III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to Comments The agency received one comment from American Bird Conservancy agreeing with the cancellations in the notice of March 10, 2023: 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 and use termination. IV. Cancellation Order lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)), EPA hereby approves the requested cancellations and amendments to terminate uses of certain pesticide registrations identified in Tables 1 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 August 30, 2023. Any distribution, sale, or use of existing stocks of the products identified in Tables 1 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:31 Aug 29, 2023 Jkt 259001 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 March 10, 2023 (88 FR 15015) (FRL–10762–01–OCSPP). The comment period closed on April 10, 2023. 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. For voluntary cancellations, the registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks of products listed in Table 1 until August 30, 2024, 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 products listed in Table 2 of Unit II, under the previously approved labeling until March 3, 2025, a period of 18 months after publication of the PO 00000 Frm 00054 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 cancellation order in this Federal Register, 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.

AGENCY: ACTION: Notice of approval. Notice is hereby given that the Navajo Nation revised its approved primacy program under the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) by adopting regulations that effectuate the Federal Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (S2 DBPR) and the Ground Water Rule (GWR). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has determined that Navajo Nation’s revision request meets the applicable SDWA program revision requirements and the regulations adopted by the Navajo Nation are no less stringent than the corresponding federal regulations. Therefore, EPA approves this revision to Navajo Nation’s approved primacy program. However, this determination on the Navajo Nation’s request for approval of a program revision shall take effect in accordance with the procedures described below in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of this notice after the opportunity to request a public hearing. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:31 Aug 29, 2023 Jkt 259001 A request for a public hearing must be received or postmarked before September 29, 2023. ADDRESSES: Documents relating to this determination that were submitted by the Navajo Nation as part of its program revision request are available for public inspection online at https:// www.navajoepa.org or available upon request by emailing ybarney@ navajopublicwater.org.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nnana Edmund, EPA Region 9, Drinking Water Section; via telephone at (415) 972–3996 or via email address at edmund.nnana@epa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background. EPA approved the Navajo Nation’s initial application for primary enforcement authority (‘‘primacy’’) of drinking water systems on October 23, 2000. Since initial primacy approval, EPA has approved various revisions to Navajo Nation’s primacy program. For the revision covered by this action, EPA promulgated the S2 DBPR on January 4, 2006 (71 FR 387) with technical corrections on January 27, 2006 (71 FR 4644) and June 29, 2006 (71 FR 37168) and minor corrections on November 14, 2008 (73 FR 67456–87463) to strengthen public health protection by tightening compliance monitoring requirements for Trihalomethanes and Haloacetic acids, targeting public water systems with the greatest health risk. EPA promulgated the GWR on November 8, 2006 (71 FR 65574) to provide protection against microbial pathogens in public water systems using groundwater sources. EPA has determined that the Navajo Nation has incorporated by reference into law, the S2 DBPR and GWR requirements that are comparable to and no less stringent than the federal requirements. EPA has also determined that Navajo Nation’s program revision request meets all of the regulatory requirements for approval, as set forth in 40 CFR 142.12, including a side-byside comparison of the Federal requirements demonstrating the corresponding Navajo Nation authorities, additional materials to support special primacy requirements of 40 CFR 142.16, a review of the requirements contained in 40 CFR 142.10 necessary for Navajo Nation to attain and retain primary enforcement responsibility, and a statement by the Navajo Nation Attorney General certifying that Navajo Nation’s laws and regulations to carry out the program revision were duly adopted and are DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00055 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 enforceable. The Attorney General’s statement also affirms that there are no environmental audit privilege and immunity laws that would impact Navajo Nation’s ability to implement or enforce the Navajo Nation laws and regulations pertaining to the program revision. Therefore, EPA approves this revision of the Navajo Nation’s approved primacy program. The Technical Support Document, which provides the EPA’s analysis of the Navajo Nation’s program revision request, is available by submitting a request to the following email address: edmund.nnana@epa.gov. Please note ‘‘Technical Support Document’’ in the subject line of the email. Public Process. Any interested person may request a public hearing on this determination.
