MCPB Risk Assessment, Notice of Availability

This notice announces the availability of EPA's risk assessments and related documents for the phenoxy herbicide, MCPB (4- (2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxy) butyric acid), and opens a public comment period on these documents. The public is encouraged to suggest ideas or proposals to address the risks identified. EPA is developing a Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) for MCPB through a modified, 4-Phase public participation process that the Agency uses to involve the public in developing pesticide reregistration and tolerance reassessment decisions. Through these programs, EPA is ensuring that all pesticides meet current health and safety standards. This is Phase 3 of the 4- Phase process.
