Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to Comments One citizen commented that the Agency should deny the request to voluntarily cancel the diazinon registration. The commenter mistakenly noted that diazinon still has household uses. All retail sales of diazinon products for household use ended on December 31, 2004. The commenter also PO 00000 Frm 00051 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 40875 noted that use of diazinon should be tracked by EPA. Since all remaining diazinon products are classified as restricted use products with only agricultural uses, only certified applicators or those under the supervision of a certified applicator may purchase and use diazinon products. As such, the Agency believes that diazinon use is sufficiently tracked and monitored. For these reasons, the Agency does not believe that the comments submitted during the comment period merit further review or a denial of the request for voluntary cancellation. IV. Cancellation Order Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA hereby approves the requested cancellation of diazinon registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency orders that the diazinon product registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit II. are hereby canceled. 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 considered 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 canceled 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 Administrator may approve such a request. 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 cancellation order issued in this Notice includes the following existing stocks provisions. The registrant will be allowed to sell and distribute the subject products through December 2008. In addition, existing stocks of diazinon products may be sold or used until they are depleted. List of Subjects Environmental protection, Pesticides and pests.

III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to 
Comments

    One citizen commented that the Agency should deny the request to 
voluntarily cancel the diazinon registration. The commenter mistakenly 
noted that diazinon still has household uses. All retail sales of 
diazinon products for household use ended on December 31, 2004. The 
commenter also noted that use of diazinon should be tracked by EPA. 
Since all remaining diazinon products are classified as restricted use 
products with only agricultural uses, only certified applicators or 
those under the supervision of a certified applicator may purchase and 
use diazinon products. As such, the Agency believes that diazinon use 
is sufficiently tracked and monitored. For these reasons, the Agency 
does not believe that the comments submitted during the comment period 
merit further review or a denial of the request for voluntary 
cancellation.

 IV. Cancellation Order

    Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA hereby approves the requested 
cancellation of diazinon registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit 
II. Accordingly, the Agency orders that the diazinon product 
registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit II. are hereby canceled. 
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 considered 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 canceled 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 Administrator may approve such 
a request.

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 cancellation order issued in this Notice 
includes the following existing stocks provisions.
    The registrant will be allowed to sell and distribute the subject 
products through December 2008. In addition, existing stocks of 
diazinon products may be sold or used until they are depleted.
