Because the reinstatement of the chlorpyrifos tolerances means that chlorpyrifos products can be used in accordance with their labeling without concern for adulterated food, EPA is amending the August 31, 2022 cancellation order to update the existing stocks provisions as they apply to the following Liberty products: • Liberty Chlorpyrifos Bifenthrin (EPA Reg. No. 89168–20). • Liberty Chlorpyrifos 4E (EPA Reg. No. 89168–24). The registrant for these listed products is Liberty Crop Protection, LLC, and its address is 1880 Fall River Drive, Suite #100, Loveland, CO 80538. EPA is also amending the May 4, 2023 cancellation order to update the existing stocks provisions as they relate to the following Winfield products: • Tundra Supreme (EPA Reg. No. 1381–243). • CPF 4E (EPA Reg. No. 83222–20). • CPF 15G (EPA Reg. No. 83222–34). The registrant for all three of the listed products is Winfield Solutions, LLC, and its address is 1080 County Rd., F West, MS5705, P.O. Box 64589, St. Paul, MN 55164. III. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks 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 cancelled or amended to terminate one or more registered uses. Since the tolerances for chlorpyrifos residues on food commodities have been reinstated by the Eighth Circuit, food bearing chlorpyrifos residues could be sold in interstate commerce. EPA has noted however, that it intends to issue a new rulemaking revoking several chlorpyrifos tolerances in the near future. In the meantime, the following amendments to the existing stocks provisions for Winfield and Liberty products are consistent with the path forward for disposition of existing stocks for other existing stocks amendment requests and voluntary cancellations for chlorpyrifos requested by registrants. Existing stocks for the products identified in this order 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 August 31, 2022, for the Liberty products and May 4, 2023, for the Winfield products. At this time, EPA is amending the existing stocks provisions in the August 31, 2022 cancellation order as they VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:57 Jun 17, 2024 Jkt 262001 apply to the Liberty chlorpyrifos products mentioned in this notice. EPA has determined that the following existing stocks provisions are not inconsistent with the purposes of FIFRA, given the limited amount of existing stocks and the limited time allowed for use of the existing stocks outlined below: • Sale and distribution of existing stocks of Liberty Chlorpyrifos Bifenthrin (EPA Reg. No. 89168–20) and Liberty Chlorpyrifos 4E (EPA Reg. Nos. 89168– 24) is permitted until April 30, 2025. • Use of existing stocks of Liberty Chlorpyrifos Bifenthrin (EPA Reg. No. 89168–20) and Liberty Chlorpyrifos 4E (EPA Reg. Nos. 89168–24) must be consistent with the product labeling. Such use is permitted until June 30, 2025. Use of existing stocks Liberty Chlorpyrifos Bifenthrin (EPA Reg. No. 89168–20) and Liberty Chlorpyrifos 4E (EPA Reg. Nos. 89168–24) for non-food purposes is permitted until existing stocks are exhausted, as long as such use is in accordance with the labeling. At this time, EPA is amending the existing stocks provisions in the May 4, 2023 cancellation order as they apply to the Winfield products identified in this notice. EPA has determined that the following existing stocks provisions are not inconsistent with the purposes of FIFRA given the limited amount of existing stocks and the limited time allowed for use of the existing stocks outlined below: • Sale and distribution of existing stocks of Tundra Supreme (EPA Reg. No. 1381–243), CPF 4E (EPA Reg. No. 83222–20), and CPF 15G (EPA Reg. No. 83222–34) is permitted until April 30, 2025. • Use of existing stocks of Tundra Supreme (EPA Reg. No. 1381–243), CPF 4E (EPA Reg. No. 83222–20), and CPF 15G (EPA Reg. No. 83222–34) must be consistent with the product labeling. Such use is permitted until June 30, 2025. Use of existing stocks Tundra Supreme (EPA Reg. No. 1381–243), CPF 4E (EPA Reg. No. 83222–20), and CPF 15G (EPA Reg. No. 83222–34) for nonfood purposes is permitted until existing stocks are exhausted, as long as such use is in accordance with the labeling. After these dates, all sale, distribution, and use of existing stocks is prohibited, except for sale and distribution for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) and for proper disposal.
