1Per curiam
Petitioners apply to this court for attorneys’ fees and costs in the amount of $65,-182.55 pursuant to the Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA), 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d)(1)(A) (1982 & Supp. Ill 1985). These fees and costs were incurred in bringing petitions for review of decisions by the Environmental Protection Agency fixing tolerances for the amount of the pesticide ethylene dibromide (EDB) found in imported mangoes. We conclude that petitioners are not entitled to attorneys’ fees and costs under the EAJA.
The background of the petitions for review has been described in detail in two prior opinions…
