagenic effects but it was
determined that the skin sensitization effect did not ultimately meet the criteria for a
Special Review.  Following the first Special Review, the Agency classified ETU as a
Group B2 carcinogen shortly after the classification system was established in 1986.

-------
       During the second Special Review, which was initiated in 1987, all food uses
of nabam were voluntarily cancelled (December 1989). At the close of the second
Special Review in 1992, the Agency concluded that industrial uses of nabam could be
retained including one FDA-regulated food use on sugar mill grinding, crusher and/or
diffuser systems. Therefore, the EPA does not require food use data since this use
pattern falls under the purview of the FDA (see 36 FR 24234 dated  12/22/71).

       In the Registration Standard for nabam issued in April 1987  (NTIS #PB88-
192745) the Agency reported its evaluation of the studies submitted as a result of the
1985 Data Call-In (DCI). It required further data to evaluate  the environmental and
human risks associated with the uses of nabam. This RED document reflects a
reassessment of all data that were submitted in response to the Registration Standard.
The following data were required in the DCI Notices issued for nabam:

1.      January 17, 1983 - This notice required the submission of the metabolism,
dermal penetration and mutagenicity data identified in the 1982 Special Review
Decision Document.

2.      July 25, 1984  - This notice advised registrants of the Agency's concern about
the existence of pesticides in ground water and the designation of a  number of
chemicals, including  nabam, which may have the potential to contaminate ground
water.  The chemicals were designated based on such factors  as chemical structure,
solubility, and use patterns. The notice required submission of certain environmental
fate and product chemistry data for agricultural uses only.

3.      October 19, 1984 - This notice required dietary exposure, product chemistry
and toxicology (subchronic feeding and inhalation) data.

4.      March 20, 1985 - This  notice required registrants of pesticide products
containing nabam to submit all outstanding data requirements as outlined under 40
CFR 158 regulations  for disciplines including product chemistry, toxicology, wildlife
and aquatic organisms, and environmental fate.

5.      April 30, 1985 - This notice required additional data, not identified in the
October 1984 Data Call-In Notice, considered necessary to the reassessment of the
chemicals.  These data included additional toxicological (subchronic feeding and
inhalation - ETU) and residue  data for ETU as well as  nabam.

       The data required by these Data Call-In Notices to support the continued
registration of nabam products have been received and considered by the Agency in its
evaluation of nabam reregi strati on eligibility.

III.   SCIENCE ASSESSMENT

      A.     Physical Chemistry Assessment

             Nabam [(disodium ethylene bis(dithiocarbamate)] is an EBDC pesticide
      registered for non-food industrial uses, and FDA-regulated food uses in sugar mill
      grinding, crusher, and or diffuser systems (21 CFR 173.320(b)(3)). The Agency does
      not consider this use to be a food-use for its own regulatory purposes.

                         Shaughnessy No.:          014503
             IDENTIFICATION OF ACTIVE INGREDIENT

             Technical nabam is not commercially produced.  Nabam is produced as a 30%
      manufacturing-use product (MP) or end-use product (EP). Nabam products containing
      30% nabam are yellow to amber aqueous solutions. Nabam is soluble in water (40
      g/100 mL). The purified or dried nabam is a solid with a melting point of 200 C.

             MANUFACTURING-USE PRODUCTS

             There is a single nabam manufacturing-use product (MP) registered to Alco
      Chemical Division, the 30% FI (formulation intermediate) (EPA Reg. No.  31910-7).
      All of the registered end-use products (EPs) contain nabam in combination with
      sodium dimethyldithiocarbamate (SDDC).  Of the three nabam registrants, only Alco
      and Vinings Industries, Inc., which together comprise the Nabam Task Force,
      manufacture nabam.

             The Agency has concluded that data submitted for the Alco pure active
      ingredient (PAI) can support both the Alco and Vinings nabam products. The Agency
      notes that, due to Vinings EPs manufacturing  system, data are only required on the
      isolated TGAI at this time.

-------
       Data concerning the presence of nitrosamines in nabam products were required by the
Agency; however, in response to a request by the registrants to waive the data requirement,
the Agency concluded in 1994 that analysis would no longer be required for nabam because
nitrites are not involved in  the manufacturing process.  The Agency also waived a product
chemistry data requirement for analytical methods capable of distinguishing nabam per se
from other EBDCs and CS2-producing impurities.

       The current status of the product chemistry data requirements for the Alco and Vinings
MP and TGAI products is presented in Appendix B of this RED document. Product
chemistry data remain outstanding for both registrations.

       B.    Human Health Assessment

             1.      Toxicology Assessment

                     The toxicological data base for nabam is adequate and will support
             reregi strati on eligibility.

** Note: Data pertaining to acute eye irritation, dermal irritation, and dermal sensitization are not required to support
the reregistration of the TGAI. These data are presented for informational purposes.

-------
       In the acute inhalation toxicity study with rats, the LC50 was
reported to be greater than 2.19 mg/L (no mortalities following a 4-hour
exposure). The study is currently classified as supplementary because
the report does not specifically state what substance (e.g. the active
ingredient, the 30% solution, Aquatreat DN-30) was tested and it is not
evident how this value was calculated.  This classification can be
upgraded with additional information. In the April 1987 Registration
Standard for nab am it was noted that a study in the open literature
reported that a sensitization reaction in humans occurred following
exposure to a 19% nabam solution.  This finding adequately
demonstrates that nabam is a skin sensitizer and  no further dermal
sensitization data are required.

b.     Subchronic Toxicity

       In a 21-day dermal toxicity study,  groups of 5 male and 5 female
Sprague-Dawley rats were dermally exposed to 0, 46, 457, 1525 or
3050 mg Aquatreat DN-30/kg/day (equivalent to 0,  15,  150, 500 and
1000 mg nabam/kg/day) 5 days/week over a 21-day period for a total of
15 six-hour occluded exposures. At termination, the highest-dose
females showed a significant decrease in T4, and the value (2.6 jig/dL)
was below the diurnal range (3 to 7 |ig/dL) stated to be normal for
Sprague-Dawley rats.  The systemic NOEL was  1525 mg DN-30/kg/day
(=500 mg nabam/kg/day) for females (based on the  decrease in T4) and
3050 mg DN-30/kg/day (=1000 mg nabam/kg/day) for males. The
NOEL for dermal effects was 46 mg  Aquatreat DN-30/kg/day (=15 mg
nabam/kg/day) and the LEL for dermal  effects (slight to moderate
erythema of the treatment site in some animals) was 457 mg Aquatreat
DN-30/kg/day (=150 mg nabam/kg/day).  No other systemic effects and
no other dermal effects were found (guideline 82-2; MRID 42791602).

       In a combined subchronic neurotoxicity study and 90-day
subchronic oral toxicity study, Aquatreat DN-30 (31.1% nabam) was
administered by gavage to male and female Sprague-Dawley rats at 0,
0.08, 0.8, 8.0, 80 or 260 mg/kg/day.  These doses were equivalent to 0,
0.025,  0.25,  2.49, 24.9 and 80.86 mg of nabam/kg/day.  In the
subchronic neurotoxicity study, no treatment-related changes were
noted in either the Functional Observational Battery or locomotor
evaluations.  No statistically significant differences in the brain weights
and dimensions were noted between the control and treated animals.
Additionally, no treatment-related histopathological lesions were
observed in the central or peripheral nervous systems.  The subchronic
neurotoxicity NOEL was 260 mg Aquatreat DN-30/kg/day (=80.86 mg

-------
nabam/kg/day), the highest dose tested (guideline 82-7; MRID
42751601).

      In the subchronic oral toxicity study, body weights and body
weight gains were decreased in 80 mg Aquatreat DN-30/kg/day males
and 260 mg Aquatreat DN-30/kg/day males and females, but these
decreases were judged to be minimal (<10%) and not of physiological
and/or toxicological importance. Absolute and relative thyroid weights
were increased at 80 mg/kg/day (females only) and at 260 mg/kg/day
(both sexes). Decreases in thyroxine (T4) levels were observed at 80
and 260 mg/kg/day in both sexes; increases in TSH were observed in
260 mg/kg/day males.  Macroscopic examination revealed an enlarged
thyroid in one high-dose male; microscopic examination revealed mild
hypertrophy of the follicular epithelium in the thyroid glands of 3/10
high-dose (260 mg/kg/day) males.  The systemic LOEL was established
at 80 mg Aquatreat DN-30/kg/day (=24.9 mg nabam/kg/day) in males
(decreased T4) and females (decreased T4 and increased thyroid
weight). The systemic NOEL was 8.0 mg Aquatreat DN-30/kg/day or
2.49 mg nabam/kg/day (guideline 82-1; MRID 42751601).

c.    Chronic Toxicity and Carcinogenicity

      No chronic studies exist for nabam. However, chronic and
carcinogenicity studies exist for ethylene thiourea (ETU), a metabolite
of nabam.  ETU is currently classified as a B2 carcinogen, with a
revised (Feb. 24, 1995) unit risk Qt*(mg/kg/day)"1 of 6.01 x 10'2  in
human equivalents.

d.    Developmental Toxicity

      Two developmental studies were conducted with New Zealand
white rabbits. In the first study (MRID 40873301), groups of 18
pregnant females were orally dosed with 0, 10, 100 or 200 mg/kg/day of
test material (Aquatreat DN-30, approximately 30% nabam in aqueous
solution) from days 7 through 19 of gestation. The maternal LEL
(based on a weight loss occurring during days 7-13) was 100
mg/kg/day. For fetal malformations, there was a dose-related increased
incidence of hydrocephaly (fetal incidences: 0/98, 3/102, 8/95 and
10/55; with litter incidences of 0/14, 2/16, 4/16 and 5/8 at 0, 10,  100 and
200 mg/kg/day, respectively). Also, there were 7 additional fetuses (not
included among the 55 indicated above) which did not reach term (late
resorptions or abortions) at 200 mg/kg/day which had findings
suggestive of hydrocephaly. Hydrocephaly was also present in a fetus
                      10

-------
that was aborted in the 10 mg/kg/day group and one that was aborted at
100 mg/kg/day. In addition, there was a dose-related trend for soft spot
and/or domed cranium (fetal incidences: 0/98, 2/102, 4/95 and 6/55;
litter incidences: 0/14, 2/16, 3/16 and 4/8).  Among developmental
variations, there was a trend involving incomplete ossification of the
frontals of the cranium (fetal incidences: 0/98, 4/102, 8/95, and 9/55;
litter incidences: 0/14, 4/16, 4/16 and 5/8).  In general, the increased
incidences were statistically significant at 100 and 200 mg/kg/day.
While the incidence of hydrocephaly in the 10 mg/kg/day fetuses was
not statistically  significant, the report noted that: "hydrocephaly was not
seen in any of the  control rabbits in this study, nor has  it been observed
previously in control rabbits utilized by this laboratory." The
developmental toxicity NOEL in this study was below  10 mg/kg/day
(lowest dose tested). The maternal NOEL was 10 mg/kg/day; the LEL
(weight loss days 7-13) was 100 mg/kg/day.

