AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s
order for the cancellation, voluntarily
requested by the registrant and accepted
by the Agency, of products containing
the pesticide sulfluramid, pursuant to
section 6(f)(1) of the Federal Insecticide,
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
(FIFRA), as amended. This cancellation
order follows a December 19, 2007
Federal Register Notice of Receipt of
Request from the sulfluramid registrant
to voluntarily cancel the last remaning
sulfluramid manufacturing-use product
(MUP) registration. In the December 19,
2007 notice, EPA indicated that it
would issue an order implementing the
cancellation, unless the Agency
received substantive comments within
the 30–day comment period that would
merit its further review of these
requests, 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 cancellation.
This cancellation order does not cancel
the remaining end-use sulfluramid
products currently registered for use in
the United States. Any distribution,
sale, or use of the sulfluramid 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
May 16, 2008.

III. Summary of Public Comments
Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period
provided, EPA received no comments in
response to the December 19, 2007
Federal Register notice announcing the
Agency’s receipt of the request for
voluntary cancellation of sulfluramid.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA
hereby approves the requested
cancellation of sulfluramid registration
identified in Table 1 of Unit II.
Accordingly, the Agency orders that the
sulfluramid product registration
identified in Table 1 of Unit II. is 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

Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 96 / Friday, May 16, 2008 / Notices
which were packaged, labeled, and
released for shipment prior to the

The cancellation order issued in this
notice includes the following existing
stocks provisions.
This notice announces EPA’s order to
cancel the final sulfluramid MUP
registration, which is identified in Table
1 of this notice. Since DuPont (the only
seller) has no existing stocks, EPA is not
allowing any further sale or distribution
of the MUP. However, this request does
not cancel the remaining end-use
sulfluramid products (the remaining
registered use is for termite control)
currently registered in the U.S. End-use
registrants may continue to reformulate
any existing stocks of the MUP currently
in their possession until December 31,
2012.

(ASPE), Office of Disease Prevention
and Health Promotion (ODPHP) is
seeking OMB approval to conduct a
short survey using a self-administered
questionnaire of state, local, and tribal
health organizations. The survey will be
administered through mail and
respondents will have the option to
complete the survey as a web-based
electronic survey. Healthy People 2010
(HP2010) is an important Federal
initiative that establishes national
health promotion and disease
prevention goals. HP2010 represents the
third of a series of publications by HHS
that specifies ten-year health objectives
for the nation. Its overarching goals are
to increase the quality and years of
healthy life and eliminate health
disparities.
HP2010 consists of 28 primary focus
areas and 467 measurable health
objectives designed to identify the most
significant preventable threats to health
and to establish public health priorities.
The central theme of HP2010 focuses on
the role of communities and community
partnerships in promoting healthy
living in the U.S. HP2010 is a powerful
force in the effort to promote health and
prevent disease in the U.S. The agenda
reflects extensive consultation with over
350 national organizations, 250 state
agencies, health experts, and the public.
HHS is eager to document the
utilization of HP2010, and to seek input
from key users on how the next iteration
of the initiative, Healthy People 2020,
could be improved to encourage greater
involvement. This study will identify
examples of effective strategies and
approaches to using HP2010, and,
where possible, the short-term results of
those efforts.

III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period provided, EPA received no comments
in response to the December 19, 2007 Federal Register notice announcing
the Agency's receipt of the request for voluntary cancellation of
sulfluramid.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA hereby approves the requested
cancellation of sulfluramid registration identified in Table 1 of Unit
II. Accordingly, the Agency orders that the sulfluramid product
registration identified in Table 1 of Unit II. is 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

not cancel the remaining end-use sulfluramid products (the remaining
registered use is for termite control) currently registered in the U.S.
End-use registrants may continue to reformulate any existing stocks of
