A person may submit comments to EPA as provided in ADDRESSES and Unit I. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION above. However, because FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(A) allows a registrant to request cancellation of its pesticide registrations at any time, users or anyone else desiring retention of those pesticides listed in Table 1 may want to contact the applicable registrant in Table 2 directly during this period to request that the registrant retain the pesticide registration or to discuss the possibility of transferring the registration. A user seeking to apply for its own registration of that pesticide may submit comments requesting EPA not to cancel a registration until its ‘‘me-too’’ registration is granted.

What is the Agency’s Authority for Taking this Action? IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of Request Section 6(f)(1)(A) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a pesticide product may at any time request that any of its pesticide registrations be canceled. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request, EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such request in the Federal Register and provide for a 30–day public comment period. In addition, where a pesticide is registered for a minor agricultural use and the Administrator determines that cancellation or termination of that use would adversely affect the availability of the pesticide for use, FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(C) requires EPA to provide a 180– day period before approving or rejecting the section 6(f) request unless: 1. The registrant requests a waiver of the 180–day period, or 2. The Administrator determines that continued use of the pesticide would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment. Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for cancellation must submit such withdrawal in writing to the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, postmarked before October 10, 2007 or before May 14, 2007 for those registrations where the 180–day comment period has been waived. This written withdrawal of the request for cancellation will apply only to the applicable FIFRA section 6(f)(1) request listed in this notice. If the product(s) have been subject to a previous cancellation action, the effective date of cancellation and all other provisions of any earlier cancellation action are controlling. The withdrawal request must also include a commitment to pay any reregistration fees due, and to fulfill any applicable unsatisfied data requirements. VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:52 Apr 12, 2007 Jkt 211001 V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks The effective date of cancellation will be the date of the cancellation order. The orders effecting these requested PO 00000 Frm 00031 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 cancellations will generally permit a registrant to sell or distribute existing stocks for 1 year after the date the cancellation request was received. This policy is in accordance with the Agency’s statement of policy as prescribed in the Federal Register of June 26, 1991 (56 FR 29362) (FRL– 3846–4). Exceptions to this general rule will be made if a product poses a risk concern, or is in noncompliance with reregistration requirements, or is subject to a data call-in. In all cases, productspecific disposition dates will be given in the cancellation orders. Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products which are currently in the United States and which have been packaged, labeled, and released for shipment prior to the effective date of the cancellation action. Unless the provisions of an earlier order apply, existing stocks already in the hands of dealers or users can be distributed, sold, or used legally until they are exhausted, provided that such further sale and use comply with the EPA-approved label and labeling of the affected product. Exception to these general rules will be made in specific E:\FR\FM\13APN1.SGM 13APN1 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 71 / Friday, April 13, 2007 / Notices cases when more stringent restrictions on sale, distribution, or use of the products or their ingredients have already been imposed, as in a Special Review action, or where the Agency has identified significant potential risk concerns associated with a particular chemical.

Notice of Receipt of Requests to Voluntarily Cancel Certain 
Pesticide Registrations

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with section 6(f)(1) of the Federal Insecticide, 
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, EPA is issuing a 
notice of receipt of request by registrants to voluntarily cancel 
certain pesticide registrations and providing a public comment period.

DATES: Unless a request is withdrawn by October 10, 2007 or May 14, 
2007 for registrations for which the registrant requested a waiver of 
the 180-day comment period, orders will be issued canceling these 
registrations. The Agency will consider withdrawal requests postmarked 
no later than October 10, 2007 or May 14, 2007, whichever is 
applicable. Comments must be received on or before October 10, 2007 or 
May 14, 2007, for those registrations where the 180-day comment period 
has been waived.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments and your withdrawal request, identified 
by docket identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-OPP-2007-0005, by one of 
the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://www.regulations.gov. 
Follow the on-line instructions for submitting comments.
     Mail: Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) Regulatory Public 
Docket (7502P), Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania 
Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460-0001. Written withdrawal requests

Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose 
disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you 
consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through regulations.gov or e-
mail. The Federal regulations.gov website is an ``anonymous access''

included as part of the comment that is placed in the docket and made 
available on the Internet. If you submit an electronic comment, EPA 
recommends that you include your name and other contact information in 
the body of your comment and with any disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA 
cannot read your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot 
contact you for clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your 
comment. Electronic files should avoid the use of special characters, 
any form of encryption, and be free of any defects or viruses.
    Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the docket index. 
Although listed in the index, some information is not publicly 
available, e.g., CBI or other information whose disclosure is 
restricted by statute. Certain other material, such as copyrighted 
material, is not placed on the Internet and will be publicly available 
only in hard copy form. Publicly available docket materials are 
available either in the electronic docket at https://
www.regulations.gov, or, if only available in hard copy, at the OPP 
Regulatory Public Docket in Rm. S-4400, One Potomac Yard (South

of this Docket Facility are from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through

