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)) VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:16 Jul 27, 2023 Jkt 259001 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.

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 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 action, the 
effective date of cancellation and all other provisions of any earlier 
cancellation 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.

[[Page 48845]]

    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 Table 1, Table 1A, Table 1B 
and Table 2 of Unit II.

A. For: 264-334, 264-335, 264-429, 432-982, 432-1209, 432-1210, 432-
1211, 432-1212, 432-1227, 432-1511, and 432-1525

    For 264-334, 264-335, 264-429, 432-982, 432-1209, 432-1210, 432-
1211, 432-1212, 432-1227, 432-1511, and 432-1525, listed in Table 1A of 
Unit II, the registrants have requested 18-months 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 1A of Unit II, except for export consistent with FIFRA section 
17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal.

B. For: 61483-2; 61483-3; 61483-94, and 97080-10

    For 61483-2; 61483-3; 61483-94, and 97080-10, listed in Table 1B of 
Unit II, the registrants of the products listed in Table 1B of Unit II, 
have requested an effective date of cancellation of February 29, 2024, 
for the products listed in Table 1B 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 March 01, 2025. Thereafter, registrants 
will be prohibited from selling or distributing the products identified 
in Table 1B of Unit II, except for export consistent with FIFRA section 
17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal.
    For all other voluntary product cancellations listed in Table 1 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 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, listed 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.
