III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to
Comments
During the public comment period provided, EPA received no comments
in response to the Federal Register notice of October 16, 2023 (88 FR
71356) (FRL-11443-01-OCSPP) announcing the Agency's receipt of the
requests for voluntary cancellations and/or amendments to terminate
uses of products listed in Table 1, Table 1A and Table 2 of Unit II.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)), EPA hereby
approves the requested cancellations and/or amendments to terminate
uses of certain product registrations identified in Table 1, Table 1A
and Table 2 of Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the
product registrations identified in Table 1, Table 1A and Table 2 of
Unit II, are canceled and/or amended to terminate the affected uses.
The effective date of the cancellations that are subject of this notice
is [INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE Federal Register]. Any
distribution, sale, or use of existing stocks of the products
identified in Table 1, Table 1A and Table 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
October 16, 2023 (88 FR 71356) (FRL-11443-01-OCSPP). The comment period
closed on November 15, 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: 5481-490
For 581-490, listed in Table 1A of Unit II, the registrant
requested only 6-months after the effective date of the cancellation to
sell existing stocks, which will be the date of publication of the
cancellation order in the Federal Register. The registrant may continue
to sell and distribute existing stocks of the product listed in Table
1A until June 27, 2024, which is 6 months after publication of this
cancellation order in the Federal Register. Thereafter, the registrant
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.
For all other voluntary cancellations listed in Table 1 of Unit II,
the registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks of
products listed in Table 1 of Unit II, until December 27, 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 June 27, 2025, a period of 18 months after
publication of the 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/or 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/or terminated uses.
Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.
Dated: December 21, 2023.
