and pests, Antimicrobials,
Bromonitrostyrene.
V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing
Stocks
Notice of Public Information
Collection(s) Approved by the Office of
Management and Budget
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, 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
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.

III. 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. 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, the Administrator may approve such a request.
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 September 26, 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 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.
