active ingredient not included in any previously registered products 
pursuant to the provisions of section 3(c)(5) of the Federal

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: By mail: Phillip O. Hutton, Product 
Manager (PM) 18, Registration Division (7505C), Office of Pesticide 
Programs, 401 M St., SW., Washington, DC 20460. Office location and 
telephone number: Rm. 213, CM #2, Environmental Protection Agency, 1921 
Jefferson Davis Hwy, Arlington, VA 22202, (703-305-7690).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA issued a notice, published in the 
Federal Register of April 18, 1990 (55 FR 14469), which announced that 
Consep Membranes, Inc., (now known as Consep Inc.) 213 Southwest 
Columbia, Bend, OR 97708, had submitted applications to register the 
pesticide products Checkmate CM Technical Pheromone and Checkmate CM 
(EPA File Symbols 56336-U and 56336-L), containing the active 
ingredient (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-ol at 92 percent respectively, an 
active ingredient not included in any previously registered products.
    EPA also received an application from Bedoukian Research Inc., 21 
Finance Drive, Danbury, CN 06810-4192, to register the pesticide 
product Bedoukian CM Technical Pheromone (File Symbol 52991-E) an 
insecticide, containing the active ingredient (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-
ol at 96.32 percent. However, since the notice of receipt of 
application was not published in the Federal Register for this product, 
interested parties may submit written comments within 30 days from the 
date of publication of this notice for this product. 
    On February 24, 1994, EPA approved three new products (one end-use 
and two technicals) as follows:
    1. Checkmate CM (EPA Registration Number 56336-5) for control of 
codling moths on apples, nectarines, peaches, pears, plums, prunes, 
quince, and walnuts.
    2. Checkmate CM Technical Pheromone (EPA Registration Number 56336-
4) for use in formulating end-use products to control codling moths.
    3. Bedoukian CM Technical Pheromone (EPA Registration Number 52991-
2) for formulation use only.
    The Agency has considered all required data on risks associated 
with the proposed use of (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-ol, and information on 
social, economic, and environmental benefits to be derived from use. 
Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of the chemical and 
its pattern of use, application methods and rates, and level and extent 
of potential exposure. Based on these reviews, the Agency was able to 
make basic health safety determinations which show that use of (E,E)-
8,10-dodecadien-1-ol when used in accordance with widespread and 
commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable 
adverse effects to the environment.
    More detailed information on these registrations is contained in a 
Chemical Fact Sheet on (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-ol.
    A copy of this fact sheet, which provides a summary description of 
the chemical, use patterns and formulations, science findings, and the 
Agency's regulatory position and rationale, may be obtained from the 
National Technical Information Service (NTIS), 5285 Port Royal Road, 
Springfield, VA 22161.
    In accordance with section 3(c)(2) of FIFRA, a copy of the approved 
label and the list of data references used to support registration are 
available for public inspection in the office of the Product Manager. 
The data and other scientific information used to support registration, 
except for material specifically protected by section 10 of FIFRA, are 
available for public inspection in the Public Response and Program 
Resources Branch, Field Operations Division (7506C), Office of 
Pesticide Programs, Environmental Protection Agency, Rm. 1132, CM #2, 
Arlington, VA 22202 (703-305-5805). Requests for data must be made in
