order for the cancellations and
amendments to terminate uses,
voluntarily requested by the registrants
and accepted by the Agency, pursuant
to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide,
and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). This
cancellation order follows a July 30,
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 July 30,
2020 notice, EPA indicated that it
would issue an order implementing the
cancellations and amendments to
terminate uses, unless the Agency
SUMMARY:
received substantive comments within
the 30-day comment period that would
merit its further review of these
requests, or unless the registrants
withdrew their requests. The Agency
received one anonymous public
comment on the notice, but it didn’t
merit its further review of the requests.
Further, the registrants did not
withdraw their requests. Accordingly,
EPA hereby issues in this notice a
cancellation order granting the
requested cancellations and
amendments to terminate uses. Any
distribution, sale, or use of the products
subject to this cancellation order is
permitted only in accordance with the
terms of this order, including any
existing stocks provisions.
DATES: The cancellations and
amendments are effective September 23,
2020.

III. Summary of Public Comments
Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period
provided, EPA received one anonymous
public comment in response to the July
30, 2020 Federal Register notice
announcing the Agency’s receipt of the
requests for voluntary cancellations and
amendments to terminate uses of the
products listed in Tables 1, 1A and 2 of
Unit II. For this reason, the Agency does
not believe that the comment submitted
during the comment period merits
further review or a denial of the requests
for voluntary cancellation or use
termination.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7
U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)), EPA hereby approves
the requested cancellations and
amendments to terminate uses
identified in Tables 1, 1A and 2 of Unit
II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby
orders that the product registrations
identified in Tables 1 and 2 of Unit II
are canceled and amended to terminate
the affected uses. The effective date of
the cancellations that are subject of this
notice is September 23, 2020. The
effective date of the cancellation in
Table 1A is December 31, 2019. Any
distribution, sale, or use of existing
stocks of the products identified in
Tables 1, 1A and 2 of Unit II in a
manner inconsistent with any of the
provisions for disposition of existing
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:02 Sep 22, 2020
Jkt 250001
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 July 30, 2020 (85
FR 45877) (FRL–10012–40). The
comment period closed on August 31,
2020.
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 action. The existing
stocks provision for the products subject
to this order is as follows:
A. For Product 56228–32
For the 56228–32 listed in Table 1A
of Unit II, the registrant has requested
PO 00000
Frm 00061
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the effective date of the cancellation to
be December 31, 2019; therefore, the
registrant will be permitted to sell and
distribute existing stocks of this product
until December 31, 2020. Thereafter, the
registrant will be prohibited from selling
or distributing the product in Table 1A
of Unit II, except for export consistent
with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o)
or for proper disposal.
B. For All Other Voluntary
Cancellations, Identified in Table 1 of
Unit II
For all other voluntary cancellations,
identified in Table 1 of Unit II, the
registrants may continue to sell and
distribute existing stocks of the products
listed in Table 1 until September 23,
2021, which is 1 year after 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 for
proper disposal.
Now that EPA has approved product
labels reflecting the requested
amendments to terminate uses,
registrants are permitted to sell or
distribute the products listed in Table 2
of Unit II under the previously approved
labeling until March 23, 2022, a period
of 18 months after publication of the
cancellation order in this Federal
Register, unless other restrictions have
been imposed. Thereafter, registrants

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 185 / Wednesday, September 23, 2020 / Notices
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
the 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.
ACTION:
Notice—final determination.
[FR Doc. 2020–21004 Filed 9–22–20; 8:45 am]
On behalf of the
Commonwealth of Virginia (the
Commonwealth), the Secretary of the
Virginia Department of Natural
Resources requested that the Regional
Administrator, U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, Region 3 approve a
no-discharge zone for Sarah Creek and
Perrin River, Gloucester County,
Virginia pursuant to the Clean Water
Act. After review of Virginia’s
application, the EPA determined that
adequate facilities for the safe and
sanitary removal and treatment of
sewage from all vessels are reasonably
available for the entirety of Sarah Creek
and Perrin River. The application is
available upon request from the EPA (at
the email address below) or at https://

