Title: Standardized Permit for RCRA
Hazardous Waste Management Facilities
(Renewal).
ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1935.03,
OMB Control No. 2050–0182.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to
expire on August 31, 2008. Under OMB
regulations, the Agency may continue to
conduct or sponsor the collection of
information while this submission is
pending at OMB. An Agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of
information, unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
The OMB control numbers for EPA’s
regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after
appearing in the Federal Register when
approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9,
are displayed either by publication in
the Federal Register or by other
appropriate means, such as on the
related collection instrument or form, if
applicable. The display of OMB control
numbers in certain EPA regulations is
consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
Abstract: Under the authority of
sections 3004, 3005, 3008 and 3010 of
the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended, the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
is finalizing revisions to the RCRA
hazardous waste permitting program to
allow a ‘‘standardized permit.’’ The
standardized permit is available to
facilities that generate hazardous waste
and routinely manage the waste on-site
in non-thermal units such as tanks,
containers, and containment buildings.
This ICR presents a comprehensive
description of the information collection
requirements for owners and operators
submitting applications for a
standardized permit or a standardized
permit modification.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 82 hours per
response. Burden means the total time,
effort, or financial resources expended
by persons to generate, maintain, retain,
or disclose or provide information to or
for a Federal agency. This includes the
time needed to review instructions;
develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purposes
of collecting, validating, and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; adjust the
existing ways to comply with any
previously applicable instructions and
requirements which have subsequently
changed; train personnel to be able to
respond to a collection of information;
search data sources; complete and
review the collection of information;

and transmit or otherwise disclose the
information.
Respondents/Affected Entities:
Business or other for-profit.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
866.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
15,045.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$1,203,688, includes $592,029 for labor
and $611,659 annualized capital or
O&M costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an
increase of 608 hours in the total
estimated burden currently identified in
the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR
Burdens. This slight increase is due to
an increase in the annual number of
responses from 175 to 184.
Dated: August 14, 2008.

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
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 requests by various
registrants to voluntarily amend their
registrations to terminate uses of certain
products containing carbaryl, or to
eliminate certain application methods
for carbaryl products. The requests
would terminate carbaryl use in or on
wheat, millet, cotton, and fresh/
succulent shelled beans and peas (crop
subgroup 6B); preplant drench or dip
treatments of seedlings or seed pieces;
use on poultry or in or on poultry
premises/dwellings; all use on pets
(dogs, cats and other pets) except for
flea collars, use on pet premises, use in
or on pet sleeping quarters; and all
indoor applications. These requests
would also terminate the use of dust
formulations in or on agricultural crops,
application of granular formulations to
leafy vegetables (except Brassica), ultralow volume (ULV) applications for adult
mosquito control, and all applications
by backpack sprayers. Last, the requests

20AUN1
dwashington3 on PRODPC61 with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 162 / Wednesday, August 20, 2008 / Notices
would terminate broadcast application
of liquid formulations of carbaryl to
residential lawns. The requests would
not terminate the last carbaryl products
registered for use in the United States.
EPA intends to grant these requests at
the close of the comment period for this
announcement unless the Agency
receives substantive comments within
the comment period that would merit its
further review of the requests, or unless
the registrants withdraw their requests
within this period. Upon acceptance of
these requests, any sale, distribution, or
use of products listed in this notice will
be permitted only if such sale,
distribution, or use is consistent with
the terms as described in the final order.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before September 19, 2008.

