Availability of Meeting Materials: The agenda, the draft Council report, and other meeting materials will be available on the Council Web site at https:// yosemite.epa.gov/sab/sabproduct.nsf/ fedrgstr_activites/BC%20Report%20to %20Congress?OpenDocument in advance of the meeting. Procedures for Providing Public Input: Public comment for consideration by EPA’s Federal advisory committees and panels has a different purpose from public comment provided to EPA program offices. Therefore, the process for submitting comments to a Federal advisory committee is different from the process used to submit comments to an EPA program office. Federal advisory committees and panels, including scientific advisory committees, provide independent advice to EPA. Members of the public can submit comments for a Federal advisory committee to consider as it develops advice for EPA. Input from the public to the Council will have the most impact if it provides specific scientific or technical information or analysis for Council panels to consider or if it relates to the clarity or accuracy of the technical information. Members of the public wishing to provide comment should contact the Designated Federal Officer for the relevant advisory committee directly. Oral Statements: In general, individuals or groups requesting an oral presentation at this public meeting will be limited to three minutes per speaker. Interested parties should contact Ms. Stephanie Sanzone, DFO, in writing (preferably via e-mail) at the contact information noted above by June 20, 2011, to be placed on the list of public speakers for the meeting. Written Statements: Written statements should be received in the SAB Staff Office by June 20, 2011, so that the information can be made available to the Panel for their consideration. Written statements should be supplied to the DFO in electronic format via email (acceptable file formats: Adobe Acrobat PDF, WordPerfect, MS Word, MS PowerPoint, or Rich Text files in IBM–PC/Windows 98/2000/XP format). It is the SAB Staff Office general policy to post written comments on the Web page for the advisory meeting or teleconference. Submitters are requested to provide an unsigned version of each document because the SAB Staff Office does not publish documents with signatures on its Web sites. Members of the public should be aware that their personal contact information, if VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:18 May 10, 2011 Jkt 223001 included in any written comments, may be posted to the SAB Web site. Copyrighted material will not be posted without explicit permission of the copyright holder. Accessibility: For information on access or services for individuals with disabilities, please contact Ms. Stephanie Sanzone at the phone number or e-mail address noted above, preferably at least ten days prior to the meeting, to give EPA as much time as possible to process your request.

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 1, 2010 Federal Register notice announcing the Agency’s receipt of the requests for voluntary amendments to delete uses of products listed in Table 1 of Unit II. mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES IV. Termination Order Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA hereby approves the requested amendments to terminate uses of ziram, diquat dibromide, and chloropicrin registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the product registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit II are amended to terminate the affected uses. The effective date of the terminations that are the subject of this notice is May 11, 2011. 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 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:18 May 10, 2011 Jkt 223001 in the Federal Register. Thereafter, following the public comment period, the EPA Administrator may approve such a request. The notice of receipt for this action was published for comment on December 1, 2010 (75 FR 74714) (FRL–8854–3). The comment period closed on January 3, 2011. 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 action. The existing stocks provision for the products subject to this order is as follows. The registrants of the chloropicrin products listed in Table 1 of Unit II were permitted to sell and distribute products under the previously approved labeling until December 1, 2010, or a revised date if product labels with the 2010 changes (i.e., Phase I) had not been accepted in all states. The labels were not accepted in all states until after December 1, 2010 and so registrants were permitted by EPA to sell and distribute products under previously approved labeling until December 31, 2010. After December 31, 2010, these registrants are prohibited from selling or distributing the products under previously approved labels that include the deleted uses identified in Table 1 of Unit II, except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 or for proper disposal. For the ziram and diquat dibromide products listed in Table 1 of Unit II, PO 00000 Frm 00019 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 once EPA has approved product labels reflecting the requested amendments to delete uses, registrants will be permitted to sell or distribute products under the previously approved labeling for a period of 12 months after the date of Federal Register publication of the order terminating certain uses, unless other restrictions have been imposed. Thereafter, registrants will be prohibited from selling or distributing the products whose labels include the deleted uses identified in Table 1 of Unit II, except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 or for proper disposal. Persons other than the registrant may sell, distribute, or use existing stocks of products whose labels include the deleted uses until supplies are exhausted, provided that such sale, distribution, or use is consistent with the terms of the previously approved labeling on, or that accompanied, the deleted uses.

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 1, 2010 Federal Register notice announcing 
the Agency's receipt of the requests for voluntary amendments to delete 
uses of products listed in Table 1 of Unit II.

IV. Termination Order

    Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA hereby approves the requested 
amendments to terminate uses of ziram, diquat dibromide, and 
chloropicrin registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit II. 
Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the product registrations 
identified in Table 1 of Unit II are amended to terminate the affected 
uses. The effective date of the terminations that are the subject of 
this notice is May 11, 2011. 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 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 EPA Administrator may approve 
such a request. The notice of receipt for this action was published for 
comment on December 1, 2010 (75 FR 74714) (FRL-8854-3). The comment 
period closed on January 3, 2011.

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 
action. The existing stocks provision for the products subject to this 
order is as follows.
    The registrants of the chloropicrin products listed in Table 1 of 
Unit II were permitted to sell and distribute products under the 
previously approved labeling until December 1, 2010, or a revised date 
if product labels with the 2010 changes (i.e., Phase I) had not been 
accepted in all states. The labels were not accepted in all states 
until after December 1, 2010 and so registrants were permitted by EPA 
to sell and distribute products under previously approved labeling 
until December 31, 2010. After December 31, 2010, these registrants are 
prohibited from selling or distributing the products under previously 
approved labels that include the deleted uses identified in Table 1 of 
Unit II, except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 or for 
proper disposal.
    For the ziram and diquat dibromide products listed in Table 1 of 
Unit II, once EPA has approved product labels reflecting the requested 
amendments to delete uses, registrants will be permitted to sell or 
distribute products under the previously approved labeling for a period 
of 12 months after the date of Federal Register publication of the 
order terminating certain uses, unless other restrictions have been 
imposed. Thereafter, registrants will be prohibited from selling or 
distributing the products whose labels include the deleted uses 
identified in Table 1 of Unit II, except for export consistent with 
FIFRA section 17 or for proper disposal.
    Persons other than the registrant may sell, distribute, or use 
existing stocks of products whose labels include the deleted uses until 
supplies are exhausted, provided that such sale, distribution, or use 
is consistent with the terms of the previously approved labeling on, or 
that accompanied, the deleted uses.
