SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA issued a notice, published in the 
Federal Register of July 1, 1992 (57 FR 29311), which announced that 
Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd., 5-33 Kitahama, 4-Chome, Chou-Ku Osaka, 
Japan had submitted an application to register the product ETOC 
Technical Grade (10308-RE), containing the active ingredient RS-2-
methyl-4-oxo-3-(2-propynyl) cyclopent-2-enyl-(1RS)-cis, trans-
chrysanthemate at 93 percent. The McLaughlin Gormley King Co., 8810 
10th Avenue North, Minneapolis, MN 55427-4372, also submitted an 
application for the product Evercide Residual Ant and Roach Spray 2543 
(1021-RANR), containing the ingredients RS-2-methyl-4-oxo-3-(2-
propynyl) cyclopent-2-enyl-(1RS)-cis, trans-chrysanthemate, (S)-
cyano(3-phenoxyphenyl)methyl-(S)-4-chloro-alpha-(1-
methylethyl)benzeneacetate, and N-octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide at 
0.03, 0.05, and 0.25 percent respectively, active ingredients not 
included in any previously registered products. 
    The applications were approved on December 23, 1994, as ETOC 
Technical Grade for formulating use only (EPA Reg. No. 10308-12) and 
Evercide Residual Ant and Roach Spray 2543 for use on nonfood areas of 
kennels, commercial bulidings, hotels, restaurants, and food processing 
facilities (EPA Reg. No. 1021-1601). 
    The Agency has considered all required data on risks associated 
with the proposed use of RS-2-methyl-4-oxo-3-(2-propynyl) cyclopent-2-
enyl-(1RS)-cis, trans-chrysanthemate, (S)-cyano(3-phenoxyphenyl)methyl-
(S)-4-chloro-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetate, and N-octyl 
bicycloheptene dicarboximide, 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 RS-2-methyl-4-oxo-
3-(2-propynyl) cyclopent-2-enyl-(1RS)-cis, trans-chrysanthemate, (S)-
cyano(3-phenoxyphenyl)methyl-(S)-4-chloro-alpha-(1-
methylethyl)benzeneacetate, and N-octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide 
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 an 
EPA Pesticide Fact Sheet on RS-2-methyl-4-oxo-3-(2-propynyl) cyclopent-
2-enyl-(1RS)-cis, trans-chrysanthemate, (S)-cyano(3-
phenoxyphenyl)methyl-(S)-4-chloro-alpha-(1-methylethyl)benzeneacetate, 
and N-octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide.
    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.
