Comments Memorandum in the docket
and electronic EDOCKET. If any
comment significantly affects the
document, EPA also will publish an
amendment to the RED in the Federal
Register. In the absence of substantive
comments requiring changes, the dicofol
RED will be implemented as it is now
presented.
B. What is the Agency’s Authority for
Taking this Action?
Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA, as amended,
directs that, after submission of all data
concerning a pesticide active ingredient,
‘‘the Administrator shall determine
whether pesticides containing such
active ingredient are eligible for
reregistration,’’ before calling in product
specific data on individual end-use
products and either reregistering
products or taking other ‘‘appropriate
regulatory action.’’
Section 408(q) of the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21
U.S.C. 346a(q), requires EPA to review
tolerances and exemptions for pesticide
residues in effect as of August 2, 1996,
to determine whether the tolerance or
exemption meets the requirements of
section 408(b)(2) or (c)(2) of FFDCA.
This review is to be completed by
August 3, 2006.

terminate uses of thiram in or on apples.
These are not the last thiram products
registered for use in the United States.
In the April 27, 2005 Notice, EPA
indicated that it would issue an order
implementing the amendment to
terminate uses, unless the Agency
received substantive comments within
the 30–day comment period that would
merit its further review of this request,
or unless the registrant withdrew their
request within this period. The Agency
did not receive any comments on the
Notice. Further, the registrant did not
withdraw their request. Accordingly,
EPA hereby issues in this notice a
cancellation order granting the
requested amendment to terminate uses.
Any distribution, sale, or use of the
thiram 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, 2005.
