SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public in general and may be of
interest to a wide range of stakeholders including environmental, human
health, and agricultural advocates; the chemical industry; pesticide
users; and members of the public interested in the sale, distribution,
or use of pesticides. Since others also may be interested, the Agency
has not attempted to describe all the specific entities that may be
affected by this action.
B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
2. Tips for preparing your comments. When preparing and submitting
your comments, see the commenting tips at http://www.epa.gov/dockets/comments.html.
II. What action is the agency taking?
This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from registrants
to cancel certain pesticide products and amend product registrations to
terminate certain uses registered under FIFRA section 3 (7 U.S.C. 136a)
or 24(c) (7 U.S.C. 136v(c)). The affected products and the registrants
making the requests are identified in Tables 1-3 of this unit.
Unless a request is withdrawn by the registrant or if the Agency
determines that there are substantive comments that warrant further
review of this request, EPA intends to issue an order in the Federal
Register canceling and amending the affected registrations.

III. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?
Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)) provides that a
registrant of a pesticide product may at any time request that any of
its pesticide registrations be canceled or amended to terminate one or
more uses. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request,
EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such request in the Federal
Register.
Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)(B)) requires that
before acting on a request for voluntary cancellation, EPA must provide
a 30-day public comment period on the request for voluntary
cancellation or use
[[Page 25263]]
termination. In addition, FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(C) (7 U.S.C.
136d(f)(1)(C)) requires that EPA provide a 180-day comment period on a
request for voluntary cancellation or termination of any minor
agricultural use before granting the request, unless:
1. The registrants request a waiver of the comment period, or
2. The EPA Administrator determines that continued use of the
pesticide would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment.
The registrants listed in Table 3 of Unit II have requested that
EPA waive the 180-day comment period. Accordingly, EPA will provide a
30-day comment period on the proposed requests.
IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of Requests
Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for product
cancellation or use termination should submit the withdrawal in writing
to the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If the
products have been subject to a previous cancellation or termination
action, the effective date of cancellation or termination and all other
provisions of any earlier cancellation or termination action are
controlling.
V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks
Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products
that are currently in the United States and that were packaged,
labeled, and released for shipment prior to the effective date of the
action. If the requests for voluntary cancellation and amendments to
terminate uses are granted, the Agency intends to publish the
cancellation order in the Federal Register.
In any order issued in response to these requests for cancellation
of product registrations and for amendments to terminate uses, EPA
proposes to include the following provisions for the treatment of any
existing stocks of the products listed in Tables 1, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D and
1E, of Unit II.
A. For Products: 40810-18, 40810-19, 40810-23, 40810-24, 40810-25,
40810-26, 40810-27 and 55852-4
The registrants have requested to the Agency via letter to sell
existing stocks for an 18-month period, for products 40810-18, 40810-
19, 40810-23, 40810-24, 40810-25, 40810-26, 40810-27 and 55852-4.
For all other voluntary product cancellations, identified in Tables
1, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D and 1E of Unit II, registrants will be permitted to
sell and distribute existing stocks of voluntarily canceled products
for 1 year after the effective date of the cancellation, which will be
the date of publication of the cancellation order in the Federal
Register.
Thereafter, registrants will be prohibited from selling or
distributing the products identified in Tables 1, 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D and 1E
of Unit II, except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7
U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal.
Once EPA has approved product labels reflecting the requested
amendments to terminate uses, identified in Table 2 of Unit II,
registrants will be permitted to sell or distribute products under the
previously approved labeling for a period of 18 months after the date
of Federal Register publication of the cancellation order, unless other
restrictions have been imposed. Thereafter, registrants will be
prohibited from selling or distributing the products whose labels
include the terminated uses identified in Table 2 of Unit II, except
for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 or for proper disposal.
Persons other than the registrant may sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks of canceled products and products whose labels include
the terminated uses until supplies are exhausted, provided that such
sale, distribution, or use is consistent with the terms of the
previously approved labeling on, or that accompanied, the canceled
products and terminated uses.