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As
described in the Commonwealth’s
application, the extent of the proposed
no-discharge zone of Sarah Creek from
York River begins at 37°14′58.34″ N,
76°29′39.17″ W and extends to
37°15′00.81″ N, 76°28′37.84″ W. From
there it continues north throughout any
navigable waters including all
tributaries and bays. The delineation of
the proposed no-discharge zone of
Perrin River from York River begins at
37°15′47.18″ N, 76°25′20.73″ W and
extends to 37°15′50.63″ N, 76°25′11.84″
W. From there it continues north
throughout any navigable waters
including all tributaries and bays.
The Commonwealth certified that
there are three stationary and one
mobile pumpout facilities at two
locations along Sarah Creek and one
stationary pumpout facility along the
Perrin River. Two of the three locations
also have a method to empty portable
toilets. Furthermore, the Hampton
Roads Sanitation District (HRSD)
provides free portable pumpout service
in Gloucester County on Fridays,
Saturdays, and Sundays during summer
months and on Saturdays the rest of the
year. HRSD prefers to service marinas
but will provide the portable pumpout
at a private residence when requested.
The Virginia Department of Health
(VDH) ensures that proper sanitary
facilities are present at marinas, and
marina facilities are inspected annually
by VDH for compliance with
regulations. A list of the facilities,
phone numbers, locations, and hours of
operation follows.

The Commonwealth provided
documentation indicating that the total
vessel population is estimated to be
3,563 vessels (2,115 in Sarah Creek and
1,448 in Perrin River), the majority of
which are recreational. The most
conservative vessel population
estimates provided by the
Commonwealth of Virginia suggest that
there are 535 vessels less than 16 feet in
length, 1,531 vessels between 16 feet
and 25 feet in length, 1,263 vessels
between 25 feet and 40 feet in length,

Additionally, a few small tugboats use
the Perrin River as a staging area. These
vessels likely have MSDs onboard, but
also use porta-johns located on the

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[EPA-HQ-OPP-2020-0060; FRL-10015-01]
Cancellation Order for Certain Pesticide Registrations and
Amendments To Terminate Uses
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA's order for the cancellations and
amendments to terminate uses, voluntarily requested by the registrants
and accepted by the Agency, pursuant to the Federal Insecticide,
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). This cancellation order follows
a July 30, 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 July 30,
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 30-day comment period that
would merit its further review of these requests, or unless the
registrants withdrew their requests. The Agency received one anonymous
public comment on the notice, but it didn't merit its further review of
the requests. Further, the registrants did not withdraw their requests.
Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this notice a cancellation order
granting the requested cancellations and amendments to terminate uses.
Any distribution, sale, or use of the products subject to this
cancellation order is permitted only in accordance with the terms of
this order, including any existing stocks provisions.
DATES: The cancellations and amendments are effective September 23,
2020.

III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period provided, EPA received one
anonymous public comment in response to the July 30, 2020 Federal
Register notice announcing the Agency's receipt of the requests for
voluntary cancellations and amendments to terminate uses of the
products listed in Tables 1, 1A and 2 of Unit II. For this reason, the
Agency does not believe that the comment submitted during the comment
period merits further review or a denial of the requests for voluntary
cancellation or use termination.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)), EPA hereby
approves the requested cancellations and amendments to terminate uses
identified in Tables 1, 1A and 2 of Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency
hereby orders that the product registrations identified in Tables 1 and
2 of Unit II are canceled and amended to terminate the affected uses.
The effective date of the cancellations that are subject of this notice
is September 23, 2020. The effective date of the cancellation in Table
1A is December 31, 2019. Any distribution, sale, or use of existing
stocks of the products identified in Tables 1, 1A and 2 of Unit II in a
manner inconsistent with any of the 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 July
30, 2020 (85 FR 45877) (FRL-10012-40). The comment period closed on
August 31, 2020.
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
action. The existing stocks provision for the products subject to this
order is as follows:
A. For Product 56228-32
For the 56228-32 listed in Table 1A of Unit II, the registrant has
requested the effective date of the cancellation to be December 31,
2019; therefore, the registrant will be permitted to sell and
distribute existing stocks of this product until December 31, 2020.
Thereafter, the registrant will be prohibited from selling or
distributing the product in Table 1A of Unit II, except for export
consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper
disposal.
B. For All Other Voluntary Cancellations, Identified in Table 1 of Unit
II
For all other voluntary cancellations, identified in Table 1 of
Unit II, the registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing
stocks of the products listed in Table 1 until September 23, 2021,
which is 1 year after 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 for
proper disposal.
Now that EPA has approved product labels reflecting the requested
amendments to terminate uses, registrants are permitted to sell or
distribute the products listed in Table 2 of Unit II under the
previously approved labeling until March 23, 2022, a period of 18
months after publication of the cancellation order in this Federal
Register, unless other restrictions have been imposed. Thereafter,
registrants
[[Page 59796]]
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 the 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.
