Download as PDF 52346 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 165 / Tuesday, August 25, 2020 / Notices regulations. Specifically, Complainant explained that its actions were consistent with or mandated by the EPA Clean Water Act Section 404 Settlement Penalty Policy and EPA Supplemental Environmental Projects Policy. Complainant further explained that actions taken by EPA were in accordance with applicable regulations and statutes. The undersigned, therefore, denied Petitioner’s recommendations to modify the proposed CAFO. Sixth, Petitioner requested a hearing, arguing the proposed settlement and penalty are inadequate. At such hearing, Petitioner proposed presenting evidence of Respondent’s prior infractions, Respondent’s behavior as a habitual violator, and demonstrate that a severe penalty is warranted. The undersigned determined that the Consolidated Rules and Section 309(g)(4)(C) of the CWA do not provide for a hearing of this nature. Rather, evidence would be presented for the purpose of determining whether Complainant met its burden of proving that Respondent committed the violations as alleged in the CAFO and that the penalty is appropriate based on applicable law and policy. The undersigned noted that Petitioner did not offer material or relevant evidence, either documentary or testimonial, that it would present at such hearing. The undersigned further noted that Petitioner did not offer any evidence or arguments in its Comments or Petition that had not adequately been addressed by Complainant. For these reasons, the undersigned found that resolution of the proceeding by the Parties without a hearing would be appropriate. The undersigned therefore issued the Order Denying Petition to Set Aside Consent Agreement and Proposed Final Order. Dated: August 19, 2020. Robin Allen, Petition Officer, Region 4.

This cancellation order follows a February 4, 2020 Federal Register Notice of Receipt of Requests from the registrants listed in Table 3 of Unit II to voluntarily cancel and amend to terminate uses of these product registrations. In the February 4, 2020 notice, EPA indicated that it would issue an order implementing the cancellations and amendments to terminate uses, unless the Agency received substantive comments within the 180-day comment period that would merit its further review of these requests, or unless the registrants withdrew their requests. The Agency did not receive any comments on the notice. Further, the registrant for 1007– 99, 1007–100 and 1007–1001 did withdraw their requests to cancel these product registrations; therefore, these product registrations have been removed from this notice. Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this notice a cancellation order granting the requested cancellations and amendments to terminate uses.