      In the second rabbit developmental study (MRID 42437701)
groups of 20 inseminated females were orally dosed with 0, 1, 8 or 100
mg/kg/day of test material (AquatreatDN-30, approximately 30%
nabam in aqueous solution) from days 7 through 19 of gestation. The
maternal LEL (based on a statistically significant inhibition of weight
gain during the  first 6 days of dosing and the occurrence of elevated - in
excess of 0.4 grams - thyroid weights in 2 females at termination) was
100 mg/kg/day. Fetal incidences of hydrocephaly were 0/98, 1/117,
3/134 and 3/114 (litter incidences: 0/16, 1/18, 1/18 and 3/18) at 0, 1,8
and 100 mg/kg/day respectively.  Two hydrocephalic fetuses at the
median dose and one at the high dose also had cleft palate.
Hydrocephaly had been previously observed in this laboratory, but cleft
palate had not.  The developmental toxicity NOEL in this study was 1
mg/kg/day (= 0.328 mg nabam/kg/day); the LEL was 8 mg/kg/day (=
2.62 mg nabam/kg/day) based on the occurrence of hydrocephaly in
association with cleft palate and/or carpal flexure. The maternal NOEL
was 10 mg/kg/day; the LEL (weight loss days 7-13) was 100
mg/kg/day.

      The two studies (MRID 40873301 and MRID 42437701) satisfy
the guideline requirement (83-3) for a developmental toxicity study in
rabbits.

e.     Mutagenicity

      Nabam,  tested as a 30% aqueous solution, did not induce a
mutagenic response at the histidine locus in Salmonella typhimurium
                      11

-------
strains TA98, TA100, TA1535, or TA1537 either in the absence or
presence of rat-derived S9 (strains TA100, TA1535 and TA1537 were
also tested in the presence of mouse S9, with no indication of any
mutagenic response). The combination of studies (MRIDs 00152701,
42387101) satisfies the guideline requirement for an Ames assay (84-2).

      In an initial Chinese Hamster Ovary/hprt assay (MRID
00153559) there was no indication of an increased mutation frequency
at the hprt locus in cells exposed at up to 10 jig nabam/mL in the
absence of S9, or at up to 20 jig nabam/mL in the presence of mouse
S9. The next higher doses (20 jig nabam/mL without S9, and 30 |ig/mL
with mouse S9) were not evaluated, as there was considerable
cytotoxicity (less than 10% relative plating efficiency). In the presence
of rat S9, there was a statistically significant increase in mutation
frequency at the hprt locus following exposure to 300 |ig/mL (highest
dose tested), but not at lower doses (60 - 150 jig nabam/mL). While the
rat S9 significantly detoxified the nabam, the mouse S9 did not. In a
subsequent CHO/hprt assay (MRID 41089901), conducted only in the
presence of rat S9, there were statistically significant increases  in
mutant frequencies at the two highest doses (0.2 and 0.3 mg/mL) in a
first trial, and also (with no evidence of a dose-related trend within the
comparatively narrow concentration range of 0.1 to 0.3 mg/mL) in a
second trial.  The combination of studies (MRIDs 00153559, MRID
41089901) satisfies the guideline requirement (84-2) for an in vitro gene
mutation assay in a mammalian cell line.

      In an in vivo  cytogenetics assay (MRID 41177201) there was no
indication of an increased incidence of chromosomal aberrations in
male and female Sprague-Dawley rats which received a single oral dose
of up to 1200 mg/kg Aquatreat DN-30 (approximately 30% nabam) and
were sacrificed 6, 18 or 30 hours following dosage.  There were no
indications of an increased incidence of chromosomal aberrations in
another in vivo cytogenetics assay (MRID 00160516) in which groups
of 10 male Fischer 344 rats received five doses of 0 (vehicle control) or
400 mg "nabam"/kg/day (from the wording of the report it was assumed
they  received 400 mg Aquatreat DN-30/kg/day) for 5  consecutive days,
with sacrifice 6 hours after the final dose. From the reported toxicity
(two rats died following dosing on day 3, and all animals had diarrhea)
the highest dose was adequate.  The study, MRID 41177201, satisfies
the guideline requirement for an in vivo chromosomal aberration assay
(84-2); MRID 00160516 is also acceptable, and the negative findings
are consistent with what was observed in the other study.
                      12

-------
       In a single UDS (Unscheduled DNA Synthesis) study (MRIDs
00151954, 41174601) rat hepatocytes were exposed to concentrations
of 0.1, 0.5,  1.0, 5.0 and 10.0 |ig/mL (it is uncertain whether these values
refer to concentrations of Aquatreat DN-30, or to concentrations of
nabam). No cells survived treatment with 50 or 100 |ig/mL. In the
initial review, it was noted that there were increases in mean nuclear
grain counts following exposure to nabam at doses from 0.1 to 1 |ig/mL,
suggestive of a dose-related effect, although these increases were not
statistically significant. At the 5 |ig/mL dose, there was good relative
survival (95%) and a statistically significant increase in mean net
nuclear grain counts. At 10.0 |ig/mL there was a drop in relative
survival (to 34%) and an increase (but not significantly so) in mean net
nuclear grain counts. Subsequent  evaluation of individual cell grain
counts (MRID 41174601) showed that at doses of 1.0, 5.0 and  10.0
|ig/mL the incidences of nuclei with >20 net grains were significantly
elevated, indicating a positive response at these dose levels. The
studies, MRID nos. 00151954 and 41174601, are acceptable and satisfy
guideline 84-4, Other Genotoxic Effects.

       There have been two SCE (Sister Chromatid Exchange) studies,
both with positive findings. In the first study, (MRID  00160517), slight
(statistically non-significant) increases in sister chromatid exchanges in
CHO were observed under non-activated conditions; significant
increases (with a dose-related trend) were observed at  all dose levels
(1000-5000 |ig/mL) in the presence of mouse S9 and at the two highest
dose levels (4000 and 5000 jig/mL) in the presence of rat S9.  In the
second SCE study (MRID 42303601), conducted under non-activated
conditions only, there were increased incidences of SCE in CHO cells
correlating with increasing exposure levels to Aquatreat DN-30 (first
assay: significant increases following exposure to 16.7 and 50.1 |ig/mL
Aquatreat DN-30; second assay: significant increases following
exposure to 16.7, 50 and 100 |ig/mL).  The two studies (MRIDs
00160517 and 42303601) are acceptable and satisfy guideline 84-4,
Other Genotoxic Effects.

       There have been two cell transformation assays. In the first
assay, (MRID 00151955), there was no evidence of an increase in cell
transformation under nonactivated conditions following exposure to
concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 0.8 |ig/mL. At 0.8  |ig/mL there was
18% survival.  In the second assay (MRID 41221201), conducted with
activation only (rat S9 was used) there were no indications of an
increased rate of cell transformation at the highest doses (127, 115, and
127 |ig/mL) evaluated in 3 trials, with doses higher than these showing
                      13

-------
excessive toxicity.  The studies, MRID 00151955 and 41221201, are
acceptable and satisfy guideline requirement 84-4, Other Genotoxic
Effects.

f.      Metabolism

       In an acceptable metabolism study (MRID 00160125, with
additional information and clarifications in MRID 00161804)
radiolabelled nabam was administered to male and female rats by both
oral and intravenous routes.  Group A rats each received a single
intravenous injection at 4.5 mg/kg; group B rats each received a single
oral dose of 4.5 mg/kg. Each group C rat was dosed with 4.5 mg
unlabelled nabam/kg/day, and then received 4.5 mg labelled nabam/kg
on day 15. Each group D rat received a single dose of 100 mg labelled
nabam/kg. For each group, most of the recovered radioactivity was in
the urine (percentages ranged from 56.92 in group D males to 91.82 in
group A females), with most of the remainder in the feces. Although
the amount of radiolabelling in thyroids tended to be relatively low in
terms of total administered 14C (0.001% to 0.008%)  concentrations were
relatively high (10X to 3IX) relative to carcass values.  ETU was
present in urine (11.7 to 36.6% of total 14C present in the urine, with the
highest percentages occurring in group D rats). No ETU was detected
in the feces from group A animals; but 65.3% of the 14C in the feces of
group D males was from ETU; the value for group D females was
47.5%. This study is acceptable and satisfies guideline requirement
85-1.

g.     Dermal Absorption

       In a dermal absorption study (MRID 40317901) male rats
received 10-hour occluded exposures to 0.2%, 2% and 20% (equal to
0.013, 0.13 and 1.3 mg/cm2 respectively) radiolabelled nabam in
aqueous solutions; there was absorption of 0.24%, 0.05% and 0.08% of
the label, respectively. Corresponding values for the amounts
remaining on the skin (and presumably available for absorption) were
15.68%, 3.66%, and 1.09% respectively. It is noted that in a dermal
absorption study for ETU (MRID  40312001) "A significant portion of
the dermal dose could not be washed off with soap and water and was
subsequently absorbed." The study MRID 40317901 is acceptable and
satisfies the data requirement for dermal absorption, guideline 85-2.
                      14

-------
      Based on this study the Agency has determined that a dermal
absorption value of 16% (15.68% + 0.24%), should be used for risk
assessment purposes.

h.    Toxicity Endpoints

      The following toxicity endpoints were selected for nabam and its
metabolite ethylenethiourea (ETU):

      A NOEL of 0.328 mg/kg/day from a rabbit developmental
toxicity study (MRID 42437701) was the endpoint selected for the short
and the intermediate-term occupational exposure assessment
(Toxicology Endpoint Selection Document, 6/1/95). The LEL in the
study was 2.62 mg/kg/day based on the occurrence of hydrocephaly in
association with cleft palate and/or carpal flexure. These
developmentally toxic effects occurred at doses that are not maternally
toxic.

      The carcinogenic potential of nabam has not been evaluated. To
assess the cancer risks associated with nabam uses, the Agency
recommended the estimation of exposure to ETU based on exposure to
nabam, and using the unit risk for ETU (Comments on Calculation of
Cancer Risk from Nabam, June  13, 1995). ETU  is present in nabam as
a contaminant,  metabolite, and the main degradation product. ETU is
classified as a Group B2 carcinogen with a Qt* of 6.01 X 10"2
(mg/kg/day)"1 based on studies which show that it induced an increased
incidence of thyroid adenomas and adenocarcinomas in rats and
hepatomas in mice (51  CFR 33992, September 26,  1986).

      The dermal absorption rate for nabam was calculated at 16
percent (Toxicology Endpoint Selection Document, May 30, 1995).
The percentage of dermally absorbed nabam that is metabolically
converted to ETU was calculated at 7.5 percent (Revision of EBDC
Worker Exposure Assessment for Position Document Four, April  16,
1991). The dermal absorption rate for ETU was calculated at 30 percent
(Exposure and  Risk Assessment for Applicators of Nabam-Containing
Microbiocides, Alco Chemical Corporation and Vinings Industries,
May 5, 1988).

      The OPP RfD Committee did not set an RfD for nabam at this
time since the intended uses of this chemical are limited to non-food
applications. Nabam's food uses (sugar mill grinding, crusher, and or/
                      15

-------
       diffuser systems) are regulated under the purview of FDA (21 CFR
       173.320(b)(3)).

2.     Exposure Assessment

       a.     Dietary Exposure

             The uses of nabam under EPA's regulatory jurisdiction are
       limited to non-food applications.  The food uses (sugar mill grinding,
       crusher, and or diffuser systems) fall under the purview of FDA (21
       CFR 173.320(b)(3)). The EPA defers to FDA regarding dietary risk
       assessment. Dietary  exposure to residues of nabam from EPA-regulated
       uses is not expected.

       b.     Occupational and Residential

             Use Patterns

             Nabam is applied by hand, open pouring, metering pump, and
       drip-feed devices.  Applications are made continuously or as-needed.

             Application rates range from  1.5 to 3.0 parts per million (ppm) in
       sugar processing; 7.2 to  170 ppm in pulp and paper processing; 2.4 to
       60 ppm in water cooling towers, and 2.4 to 210 ppm for other industrial
       uses.

