All behind the scenes indications are that the comment period for the pyrethroids risk assessment will be extended. However, it appears that this cannot be officially approved and completed under the current Executive Order that limits regulatory activity. The governmental web pages (including EPA’s) that were set up to accept comments show the comment period has closed and will not accept any comments. We hope this will change in the near future.

Meanwhile, if you wish to submit a comment this can still be done through the Pyrethroid Working Group’s website at: https://www.votervoice.net/PWG/campaigns/48706/respond

If you prefer to comment directly, we are told you may e-mail your comments to:

Rosaura Conde at conde.rosaura@epa.gov and copy Garlad Walekp at waleko.garland@epa.gov

My recommendation is to comment through the Pyrethroid Working Group webpage or wait until the EPA webpage reopens the comment period.
