days. During this comment period, interested persons may identify any 
additional information they believe the Agency should consider in the 
course of the registration review.
    (c) Submission of data and other information during the comment 
period. The Agency may identify, either in the notice published under 
paragraph (b) of this section, or at any other time, data or information 
that it does not have but which may be useful, if available, for 
consideration in the registration review. Any person may submit data or 
information in response to such identification. In order to be 
considered during a pesticide's registration review, the submitted data 
or information must meet the requirements listed below.
    (1) In order to ensure that the Agency will consider data or 
information in the conduct of a registration review, interested persons 
must submit the data or information during the comment period 
established in the notice described in paragraph (b) of this section. 
The Agency may, at its discretion, consider data or information 
submitted at a later date.
    (2) The data or information must be presented in a legible and 
useable form. For example, an English translation must accompany any 
material that is not in English and a written transcript must accompany 
any information submitted as an audiographic or videographic record. 
Written material may be submitted in paper or electronic form.
    (3) Submitters must clearly identify the source of any submitted 
data or information.
    (4) Submitters may request the Agency to reconsider data or 
information that the Agency rejected in a previous review. However, 
submitters must explain why they believe the Agency should reconsider 
the data or information in the pesticide's registration review.