             At this time, no end-use products containing nabam are intended
       for homeowner use.  Many products containing nabam are labelled for
       "industrial use only"  and are, therefore,  intended for occupational use.
       None of the registered uses are likely to involve direct applications at
       residential sites.

       Handler (Mixer/Loader/Applicator) Exposure

             EPA has determined that there is potential for exposure to
       handlers during use-practices associated with nabam.  Specifically, EPA
       is concerned about exposures to handlers at industrial sites. Data from
       the Chemical Manufacturer Association's (CMA) Antimicrobial
       Exposure Assessment study were used to complete the exposure
       assessment. The CMA study includes handlers who wear chemical
       resistant gloves, long pants and sleeves, shoes and socks. Alco
       Chemical Corporation and Vinings Industries were participants in the
       CMA study.
                            16

-------
       Based on the use pattern, several exposure scenarios are
plausible as defined by the type of application equipment and
procedures that may be employed by nabam handlers.  The current
labels indicate that two kinds of loading/application methods are
available: open pouring (liquid and solid formulations) and pump
metering system (liquid formulation in mechanical delivery system)
applications.  For those handlers using open pouring methods, there is
the potential for respiratory, dermal, and eye exposure to nabam/ETU.
Application via pump metering delivery systems would significantly
reduce potential exposure.

       The exposure scenarios are presented in Tables 2(a) through 4(c)
along with the corresponding exposure and risk assessment for that
scenario.  For each of the loading/application methods, open-pour
liquid, metering-pump liquid, and open-pour solid:

       •     Table "a" contains the exposure and risk estimates for
             short-term and intermediate-term exposures to nabam,
       •     Table "b" contains the average daily exposure estimates
             for ETU, and
       •     Table "c" contains the cancer risk estimates for ETU.

       Two exposure settings are presented for open pouring
application of the soluble concentrate liquid:

       (1) industrial recirculating water cooling systems and
       (2) drilling mud and packer fluids.

       Four exposure settings are presented for meter-pump application
of the soluble concentrate liquid:

       (1) industrial recirculating water cooling systems,
       (2) drilling mud and packer fluids,
       (3) sugar mills processing water, and
       (4) paper and pulp mill water systems.

       Four exposure settings are presented for open pouring
application of the soluble concentrate powder:

       (1) industrial recirculating water cooling systems,
       (2) drilling mud and packer fluids,
       (3) paper and pulp mill water systems, and
                      17

-------
      (4) secondary and tertiary oil petroleum recovery. (Note that
      industry reports indicate that sugar mills and paper/pulp mills do
      not use the open-pouring application method).

      Short and intermediate-term exposure to nabam was calculated
as shown below.  The body weight value for these nabam exposure
calculations was 60 kg, the estimated weight of an average adult female
in the United States, since the endpoint of concern is developmental
toxicity.

•     Actual Daily Exposure (ADE) (//g/kg/day) =

Unit Exposure (//g/lb ai) X Amount of A.I. Used (Ib)
      Body Weight (60 kg)

•     Adjusted Actual Daily Exposure (Adj.ADE) (//g/kg/day) =
      ADE (//g/kg/day) X Percent Dermal Absorption of Nabam (16)

      Exposure to ethylenethiourea (ETU) was calculated as shown
below.  The body weight value for this exposure calculation was 70 kg,
the estimated weight of an average person in the United States, since the
chronic toxicological endpoints pertain to all persons, male and female.

1.    ETU Exposure Calculations:

      i.      Average Daily Nabam Exposure (Nabam ADE)
             (//g/kg/day) =

Unit Exposure (//g/lb ai) X Amount of A.I. Used (Ib)
             Body Weight (70 kg)

      ii.     Adjusted Nabam ADE (//g/kg/day) =

      Nabam ADE (//g/kg/day) X Percent Dermal Absorption of
      Nabam (16%)

      iii.    Adjusted ETU ADE (//g/kg/day) =

      Adj. Nabam ADE (//g/kg/day) X Percent Nabam Converted to
      ETU (7.5%)
                      18

-------
2.    ETU Exposure Calculations:

      i.      Average Daily ETU Exposure (ETU ADE) (//g/kg/day)

      =  Unit Exposure (//g/lb ai) X Amount (Ib) of ETU Contaminate
      in Nabam Formulation Used (based on 0.5% ETU contaminate
      in nabam formulations) + Body Weight (70 kg)

      ii.     Adjusted ETU ADE (//g/kg/day) =

      ETU ADE (//g/kg/day) X Percent Dermal Absorption of ETU
      (30%)

3.    Total Calculation of ETU Average Daily Exposure

      Total ETU Adjusted Average Daily Exposure =

      ETU ADE Converted (Table 2(c)) + Adj. ETU ADE (Table 3(b))

      These calculations of daily exposure to nabam and ETU by
handlers are used to assess the risk to those handlers.

Post-Application Exposure

      EPA has determined there are possible exposures to persons
working at industrial sites where nabam is applied, such as persons
cleaning or maintaining the equipment.  No post-application data are
available to directly assess these exposures. However, post-application
dermal exposures resulting from nabam use-patterns are likely to be
minimal, since the exposures are to highly diluted nabam, not the
concentrate, and the exposures are likely to be brief, since the post-
application tasks do not involve prolonged contact with nabam-treated
surfaces.  Post-application inhalation exposures to nabam also are likely
to be minimal, since nabam has very low vapor pressure and is,
therefore, unlikely to generate sufficient vapor to cause a concern to
workers performing post-application tasks.
                      19

-------
3.     Risk Assessment

      a.     Dietary

             An assessment for human health risk from dietary exposure was
      not performed because nabam has no registered food uses under EPA
      purview.

      b.     Occupational and Residential

             The Margin of Exposure (MOE) for nabam was calculated as
      follows:

             Short and Intermediate-Term MOE =

             NOEL (328//g/kg/day)
             Adj. Nabam ADE (//g/kg/day)

             The cancer risk for ETU was calculated as follows:

      1.     Average Daily  Dose Per Year (ADD) =

      Total Adj ETU ADE (//g/kg/day) X [Exposure Frequency (EF) (days) +
      365 days/year)]

      2.     Lifetime Average Daily Dose (LADD) (//g/kg/day) =

      ADD (//g/kg/day) X [40 work-years + 75 years lifetime]

      3.     Cancer Risk =

      LADD (//g/kg/day) X Q* (//g/kg/day)'1

      Risk From Handler (Mixers/Loaders/Applicators) Exposure

             The Agency conducted an assessment of the risks associated
      with handler exposures to nabam and its contaminant ETU. The results
      are presented in Tables 2(a) through 4(c).

             The margins of exposure (MOEs) associated with nabam are
      greater than 100 for all exposure scenarios, EXCEPT the following:

      1. open-pour liquid applications in water cooling systems (MOE 4),


                           20

-------
2.  open-pour solid applications to drilling muds and packer fluids
(MOE 43),
3.  open-pour solid applications to secondary and tertiary oil recovery
water systems (MOE 9.6).

      The cancer risk associated with exposures to ETU are 1 x  10"5 or
lower, except for open pour liquid applications in water cooling systems
(cancer risk 3.9 x 10"5).

Risk From Post Application Exposure

      Since post-application dermal and inhalation exposures resulting
from nabam use-patterns are likely to be minimal, no risk assessment is
required.
                      21

TABLE 2:    USING AQUATREAT DNM-360 SOLUBLE CONCENTRATE LIQUID
             WITH 18% OF ACTIVE INGREDIENT NABAM

Assumptions

For industrial recirculating water cooling systems: 1) 10.88 ounces of product per 1,000
gallons of water in the system (100 ppm) as initial dose,  and 20,000 gallons of water per use
for a total of 217.6 ounces of product used. 2) By weight, this is equal to:  217.6 ounces
divided by 128 ounces per gallon X 9.8 Ibs per gallon = 16.66 pounds of product added 3)
16.66 Ibs X 0.18 = 3 Ibs of active ingredient handled.

For drilling mud and packer fluids: 1) 4.17 gallons per 100 bbl. of mud (it can be used
directly from the shipping container or pre-diluted with water, it can be put through the mud
hopper or added to the pump suction)  2) By weight, 4.17 gallons of product is equal to: 4.17
gallons X 9.8 Ibs per gallon = 40.87 pounds of product added. 3) 40.87 Ibs X 0.18 = 7.36

             360, 18% OF ACTIVE INGREDIENT (DRILLING MUD & PACKER
             FLUIDS)

Assumptions:

For sugar mills processing water : 1) 4 gallons (39.2 pounds) of AMA-30 per 1,000 tons of
beets sliced per 24 hours. 2) By weight, 39.2 pounds of AMA-30 X 0.15 = 5.88 Ibs of active
ingredient used.

For paper mill water:  1) 2 pounds of product per ton of finished paper and 100 tons of
finished paper treated per use for a total of 200 pounds of product added. 3) By weight; 200
Ibs X 0.15 = 30 Ibs of active ingredient used.

For industrial recirculating water cooling systems: 1) 136 fluid ounces of product per
each 1,000 gallons of water in the system (120 ppm) as the initial dose with the mechanical
delivery metering pump 2) 20,000 gallons of water treated and 272 ounces of product used 3)
One gallon of product is 9.6 Ibs (label), and is equal to 128 fluid ounces, therefore, 272
ounces divided by 128 ounces = 2.13 gallons of product 4) By weight, 2.13 gallons of product
X 9.6 Ibs/gallon X 0.15 = 3.07 Ibs of active  ingredient used.

For drilling mud and packer fluids: 1) 4.17 gallons of AQUATREAT DNM-360 (18% ai)
per 100 bbl. of mud (it can be used directly from the shipping container or pre-diluted with
water; or it can be put through the mud hopper or added to the pump suction)  2) By weight,
4.17 gallons of product X 9.8 Ibs per gallon = 40.87 pounds of product added 3) 40.87 Ibs X
0.18 = 7.36 pounds of active ingredient used

TABLE 4:    USING AQUATREAT DNM-80 POWDER, 40% ACTIVE INGREDIENT
             OF NABAM

Assumptions:

For cooling water systems: Based on the information from the label (EPA Reg. 31910-20,
2/1/95), 1 pound of product added into 1,000 gallons of water in the industrial recirculating
water cooling tower and evaporative condensers as the initial dose. This dose may be repeated
three times per week.  If a system needs 5,000 gallons of water to treat each time, 5 Ibs of
AQUATREAT DNM-80 are added into the system = 2 Ibs of active ingredient handled each
time.

For pulp and paper mill water: Based on the information from the label (EPA Reg. 31910-
20, 2/1/95), 0.75 pounds of AQUATREAT DNM-80 powder added per ton of hydropulper.
Assuming that 1  ton of hydropulper is treated for each handled activity : 0.75 Ibs X 0.4 = 0.3
Ibs of a.i. added into the pulp system.

For drilling mud and packer fluids: Based on the information from the label (EPA Reg.
31910-20, 2/1/95), 15 pounds of AQUATREAT DNM-80, 40% a.i. of nabam powder added
into 100 bbl of mud (300 ppm). A total of 15 Ibs X 0.4 = 6 pounds of a.i. are handled.

For secondary and tertiary petroleum recovery water: Based on the information from the
label (EPA Reg.  31910-20, 2/1/95), a total of 6.7 pounds of AQUATREAT DNM-80 powder
are added per 100 bbl of water.  Assuming that 1,000 bbl of water are treated per use, a total
of 67 Ibs X 0.4 = 26.8 Ibs  a.i. are handled.

