    In addition to the registrations listed in Table 1, the MCPA Task 
Force will no longer support continued registration of MCPA acid, DMA 
salt or 2EHE ester as selective herbicides on rice and grain sorghum.
    Users of these products who desire continued use on crops or sites 
being deleted should contact the applicable registrant before March 31, 
2006, to discuss withdrawal of the application for amendment. This 30-
day period will also permit interested members of the public to 
intercede with registrants prior to the Agency's approval of the 
deletion.
    Table 2 of this unit includes the names and addresses of record for 
all registrants of the products listed in Table 1 of this unit, in 
sequence by EPA company number.

III. 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 amended to delete one or more uses. The Act further provides that, 
before acting on the request, EPA must publish a notice of receipt of 
any such request in the Federal Register. Thereafter, the Administrator 
may approve such a request.

IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of Request

    Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for use deletion must 
submit the withdrawal in writing to John Jamula using the instructions 
in Unit I.C. The Agency will consider written withdrawal requests 
postmarked no later than March 31, 2006.

V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks

    The Agency has authorized the registrants to sell or distribute 
product under the previously approved labeling for a period of 18 
months after approval of the revision, unless other restrictions have 
been imposed, as in special review actions.
