Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 151 / Wednesday, August 6, 2014 / Notices
Disease (CVD) mortality and proposing
an approach to quantify adult health
benefits from a reduction in lead (Pb)
exposure for CVD mortality, entitled
‘‘Developing a Concentration-Response
Function for Pb Exposure and
Cardiovascular Disease-Related
Mortality’’ (Ref. 5). The panel peer
review meetings are expected to occur
later in 2014, and the public will have
an opportunity to review and comment
on the materials given to the external
peer reviewers.
III. Request for Comment
EPA is requesting public review and
comment on all aspects of the Approach
and its supplemental files, appendices,
attendant models, peer review charge
(Ref. 6), and particularly related to the
following:
• The utility of the Approach for
estimating exposures through
summarizing building use configuration
types and human-activity patterns to
incorporate variability across the wide
variety of P&CBs.
• The utility of the updated Leggett
Model (original model described in
Leggett 1993 (Ref. 7); updated model
described in the appendices to the
Approach (Ref. 4)) to estimate blood
lead levels for both children and adults,
and specifically the use of the various
outputs derived from the Leggett Model
(concurrent blood lead, lifetime blood
lead, and bone lead) in concentrationresponse curves for children and adults.
• The utility of concentrationresponse functions for health endpoints
in both children and adults for assessing
risk to human health inside P&CBs as a
result of P&CB renovations.

The allethrin series of pyrethroid
insecticides includes the Product
Chemical (PC) codes for: Bioallethrin
(004003), esbiol (004004), esbiothrin
(004007, formerly 004003/004004), and
pynamin forte (004005). The technical
registrants for the allethrins, Sumitomo
Chemical Company Limited (Sumitomo)
and Valent BioSciences Corporation
(Valent), cancelled all of the allethrins
technical products effective September
30, 2015, and cancelled their allethrins
end-use product registrations effective
December 31, 2016. Because the
allethrins technical products have been
cancelled, several other registrants for
allethrins end-use products listed in this
notice have requested cancellation with
dates consistent with those specified for
the Valent and Sumitomo allethrins
end-use products. The cancellation of
the end-use products listed in Table 2

III. Summary of Public Comments
Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period,
EPA received three comments. One of
the comments received was submitted
by the registrant Nippon Soda Co., Ltd.
c/o Nisso America, Inc. (Nisso) that
explained the importance for
maintaining the existing tepraloxydim
tolerances for importation purposes
through 2018. This request does not
pertain to the voluntary cancellation of
the registrant’s products (008033–00012
and 008033–00013), which have never
been marketed in the United States.
The two remaining comments
received pertained to pesticide concerns

Jkt 232001
in general. These two comments did not
contain information about any specific
product cancellation request. For these
reasons, the Agency does not believe
that the three comments submitted
during the comment period, which
referenced importation tolerances and
general pesticide concerns, merit further
review or a denial of the requests for
voluntary cancellation.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7
U.S.C. 136d(f)), EPA hereby approves
the requested cancellations of the
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
canceled. The effective date of the
cancellations that are the subject of this
notice is August 6, 2014. 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. are a violation of
FIFRA.
V. What is the Agency’s authority for
taking this action?
Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C.
136d(f)(1)) 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 of May 20, 2014 (79
FR 28920) (FRL–9909–40). The
comment period closed on June 19,
2014.
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.

B. Product 000264–00806
In a letter to the Agency, the registrant
had requested to voluntarily cancel all
of its current thiacloprid product and
domestic use registrations. In doing so,
the registrant requested an 18- month
time period to sell and distribute
existing stocks of this product. The
registrant may continue to sell and
distribute existing stocks of product
listed in Table 1 of Unit II. until
Monday, February 8, 2016, which is 1
year and 6 months after the publication
of this cancellation order in the Federal
Register. Thereafter, the registrant is

III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period, EPA received three comments. One
of the comments received was submitted by the registrant Nippon Soda
Co., Ltd. c/o Nisso America, Inc. (Nisso) that explained the importance
for maintaining the existing tepraloxydim tolerances for importation
purposes through 2018. This request does not pertain to the voluntary
cancellation of the registrant's products (008033-00012 and 008033-
00013), which have never been marketed in the United States.
The two remaining comments received pertained to pesticide concerns
in general. These two comments did not contain information about any
specific product cancellation request. For these reasons, the Agency
does not believe that the three comments submitted during the comment
period, which referenced importation tolerances and general pesticide
concerns, merit further review or a denial of the requests for
voluntary cancellation.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)), EPA hereby
approves the requested cancellations of the 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 canceled.
The effective date of the cancellations that are the subject of this
notice is August 6, 2014. 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. are a violation of FIFRA.
V. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?
Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)) 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 of May
20, 2014 (79 FR 28920) (FRL-9909-40). The comment period closed on June
19, 2014.
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. All Products in Table 1 of Unit II. except 000264-00806, 008033-
00012, 008033-00013, 054382-00003, 067071-00053, 071368-00062, 087290-
00014, 087290-00021)
The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks
of products listed in Table 1 of Unit II. until August 6, 2015, which
is 1 year after the publication of this cancellation order in the
Federal Register. Thereafter, the registrants are prohibited from
selling or distributing products listed in Table 1 of Unit II., except
for export in accordance with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), or
proper disposal. Persons other than the registrants may sell,
distribute, or use existing stocks of products listed in Table 1 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. Product 000264-00806
In a letter to the Agency, the registrant had requested to
voluntarily cancel all of its current thiacloprid product and domestic
use registrations. In doing so, the registrant requested an 18- month
time period to sell and distribute existing stocks of this product. The
registrant may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks of
product listed in Table 1 of Unit II. until Monday, February 8, 2016,
which is 1 year and 6 months after the publication of this cancellation
order in the Federal Register. Thereafter, the registrant is prohibited
from selling or distributing product listed in Table 1 of Unit II.,
except for export in accordance with FIFRA section 17, or proper
disposal. Persons other than the registrant may sell, distribute, or
use existing stocks of product listed in Table 1 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 product.
C. Product 071368-00062
The registrant may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks
of product containing imazamethabenz listed in Table 1 of Unit II.
until December 31, 2015. Thereafter, registrants, and persons other
than the registrants, are prohibited from selling or distributing
product containing imazamethabenz listed in Table 1 of Unit II., except
for export in accordance with FIFRA section 17, or proper disposal.
Existing stocks of product containing imazamethabenz already in the
hands of
[[Page 45802]]
users can be used legally until such 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 product.
D. Products 008033-00012, 008033-00013, 054382-00003, 067071-00053,
087290-00014 and 087290-00021
Registrants have indicated to the Agency via letter and/or written
response that due to the last manufacturing date, distribution date, or
the absence of marketing in the United States no existing stocks
provisions are necessary for them to sell and distribute their
product(s).
Registrants are prohibited from selling or distributing products
listed in Table 1 of Unit II., 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 1 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.
E. End-Use Products Listed in Table 2 of Unit II.
The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks
of products listed in Table 2 of Unit II. until December 31, 2016.
Thereafter, as of January 1, 2017, registrants are prohibited from
selling or distributing products listed in Table 2 of Unit II., except
for export in accordance with FIFRA section 17, or proper disposal.
Persons other than registrants are allowed to sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks of product listed in Table 2 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 product.