Environmental Assessment
       1.     Ecological Toxicity Data

             Nabam was found to be practically nontoxic to birds on an acute oral
       and subacute dietary basis and practically nontoxic to bees. Available data
       indicated that nabam is slightly to moderately toxic to both cold and warm
       water fish and moderately toxic to freshwater invertebrates. Additionally,
       nabam ranged from being highly toxic to practically nontoxic to
       estuarine/marine organisms. Ecological testing of ETU, a primary degradate of
       nabam, previously had been required; however, because of the current limited
       uses of nabam, these tests are not required.

             a.     Toxicity to Terrestrial Animals

                    (1)    Birds, Acute and Subacute

                          To establish the toxicity of nabam to birds, the following
                    tests are required:  one avian single-dose oral (LD50) study on
                    one species (preferably mallard or bobwhite quail); one subacute
                    dietary study (LC50) on one species (preferably the mallard duck
                    or bobwhite quail). The following tables show the results of
                    these tests.

       These results indicate that nabam is practically nontoxic to birds
       on an acute oral and subacute dietary basis. The guideline
       requirements are fulfilled (MRID #159771, 22923).

       (2)    Insects

             A honey bee acute contact LD50 study is required if the
       proposed use will result in honey bee exposure.  Nabam uses are
       aquatic non-food industrial and no  honey bee acute testing is
       required for this use pattern. However, a study was submitted
       and reviewed.  The following table shows the results.

b.     Toxicity to Aquatic Animals

       (1)    Freshwater Fish

             To establish the toxicity of a pesticide to freshwater fish,
       the minimum data required on the technical grade of the active
       ingredient is  one freshwater fish toxicity study using either a
       coldwater fish (preferably the rainbow trout) or a warmwater fish
       (preferably the bluegill sunfish). The following table shows the
       results of these studies.

                    The results of the two 96-hour acute toxicity studies indicate that
                    nabam and nabam-containing products are slightly to moderately
                    toxic to both cold and warm water fish.  The guideline
                    requirement for acute toxicity testing on freshwater fish is
                    fulfilled (Accession #157611).

                    (2)    Freshwater Invertebrates

                           The minimum testing required to assess the hazard of a
                    pesticide to freshwater invertebrates is a freshwater aquatic
                    invertebrate toxicity test, preferably using first instar Daphnia
                    magna or early instar amphipods, stoneflies, mayflies, or midges.
                    The following table shows the results of testing with Daphnia
                    magna.

1. Static test on 30% nabam.
                          There is sufficient information to characterize nabam as
                    moderately toxic to aquatic invertebrates. The guideline
                    requirement is fulfilled (MRID #40164046).
                    (3)
Estuarine and Marine Animals
                          Acute toxicity testing with estuarine and marine
                    organisms is required when an end-use product is intended for
                    direct application to the marine/estuarine environment or is
                    expected to reach this environment in significant concentrations.
                    The aquatic nonfood use of nabam may result in exposure to the
                    estuarine environment.

                      The requirements under this category include a 96-hour LC50
                    for an estuarine fish, a 96-hour LC50 for shrimp, and either a 48-
                    hour embryo-larvae study  or a 96-hour shell deposition study
                    with oysters. The following table shows the results of these
                    studies.

              c.     Toxicity to Plants

                     Terrestrial and aquatic plant testing (seedling emergence and
              vegetative vigor) is not required for the currently registered uses of
              nabam. Those studies are required for herbicides with terrestrial
              nonfood/feed or aquatic nonfood (except residential) use patterns.
              However,  if incidents or adverse effects to plants are reported to the
              Agency, these plant data may be required.
                                      35

2.    Environmental Fate

      a.     Environmental Fate Assessment

      General Issues Related to Nabam-Containing Products

             All of the manufacturing-use products and end-products
      containing nabam as an active ingredient require a National Pollutant
      Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit for discharge of treated
      effluents. In addition, the discharge of treated fuel tank bottom water is
      regulated under the Agency's Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
      (RCRA). The only data requirement that applies in this case is
      guideline 161-1, Hydrolysis.

             Since ethylene thiourea (ETU) is a major degradate of nabam
      and one of toxicological concern, data on degradation and transport of
      ETU have been included in this assessment.

             It is important to realize that all of the registered products
      containing nabam as an active ingredient also contain sodium
      dimethyldithiocarbamate (SDDC), another active ingredient regulated
      separately by the Agency.  The present assessment is based on nabam
      alone.
       b.     Environmental Fate and Transport: Nabam and Ethylene
             Thiourea

             Nabam and its primary degradates, except for ethylene thiourea
       (ETU), do not persist in the environment.  They are susceptible to
       chemical and microbial degradation. ETU does biodegrade, but it is
       stable to chemical degradation (hydrolysis and photodegradation).  ETU
       is persistent in abiotic environments, highly soluble in water and
       mobile, with low adsorption to soils, and thus may reach and persist in
       ground and surface waters.  Because ETU is the most stable, toxic and
       mobile degradate of nabam, it is the degradate of environmental
       concern.

             The degradation of nabam in aqueous media is driven by
       hydrolytic reactions.  Hydrolytic and photolytic reactions further
       contribute to degrade some of the primary hydrolytic products,
       particularly ethylene bis-isocyanate (EBIS). In both the abiotic
                            36

-------
hydrolysis and photolysis in water studies the amount of ETU present is
the highest at pH 9, but at all pHs, the amount of ETU formed increases
with time. However, in irradiated solutions, the amounts of ETU
present at comparable sampling times are lower than in the
abiotichydrolysis studies. Furthermore, the amounts of ethylene urea
(EU) are much higher in irradiated solutions than in non-irradiated,
abiotic solutions. There is evidence that EBIS, which is the first
hydrolytic product of nabam, is likely to be the photolabile species and
behaves as a precursor to ETU and EU via hydrolytic and/or photolytic
reactions. Hydantoin is also a degradate of nabam, but it is a relatively
minor degradation product.

      Laboratory studies conducted with ETU as the test substance
indicate that ETU is persistent to abiotic hydrolysis and direct
photolysis, but that it does biodegrade. Data indicate that ETU may
degrade rapidly in viable soils incubated under aerobic conditions; a
laboratory half-life of less than 2 days has been reported. Under
anaerobic conditions, ETU is more persistent, with reported half-lives of
149 days. The adsorption of ETU to soils is weak and seems to be
controlled by the concentration of soil organic matter; Kads values for
ETU are less than or equal to 1.14 in all soils tested.  Therefore, ETU
has the potential to leach to and persist in ground water, particularly in
areas of low organic matter, highly permeable soils and shallow ground
water tables.

      (1)    Hydrolysis and Photodegradation of Nabam in
             Aqueous Media

      The chemical transformations of parent nabam and its major
degradation products in homogeneous aqueous media are complex and
may  involve labile intermediate products that are difficult to analyze. In
addition, reaction products such as ethylene bis-isocyanate (EBIS)
appears to undergo further hydrolysis and be prone to degrade by  direct
photolysis.

      Parent nabam degrades very rapidly in abiotic aqueous media
(estimated at less than 1 hour). The first major hydrolysis product is
ethylene bisisocyanate sulfide (EBIS), but this degradate appears to
undergo further degradation to ethylene thiourea (ETU).  The amount of
EBIS initially formed is higher at pH 9 than at pH 5. In general, the
formation of ETU increases as a function of time, regardless of the pH
of the medium, but the amount formed is higher at pH 9.  Other
hydrolytic products are hydantoin (present at pHs  5 and 7 but not at pH
                      37

-------
9) and ethylene urea (EU). There was not a distinct pattern of formation
and decline for any of the degradates. The maximum amount of ETU
was near 88%  of the recovered radioactivity after 504 hours (pHs 7 and
9), but the data suggest that ETU may be more stable at pH 9. No rate
constants or half-lives were calculated for nabam because no
degradation pattern could be established.

      There is evidence that EBIS, the first major hydrolytic product of
nabam, is a photolabile species.  The electronic absorption spectra (260-
430 nm) of EBIS in aqueous solutions at pHs 5, 7 and 9 show "tailing"
of an absorption band above 290 nm, which indicates that EBIS would
be prone to undergo direct photolysis reactions. In addition, EBIS is
less persistent under irradiation than in the absence of irradiation.  Less
ETU and more EU are present in irradiated solutions than in non-
irradiated solutions, suggesting that the relative increase in EU over
ETU may be a result of a photoprocess (either from EBIS and/or from
photo-oxidation of ETU). An estimate of the half-lives of EBIS in
irradiated solutions was 19, 38 and 16 hours at pH 5, 7 and 9,
respectively. These degradation kinetics data do not reflect the actual
degradation of EBIS (as test substance),  since EBIS was a reaction
product of nabam that was degrading (hydrolytically and photolytically)
as it was being formed (MRID #00165028, 40535201).

      (2)    Mobility of Nabam

      Nabam and EBIS,  its first major hydrolytic product, are not
sufficiently persistent to estimate absorption constants in soils. Since
ETU is a major degradate of nabam and one of toxicological concern,
the mobility and other issues related to the environmental fate of ETU
are addressed below.

      (3)    Ethylene Thiourea (ETU) - A Degradate of Concern

      ETU is stable to abiotic hydrolysis at pH 5, 7 and 9 (MRID
#40466103).

      Irradiation of ETU solutions at pH 7 shows that ETU does not
degrade significantly  and thus, it is not expected to break down in the
environment by direct photolysis. Photodegradation on Lawrenceville
silty loam soil  surfaces is not significant and any degradation occurring
is the result of biodegradation or other oxidative processes, with half-
lives of 2.5 days (dark) and 1.26 days (irradiated). Degradation
products such as EU and 2-imidazoline were identified in this study,
                      38

-------
      where increasing amounts of non-extractable material were observed
      overtime (MRID #40466101, 40466102).

             There are no acceptable data on aerobic soil metabolism of ETU,
      but data such as that from photodegradation on soil surfaces indicate
      that ETU may degrade rapidly on viable soils under aerobic conditions.
      However, an anaerobic aquatic metabolism study conducted with maneb
      as the test substance indicates that the levels of ETU formed from the
      degradation of maneb (via EBIS) remain fairly constant, with an
      estimated half-life of 149 days (MRID #00163335).

             Data from batch-equilibrium adsorption/desorption studies
      conducted with ETU as the test substance indicate that ETU does not
      bind strongly to soils. The Freundlich Kad values ranged from 0.51
      (clay loam) to 1.13 (silt loam).  The organic carbon adsorption
      coefficients (Koc) ranged from 34 (clay loam) to 145 (sand). However,
      there appears to be no strong correlation with percent soil  organic
      matter, soil cation exchange capacity or soil pH (MRID #40222902).

      c.     Water Resources

             (1)    Ground Water

             The current non-agricultural uses of nabam are not likely to
      impact ground water resources.  All uses of nabam carry an NPDES
      permit requirement for discharge of treated effluents.

             (2)    Surface Water

             Nabam is not applied directly to surface water, but industrial
      effluents with nabam residues require NPDES permits for discharge into
      water bodies.

3.    Exposure and Risk Characterization

      a.     Ecological Exposure and Risk Characterization

             The Agency requires only a limited set of ecotoxicology and
      environmental fate studies for microbiocides. While the hazard to
      aquatic organisms from nabam has been characterized, a quantitative
      risk assessment has not been conducted. The risks to aquatic
      environments are regulated under the NPDES permitting program of the
      Office of Water. The Agency currently requires that labels for all
                            39

-------
                    nabam products require that discharges to aquatic environments comply
                    with an NPDES permit.

