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
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:33 Sep 01, 2021
Jkt 253001
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 have requested that
EPA waive the 180-day comment
period. Accordingly, EPA will provide a
PO 00000
Frm 00043
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
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
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
AGENCY
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 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 2 of Unit
II.
For voluntary product cancellations,
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 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,
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 & 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 &
terminated uses.

a Clean Air Act (CAA) title V operating
permit issued by the Texas Commission
on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to
Blanchard Refining Company
(Blanchard) for its Galveston Bay
Refinery located in Galveston County,
Texas.
ADDRESSES: The EPA requests that you

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section to

Petition, and other supporting
information. Out of an abundance of
caution for members of the public and
our staff, the EPA Region 6 office is

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAA
affords EPA a 45-day period to review
and object to, as appropriate, operating
permits proposed by state permitting
authorities under title V of the CAA.
Section 505(b)(2) of the CAA authorizes
any person to petition the EPA
Administrator to object to a title V
operating permit within 60 days after
the expiration of the EPA’s 45-day
review period if the EPA has not
objected on its own initiative. Petitions
must be based only on objections to the
permit that were raised with reasonable
specificity during the public comment
period provided by the state, unless the
petitioner demonstrates that it was
impracticable to raise these issues

during the comment period or unless
the grounds for the issue arose after this
period.
The EPA received the Petition from
the Environmental Integrity Project and
Sierra Club dated April 11, 2017,
requesting that the EPA object to the
issuance of operating permit no. O1541,
issued by TCEQ to the Galveston Bay
Refinery in Galveston County, Texas.
The Petition claims the proposed permit
improperly incorporated a State-only
major source flexible permit, failed to
establish a compliance schedule for
Blanchard to obtain a federally
approved major source permit, failed to
identify, incorporate, and assure
compliance with permits by rule (PBR)
claimed by Blanchard, and failed to
assure compliance with emission limits
and operating requirements established
by Blanchard’s New Source Review
(NSR) permits, including permits by
rule.
On August 9, 2021, the EPA
Administrator issued an Order granting
in part and denying in part the Petition.
The Order explains the basis for EPA’s
decision.

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 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 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 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.
[[Page 49330]]
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 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 2 of Unit II.
For voluntary product cancellations, 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 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, 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 & 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 & terminated uses.
