This notice announces EPA's order for the amendments to terminate certain uses, voluntarily requested by the registrants and accepted by the Agency, of certain pesticide products, pursuant to section 6(f)(1) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended. This cancellation order follows an October 8, 2008, Federal Register Notice of Receipt of Requests from registrants to voluntarily amend their registrations of certain pesticide products (73 FR 58958; FRL-8385-2). In the October 8, 2008, Notice, EPA indicated that it would issue an order implementing the cancellation and amendments to terminate certain uses, unless the Agency received substantive comments within the 30 day comment period that would merit its further review of these requests, or unless the registrants withdrew their requests within this period. The Agency did not receive any comments on the notice except for comments pertaining to aldicarb. Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this notice a cancellation order granting the requested amendments to terminate certain pesticide product uses except for the uses of aldicarb on coffee, pecans, and tobacco. The product cancellation order for the chloroneb product, Demosan 65W (EPA Reg. No. 073782-00002), which was included in the October 8, 2008 notice will be included in a separate Federal Register notice. Any distribution, sale, or use of the products subject to this cancellation order is permitted only in accordance with the terms of this order, including any existing stocks provisions.

We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Lockheed Model 382, 382B, 382E, 382F, and 382G series airplanes. This AD requires an inspection to identify discrepant barrel nuts in the upper wing joint, engine truss, and rear beam pylon support; and replacement of any discrepant barrel nut with a new barrel nut, if necessary. This AD results from a report of severe cracking of multiple barrel nuts in the wing station (WS) 220 upper wing joint found during scheduled maintenance. We are issuing this AD to prevent cracking of the barrel nuts in the upper wing joint, engine truss, and rear beam pylon support, which could result in reduced structural integrity of the affected part and consequent detachment of the wing or engine from the airplane.

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Hartzell Propeller Inc. steel hub turbine propellers, with any counterweight slug attachment bolts, part number (P/N) B-3386-14H, LFC manufacturing lot 224, installed. This AD requires identifying and removing all counterweight slug attachment bolts, P/N B-3386-14H, LFC manufacturing lot 224, from service and installing serviceable bolts. This AD results from two reports of failure of the bolts that attach the propeller blade counterweight slug, and separation of the counterweight slug which led to propeller vibration and damage to the propeller spinner. We are issuing this AD to prevent separation of the propeller blade counterweight slug, which could lead to injury and damage to the airplane.

We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for the products listed above.