                          For microbiocides with once-through cooling tower use patterns,
                    the Agency uses a dilution factor model to calculate screening level
                    EECs and develop risk quotients for a risk screen.  Although nabam has
                    a once-through cooling tower use pattern, the use is for shipboard
                    systems and a screening-level EEC calculation is inappropriate because
                    this calculation is designed to represent concentrations in rivers and
                    streams, not complex marine environments.  Methods for appropriately
                    estimating the concentrations resulting from shipboard uses have not
                    been developed. However, because of the large dilution factor, it is not
                    expected that discharges into marine environments would result in
                    concentrations of concern. Discharges into harbor waters may be more
                    problematic because of the smaller, enclosed area of water and the
                    potential for concentrations of many types of chemicals in these areas.

                    b.     Water Resources Risk Implication for Human Health

                          The degradate ethylene thiourea (ETU), a probable human
                    carcinogen, is regulated by the Agency's Office of Drinking Water. The
                    longer-term Health Advisory for a 10 kg child is 0.1 mg/L and for a 70-
                    kg adult, 0.4 mg/L.

                    c.     Endangered Species

                          The Agency does not anticipate any exposure of concern to fish
                    and wildlife, providing that all nabam products require that discharges
                    to the environment comply with all disposal laws or a NPDES permit.
IV.    RISK MANAGEMENT AND REREGISTRATION DECISION

       A.    Determination of Eligibility

             Section 4(g)(2)(A) of FIFRA calls for the Agency to determine, after
       submission of relevant data concerning an active ingredient, whether products
       containing the active ingredient are eligible for reregi strati on.  The Agency has
       previously identified and required the submission of the generic (i.e. active ingredient
       specific) data required to support reregi strati on of products containing nabam. The
       Agency has completed its review of these generic data, and has determined that the
       data are sufficient to support reregi strati on of all products containing nabam.
                                         40

-------
Appendix B identifies the generic data requirements that the Agency reviewed as part
of its determination of reregi strati on eligibility of nabam, and lists the submitted
studies that the Agency found acceptable.

       The data identified in Appendix B were sufficient to allow the Agency to assess
the registered uses of nabam and to determine that nabam can be used as specified in
this document without resulting in unreasonable adverse effects to humans and the
environment, provided the changes specified in this document are implemented.  The
Agency therefore finds that all products containing nabam as the active ingredient are
eligible for reregi strati on. The reregi strati on of particular products is addressed in
Section V of this document.

       The Agency made its reregi strati on eligibility determination based upon the
target data base required for reregistration, the current guidelines for conducting
acceptable studies to generate such data, published scientific literature, etc. and the
data identified in Appendix B. Although the Agency has found that all uses of nabam
as specified in this document are eligible for reregistration, it should be understood
that the Agency may take appropriate regulatory action, and/or require the submission
of additional data to support the registration of products containing nabam, if new
information comes to the Agency's attention or if the data requirements for registration
(or the guidelines for generating such data) change.

B.     Determination of Eligibility Decision

       1.      Eligibility Decision

              Based on the reviews of the generic data for the active ingredient
       nabam, the Agency has sufficient information on the health effects of nabam
       and on its potential for causing adverse effects in fish and wildlife and the
       environment. The Agency has determined that nabam products, labeled and
       used as specified in this Reregistration Eligibility Decision, will not pose
       unreasonable risks or adverse effects to humans or the environment. Therefore,
       the Agency concludes that products containing nabam for all uses are eligible
       for reregistration.

       2.      Eligible and Ineligible Uses

              The Agency has determined that all uses of nabam are eligible for
       reregistration. The Agency is prohibiting open pour applications of liquid
       formulations in water cooling systems (e.g. towers). Additionally, all solid/dry
       formulations of nabam must be placed in water soluble packaging.
                                    41

-------
C.     Regulatory Position

       The following is a summary of the regulatory positions and rationales for
nabam. Where labeling revisions are imposed, specific language is set forth in Section
V of this document.

       1.     Tolerance Reassessment

             There are no existing tolerances for nabam regulated by EPA.

       2.     Reference Dose

             The Agency has not set an RfD for nabam at this time.

       3.     Endangered Species Statement

             The Agency does not anticipate any exposure of concern to fish and
       wildlife, providing that all nabam products require that discharges to the
       environment comply with all disposal laws or a NPDES permit.

       4.     Labeling Rationale

             Occupational and Residential Labeling Rationale/Risk Mitigation

             Personal Protective Equipment/Engineering Controls for Handlers

             For each end-use product, PPE requirements for pesticide handlers are
       set during reregi strati on in one of two ways:

                    1. If EPA determines that no regulatory action must be taken as
                    the result of the acute effects or other adverse effects of an active
                    ingredient, the PPE for pesticide handlers will be based on the
                    acute toxicity of the end-use product. For occupational-use
                    products, PPE must be established using the process described in
                    PR Notice 93-7 or more recent EPA guidelines.

                    2. If EPA determines that regulatory action on an active
                    ingredient must be taken as the result of very high acute toxicity
                    or to certain other adverse effects, such as allergic effects or
                    delayed effects (cancer, developmental toxicity, reproductive
                    effects, etc.):
                                   42

-------
                    •     In the RED for that active ingredient, EPA
                          may establish minimum or "baseline"
                          handler PPE requirements that pertain to
                          all or most end-use products containing
                          that active ingredient.
                    •     These minimum PPE requirements must be
                          compared with the PPE that would be
                          designated on the basis of the  acute
                          toxicity of the  end-use product.
                    •     The more stringent choice for each type of
                          PPE (i.e., bodywear, hand protection,
                          footwear, eyewear, etc.) must  be placed on
                          the label  of the end-use product.

       Personal protective equipment requirements usually are set by
specifying one or more pre-established PPE units — sets of items that
are almost always required together. For example, if chemical-resistant
gloves are required, then long-sleeve shirts, long pants, socks, and shoes
are assumed and are also included in the required minimum attire. If the
requirement is for two layers of body protection (coveralls  over a long-
or short-sleeve shirt and long or short  pants), the minimum  must also
include (for all handlers) chemical-resistant footwear and chemical-
resistant headgear for overhead exposures and  (for mixers,  loaders, and
persons cleaning equipment) chemical-resistant aprons.

Occupational-Use Products

       EPA has determined that the establishment of active-ingredient-
based minimum PPE requirements for occupational handlers is
warranted for nabam.  All the exposure studies were conducted with
handlers wearing chemical-resistant gloves  and there were not sufficient
data to predict the probable exposure without chemical-resistant gloves;
therefore, chemical-resistant gloves will be required on all nabam end-
use product labeling. In addition, since the MOE was greater than 100
for metering-pump liquid applications in water cooling systems (e.g.
towers), but less than 100 for open-pour liquid applications in water
cooling systems, EPA will require liquid formulations in water cooling
systems to be applied by mechanical loading delivery systems (such as
metering pump, gravity fed, manual pump, pressurized, probe, etc.) and
prohibit open-pour applications. The Agency is requiring dry
formulations of nabam to be placed in water-soluble packaging.
                      43

-------
                   Post-Application/Entry Restrictions

                   Occupational-Use Products

                          EPA has determined that no regulatory action must be taken to
                   reduce post-application exposures to nabam, since post-application
                   dermal and inhalation exposures are already likely to be minimal.

                   Homeowner-Use Products

                          There are no homeowner uses of nabam.

                   Other Labeling Requirements

                   The Agency is also requiring other use and safety information to be
             placed on the labeling of all end-use products containing nabam. The Agency
             is also requiring labeling statements to clarify the intent of the oil recovery
             drilling muds/packer fluids use either as an aquatic or terrestrial non-food use
             pattern.  For the specific labeling statements, refer to Section V of this
             document.

V.    ACTIONS REQUIRED OF REGISTRANTS

      This section specifies the data requirements and responses necessary for the
reregi strati on of both manufacturing-use and end-use products.

      A.     Manufacturing-Use Products

             1.     Additional Generic Data Requirements

                   The generic data base supporting the reregi strati on of nabam for the
             above eligible uses has been reviewed and determined to be substantially
             complete for all uses. The following data  were previously required in the
             nabam Registration Standard and have data deficiencies which can be
             upgraded:

       Guideline 81-3 - Acute Inhalation Toxicity - Rat

2.     Labeling Requirements for Manufacturing-Use Products

       To remain in compliance with FIFRA, manufacturing use product (MP)
labeling must be revised to comply with all current EPA regulations, PR
Notices and applicable policies.  In addition, the MP labeling must bear the
following statement under Directions for Use:

       "Only for formulation into an [fill blank with Insecticide, Herbicide or
       the applicable term which describes the type of pesticide use(s)] for the
       following use(s) [fill blank only with those uses that are being supported
       by MP registrant."]

An MP registrant may, at his/her discretion, add one of the following
statements to an MP label under

       "Directions  for Use" to permit the reformulation of the product
       for a specific use or all additional uses supported by a formulator
       or user group:

(a)    "This product may be used to formulate products for specific
       use(s) not listed on the MP label if the formulator, user group, or
       grower has complied with U.S. EPA submission requirements
       regarding support of such use(s)."

(b)    "This product may be used to formulate products for any
       additional use(s) not listed on the MP label if the formulator,
       user group,  or grower has complied with U.S. EPA submission
       requirements regarding support of such use(s)."

             Effluent Discharge Statement

"Do not discharge effluent containing this product into lakes, streams,
ponds, estuaries, oceans  or other waters unless in accordance with the
                            45

-------
      requirements of a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
      (NPDES) permit and the permitting authority has been notified in
      writing prior to discharge.  Do not discharge effluent containing this
      product to sewer systems without previously notifying the local sewage
      treatment plant authority. For guidance contact your State Water Board
      or Regional Office of the EPA."

B.    End-Use Products

      1.     Additional Product-Specific Data Requirements

             Section 4(g)(2)(B) of FIFRA calls for the Agency to obtain any needed
      product-specific data regarding the pesticide after a determination of eligibility
      has been made. The product specific data requirements are listed in Appendix
      D, the Product Specific Data Call-In Notice.

             Registrants must review previous data submissions to ensure that they
      meet current EPA acceptance criteria and if not, commit to conduct new
      studies.  If a registrant believes that previously submitted data meet current
      testing standards,  then study MRID numbers should be cited according to the
      instructions in the Requirement Status and Registrants Response Form
      provided for each product.

      2.     Labeling Requirements for End-Use Products

      Worker Protection Standard

             No nabam end-use products are within the scope of the Worker
      Protection Standard for Agricultural Pesticides (40 CFR parts 170 and 156).
      However, personal protective equipment for non-WPS occupational use is
      required and is discussed below.

      Effluent Discharge Labeling Statements

             Refer to subsection A. above for labeling requirements for effluent
      discharge.

      PPE/Engineering Control Requirements for Pesticide Handlers

             For sole-active-ingredient end-use products that contain nabam, the
      product labeling must be revised to adopt the handler personal protective
      equipment/engineering control requirements set forth in this section.  Any
      conflicting PPE requirements on the current labeling must be removed.
                                  46

-------
      For multiple-active-ingredient end-use products that contain nabam,
the handler personal protective equipment/engineering control requirements set
forth in this section must be compared to the requirements on the current
labeling and the more protective must be retained. For guidance on which
requirements are considered more protective, see PR Notice 93-7.

Products Intended Primarily for Occupational Use

      Minimum  (Baseline) PPE/Engineering Control  Requirements

      The minimum (baseline) PPE for all occupational uses of nabam end-
      use products is:

             Minimum PPE:
             "Applicators and other handlers must wear:

             —long-sleeve shirt and long pants
             —chemical-resistant gloves*,
             —socks plus shoes

             * For the glove statement, use the statement established for
             nabam through the instructions in Supplement Three of PR
             Notice 93-7.

