laws and Section VII of this Proposed
Plan.
J. For planning purposes, first
preference customers may be required to
provide forecasts and other information
required by Western as set forth in the
electric service contract.
K. The general criteria and contract
principles set forth in Sections V.A, C
through I, K, M, and O of this Proposed
Plan will apply to first preference
customers.
VII. Transmission Service
Allottees and customers must secure
all necessary transmission service to
deliver Federal power. Western will
provide transmission service to deliver
the Base Resource over the CVP
transmission system. Western will work
with allottees and customers to secure
bundled or unbundled transmission
services as appropriate beyond its CVP
transmission system in conjunction
with its power sales in a manner
consistent with Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission orders,
legislated mandates, or California
Independent System Operator
agreements. While Western will work
with allottees and customers, it is the
allottees and customers obligations to
secure all necessary transmission
service.
Generally, Western will market
surplus transmission capacity on the
CVP and COTP available under
Western’s Open Access Transmission
Tariff. The legislation authorizing the
PACI provides for the Secretary to
market surplus available transmission
capacity on the PACI at equitable rates
to aid and benefit the CVP. Western will
determine the use of its transmission
resources concurrently with further
development of the products and
services under this Proposed Plan.
Specific terms and conditions for
transmission will be provided for in
future service agreements. Western will
develop transmission rates under a
separate proceeding.

VIII. Changes in the Electric Utility
Industry
Western recognizes that there have
been, and continue to be, significant
changes in the electric utility industry.
In order to address this concern,
Western is proposing, in collaboration
with its customers, to include the ability
to make changes in how the Federal
resource is marketed if there is deemed
a benefit to Western and its customers.
Any changes implemented would be
done through negotiation and revision
to individual customer contracts.

Authorities
Western developed this Proposed
Plan in accordance with its power
marketing authorities pursuant to the
Department of Energy Organization Act
(42 U.S.C. 7101, et seq.); the
Reclamation Act of June 17, 1902 (ch.
1093, 32 Stat. 388), as amended and
supplemented by subsequent
enactments, particularly section 9(c) of
the Reclamation Project Act of 1939 (43
U.S.C. 485(c)); and other acts
specifically applicable to the projects
involved.

Review Under the Paperwork Reduction
Act
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3501,
et seq.), Western has received approval
from the Office of Management and
Budget for the collection of customer
information in this rule, under control
number 1910–5136, which expires on
September 30, 2017.

Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980
(5 U.S.C. 601, et seq.), requires
preparation of an initial regulatory
flexibility analysis whenever an agency
is required by 5 U.S.C. 553, or any other
law, to publish general notice of
proposed rulemaking for any proposed
rule. A final regulatory flexibility
analysis is required whenever the
agency promulgates a final rule under 5
U.S.C. 553, after being required by that
section or any other law to publish a
general notice of proposed rulemaking.
Western has determined that the
analytical requirements of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act do not apply
to this rulemaking because it is a
rulemaking involving services
applicable to public property.
Environmental Compliance
In compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (42
U.S.C. 4321–4370), Council on
Environmental Quality NEPA
implementing regulations (40 CFR parts
1500–1508), and DOE NEPA
implementing regulations (10 CFR part
1021), Western completed a Categorical
Exclusion (CX). Since Western is
reallocating its existing resources and is
not planning to increase its generation
or transmission under this Proposed
Plan, a CX is the appropriate level of
environmental review.