II. Background on the Receipt of
Requests to Cancel and to Amend
Registrations to Terminate Uses
This notice announces receipt by EPA
of requests from several registrants,
listed in Table 2 of Unit III. to amend
several carbaryl product registrations to
terminate certain uses and eliminate
certain application methods. Carbaryl is
a broad-spectrum insecticide used on a
variety of food and feed crops,
ornamentals, turf, pasture, and
E:\FR\FM\20AUN1.SGM
20AUN1
49186
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 162 / Wednesday, August 20, 2008 / Notices
rangeland. In letters dated from July 22
to August 4, 2008, registrants of carbaryl
products requested EPA to amend the
product registrations identified in Table
1 of this notice to terminate certain uses
and eliminate certain application
methods. Specifically, these registrants
are no longer supporting carbaryl use in
or on wheat, millet, cotton, and fresh/
succulent shelled beans and peas (crop
subgroup 6B); preplant drench or dip
treatments of seedlings or seed pieces;
use on poultry or in or on poultry
premises/dwellings; all use on pets
(dogs, cats and other pets) except for
flea collars, use on pet premises, use in
or on pet sleeping quarters; and all
indoor applications. Registrants are no
longer supporting the use of dust
formulations in or on agricultural crops,
application of granular formulations to
leafy vegetables (except Brassica), ultralow volume (ULV) applications for adult
mosquito control, and all applications
by backpack sprayers. Last, Bayer
CropScience is requesting termination
of the broadcast application of liquid
carbaryl products to residential lawns.
(This use has previously been removed
from all technical and manufacturing
use product labels.) The complete lists
of affected registrations and registrants
are identified in Tables 1 and 2,
respectively. EPA’s action on these
requests will not terminate the last
carbaryl products registered in the
United States, or the last pesticide
products registered in the United States
for these uses.
III. What Action is the Agency Taking?
This notice announces receipt by EPA
of requests from various registrants to
amend certain carbaryl product
registrations to terminate various uses.
The affected products, uses, and the
registrants making the requests are
identified in Tables 1 and 2 of this unit.
Under section 6(f)(1)(A) of FIFRA,
registrants may request, at any time, that
their pesticide registrations be canceled
or amended to terminate one or more
pesticide uses. Section 6(f)(1)(B) of
FIFRA requires that before acting on a
request for voluntary cancellation, EPA
must provide a 30–day public comment
period on the request for voluntary
cancellation or use termination. In
addition, section 6(f)(1)(C) of FIFRA
requires that EPA provide a 180–day
comment period on a request for
voluntary cancellation or termination of
any minor agricultural use before
granting the request, unless:
1. The registrants request a waiver of
the comment period, or
2. The Administrator determines that
continued use of the pesticide would
pose an unreasonable adverse effect on
the environment.
All of the carbaryl registrants listed in
Table 2 have requested that EPA waive
the 180–day comment period. EPA will
provide a 30–day comment period on
the proposed requests.
Unless a request is withdrawn by the
registrant within 30 days of publication
of this notice, or if the Agency
determines that there are substantive
comments that warrant further review of
this request, an order will be issued
canceling or amending the affected
registrations.

IV. 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.
V. Procedures for Withdrawal of
Request and Considerations for
Reregistration of Carbaryl
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 September 19, 2008. 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 products have
been subject to a previous cancellation
action, the effective date of cancellation
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:36 Aug 19, 2008
Jkt 214001
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.
In any order issued in response to
these requests for cancellation of
product registrations and for
amendments to terminate uses, the
Agency proposes to include the
following provisions for the treatment of
any existing stocks of the products
indentified or referenced in Tables 1
and 2 in Unit III. Provided that these
stocks bear labels previously approved
by EPA, registrants may sell and
distribute existing stocks of the affected
products for 18 months from the
effective date of the Agency’s
termination order, with the exception of
Scotts Ortho Business Group, who may
sell and distribute existing stocks of
EPA Registration Number 239-2514 in
Table 2 of Unit III. for 24 months from
the effective date of the Agency’s
termination order.
If the request for voluntary
cancellation and/or use termination is
granted as discussed in this unit, the
Agency intends to issue a cancellation
order that will allow persons other than
the registrant to continue to sell and/or
use existing stocks of canceled products
until such stocks are exhausted,
provided that such use is consistent
with the terms of the previously
approved labeling on, or that
accompanied, the canceled product. The
order will specifically prohibit any use
of existing stocks that is not consistent
with such previously approved labeling.
EPA intends to publish the cancellation
order in the Federal Register after the
end of the 30–day comment period for
this Notice.

Carbaryl; Notice of Receipt of Requests to Voluntarily Cancel or
to Terminate Uses of 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 requests by various registrants to voluntarily
amend their registrations to terminate uses of certain products
containing carbaryl, or to eliminate certain application methods for
carbaryl products. The requests would terminate carbaryl use in or on
wheat, millet, cotton, and fresh/succulent shelled beans and peas (crop
subgroup 6B); preplant drench or dip treatments of seedlings or seed
pieces; use on poultry or in or on poultry premises/dwellings; all use
on pets (dogs, cats and other pets) except for flea collars, use on pet
premises, use in or on pet sleeping quarters; and all indoor
applications. These requests would also terminate the use of dust
formulations in or on agricultural crops, application of granular
formulations to leafy vegetables (except Brassica), ultra-low volume
(ULV) applications for adult mosquito control, and all applications by
backpack sprayers. Last, the requests
[[Page 49185]]
would terminate broadcast application of liquid formulations of
carbaryl to residential lawns. The requests would not terminate the
last carbaryl products registered for use in the United States. EPA
intends to grant these requests at the close of the comment period for
this announcement unless the Agency receives substantive comments
within the comment period that would merit its further review of the
requests, or unless the registrants withdraw their requests within this
period. Upon acceptance of these requests, any sale, distribution, or
use of products listed in this notice will be permitted only if such
sale, distribution, or use is consistent with the terms as described in
the final order.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before September 19, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by docket identification
(ID) number EPA-HQ-OPP-2008-0525, by one of the following methods:

provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be
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 regulations.gov website is an ``anonymous access'' system,

mail comment directly to EPA without going through regulations.gov,
your e-mail address will be automatically captured and 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
available at https://www.regulations.gov. 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 Bldg.), 2777 S. Crystal Dr., Arlington, VA. The hours of
operation of this Docket Facility are from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this Action Apply to Me?
This action is directed to the public in general, and may be of
interest to a wide range of stakeholders including environmental, human
health, and agricultural advocates; the chemical industry; pesticide
users; and members of the public interested in the sale, distribution,
or use of pesticides. Since others also may be interested, 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
applicability of this action to a particular entity, 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.
II. Background on the Receipt of Requests to Cancel and to Amend
Registrations to Terminate Uses
This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from several
registrants, listed in Table 2 of Unit III. to amend several carbaryl
product registrations to terminate certain uses and eliminate certain
application methods. Carbaryl is a broad-spectrum insecticide used on a
variety of food and feed crops, ornamentals, turf, pasture, and
[[Page 49186]]
rangeland. In letters dated from July 22 to August 4, 2008, registrants
of carbaryl products requested EPA to amend the product registrations
identified in Table 1 of this notice to terminate certain uses and
eliminate certain application methods. Specifically, these registrants
are no longer supporting carbaryl use in or on wheat, millet, cotton,
and fresh/succulent shelled beans and peas (crop subgroup 6B); preplant
drench or dip treatments of seedlings or seed pieces; use on poultry or
in or on poultry premises/dwellings; all use on pets (dogs, cats and
other pets) except for flea collars, use on pet premises, use in or on
pet sleeping quarters; and all indoor applications. Registrants are no
longer supporting the use of dust formulations in or on agricultural
crops, application of granular formulations to leafy vegetables (except
Brassica), ultra-low volume (ULV) applications for adult mosquito
control, and all applications by backpack sprayers. Last, Bayer
CropScience is requesting termination of the broadcast application of
liquid carbaryl products to residential lawns. (This use has previously
been removed from all technical and manufacturing use product labels.)
The complete lists of affected registrations and registrants are
identified in Tables 1 and 2, respectively. EPA's action on these
requests will not terminate the last carbaryl products registered in
the United States, or the last pesticide products registered in the
United States for these uses.
III. What Action is the Agency Taking?
This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from various
registrants to amend certain carbaryl product registrations to
terminate various uses. The affected products, uses, and the
registrants making the requests are identified in Tables 1 and 2 of
this unit.
Under section 6(f)(1)(A) of FIFRA, registrants may request, at any
time, that their pesticide registrations be canceled or amended to
terminate one or more pesticide uses. Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA
requires that before acting on a request for voluntary cancellation,
EPA must provide a 30-day public comment period on the request for
voluntary cancellation or use termination. In addition, section
6(f)(1)(C) of FIFRA requires that EPA provide a 180-day comment period
on a request for voluntary cancellation or termination of any minor
agricultural use before granting the request, unless:
1. The registrants request a waiver of the comment period, or
2. The Administrator determines that continued use of the pesticide
would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment.
All of the carbaryl registrants listed in Table 2 have requested
that EPA waive the 180-day comment period. EPA will provide a 30-day
comment period on the proposed requests.
Unless a request is withdrawn by the registrant within 30 days of
publication of this notice, or if the Agency determines that there are
substantive comments that warrant further review of this request, an
order will be issued canceling or amending the affected registrations.

IV. 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.
V. Procedures for Withdrawal of Request and Considerations for
Reregistration of Carbaryl
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 September 19, 2008. 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 products have been subject to a previous cancellation action, the
effective date of cancellation and all other provisions of any earlier
cancellation action are controlling.
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.
In any order issued in response to these requests for cancellation
of product registrations and for amendments to terminate uses, the
Agency proposes to include the following provisions for the treatment
of any existing stocks of the products indentified or referenced in
Tables 1 and 2 in Unit III. Provided that these stocks bear labels
previously approved by EPA, registrants may sell and distribute
existing stocks of the affected products for 18 months from the
effective date of the Agency's termination order, with the exception of
Scotts Ortho Business Group, who may sell and distribute existing
stocks of EPA Registration Number 239-2514 in Table 2 of Unit III. for
24 months from the effective date of the Agency's termination order.
If the request for voluntary cancellation and/or use termination is
granted as discussed in this unit, the Agency intends to issue a
cancellation order that will allow persons other than the registrant to
continue to sell and/or use existing stocks of canceled products until
such stocks are exhausted, provided that such use is consistent with
the terms of the previously approved labeling on, or that accompanied,
the canceled product. The order will specifically prohibit any use of
existing stocks that is not consistent with such previously approved
labeling. EPA intends to publish the cancellation order in the Federal
Register after the end of the 30-day comment period for this Notice.