      Engineering Control Requirements

      For liquid formulations:
      In the "Directions For Use" portion of the label referring to these uses,
      registrants must insert the following language:

             "This product must be loaded and transferred only using a
             metering-pump system or a closed loading/application system
             for the following uses: (list each of the following uses for which
             the end-use product is labeled: air washer water systems;
             commercial/industrial water cooling systems (includes shipboard
             seawater cooling systems); evaporative condenser water systems;
             pasteurizer/warmer/cannery  cooling water systems; and heat
             exchanger water systems.}. Open pouring is prohibited."

      For dry formulations:
      All nabam end-use products formulated as a dry formulation must be
      placed in water-soluble packaging.
                            47

-------
Determining PPE Requirements for End-Use Product Labels

The PPE that would be established on the basis of the acute toxicity
category of the end-use product must be compared to the active-
ingredient-based minimum (baseline) personal protective equipment
specified above. The more protective PPE must be placed on the
product labeling. For guidance on which PPE is considered more
protective, see PR Notice 93-7.

Placement in Labeling

The personal protective equipment requirements must be placed on the
end-use product labeling in the location specified in PR Notice 93-7,
and the format and language of the PPE requirements must be the same
as is specified in PR Notice 93-7.

Other Labeling Requirements

      Registrants must specify on labeling the complete directions for
use for each  use pattern:  site of application, type of application, timing
of application, equipment used for application, and the rate of
application (dosage).

Products Intended Primarily for Occupational Use

      The Agency is requiring the following labeling statements to be
located on all end-use products containing nabam that are intended
primarily for occupational use.

Application Restrictions

"Do not apply this product in a way that will contact
workers or other persons."

User Safety Requirements

1.     Registrant: place the following statement on the end-use product
label if coveralls are required for pesticide handlers:

"Discard clothing  or other absorbent materials that have  been drenched
or heavily contaminated with this product's concentrate.  Do not reuse
them."
                     48

-------
       2.     Registrant: place the following statement on the end-use product
       label:

       "Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning/maintaining
       PPE. If no such instructions for washables, use detergent and hot
       water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry."

       User Safety Recommendations

       •     "Users should wash hands before eating, drinking,
             chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet."

       •     "Users should remove clothing immediately if
             pesticide gets inside.  Then wash thoroughly and
             put on clean clothing."

       •     "Users should remove PPE immediately after
             handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves
             before removing. As soon as possible, wash
             thoroughly and change into clean clothing."

       Skin Sensitizer Statement

       "This product may cause skin sensitization reactions in
       some people."

3.     Clarification of Oil Drilling Mud Use

       The following statement must be added to the labels for terrestrial non-
food oil/gas drilling muds and packer fluids:

       "For use in terrestrial wells only."

And the following statement must be added to the precautionary labeling:

       "Do not apply in marine and/or estuarine oil fields."

       The following statement must be added to the labels for aquatic non-
food industrial oil/gas drilling muds and packer fluids:

       "For use in offshore wells  only."
                            49

-------
             For use in both terrestrial and offshore oil/gas drilling muds and packer
       fluids, the following statement must be added:

             "This product may be used for terrestrial and offshore oil/gas drilling
             muds and packer fluids."

C.     Existing Stocks

       Registrants may generally distribute and sell products bearing old
labels/labeling for 26 months from the date of the issuance of this Reregi strati on
Eligibility Decision (RED). Persons other than the registrant may generally distribute
or sell  such products for 50 months from the date of the issuance of this RED.
However, existing stocks time frames will be established case-by-case, depending on
the number of products involved, the number of label changes, and other factors. Refer
to "Existing Stocks of Pesticide Products; Statement of Policy"; Federal Register.
Volume 56, No.  123, June 26, 1991.

       The Agency has determined that registrants may distribute and sell nabam
products bearing old labels/labeling for 26 months from the date of issuance of this
RED.  Persons other than the registrant may distribute or sell such products for 50
months from the date of the issuance of this RED. Registrants and persons other than
registrants remain obligated to meet pre-existing Agency imposed label changes and
existing stocks requirements applicable to products they sell or distribute.

                                    GUIDE TO APPENDIX B
Appendix B contains listings of data requirements which support the reregi strati on for active ingredients
within the case nabam covered by this Reregi strati on Eligibility Decision Document. It contains generic data
requirements that  apply  to  nabam  in  all products, including data requirements  for which a "typical
formulation" is the test substance.

       The data table is organized in the following format:

       1. Data Requirement (Column 1). The data requirements are listed in the order in which they appear
in 40 CFR Part  158. the reference  numbers accompanying each  test refer to the test protocols set in the
Pesticide Assessment Guidelines, which are available from the National Technical Information Service, 5285
Port Royal Road, Springfield, VA 22161 (703) 487-4650.

       2.  Use Pattern (Column 2).  This column indicates the use patterns for which the data requirements
apply.  The following letter designations are  used for the given use patterns:

                          A      Terrestrial food
                          B      Terrestrial feed
                          C      Terrestrial non-food
                          D      Aquatic  food
                          E      Aquatic  non-food outdoor
                          F      Aquatic  non-food industrial
                          G      Aquatic  non-food residential
                          H      Greenhouse food
                          I      Greenhouse non-food

                                    GUIDE TO APPENDIX C

1.      CONTENTS OF BIBLIOGRAPHY.  This bibliography contains citations of all studies considered
       relevant by EPA in arriving at the positions  and conclusions stated elsewhere in the Reregi strati on
       Eligibility Document. Primary  sources for studies in this bibliography have been the body of data
       submitted to EPA and its predecessor agencies in support of past regulatory decisions.  Selections
       from other sources including the published literature, in those instances where they have been
       considered, are included.

2.      UNITS OF ENTRY. The unit of entry in this bibliography is called a "study". In the case of
       published materials, this corresponds closely to an article. In the case of unpublished materials
       submitted to the Agency, the Agency has sought to identify documents at a level parallel to the
       published article from within the typically larger volumes in which they were submitted.  The
       resulting  "studies" generally have a distinct  title (or at least a single subject), can stand alone for
       purposes  of review and can be described with a conventional bibliographic citation. The Agency
       has also attempted to unite basic documents and commentaries upon them, treating them as a single
       study.

3.      IDENTIFICATION OF ENTRIES. The entries in this bibliography are sorted numerically by
       Master Record Identifier, or "MRID number".  This number is unique to the citation, and should be
       used whenever a specific reference is required. It is not related to the six-digit "Accession
       Number"  which has been used to identify volumes of submitted studies (see paragraph 4(d)(4)
       below for further explanation).  In a few cases, entries added to the bibliography late in the review
       may be preceded by a nine character temporary identifier. These entries are listed after all MRID
       entries. This temporary identifying number is also to be used whenever specific reference is
       needed.

4.      FORM OF ENTRY. In addition to the Master Record Identifier (MRID), each entry consists of a
       citation containing standard elements followed, in the case of material submitted to EPA, by a
       description of the earliest known submission.  Bibliographic conventions used reflect the  standard
       of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI),  expanded to provide for certain special
       needs.

       a       Author. Whenever the author could  confidently be identified, the Agency has chosen to
              show a personal author.  When no individual was identified, the Agency has shown an
              identifiable laboratory or testing facility as the author. When no author or laboratory could
              be identified, the Agency has shown the first submitter as the author.

       b.      Document date. The date of the study is taken directly from the document. When the date
              is  followed by a question mark, the bibliographer has deduced the date from the evidence
              contained in the document.  When the date appears as (19??), the Agency was unable to
              determine or estimate the date of the document.

       c.      Title. In some cases, it has been necessary for the Agency bibliographers to create or
              enhance a document title. Any such editorial insertions are contained between square
              brackets.
                                               77

-------
d.     Trailing parentheses. For studies submitted to the Agency in the past, the trailing
      parentheses include (in addition to any self-explanatory text) the following elements
      describing the earliest known submission:

      (1)    Submission date. The date of the earliest known submission appears immediately
             following the word "received."

      (2)    Administrative number. The next element immediately following the word "under"
             is the registration number, experimental use permit number, petition number, or
             other administrative number associated with the earliest known submission.

      (3)    Submitter. The third element is the submitter. When authorship is defaulted to the
             submitter, this element is omitted.

      (4)    Volume Identification (Accession Numbers).  The final element in the trailing
             parentheses identifies the EPA accession number of the volume in which the original
             submission of the study appears.  The six-digit accession number follows the symbol
             "CDL," which stands for "Company Data Library." This accession number is in turn
             followed by an alphabetic suffix which shows the relative position of the study
             within the volume.
                                        78

                                            116

-------
       2. Satisfying the Product Specific Data Requirements of this Notice There are various
options available to satisfy the product specific data requirements of this Notice.  These options are
discussed in Section III-C of this Notice and comprise options 1 through 6 on the Requirements
Status and Registrant's Response Form and item numbers 7a and 7b on the Data Call-In Response
Form. Deletion of a use(s) and the low volume/minor use option are not valid options for fulfilling
product specific data requirements.

       3. Request for Product Specific Data Waivers. Waivers for product specific data are

III-C  SATISFYING THE DATA REQUIREMENTS OF THIS NOTICE

       If you acknowledge on the Data Call-In Response Form that you agree to satisfy the
product specific data requirements (i.e. you select item number 7a or 7b), then you must select one
of the six options on the Requirements Status and Registrant's  Response Form related to data
production for each data requirement. Your option selection should be entered under item number
9, "Registrant Response."  The six options related to data production are the first six options
discussed under item 9 in the instructions for completing the Requirements Status and Registrant's
Response Form.  These six options are listed immediately below with information in parentheses to
guide registrants to additional instructions provided in this Section.  The options are:

       (1)     I will generate and submit data within the specified time frame (Developing Data)
       (2)     I have entered into an agreement with one or more registrants to develop data jointly
              (Cost Sharing)
       (3)     I have made offers to cost-share (Offers to Cost Share)
       (4)     I am submitting an existing study that has not been submitted previously to the
              Agency by anyone (Submitting an Existing Study)
       (5)     I am submitting or citing data to upgrade a study classified by EPA as partially
              acceptable and upgradeable (Upgrading a Study)
       (6)     I am citing an existing study that EPA  has classified as acceptable or an existing
              study that has been submitted but not reviewed  by the Agency (Citing an Existing
              Study)

       Option 1. Developing Data — If you choose to develop the required data it must be in
conformance with Agency deadlines and with other Agency requirements as referenced herein and
in the attachments. All data generated and submitted  must comply with the Good Laboratory
Practice (GLP) rule (40 CFR Part 160), be conducted according to the Pesticide Assessment
Guidelines (PAG), and be in conformance with the requirements of PR Notice 86-5.

       The time frames in the Requirements Status and Registrant's Response Form are the time
frames that the Agency is allowing for the submission of completed study reports. The noted
deadlines run from the date of the receipt of this Notice  by the registrant.  If the data are not
                                            117

-------
submitted by the deadline, each registrant is subject to receipt of a Notice of Intent to Suspend the
affected registration(s).