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
In accordance with the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA is issuing
a notice of receipt of requests by
registrants to voluntarily cancel certain
pesticide registrations and amend one
pesticide registration. The amendment
request would delete the following uses
of MGK 264: Outdoor ground
applications (tall grass, shrubbery,
around lawns, corrals, feed lots, swine
lots, zoos); and direct applications to
beef cattle, dairy cattle, and horses. The
product cancellation requests listed
herein would not terminate the last
products registered for these pesticides
for use in the United States. EPA
intends to grant these cancellation and
amendment requests at the close of the
comment period for this announcement
unless the Agency receives substantive
comments within the comment period
that would merit its further review of
the requests, or unless the registrants
withdraw their requests. If these
requests are granted, any sale,
distribution, or use of products listed in
this notice will be permitted after the
registration has been cancelled or
amended only if such sale, distribution,
or use is consistent with the terms as
described in the final order.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before June 6, 2016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public
in general, and may be of interest to a
wide range of stakeholders including
environmental, human health, and
agricultural advocates; the chemical
industry; pesticide users; and members
of the public interested in the sale,
distribution, or use of pesticides. Since
others also may be interested, the
Agency has not attempted to describe all
the specific entities that may be affected
by this action.
B. What should I consider as I prepare
my comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this
information to EPA through
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark
the part or all of the information that
you claim to be CBI. For CBI
information in a disk or CD–ROM that
you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the
disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then
identify electronically within the disk or
CD–ROM the specific information that
is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that
includes information claimed as CBI, a
copy of the comment that does not
contain the information claimed as CBI
must be submitted for inclusion in the
public docket. Information so marked
will not be disclosed except in
accordance with procedures set forth in
40 CFR part 2.
2. Tips for preparing your comments.
When preparing and submitting your
comments, see the commenting tips at
https://www.epa.gov/dockets/
comments.html.
II. What action is the Agency taking?
This notice announces receipt by EPA
of requests from registrants to cancel
certain pesticide products and amend
one product registration for MGK 264 by
deleting specific uses listed in Table 2
of this unit. The affected products and
the registrants making the requests are
identified in Tables 1–3 of this unit.
Unless a request is withdrawn by the
registrant or if the Agency determines
that there are substantive comments that
warrant further review of the request,
EPA intends to issue an order in the
Federal Register cancelling and
amending the affected registrations.

III. 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 cancelled 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.
Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C.
136d(f)(1)(B)) requires that before acting
on a request for voluntary cancellation,
EPA must provide a 30-day public
comment period on the request for
voluntary cancellation or use
termination. In addition, FIFRA section
6(f)(1)(C) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)(C))
requires that EPA provide a 180-day
comment period on a request for
voluntary cancellation or termination of
any minor agricultural use before
granting the request, unless:
1. The registrants request a waiver of
the comment period, or
2. The EPA Administrator determines
that continued use of the pesticide
would pose an unreasonable adverse
effect on the environment.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:20 May 05, 2016
Jkt 238001
The registrants listed in Table 3 of
Unit II requested that EPA waive the
180–day comment period. Accordingly,
EPA will provide a 30–day comment
period on the proposed requests.
IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of
Requests
Registrants who choose to withdraw a
request for product cancellation or use
deletion should submit the withdrawal
in writing to the person listed under FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If the
products have been subject to a previous
cancellation action, the effective date of
cancellation and all other provisions of
any earlier cancellation action are
controlling.
V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing
Stocks
Existing stocks are those stocks of
registered pesticide products that are
currently in the United States and that
were packaged, labeled, and released for
shipment prior to the effective date of
the action. If the requests for voluntary
cancellation and amendments to delete
uses are granted, the Agency intends to
publish the cancellation order in the
Federal Register.
In any order issued in response to
these requests for cancellation of
PO 00000
Frm 00055
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
product registrations and for an
amendment to delete a use, EPA
proposes to include the following
provisions for the treatment of any
existing stocks of the products listed in
Tables 1 and 2 of Unit II.
1. For product 100–1455, the
registrant has indicated to the Agency
via written response that the product
was never produced or sold. Therefore,
EPA anticipates that no existing stocks
provision is needed for the registrant or
persons other than the registrant.
2. For the products 6836–25, 6836–
201, 6836–284, 74075–2, 81002–2, and
81002–3, the registrants have indicated
to the Agency that there are no stocks
of the products in the channels of trade.
Therefore, EPA anticipates that the
registrants do not need an existing
stocks provision. Persons other than the
registrant will generally be allowed to
sell, distribute, or use existing stocks
until such 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 cancelled product.
3. For product registration 47000–101,
ChemTech requested 12 months to
manufacture and distribute existing
stocks. However, since their stated goal

