Comments of Teresa Homan with Attachments
Teresa Homan Watertown, SD 57201 I am a landowner in Deuel County, South Dakota. Our land boarders the Deuel Harvest Wind Project in Deuel county, Docket # EL 18-053. There are 112 towers cited in the project, with 9 towers within a mile of our property. We have spent over three decades developing this property to enhance wildlife and for the enjoyment of our family. Can you imagine how we felt when we found we have a population of eastern bluebirds? We have yellow warblers, which by the way feed on the web worms that form in our trees. We have orioles, cedar waxwings, brown thrashers, rose breasted grosbeaks, gold finches, purple finches, robins, blue jays, nuthatches, eastern kingbirds, bitterns, dark eyed juncos, red winged blackbirds, morning doves, owls, cow birds, northern mocking birds, grey cat birds, wood thrushes, tufted titmouse, king fishers, indigo buntings, scarlet tanagers, bobolinks, meadowlarks, many woodpeckers, turkeys, turkey vultures, even humming birds and bald eagles. There are more, just to numerous to list. Many of these birds we have seen for the first time in our lives on this property in the past 1 O years. Not only are these birds beautiful and fun to watch, they have their purpose in the ecosystem. We also see northern long eared bats, that are on the endangered list in South Dakota. These birds are making a come back after the use of insecticides that nearly wiped out many. In the 1940's the insecticide DDT was introduced for public use, it is now banned from sale. In 1976 the herbicide Roundup was introduced to the public. -

Comparison of Acute Noaels and Benchmark Doses for Female Brain Cholinesterase Inhibition
Supplemental Material for: February 5-8, 2002 SAP 25 January 2002 Comparison of Acute NOAELs and Benchmark Doses for Female Brain Cholinesterase Inhibition In cumulative risk assessment, it is important to characterize both the time frame for exposure (e.g., What is the exposure duration?) and for the toxic effect (e.g., What are the time to peak effects and the time to recovery?). In the Preliminary Cumulative Risk Assessment of the Organophoshate Pesticides (OPs) relative potency factors (RPFs) for 29 chemicals and points of departure (PODs) and the index chemical were determined based on whole brain cholinesterase (ChE) data from toxicity studies of 21 days and longer. The Office of Pesticide Programs has argued that the use of steady state data for relative potency determination generates relative potency factors (RPFs) that are reproducible and reflect less variability than RPFs derived from single-dose or short-term studies where the extent of inhibition changes rapidly immediately following dosing. OPP has posed a question to the FIFRA SAP for the February 5-8, 2002 review concerning how best to evaluate risk, taking into account the temporal characteristics of the hazard endpoint (i.e., cholinesterase inhibition) and the temporal characteristics of the exposure patterns for the food, drinking water, and residential/nonoccupational pathways. In order to facilitate the panel discussion, a table listing the available single dose toxicity studies performed with OPs has been made. Most of the studies are acute neurotoxicity (ACN) studies (OPPT Guideline 870.6200, OPP Guideline 81-8) administered by gavage. Acute lethality studies were not included. Dose levels, no- observed-adverse-effect levels (NOAELs), and no-observed-adverse-effect levels (LOAELs) for female brain ChE are also listed in the table. -
Appendix H EPA Hazardous Waste Law
Appendix H EPA Hazardous Waste Law This Appendix is intended to give you background information on hazardous waste laws and how they apply to you. For most U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requirements that apply to the University, the Safety Department maintains compliance through internal inspections, record keeping and proper disposal. In Wisconsin, the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has adopted the EPA regulations, consequently EPA and DNR regulations are nearly identical. EPA defines This Appendix only deals with "hazardous waste" as defined by the EPA. hazardous waste as Legally, EPA defines hazardous waste as certain hazardous chemical waste. This hazardous chemical Appendix does not address other types of regulated laboratory wastes, such as waste; radioactive, infectious, biological, radioactive or sharps. Chapter 8 descibes disposal procedures infectious and biohazardous waste for animals. Chapter 9 describes disposal procedures for sharps and other waste that are regulated by can puncture