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 September 19, 2012 Federal Register notice
announcing the Agency's receipt of the requests for voluntary
cancellations of products listed in Table 1a of Unit II. The Agency
received comments relating to alternatives and benefits of aldicarb use
in response to the October 7, 2010 Federal Register notice announcing
the Agency's receipt of the request for voluntary cancellation of the
product listed in Table 1b of Unit II. The Agency does not believe that
the comments submitted during the comment period merit further review
or a denial of the request for voluntary cancellation.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA hereby approves the requested
cancellations of the registrations identified in Tables 1a and 1b of
Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the product
registrations identified in Tables 1a and 1b of Unit II. are canceled.
The effective date of the cancellations that are the subject of this
notice is December 19, 2012. Any distribution, sale, or use of existing
stocks of the products identified in Tables 1a and 1b 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 in the Federal Register on September 19, 2012 (77 FR 58134)
(FRL-9361-1), and October 7, 2010 (75 FR 62129) (FRL-8848-1). The
comment periods closed on October 19, 2012, and November 8, 2010,
respectively.
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. The existing stocks provisions for the products
subject to this order are as follows.
A. For All Products Listed in Table 1a in Unit II
The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks
of products listed in Table 1a of Unit II. until December 19, 2013,
which is 1 year after the publication of the Cancellation Order in the
Federal Register. Thereafter, the registrants are prohibited from
selling or distributing products listed in Table 1a, except for export
in accordance with FIFRA section 17, or proper disposal. Persons other
than the registrants may sell, distribute, or use existing stocks of
products listed in Table 1a of Unit II. until existing stocks are
exhausted, provided that such sale, distribution, or use is consistent
with the terms of the previously approved labeling on, or that
accompanied, the canceled products.
B. For the Product Listed in Table 1b in Unit II
Per a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the Environmental
Protection Agency and Bayer CropScience (Bayer) dated August 16, 2010,
Bayer may only sell existing stocks of the product listed in Table 1b
of Unit II. labeled for use on citrus and potatoes for export
consistent with the requirements of FIFRA section 17 or for purposes of
proper disposal.
Bayer may only sell or distribute Temik 15G end-use products
permitting use on cotton, dry beans, peanut, soybean, sugar beets, and
sweet potatoes until December 31, 2014. After that date, Bayer may only
distribute such products intended for export consistent with the
requirements of FIFRA section 17 or for purposes of proper disposal.
Sale and distribution of Temik 15G labeled for use on cotton, dry
beans, peanut, soybean, sugar beets, and sweet potatoes by any other
party is permitted until December 31, 2016, and thereafter only for
purposes of proper disposal or export consistent with the requirements
of FIFRA section 17.
Existing stocks of the Temik 15G labeled for use on cotton, dry
beans, peanut, soybean, sugar beets, and sweet potatoes may be used
until August 31, 2018, provided that such use is in all respects
consistent with the previously approved label, and labeling
accompanying the product.