06MYN1
asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
27442
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 88 / Friday, May 6, 2016 / Notices
was to complete sales and distribution
by March 2016, EPA anticipates that the
registrant will not need an existing
stocks provision. Persons other than the
registrant will generally be allowed to
sell, distribute, or use existing stocks
until such 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 cancelled product.
4. For product 67690–40, the
registrant requested an existing stocks
provision to sell and distribute product
until December 31, 2016, and as of that
date will no longer have any current
stock. Therefore, EPA anticipates
allowing the registrant to sell and
distribute existing stocks of the product
through December 31, 2016. Thereafter,
the registrant will be prohibited from
selling and distributing the product,
except for export consistent with FIFRA
section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper
disposal. Persons other than the
registrant will generally be allowed to
sell, distribute, or use existing stocks
until such 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 cancelled product.
5. For the product 89459–27, once
EPA has approved the product label
reflecting the requested amendments to
delete specific uses, the registrant will
be permitted to sell or distribute the
product under the previously approved
labeling for a period of 18 months after
the date of Federal Register publication
of the cancellation order, unless other
restrictions have been imposed.
Thereafter, the registrant will be
prohibited from selling or distributing
the product whose label includes the
deleted uses identified in Table 2 of
Unit II., except for export consistent
with FIFRA section 17 or for proper
disposal. Persons other than the
registrant will generally be allowed to
sell, distribute, or use existing stocks of
the amended product whose label
includes 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
amended product.
6. For all other products identified in
Table 1 of Unit II, EPA anticipates
allowing the registrants to sell and
distribute existing stocks of voluntarily
cancelled products for 1 year after the
effective date of the cancellation, which
will be the date of publication of the
cancellation order in the Federal
Register. Thereafter, registrants will be
prohibited from selling or distributing
the products identified in Table 1 of
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:20 May 05, 2016

