ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY [EPA-HQ-OPP-2006-0351; FRL-8108-9]

Pesticides; Draft Guidance for Pesticide Registrants on Use of

Antimicrobial Pesticide Products in Heating, Ventilation, Air

Conditioning, and Refrigeration Systems

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of availability; Reopening of Comment Period.

----------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Agency is reopening the comment period and seeking

additional public comment on a draft Pesticide Registration Notice

(PR Notice) entitled ``Use of Antimicrobial Pesticide Products in

Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration Systems.''

PR Notices are issued by the Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) to

inform pesticide registrants and other interested persons about

important policies, procedures, and registration related decisions,

and serve to provide guidance to pesticide registrants and OPP

personnel. This particular draft PR Notice would, once final,

provide guidance to the registrants concerning EPA-registered

sanitizer, disinfectant and other antimicrobial products whose

labels bear general directions for use on or incorporation within

hard, non-porous or porous surfaces, but which are not specifically

registered for treatment of Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning

and Refrigeration Systems (HVAC & R).

DATES: Comments must be received on or before February 27, 2007.
