| Abstract | This Position Document 1 (PD 1) is the official announcement that EPA is initiating a special review of all pesticide products containing the active ingredient Linuron (3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-methoxy-1-methylurea). EPA has determined that Linuron is oncogenic in rats and mice and meets or exceeds the risk criterion as described in 40 CFR 162.11, the regulations governing the Special Review (RPAR) process. Only after carefully considering the risks and benefits of Captafol and determining that the pesticide will cause unreasonable adverse effects on man or on the environment, will EPA issue a notice of intent to cancel. |
