ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-0332; FRL-9343-2]
Rescission of Previously Issued Cancellation Order for Methyl
Parathion Product Registration
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice rescinds a previously issued Cancellation Order,
printed in the Federal Register on December 28, 2011, to the extent it
is applicable to one methyl parathion product. The product in question,
EPA Registration Number 070506-00193, was previously cancelled under a
separate Cancellation Order published in the Federal Register on July
27, 2010. The July 27, 2010 order correctly identifies the effective
date of cancellation for the affected product registration as well as
the correct dates associated with the disposition of existing stocks.
This rescission only applies to the methyl parathion registration. All
other product registrations for all other chemicals that were included
in the December 28, 2011 cancellation order remain in effect and are
not otherwise affected by this action.
DATES: The cancellation of the methyl parathion product at issue is
effective December 31, 2012 as provided by the July 27, 2010
Cancellation Order.

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

users; and members of the public interested in the sale, distribution,

II. What action is the agency taking?
EPA is rescinding a recently issued Cancellation Order, a December
28, 2011 Federal Register Notice (76 FR 81496) to the extent it is
applicable to one methyl parathion product. On December 28, 2011 EPA
issued a batch order cancelling products for failure to pay maintenance
fees. The list of products in Table 2 inadvertently contained the
methyl parathion product, EPA Registration Number 070506-00193,
Penncap-M Microencapsulated Insecticide. However, this methyl parathion
product was previously cancelled under a separate Cancellation Order
printed in the Federal Register of July 27, 2010 (75 FR 43981), in
relation to a Memorandum of Agreement where all methyl parathion
products were voluntarily cancelled by the registrants. The July 27,
2010 order correctly identifies the effective date of cancellation for
the affected product registration as well as the correct dates
associated with the disposition of existing stocks. The cancellation
order for the methyl parathion product, issued in the Federal Register
on December 28, 2011 is rescinded. The rescission only applies to the
methyl parathion registration, EPA Registration Number 070506-00193.
The December 28, 2011 cancellation order remains in full force and
effect with respect to all other product registrations and chemicals
contained in those cancellation orders.
