III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period provided, EPA received two general
comments concerning the chemical, glyphosate. The Agency does not
believe that the comments submitted during the comment periods merits
further review or the denial of the requests for the voluntary
cancellations of products listed in Table 1 of Unit II or the request
for the amendment to terminate uses in Table 2 or Unit II.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)), EPA hereby
approves the requested cancellations and/or amendment to terminate uses
of the registrations identified in Table 1 and Table 2 of Unit II.
Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the product registrations
identified in Table 1 of Unit II. are canceled and/or amended to
terminate the effective uses. The effective date of the cancellations
that are the subject of this notice is July 5, 2017. 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
[[Page 31060]]
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 (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 June
8, 2016 (81 FR 36913) (FRL-9943-68). The comment period closed on
December 5, 2016.
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.
The registrant(s) may continue to sell and distribute existing
stocks of product(s) listed in Table 1 of Unit II. until July 5, 2018,
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 1, 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.
Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.
Dated: May 25, 2017.

Director, Information Technology and Resources Management Division,
