contains copyrighted material, CBI, or
other information whose disclosure is
restricted by statute. Information
claimed as CBI and other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute
is not included in the official public
docket or in the electronic public
docket. EPA’s policy is that copyrighted
material, including copyrighted material
contained in a public comment, will not
be placed in EPA’s electronic public
docket but will be available only in
printed, paper form in the official public
docket. Although not all docket
materials may be available
electronically, you may still access any
of the publicly available docket
materials through the EPA Docket
Center.
B. How and to whom do I submit
comments?
You may submit comments as
provided in the ADDRESSES section.
Please ensure that your comments are
submitted within the specified comment
period. Comments received after the
close of the comment period will be
marked ‘‘late.’’ EPA is not required to
consider these late comments.
If you submit an electronic comment,
EPA recommends that you include your
name, mailing address, and an email
address or other contact information in
the body of your comment and with any
disk or CD ROM you submit. This
ensures that you can be identified as the
submitter of the comment and allows
EPA to contact you in case EPA cannot
read your comment due to technical
difficulties or needs further information
on the substance of your comment. Any
identifying or contact information
provided in the body of a comment will
be included as part of the comment that
is placed in the official public docket
and made available in EPA’s electronic
public docket. If EPA cannot read your
comment due to technical difficulties
and cannot contact you for clarification,
EPA may not be able to consider your
comment.
Use of the www.regulations.gov
website to submit comments to EPA
electronically is EPA’s preferred method
for receiving comments. The electronic
public docket system is an ‘‘anonymous
access’’ system, which means EPA will
not know your identity, email address,
or other contact information unless you
provide it in the body of your comment.
In contrast to EPA’s electronic public
docket, EPA’s electronic mail (email)
system is not an ‘‘anonymous access’’
system. If you send an email comment

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 canceled or amended to
terminate one or more uses. FIFRA
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:54 Mar 04, 2019
Jkt 247001
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
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
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
E:\FR\FM\05MRN1.SGM
05MRN1
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 43 / Tuesday, March 5, 2019 / Notices
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 have 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
termination 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 or
termination action, the effective date of
cancellation or termination and all other
provisions of any earlier cancellation or
termination 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
terminate 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
amendments to terminate uses, EPA
proposes to include the following
provisions for the treatment of any
existing stocks of the products listed in
Tables 1 and 1A of Unit II.
amozie on DSK9F9SC42PROD with NOTICES
A. For Product: 432–1415
for an 18-month period for products
10324–16 and 10324–182.
For all other voluntary product
cancellations, identified in Table 1 and
Table 1A of Unit II, registrants will be
permitted to sell and distribute existing
stocks of voluntarily canceled 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 and Table 1A of
Unit II, except for export consistent with
FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for
proper disposal.
Once EPA has approved product
labels reflecting the requested
amendments to terminate uses,
identified in Table 2 of Unit II,
registrants will be permitted to sell or
distribute products 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, registrants
will be prohibited from selling or
distributing the products whose labels
include the terminated 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 may
sell, distribute, or use existing stocks of
canceled products and products whose
labels include the terminated 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 canceled products
and terminated uses.
Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.
Dated: February 12, 2019.

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
[[Page 7897]]
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 product registrations to
terminate certain uses registered under FIFRA section 3 (7 U.S.C. 136a)
or 24(c) (7 U.S.C. 136v(c)). 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 this request, EPA intends to issue an order in the Federal
Register canceling 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 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.
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
[[Page 7899]]
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 have 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 termination 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 or termination
action, the effective date of cancellation or termination and all other
provisions of any earlier cancellation or termination 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
terminate 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 amendments to terminate uses, EPA
proposes to include the following provisions for the treatment of any
existing stocks of the products listed in Tables 1 and 1A of Unit II.
A. For Product: 432-1415
The registrant has requested to the Agency via letter to sell
existing stocks for an 18-month period from the date of their letter
dated, September 20, 2018, until March 20, 2020, for product 432-1415.
B. For Product: 432-1578
The registrant has requested to the Agency via letter dated,
November 14, 2017, to sell existing stocks for an 18-month period,
until June 1, 2019, for product 432-1578.
C. For Products: 10324-16 and 10324-182
The registrant has requested to the Agency via letter, to sell
existing stocks for an 18-month period for products 10324-16 and 10324-
182.
For all other voluntary product cancellations, identified in Table
1 and Table 1A of Unit II, registrants will be permitted to sell and
distribute existing stocks of voluntarily canceled 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 and Table 1A of Unit II, except for
export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper
disposal.
Once EPA has approved product labels reflecting the requested
amendments to terminate uses, identified in Table 2 of Unit II,
registrants will be permitted to sell or distribute products 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, registrants will be
prohibited from selling or distributing the products whose labels
include the terminated 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 may sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks of canceled products and products whose labels include
the terminated 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 canceled
products and terminated uses.
