B. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through 
regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the 
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or 
CD ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM as 
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD ROM the 
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as 
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information 
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket. 
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with 
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments, 
remember to:
    i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying 
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
    ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to 
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of 
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
    iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and 
substitute language for your requested changes.
    iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information 
and/or data that you used.
    v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you 
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be 
reproduced.
    vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and 
suggest alternatives.
    vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of 
profanity or personal threats.
    viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period 
deadline identified.

II. Registration Application

    EPA received an application as follows to register a pesticide 
product that proposes new uses for certain of its active ingredients. 
This notice of receipt of this application pursuant to the provisions 
of section 3(c)(4) of FIFRA does not imply a decision by the Agency on 
the application.

A. Product Proposing the New Use/Changed Use Pattern for Certain of the 
Active Ingredients

    File Symbol: 75771-R. Applicant: Ticks or Mosquitoes, LLC, 905 S. 
Kingshighway, Sikeston, MO 63801. Product name: Biter Fighter(\TM\). 
Product type: Biochemical insect attractant. Active ingredients: Sodium 
bicarbonate, urea, and calcium lactate at 63.61%, 11.20% and 25.19%, 
respectively. Proposal classification/Use: None. An attractant used in 
insect traps.

B. Description of the New Use/Changed Use Pattern Represented by the 
Above-mentioned Proposed Product Registration Application

    In the Federal Register of November 1, 2006 (71 FR 64266) (FRL-
8097-1), EPA issued a notice pursuant to section 3(c)(4) of FIFRA, as 
amended, announcing receipt of the above-mentioned application to 
register a pesticide product because it contains a new active 
ingredient not included in any currently registered products. The new 
active ingredient that was the subject of the November 1, 2006 notice 
is calcium lactate. This follow up notice is being issued because the 
same proposed pesticide product (i.e., EPA File Symbol 75771-R) 
contains two other active ingredients, sodium bicarbonate and urea, 
whose inclusion in this proposed insect attractant product represents a 
new use/changed use pattern for both, as well as the first public 
health claim(s) for both. In light of the fact that this was not 
highlighted in the November 1, 2006 notice, issuance of this notice is 
required pursuant to FIFRA section 3(c)(4).
