| 2018-26903 | Proposed Joint Stipulation, Endangered Species Act Claims | Notice | In accordance with the EPA Administrator's October 16, 2017, Directive Promoting Transparency and Public Participation in Consent Decrees and Settlement Agreements, notice is hereby given of a proposed joint stipulation and proposed stipulated notice of dismissal in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California in the case of Ellis, et al., v. Keigwin, et al., No. 3:13-cv-01266. On May 8, 2017, the court issued an order on summary judgment dismissing claims against EPA under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act ("FIFRA"), but finding that EPA failed to perform duties mandated by the Endangered Species Act ("ESA") to consult with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service ("FWS") regarding 59 EPA- approved pesticide products containing either of the insecticidal active ingredients clothianidin or thiamethoxam. The parties are proposing to reach a settlement in the form of a joint stipulation on the appropriate remedy for the court's finding of liability. Among other provisions, the joint stipulation would set a June 30, 2022, deadline for EPA to complete ESA effects determination for EPA's registration reviews of clothianidin and thiamethoxam and, as appropriate, request initiation of any ESA consultations with FWS that EPA may determine to be necessary as a result of those effects determinations. EPA is also taking comment on a proposed stipulated notice of dismissal that would be entered with the court following execution of the joint stipulation. | 2018-12-12 | 2018 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2018/12/12/2018-26903/proposed-joint-stipulation-endangered-species-act-claims | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2018-12-12/pdf/2018-26903.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | In accordance with the EPA Administrator's October 16, 2017, Directive Promoting Transparency and Public Participation in Consent Decrees and Settlement Agreements, notice is hereby given of a proposed joint stipulation and proposed stipulated notice... |
