FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Christopher Green, Information SUMMARY: D. Registrations Listed in Table 3 of Unit II The effective date of cancellation of these products is September 28, 2011. EPA will not allow the continued sale and distribution of existing stocks of these products after the effective date of this cancellation for several reasons. First, there are currently no tolerances in effect for any of the food or feed crops associated with the domestic use of these products, and there have been none since the 2009 tolerance revocations took effect on December 31, 2009 (May 15, 2009, 74 FR 23046; FRL– 8413–3). In addition, the Agency believes that little, if any existing stock remains in the hands of retailers, based on the sole registrant’s repeated representation that no carbofuran products have been released for shipment since January 2010, and that they have offered to buy back unused carbofuran products. Consequently, sale of existing stocks of carbofuran is prohibited as of September 28, 2011. Users may only use those carbofuran products labeled for non-food use (ornamentals, spinach grown for seed, and pine seedlings) on those specific crops and in accordance with all geographical restrictions. Any food or feed crops with carbofuran residues after this date will be considered adulterated and subject to seizure. AGENCY: Notice.