       If you cannot submit the data/reports to the Agency in the time required by this Notice and
intend to seek additional time to meet the requirements(s), you must submit a request to the Agency
which includes:  (1) a detailed description of the expected difficulty and (2) a proposed schedule
including alternative dates for meeting such requirements on a step-by-step basis. You must
explain any technical or laboratory difficulties and provide documentation from the laboratory
performing the testing.  While EPA is considering your request, the original deadline remains.  The
Agency will respond to your request in writing. If EPA does not grant your request, the original
deadline remains. Normally, extensions can be requested only in cases of extraordinary testing
problems beyond the expectation or control of the registrant. Extensions will not be given in
submitting the 90-day responses.  Extensions will not be considered if the request for extension is
not made in a timely fashion; in no event shall an  extension request be considered if it is submitted
at or after the lapse of the subject deadline.

       Option 2. Agreement to Share in Cost to Develop  Data — Registrants may only choose this
option for acute toxicity data and  certain  efficacy  data and only if EPA has indicated in the attached
data tables that your product and at least one other product are similar for purposes of depending  on
the same data.  If this is the case,  data may  be generated for just one of the products in the group.
The registration number of the product for which  data will be submitted must be noted in the
agreement to cost share by the registrant selecting this option. If you choose to enter into an
agreement to share in the cost of producing the required data but will not be submitting the data
yourself, you must provide the name of the registrant who will be submitting the data. You must
also provide EPA with documentary evidence that an agreement has been formed.  Such evidence
may be your letter offering to join in an agreement and the other registrant's acceptance of your
offer, or a written statement by the parties that an  agreement exists. The agreement to produce the
data need not specify all of the terms of the final arrangement between the parties or the mechanism
to resolve the terms.  Section 3(c)(2)(B) provides  that if the parties cannot resolve the terms of the
agreement they may resolve their differences through binding arbitration.

       Option 3. Offer to Share in the Cost of Data Development — This option only applies to
acute toxicity and certain efficacy data as described in option 2 above.  If you have made an offer to
pay in an attempt to enter into an  agreement or amend an  existing agreement to meet the
requirements of this Notice and have been unsuccessful, you may request EPA (by selecting this
option) to exercise its discretion not to suspend  your registration(s), although you do not comply
with the data submission requirements of this Notice.  EPA has determined that as a general policy,
absent other relevant considerations, it will not suspend the registration of a product of a registrant
who has  in good faith sought and continues to seek to enter into a joint data development/cost
sharing program, but the other registrant(s) developing the data has refused to accept your offer.
To qualify for this option, you must submit documentation to the Agency proving that you have
made an offer to another registrant (who has an obligation to submit data) to share in the burden of
developing that data. You must also submit to the Agency a completed EPA Form 8570-32,
Certification of Offer to Cost Share in the Development of Data, Attachment 7. In addition, you
must demonstrate that the other registrant to whom the offer was made has not accepted your offer
to enter into a cost sharing agreement by  including a copy of your offer and proof of the other

                                            118

-------
registrant's receipt of that offer (such as a certified mail receipt).  Your offer must, in addition to
anything else, offer to share in the burden of producing the data upon terms to be agreed or failing
agreement to be bound by binding arbitration as provided by FIFRA section 3(c)(2)(B)(iii) and
must not qualify this offer.  The other registrant must also inform EPA of its election of an option
to develop and submit the data required by this Notice by submitting a Data Call-In Response Form
and a Requirements Status and Registrant's Response Form committing to develop and submit the
data required by this Notice.

       In order for you to avoid suspension under this option, you may not withdraw your offer to
share in the burdens of developing the data.  In addition, the other registrant must fulfill its
commitment to develop and submit the data as required by this Notice.  If the other registrant fails
to develop the data or for some other reason is subject to suspension, your registration as well as
that of the other registrant will normally be subject to initiation of suspension proceedings, unless
you commit to submit, and do submit the required data in the specified time frame.  In such cases,
the Agency generally will not grant a time extension for submitting the data.

       Option 4. Submitting an Existing Study — If you choose to submit an existing study in
response to this Notice, you must determine that the study satisfies the requirements imposed by
this Notice.  You may only submit a study that has not been previously submitted to the Agency or
previously cited by anyone. Existing studies are studies which predate issuance of this Notice.  Do
not use this option if you are submitting data to upgrade a study. (See Option 5).

       You  should be aware that if the Agency determines that the study is not acceptable, the
Agency will require you to comply with this Notice,  normally without an extension of the  required
date of submission.  The Agency may determine at any time that a study is not valid and needs to
be repeated.

       To meet the requirements of the DCI Notice for submitting an existing study, all of the
following three criteria must be clearly met:

       a.      You must certify at the time that the existing study is submitted that the raw data
              and specimens from the study are available for audit and review and you must
              identify where they are available. This must be done in accordance with the
              requirements of the Good Laboratory  Practice (GLP) regulation, 40 CFR Part 160.
              As stated in 40 CFR 160.3(j) " 'raw data' means any laboratory worksheets, records,
              memoranda, notes, or exact copies thereof, that are the result of original
              observations and activities of a study and are necessary for the reconstruction and
              evaluation of the report of that study.  In the  event that exact transcripts of raw data
              have been prepared (e.g., tapes  which have been transcribed verbatim, dated, and
              verified accurate by signature), the exact copy or exact transcript may be substituted
              for the original source as raw data. 'Raw data' may include photographs, microfilm
              or microfiche  copies, computer printouts, magnetic media, including dictated
              observations, and recorded data from automated instruments."  The term
              "specimens", according to 40 CFR 160.3(k),  means "any material derived from a
              test system for examination or analysis."
                                            119

-------
       b.      Health and safety studies completed after May 1984 must also contain all GLP-
              required quality assurance and quality control information, pursuant to the
              requirements of 40 CFR Part 160.  Registrants must also certify at the time of
              submitting the existing study that such GLP information is available for post-May
              1984 studies by including an appropriate statement on or attached to the study
              signed by an authorized official or representative of the registrant.

       c.      You must certify that each study fulfills the acceptance  criteria for the Guideline
              relevant to the study provided in the FIFRA Accelerated Reregistration Phase 3
              Technical Guidance and that the study has been conducted according to the Pesticide
              Assessment Guidelines  (PAG) or meets the purpose of the PAG (both available
              from NTIS). A study not conducted according to the PAG may be submitted to the
              Agency for consideration if the registrant believes that the study clearly meets the
              purpose of the PAG.  The registrant is referred to 40 CFR 158.70 which states the
              Agency's policy regarding acceptable protocols. If you wish to  submit the study, you
              must, in addition to certifying that  the purposes of the PAG are met by the study,
              clearly articulate the rationale why you believe the study meets the purpose of the
              PAG, including copies of any supporting information or data.  It has been the
              Agency's experience that studies completed prior to January 1970 rarely satisfied the
              purpose of the PAG and that necessary raw data are usually not available for such
              studies.

       If you submit an existing study, you must  certify that the study meets all requirements of
the criteria outlined above.

       If you know of a study pertaining to any requirement in this Notice which does not meet the
criteria outlined above but does contain factual information regarding unreasonable adverse effects,
you must notify the Agency of such a study. If such  study is in the Agency's  files, you need only
cite it along with the notification. If not in the Agency's files, you must submit a summary and
copies as required by PR Notice 86-5.

       Option 5. Upgrading a Study — If a study  has been classified as partially acceptable and
upgradeable, you may submit data to upgrade that study.  The Agency  will review the data
submitted and determine if the requirement is satisfied. If the Agency  decides the requirement is
not satisfied, you may still be required to submit new data normally without any time extension.
Deficient, but upgradeable studies will normally be classified as supplemental. However, it is
important to note that not all  studies classified as  supplemental are upgradeable.  If you have
questions regarding the classification of a study or whether a study may be upgraded, call or write
the contact person listed in Attachment 1.  If you  submit data to upgrade an existing study you must
satisfy or supply information to correct all deficiencies in the study identified by EPA.  You must
provide a clearly articulated rationale of how the deficiencies have been remedied or corrected and
why the study should be rated as acceptable to EPA.  Your submission must also specify the MRID
number(s) of the study which you are attempting to upgrade and must be in conformance with PR
Notice 86-5.
                                            120

-------
       Do not submit additional data for the purpose of upgrading a study classified as
unacceptable and determined by the Agency as not capable of being upgraded.

       This option should also be used to cite data that has been previously submitted to upgrade a
study, but has not yet been reviewed by the Agency. You must provide the MRID number of the
data submission as well as the MRID number of the study being upgraded.

       The criteria for submitting an existing study, as specified in Option 4 above, apply to all
data submissions intended to upgrade studies. Additionally your submission of data intended to
upgrade studies must be accompanied by a certification that you comply with each of those criteria
as well as a certification regarding protocol compliance with Agency requirements.

       Option 6. Citing Existing Studies — If you choose to cite a study that has been previously
submitted to EPA, that study must have been previously classified by EPA as acceptable or it must
be a study which has not yet been reviewed by the Agency. Acceptable toxicology studies
generally will have been classified as "core-guideline" or "core minimum."  For all other
disciplines the classification would be "acceptable."  With respect to any studies for which you
wish to select this option you must provide the MRID number of the study you are citing and,  if the
study has been reviewed by the Agency, you must provide the Agency's classification of the study.

       If you are citing a study of which you are not the original data submitter, you must submit a
completed copy of EPA Form 8570-31, Certification with Respect to Data Compensation
Requirements.

       Registrants who select one of the above 6 options must meet all of the requirements
described in the instructions for completing the Data Call-In Response Form and the Requirements
Status and Registrant's Response Form, as appropriate.

III-D  REQUESTS FOR DATA WAIVERS

              If you request a waiver for product specific data because you believe it is
inappropriate, you must attach a complete justification for the request, including technical reasons,
data and references to relevant EPA regulations, guidelines or policies.  (Note: any supplemental
data must be submitted in the format required by PR Notice 86-5). This will be the only
opportunity to state the reasons or provide information in support of your request.  If the Agency
approves your waiver request, you will not be required to supply the data pursuant to section
3(c)(2)(B) of FIFRA. If the Agency denies your waiver request, you must choose an option for
meeting the data requirements of this Notice within 30 days of the receipt of the Agency's decision.
You must indicate and submit the option chosen on the Requirements Status and Registrant's
Response Form.  Product specific data  requirements for product chemistry, acute toxicity and
efficacy (where appropriate) are required for all products and the Agency would grant a waiver
only under extraordinary circumstances. You should also be  aware that submitting a waiver
request will not automatically extend the due date for the study in question. Waiver requests
submitted without adequate supporting rationale will be denied and the original due date will
remain in force.
                                            121

IV. CONSEQUENCES OF FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS NOTICE

IV-A NOTICE OF INTENT TO SUSPEND

       The Agency may issue a Notice of Intent to Suspend products subject to this Notice due to
failure by a registrant to comply with the requirements of this Data Call-In Notice, pursuant to
FIFRA section 3(c)(2)(B). Events which may be the basis for issuance of a Notice of Intent to
Suspend include, but are not limited to, the following:

       1.     Failure to respond as required by this Notice within 90 days of your receipt of this
             Notice.

       2.     Failure to submit on the required schedule an acceptable proposed or final protocol
             when such is required to be submitted to the Agency for review.

       3.     Failure to submit on the required schedule an adequate progress report on a study as
             required by this Notice.

       4.     Failure to submit on the required schedule acceptable data as required by this
             Notice.

       5.     Failure to take a required action or submit adequate information pertaining to any
             option chosen to address the data requirements (e.g., any required action or
             information pertaining to submission or citation of existing studies or offers,
             arrangements, or arbitration on the sharing of costs or the formation of Task Forces,
             failure to comply with the terms of an agreement or arbitration concerning joint data
             development or failure to comply with any terms of a data waiver).

       6.     Failure to submit supportable certifications as  to the conditions of submitted studies,
             as required by Section III-C of this Notice.

