V. What is the Agency’s Authority for
Taking this Action?
FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS
COMMISSION
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.
Typically, the Agency will permit a
registrant to sell and distribute existing
stocks for one year after the date the
cancellation request was received. Such
policy is in accordance with the
Agency’s statement of policy as set forth
in the Federal Register of June 26, 1991
(56 FR 29362) (FRL–3846–4). However,
in this case, because Bayer
Environmental Science has provided
information to the Agency that it is not
likely that any remaining existing stocks
are out in the channels of trade, the
Agency does not believe that there is a
need to permit the registrant to sell or
distribute existing stocks for a period of
one year. In addition, the Agency does
not believe that there is a need for
persons other than the registrant to
continue to sell and/or use existing
stocks of canceled products. The
Agency believes that end users have had
sufficient time to exhaust those existing
stocks. Therefore, the last date for end
use of the product is effective on the
date of publication of this cancellation
order in the Federal Register. Pursuant
to FIFRA section 6(f), the Agency hereby
approves the requested cancellation of
Bayleton 50 Turf and Ornamental
Fungicide in WSP and Bayleton 50 WP
Fungicide (EPA Registration # 4321294).

license a description of the low pass
filter or equivalent device with the
manufacturer’s rating or a report of

notify the Commission upon completion
of the transmitter modifications and
shall certify compliance with all
applicable transmission system
requirements.
47 CFR Section 74.796(b)(6) provides
that operators who modify their existing

of the modifications, installation and
test instructions, and other material
provided by the manufacturer, the
results of performance-tests and
measurements on the modified
transmitter, and copies of related
correspondence with the Commission.
In addition, digital LPTV and TV
translator operators who custom modify
their transmitter must maintain with the
station’s records for a period of not less
than two years, and will make available
to the Commission upon request, a
description of the modifications
performed and performance tests, the
results of performance-tests and
measurements on the modified
transmitter, and copies of related
correspondence with the Commission.
In situations where protection of an
existing analog LPTV or translator
station without a frequency offset
prevents acceptance of a proposed new
or modified LPTV, TV translator, or
Class A station, the Commission
requires that the existing non-offset
station install at its expense offset
equipment and notify the Commission
that it has done so, or, alternatively,
negotiate an interference agreement
with the new station and notify the
Commission of that agreement.
The Commission requires that
wireless licensees operating on channels
52–59 and 60–69 notify (by certified
mail, return receipt requested) a digital
LPTV or TV translator licensee
operating on the same channel or first
adjacent channel of its intention to
initiate or change wireless operations
and the likelihood of interference from
the LPTV or translator station within its
licensed geographic service area. This
notification should describe the
facilities, associated service area, and
operation of the wireless licensee with
sufficient detail to permit an evaluation
of the likelihood of interference.