tissue. Chapter 11 discusses Radiation and the Radiation Safety for other agencies. Radiation Workers provides guidelines for the disposal of radioactive waste. Procedures for medical waste are written by the UW Hospital Safety Officer. The Office of Biological Safety can provide guidance for the disposal of infectious and biological waste. EPA regulations focus on industrial waste streams. As a result, many laboratory chemical wastes are not regulated by EPA as hazardous chemical waste. However, many unregulated chemical wastes do merit special handling and disposal If a waste can be procedures. Thus, Chapter 7 and Appendix A of this Guide recommend disposal defined as: procedures for many unregulated wastes as if they were EPA hazardous waste. -
Ust Be Registered by Reregistration EPA, Based on Scientific Studies Showing That They Can Be Used Without Posing Unreasonable Risks to People Or the Environment
United States Prevention, Pesticides EPA-738-F00-009 Environmental Protection And Toxic Substances September 2000 Agency (7508C) R.E.D. FACTS Ethyl Parathion Pesticide All pesticides sold or distributed in the United States must be registered by Reregistration EPA, based on scientific studies showing that they can be used without posing unreasonable risks to people or the environment. Because of advances in scientific knowledge, the law requires that pesticides which were first registered before November 1, 1984, be reregistered to ensure that they meet today's more stringent standards. In evaluating pesticides for reregistration, EPA obtains and reviews a complete set of studies from pesticide producers, describing the human health and environmental effects of each pesticide. To implement provisions of the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) of 1996, EPA considers the special sensitivity of infants and children to pesticides, as well as aggregate exposure of the public to pesticide residues from all sources, and the cumulative effects of pesticides and other compounds with common mechanisms of toxicity. The Agency develops any mitigation measures or regulatory controls needed to effectively reduce each pesticide's risks. EPA then reregisters pesticides that meet the safety standard of the FQPA and can be used without posing unreasonable risks to human health or the environment. When a pesticide is eligible for reregistration, EPA explains the basis for its decision in a Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED) document. This fact sheet serves as and explains the Agency’s Reregistration Eligibility Decision for case 0155, ethyl parathion. Use Profile Ethyl parathion is a restricted use organophosphate insecticide/miticide used to control a broad spectrum of pests on alfalfa, barley, canola, corn, cotton, sorghum, soybeans, sunflowers, and wheat. -

Preliminary Tests with Systemic Insecticides 1 George E. Gould, Purdue University A systemic insecticide is one that is absorbed by the plant and translocated in the sap so that parts of the plant other than those treated become toxic to sucking insects. This type of insecticidal action was demonstrated for selenium compounds by Gnadinger (1) and others as early as 1933. These compounds were never used extensively as quantities of the material dangerous to humans accumulated in sprayed plants or in plants grown in treated soils. Recently German chemists have developed a number of phosphorus compounds that show systemic action. In our tests three of these compounds have been tried in com- parison with three related phosphorus compounds for which no systemic action has been claimed. The development of these systemic and other phosphorus compounds have been based on the discoveries of the German chemist Schrader in 1942 (German patent 720,577). After World War II this information became available to the Allied Governments and soon numerous com- pounds were released for experimental purposes. At present three of the non-systemic compounds, parathion, hexaethyl tetraphosphate and tetraethyl pyrophosphate, are available commercially. The first of the systemics tested was C-1014, a formulation similar to Pestox 3 (octa- methylpyrophosphoramide) which has been used in England. The other two in our tests were Systox with its active ingredient belonging to a trialkyl thiophosphate group and Potasan, diethoxy thiophosphoric acid ester of 7-hydroxy-4-methyl coumarin. Two additional phosphorus com- pounds used in some tests included Metacide, a mixture containing 6.2% parathion and 24.5% of 0, O-dimethyl O-p-nitrophenyl thiophos- phate, and EPN 300, ethyl p-nitrophenyl thionobenzine phosphonate. -
