Agency, 401 M Street, SW, Washington, DC 20460, (202) 564-5008; Fax:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 7 of the Federal Insecticide, 
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) requires that pesticides subject 
to the Act be produced only in establishments registered with EPA, and 
requires that registered establishments file annual reports with the 
Agency. The Agency has established regulations at 40 CFR part 167 to 
implement the requirements of section 7 of FIFRA. Section 167.90 of 
those regulations directs that applications for registration of 
establishments and annual reports be sent to the appropriate EPA 
regional office (if a registered establishment is located in the United 
States) or to a specified address at EPA headquarters (if a registered 
establishment is located in any other country). The Agency is, by this 
document, amending 40 CFR 167.90(b) by revising the address to be used 
by foreign establishments when submitting applications or annual 
reports to the Agency. This technical amendment to the regulations will 
become effective upon publication of this document in the Federal 
Register.
