[EPA-HQ-OPP-2010-0014; FRL-8885-6]
Product Cancellation Order for Certain Pesticide Registrations
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA's order for the cancellations,
voluntarily requested by the registrants and accepted by the Agency, of
the products listed in Table 1 of Unit II., pursuant to section 6(f)(1)
of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as
amended. This cancellation order follows a January 19, 2011 Federal
Register Notice of Receipt of Requests from the registrants listed in
Table 2 of Unit II. to voluntarily cancel these product registrations.
In the January 19, 2011 notice, EPA indicated that it would issue an
order implementing the cancellations, unless the Agency received
substantive comments within the 180 day comment period that would merit
its further review of these requests, or unless the registrants
withdrew their requests. One comment was received during the 180-day
comment period, but did not merit
[[Page 54231]]
further review of the requests to voluntarily cancel certain pesticide
registrations. Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this notice a
cancellation order granting the requested cancellations. Any
distribution, sale, or use of the products subject to this cancellation
order is permitted only in accordance with the terms of this order,
including any existing stocks provisions.
DATES: The cancellations are effective August 31, 2011.

III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period provided, EPA received one comment
in response to the January 19, 2011 Federal Register notice announcing
the Agency's receipt of the requests for voluntary cancellations of
products listed in Table 1 of Unit II regarding the export of cancelled
pesticide products. This comment was not relevant to the request to
voluntarily cancel certain pesticide registrations. For more
information regarding EPA's export policies for cancelled pesticides,
see FIFRA section 17.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA hereby approves the requested
cancellations of the registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit II.
Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the product registrations
identified in Table 1 of Unit II are cancelled. The effective date of
the cancellations that are the subject of this notice is August 31,
2011. Any distribution, sale, or use of existing stocks of the products
identified in Table 1 of Unit II. in a manner inconsistent with any of
the provisions for disposition of existing stocks set forth in Unit VI.
will be a violation of FIFRA.
V. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?
Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a pesticide
product may at any time request that any of its pesticide registrations
be cancelled 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. Thereafter,
following the public comment period, the EPA Administrator may approve
such a request. The notice of receipt for this action was published for
comment in the Federal Register issue of January 19, 2011 (76 FR 3138)
(FRL-8857-1). The comment period closed on July 14, 2011.
VI. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks
Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products
which are currently in the United States and which were packaged,
labeled, and released for shipment prior to the effective date of the
cancellation action. The existing stocks provisions for the products
subject to this order are as follows.
The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks
of products listed in Table 1 of Unit II. until August 30, 2012, which
is 1 year after the publication of the Cancellation Order in the
Federal Register. Thereafter, the registrants are prohibited from
selling or distributing products listed in Table 1, except for export
in accordance with FIFRA section 17, or proper disposal. Persons other
than the registrants may sell, distribute, or use existing stocks of
products listed in Table 1 of Unit II. until existing stocks are
exhausted, provided that such sale, distribution, or use is consistent
with the terms of the previously approved labeling on, or that
accompanied, the cancelled products.
Certain requests to voluntarily cancel pesticide products announced
in the January 19, 2011 6(f) Notice, (FRL-8857-1) were omitted from
this cancellation order because those products were cancelled in a
previously published document. The effective date of cancellation of
those products was July 15, 2011 as stated in the cancellation order
titled: ``Cancellation of Pesticides for Non-Payment of Year 2011
Registration Maintenance Fees.'' The cancellation order was published
July 27, 2011 (76 FR 44907) (FRL-8879-8) and can be found in docket
EPA-HQ-OPP-2011-0558. See EPA docket EPA-HQ-OPP-2011-0558; FRL-8879-8
for a list of those registration numbers.