I. General Information

A. Does this Action Apply to Me?

    This action is directed to the public in general. Although this 
action may be of particular interest to persons who produce or use 
pesticides, the Agency has not attempted to describe all the specific 
entities that may be affected by this action. If you have any questions 
regarding the information in this notice, consult the person listed 
under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

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 e-mail. 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 submitting comments, 
remember to:
    i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying 
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
    ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to 
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of 
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
    iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and 
substitute language for your requested changes.
    iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information 
and/or data that you used.
    v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you 
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be 
reproduced.
    vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and 
suggest alternatives.
    vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of 
profanity or personal threats.
    viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period 
deadline identified.

    A request to waive the 180-day comment period has been received for 
the following registrations: 432-1288; 769-638; 5481-9; 5481-341; 5481-
342; 5481-343; 5481-345 5481-346; 5481-347. Therefore, the 30-day 
comment period will apply for these registrations.
    Unless a request is withdrawn by the registrant by October 10, 2007 
or by May 14, 2007 for those registrations with a 30-day comment 
period, orders will be issued canceling all of these registrations. A 
person may submit comments to EPA as provided in ADDRESSES and Unit I. 
of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION above. However, because FIFRA section 
6(f)(1)(A) allows a registrant to request cancellation of its pesticide 
registrations at any time, users or anyone else desiring retention of 
those pesticides listed in Table 1 may want to contact the applicable 
registrant in Table 2 directly during this period to request that the 
registrant retain the pesticide registration or to discuss the 
possibility of transferring the registration. A user seeking to apply 
for its own registration of that pesticide may submit comments 
requesting EPA not to cancel a registration until its ``me-too'' 
registration is granted.
    Table 2 of this unit includes the names and ADDRESSES of record for 
all registrants of the products 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)(A) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a 
pesticide product may at any time request that any of its pesticide 
registrations be canceled. FIFRA further provides that, before acting 
on the request, EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such 
request in the Federal Register and provide for a 30-day public comment 
period. In addition, where a pesticide is registered for a minor 
agricultural use and the Administrator determines that cancellation or 
termination of that use would adversely affect the availability of the 
pesticide for use, FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(C) requires EPA to provide a 
180-day period before approving or rejecting the section 6(f) request 
unless:
    1. The registrant requests a waiver of the 180-day period, or
    2. The Administrator determines that continued use of the pesticide 
would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment.

IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of Request

    Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for cancellation must 
submit such withdrawal in writing to the person listed under FOR 
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, postmarked before October 10, 2007 or 
before May 14, 2007 for those registrations where the 180-day comment 
period has been waived. This written withdrawal of the request for 
cancellation will apply only to the applicable FIFRA section 6(f)(1) 
request listed in this notice. If the product(s) have been subject to a 
previous cancellation action, the effective date of cancellation and 
all other provisions of any earlier cancellation action are 
controlling. The withdrawal request must also include a commitment to 
pay any reregistration fees due, and to fulfill any applicable 
unsatisfied data requirements.

V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks

    The effective date of cancellation will be the date of the 
cancellation order. The orders effecting these requested cancellations 
will generally permit a registrant to sell or distribute existing 
stocks for 1 year after the date the cancellation request was received. 
This policy is in accordance with the Agency's statement of policy as 
prescribed in the Federal Register of June 26, 1991 (56 FR 29362) (FRL-
3846-4). Exceptions to this general rule will be made if a product 
poses a risk concern, or is in noncompliance with reregistration 
requirements, or is subject to a data call-in. In all cases, product-
specific disposition dates will be given in the cancellation orders.
    Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products 
which are currently in the United States and which have been packaged, 
labeled, and released for shipment prior to the effective date of the 
cancellation action. Unless the provisions of an earlier order apply, 
existing stocks already in the hands of dealers or users can be 
distributed, sold, or used legally until they are exhausted, provided 
that such further sale and use comply with the EPA-approved label and 
labeling of the affected product. Exception to these general rules will 
be made in specific

cases when more stringent restrictions on sale, distribution, or use of 
the products or their ingredients have already been imposed, as in a 
Special Review action, or where the Agency has identified significant 
potential risk concerns associated with a particular chemical.