Unit II., except for export consistent
with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o)
or for proper disposal. Persons other
than the registrant will generally be
allowed to sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks of cancelled products
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 cancelled products.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-1017; FRL-9943-66]
Notice of Receipt of Requests To Voluntarily Cancel Pesticide
Registrations and Amend Registrations To Terminate Certain Uses
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA is issuing a notice of receipt of requests
by registrants to voluntarily cancel certain pesticide registrations
and amend one pesticide registration. The amendment request would
delete the following uses of MGK 264: Outdoor ground applications (tall
grass, shrubbery, around lawns, corrals, feed lots, swine lots, zoos);
and direct applications to beef cattle, dairy cattle, and horses. The
product cancellation requests listed herein would not terminate the
last products registered for these pesticides for use in the United
States. EPA intends to grant these cancellation and amendment requests
at the close of the comment period for this announcement unless the
Agency receives substantive comments within the comment period that
would merit its further review of the requests, or unless the
registrants withdraw their requests. If these requests are granted, any
sale, distribution, or use of products listed in this notice will be
permitted after the registration has been cancelled or amended only if
such sale, distribution, or use is consistent with the terms as
described in the final order.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before June 6, 2016.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by docket identification
(ID) number EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-1017, by one of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public in general, and may be of
interest to a wide range of stakeholders including environmental, human
health, and agricultural advocates; the chemical industry; pesticide
users; and members of the public interested in the sale, distribution,
or use of pesticides. Since others also may be interested, the Agency
has not attempted to describe all the specific entities that may be
affected by this action.
B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
2. Tips for preparing your comments. When preparing and submitting
your comments, see the commenting tips at https://www.epa.gov/dockets/comments.html.
II. What action is the Agency taking?
This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from registrants
to cancel certain pesticide products and amend one product registration
for MGK 264 by deleting specific uses listed in Table 2 of this unit.
The affected products and the registrants making the requests are
identified in Tables 1-3 of this unit.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
III. 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 cancelled 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.
Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)(B)) requires that
before acting on a request for voluntary cancellation, EPA must provide
a 30-day public comment period on the request for voluntary
cancellation or use termination. In addition, FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(C)
(7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)(C)) requires that EPA provide a 180-day comment
period on a request for voluntary cancellation or termination of any
minor agricultural use before granting the request, unless:
1. The registrants request a waiver of the comment period, or
2. The EPA Administrator determines that continued use of the
pesticide would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment.
The registrants listed in Table 3 of Unit II requested that EPA
waive the 180-day comment period. Accordingly, EPA will provide a 30-
day comment period on the proposed requests.
IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of Requests
Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for product
cancellation or use deletion should submit the withdrawal in writing to
the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If the
products have been subject to a previous cancellation action, the
effective date of cancellation and all other provisions of any earlier
cancellation action are controlling.
V. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks
Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products
that are currently in the United States and that were packaged,
labeled, and released for shipment prior to the effective date of the
action. If the requests for voluntary cancellation and amendments to
delete uses are granted, the Agency intends to publish the cancellation
order in the Federal Register.
In any order issued in response to these requests for cancellation
of product registrations and for an amendment to delete a use, EPA
proposes to include the following provisions for the treatment of any
existing stocks of the products listed in Tables 1 and 2 of Unit II.
1. For product 100-1455, the registrant has indicated to the Agency
via written response that the product was never produced or sold.
Therefore, EPA anticipates that no existing stocks provision is needed
for the registrant or persons other than the registrant.
2. For the products 6836-25, 6836-201, 6836-284, 74075-2, 81002-2,
and 81002-3, the registrants have indicated to the Agency that there
are no stocks of the products in the channels of trade. Therefore, EPA
anticipates that the registrants do not need an existing stocks
provision. Persons other than the registrant will generally be allowed
to sell, distribute, or use existing stocks until such 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 cancelled product.
3. For product registration 47000-101, ChemTech requested 12 months
to manufacture and distribute existing stocks. However, since their
stated goal
[[Page 27442]]
was to complete sales and distribution by March 2016, EPA anticipates
that the registrant will not need an existing stocks provision. Persons
other than the registrant will generally be allowed to sell,
distribute, or use existing stocks until such 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
cancelled product.
4. For product 67690-40, the registrant requested an existing
stocks provision to sell and distribute product until December 31,
2016, and as of that date will no longer have any current stock.
Therefore, EPA anticipates allowing the registrant to sell and
distribute existing stocks of the product through December 31, 2016.
Thereafter, the registrant will be prohibited from selling and
distributing the product, except for export consistent with FIFRA
section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal. Persons other than
the registrant will generally be allowed to sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks until such 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 cancelled
product.
5. For the product 89459-27, once EPA has approved the product
label reflecting the requested amendments to delete specific uses, the
registrant will be permitted to sell or distribute the product under
the previously approved labeling for a period of 18 months after the
date of Federal Register publication of the cancellation order, unless
other restrictions have been imposed. Thereafter, the registrant will
be prohibited from selling or distributing the product whose label
includes the deleted uses identified in Table 2 of Unit II., except for
export consistent with FIFRA section 17 or for proper disposal. Persons
other than the registrant will generally be allowed to sell,
distribute, or use existing stocks of the amended product whose label
includes 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 amended
product.
6. For all other products identified in Table 1 of Unit II, EPA
anticipates allowing the registrants to sell and distribute existing
stocks of voluntarily cancelled products for 1 year after the effective
date of the cancellation, which will be the date of publication of the
cancellation order in the Federal Register. Thereafter, registrants
will be prohibited from selling or distributing the products identified
in Table 1 of Unit II., except for export consistent with FIFRA section
17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal. Persons other than the
registrant will generally be allowed to sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks of cancelled products 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
cancelled products.