       7.     Withdrawal of an offer to share in the cost of developing required data.

       8.     Failure of the registrant  to whom you have tendered an offer to share in the cost of
             developing data and provided proof of the registrant's receipt of such offer or failure
             of a registrant on whom you rely for a generic data exemption either to:

             a.     inform EPA of intent to develop and submit the data required by this Notice
                    on a Data Call-In Response Form and a Requirements Status and Registrant's
                    Response Form:

             b.     fulfill the commitment to develop and submit the data as required by this
                    Notice; or
                                            122

-------
              c.     otherwise take appropriate steps to meet the requirements stated in this
                    Notice, unless you commit to submit and do submit the required data in the
                    specified time frame.

       9.      Failure to take any required or appropriate steps, not mentioned above, at any time
              following the issuance of this Notice.

IV-B.  BASIS FOR DETERMINATION THAT SUBMITTED STUDY IS
UNACCEPTABLE

       The Agency may determine that a study (even if submitted within the required time) is
unacceptable and constitutes a basis for issuance of a Notice of Intent to Suspend.  The grounds for
suspension include, but are not limited to, failure to meet any of the following:

       1.  EPA requirements specified in the Data Call-In Notice or other documents incorporated
       by reference (including, as applicable, EPA Pesticide Assessment Guidelines, Data
       Reporting Guidelines, and GeneTox Health Effects Test Guidelines) regarding the design,
       conduct, and reporting of required studies.  Such requirements include, but are not limited
       to, those relating to test material, test procedures, selection of species, number of animals,
       sex and distribution of animals, dose and effect levels to be tested or attained, duration of
       test, and, as applicable, Good Laboratory Practices.

       2.  EPA requirements regarding the submission of protocols, including the incorporation of
       any changes required by  the Agency following review.

       3.  EPA requirements regarding the reporting of data, including the manner of reporting, the
       completeness of results, and the adequacy of any required supporting (or raw) data,
       including, but not limited to, requirements referenced or included in this Notice or
       contained in PR 86-5.  All studies must be submitted in the form of a final report; a
       preliminary report will not be considered to fulfill the submission requirement.

IV-C EXISTING STOCKS OF SUSPENDED OR CANCELLED PRODUCTS

       EPA has statutory authority to permit continued sale, distribution and use of existing stocks
of a pesticide product which has been suspended or cancelled if doing so would be consistent with
the purposes of the Act.

       The Agency has determined that such disposition by registrants of existing stocks for a
suspended registration when a section 3(c)(2)(B) data request is outstanding would generally not be
consistent with the Act's purposes.  Accordingly, the Agency anticipates granting  registrants
permission to sell, distribute, or  use existing stocks of suspended product(s) only in exceptional
circumstances.  If you believe such disposition of existing stocks of your product(s) which may be
suspended for failure to comply  with this Notice should be permitted, you have the burden of
clearly demonstrating to EPA that granting such permission would be consistent with the Act. You
must also  explain why an "existing stocks" provision is necessary, including a statement of the
quantity of existing stocks and your estimate  of the time required for their sale, distribution, and

                                            123

-------
use.  Unless you meet this burden the Agency will not consider any request pertaining to the
continued sale, distribution, or use of your existing stocks after suspension.

       If you request a voluntary cancellation of your product(s) as a response to this Notice and
your product is in full compliance with all Agency requirements, you will have, under most
circumstances, one year from the date your 90 day response to this Notice is due, to sell, distribute,
or use existing stocks. Normally, the Agency will allow persons other than the registrant such as
independent distributors, retailers and end users to sell, distribute or use such existing  stocks until
the stocks are exhausted.  Any sale, distribution or use of stocks of voluntarily cancelled products
containing an active ingredient for which the Agency has particular risk concerns will  be
determined on case-by-case basis.

       Requests for voluntary cancellation received after the 90 day response period required by
this Notice will not result in the Agency granting any additional time to sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks beyond a year from the date the 90 day response was due unless you demonstrate to
the Agency that you are in full compliance with all Agency requirements, including the
requirements of this Notice.  For example, if you decide to voluntarily cancel your registration six
months before a 3 year study is scheduled to be submitted, all progress reports and other
information necessary to establish that you have been conducting the study in an acceptable and
good faith manner must have been submitted to the Agency, before EPA will consider granting an
existing stocks provision.

SECTION V. REGISTRANTS' OBLIGATION TO REPORT POSSIBLE
UNREASONABLE ADVERSE EFFECTS

       Registrants are reminded that FIFRA section 6(a)(2) states that if at any time after a
pesticide is registered a registrant has additional factual information regarding unreasonable
adverse effects on the environment by the pesticide, the registrant shall submit the information to
the Agency. Registrants must notify the Agency of any factual information they have, from
whatever source, including but not limited to interim or preliminary results of studies,  regarding
unreasonable adverse effects on man or the environment.  This requirement continues as long as the
products are registered by the Agency.

SECTION VI. INQUIRIES AND RESPONSES TO THIS NOTICE

      INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE REQUIREMENTS STATUS AND
         REGISTRANT'S RESPONSE FORM FOR PRODUCT SPECIFIC DATA

Item 1-3      Completed by EPA.  Note the unique identifier number assigned by EPA in
             Item 3  This number must be used in the transmittal document for any data
             submissions in response to this Data Call-In Notice.

Item 4.       The guideline reference numbers of studies required to support the product's
             continued registration are identified. These guidelines, in addition to the
             requirements specified in the Notice, govern the conduct of the required studies.
             Note that series 61 and 62 in product chemistry are now listed under 40 CFR
             158.155 through 158.180, Subpart C.

Item 5.       The study title associated with the guideline reference number is identified.

Item 6.       The use pattern(s) of the pesticide associated with the product specific
             requirements is (are) identified. For most product specific data requirements, all
             use patterns are covered by the data requirements. In the case of efficacy data,  the
             required studies only pertain to products which have the use sites and/or pests
             indicated.

Item 7.       The substance to be tested is identified by EPA. For product specific data, the
             product as formulated for sale and distribution is the test substance, except in rare
             cases.

Item 8.       The due date for submission of each study is identified.  It is normally based on 8
             months after issuance of the Reregistration Eligibility Document unless EPA
             determines that a longer time period is necessary.

Item 9.       Enter only one of the following response codes for each  data  requirement to
             show how you intend to comply with the data requirements listed in this
             table. Fuller descriptions of each option are contained in the Data Call-In Notice.

      1.     I will generate and submit data by the specified due date (Developing Data). By
             indicating that I have chosen this option, I certify that I will comply with all the
             requirements pertaining to the conditions for submittal of this study as outlined in
             the Data Call-In Notice. By the specified due date, I will also submit: (1) a

     EPA'S BATCHING OF NAB AM PRODUCTS FOR MEETING
     ACUTE TOXICITY DATA REQUIREMENTS FOR REREGISTRATION

       In an effort to reduce the time, resources and number of animals needed to fulfill the
acute toxicity data requirements for reregi strati on of products containing the active ingredient
Nabam, the Agency has batched products which can be considered similar for purposes of acute
toxicity. Factors considered in the sorting process include each product's active and inert
ingredients (identity, percent composition and biological activity), type of formulation (e.g.,
emulsifiable concentrate, aerosol, wettable powder, granular, etc.), and labeling (e.g., signal
word, use classification, precautionary labeling, etc.). Note that the Agency is not describing
batched products as "substantially similar" since some products within a batch may not be
considered chemically similar or have identical use patterns.

       Using available information, batching has been accomplished by the process described in
the preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the batching process, the Agency reserves the right to
require, at any time, acute toxicity data for an individual product should the need arise.

       Registrants of products within a batch may choose to cooperatively generate, submit or
cite a single battery  of six acute toxicological studies to represent all the products within that
batch.  It is the registrants'  option to participate in the process with all other registrants, only
some of the other registrants, or only their own products within a batch,  or to generate all the
required acute toxicological studies for each of their own products. If a registrant chooses to
generate the data for a batch, he/she must use one of the products within the batch  as the test
material. If a registrant chooses to rely upon previously  submitted acute toxicity data, he/she
may do so provided that the data base is complete and valid by today's standards (see acceptance
criteria attached), the formulation tested is considered by EPA to be similar for acute toxicity,
and the  formulation has  not been significantly altered since submission and acceptance of the
acute toxicity data.  Regardless of whether new data is generated or existing data is referenced,
registrants must clearly identify the test material by EPA Registration Number. If more than
one confidential statement of formula (CSF) exists for a product, the registrant must indicate the
formulation actually tested by identifying the corresponding CSF.

       In deciding how to  meet the product specific data requirements, registrants  must follow
the directions given in the Data Call-In Notice and its attachments appended to the RED. The
DCI Notice contains two response forms which are to be completed and submitted to the Agency
within 90 days of receipt.  The first form, "Data Call-In Response," asks whether the registrant
will meet the data requirements for each product. The second form, "Requirements Status and
Registrant's Response," lists the product specific data required for each product, including the
standard six acute toxicity  tests. A registrant who wishes to participate in a batch must
decidewhether he/she will  provide the data or depend on  someone else to do so. If a registrant
supplies the data to support a batch of products, he/she must select one of the following options:
Developing Data (Option 1), Submitting an Existing  Study (Option 4), Upgrading  an Existing
Study (Option 5) or Citing an Existing Study (Option 6).  If a registrant depends on another's
data, he/she must choose among:  Cost Sharing (Option 2), Offers to Cost Share (Option 3) or
Citing  an Existing Study (Option 6). If a registrant does not want  to participate in  a batch, the

                                           133

-------
choices are Options 1, 4, 5 or 6. However, a registrant should know that choosing not to
participate in a batch does not preclude other registrants in the batch from citing his/her studies
and offering to cost share (Option 3) those studies.

       One product in this group of chemicals, 31910-7, has only one active ingredient, Nabam.
This product was used to provide the data used in the Acute Toxicity section of the Science
Assessment: III(B)(l)(a). As can also be seen from this section, the acute toxicity data is
incomplete, missing a valid inhalation toxicity study.  To complete re-registration of this product
the missing data  is required.

       The remainder of products in the category have two actives, Nabam and sodium
dimethyldithiocarbamate, or Dibam, in  about equal amounts.

       The table below shows five products which were batched together.

   BATCH NO.     EPA REG. NO.      % of Nabam   % of Dibam  Formulation
   Type    1        9386-7              15.0          16.0          Liquid
                   9386-11             15.0          15.0          Liquid
                   31910-2             15.0          15.0          Liquid
                   31910-12            18.0          18.0          Liquid
                   56473-3             15.0          15.0          Liquid

       The table below shows products which were not batched because of significant
differences in active concentrations and inert ingredients.

   EPA REG. NO.    % of Nabam    % of Dibam   Formulation Type
   9386-23                4.5            4.5        Liquid
   31910-11               4.5            4.5        Liquid
   31910-16             12.5             12.5        Liquid
   31910-18             12.5             12.5        Liquid
   31910-20            40              40         Liquid

       In the table above, the product with the greatest percentage of Nabam and Dibam is
31910-20. Because EPA does not wish for excess duplicative tests to be performed, the
following testing scheme is suggested:

       Do complete acute toxicity testing on 31910-20. At this point it may be possible
       to bridge to Batch 1 and/or 9386-23. If bridging is not possible, a complete test
       battery on one product from Batch 1 will be necessary, and with this, it may be
       possibe to bridge this to  9386-23.

       At this point acute oral toxicity tests will need to be performed on 31910-11 and 31910-
18 with the possibility of bridging to 31910-16.
