Uses
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
In accordance with the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA
or Agency) is providing this notice of
receipt of and soliciting comment on the
requests identified in Unit II. received
from the registrants to voluntarily
cancel their registrations of certain
products containing the pesticide
chlorpyrifos, or to amend their
chlorpyrifos registrations to terminate
one or more uses. EPA intends to grant
these requests at the close of the
comment period for this announcement
unless the Agency receives substantive
comments within the comment period
that would merit its further review of
the requests or if the registrant
withdraws their request to cancel these
uses or products. If these requests are
granted, EPA will issue a final
cancelation order under which any sale,
distribution, or use of the products
listed in this notice will be permitted
after the registrations have been
cancelled or the uses terminated only if
such sale, distribution, or use is
consistent with the terms described in
the final order.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before August 14, 2024.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments,
identified by docket identification (ID)
number EPA–HQ–OPP–2022–0223,
through the Federal eRulemaking Portal
at https://www.regulations.gov. Follow
the online instructions for submitting
comments. Do not submit electronically

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public
in general and may be of interest to a
wide range of stakeholders including
environmental, human health, and
agricultural advocates; the chemical
industry; pesticide users; and members
of the public interested in the sale,
distribution, or use of pesticides. Since
others also may be interested, the
Agency has not attempted to describe all
the specific entities that may be affected
by this action.
B. What should I consider as I prepare
comment for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit CBI
to EPA through email or https://
www.regulations.gov. If you wish to
include CBI in your comment, please
follow the applicable instructions at
https://www.epa.gov/dockets/
commenting-epa-dockets#rules and
clearly mark the information that you
claim to be CBI. Information so marked
will not be disclosed except in
accordance with procedures set forth in
40 CFR part 2.
2. Tips for preparing your comments.
When preparing and submitting your
comments, see the commenting tips at
https://www.epa.gov/dockets/
commenting-epa-dockets.
II. What action is the Agency taking?
This notice announces receipt by the
Agency of requests from the registrants
identified in Table 3 of this unit to
cancel certain pesticide products or uses
registered under FIFRA section 3 (7
U.S.C. 136a) or 24(c) (7 U.S.C. 136v(c)).
These registrations are listed in
sequence by registration number in table
1 and table 2 of this unit.
The current voluntary requests for
termination of certain registered
chlorpyrifos uses submitted by
Loveland and as reflected in this notice
supersede the requests for voluntary
cancellation previously submitted by
Loveland for which EPA provided
notice in the Federal Register on August
29, 2023 (88 FR 59521) (FRL–5993–05–

Request to Voluntarily Cancel Certain
Pesticide Registrations.
Unless the Agency determines that
there are substantive comments that
warrant further review of the requests or
the registrants withdraw their requests,
EPA intends to issue an order in the
Federal Register cancelling registrations
and terminating uses as requested after
the close of the comment period.

Food uses: Citrus orchard floors (except in AL, FL, GA, NC, SC, TX), field corn

As noted in table 1, Drexel and
Loveland requested that several food
uses be terminated, except in certain
enumerated states; however, some of the
uses identified in the table are not
registered in states excluded from
termination. Where the uses are not
currently registered in those states, EPA
intends to simply approve the use
termination requests that are applicable,
i.e., cancellation of use in those states
where the use is registered, except in
the enumerated states where the use is
also registered. The request not to
terminate uses in states where the
product is not registered will not result
in the product being registered in those
states; registration of those uses in
additional states must be accomplished
through the FIFRA section 3 registration
process.
Specifically, Drexel and Loveland
requested that the use on apples be
terminated, except in Idaho, Oregon,
and Washington, among other states, on
EPA Reg. Nos. 19713–520, 19713–599,
19713–671, 34704–857, and 34704–
1077; however, some of the apple uses
on those registrations are only permitted
in states east of the Rockies. For those
apple uses that are currently not
permitted in Idaho, Oregon, and
Washington, the request not to
terminate use on apples in those states
has no effect. Similarly, Drexel and
Loveland requested that the use on
wheat be terminated, except in Missouri
(spring and winter wheat) or Iowa
(winter wheat), on EPA Reg. Nos.
19713–520, 19713–599, 19713–671,
34704–857, and 34704–1077. But
because these products are not
registered for use on wheat in those
states, that request has no effect. EPA
intends to approve the requests to
terminate uses that are registered,
except for the uses that are requested to
be retained where those uses are
currently registered.

III. What is the Agency’s authority for
taking these actions?
FIFRA section 6(f)(1) (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 cancel
registered uses for a pesticide. FIFRA
further provides that, before acting on
the request, EPA must publish a notice
of receipt of any such request in the
Federal Register and provide a 30-day
public comment period on the request
for voluntary cancellation or use
termination. 7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)(B). 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 registrant requests 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 listed in table 3 of unit
II. have requested that EPA waive the
180-day comment period. Accordingly,
EPA is providing a 30-day comment
period on the requests.

IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of
Request
Registrants who choose to withdraw a
request for cancellation should submit
such 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 cancellation action.
If the requests for voluntary
cancellation and amendments to
terminate uses are granted, the Agency
intends to publish a final cancellation
order in the Federal Register. 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 tables 1 and 2 of unit

Chlorpyrifos; Notice of Receipt of Request To Cancel Certain
Pesticide Registrations and Amend Registrations To Terminate Certain
Uses
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or
Agency) is providing this notice of receipt of and soliciting comment
on the requests identified in Unit II. received from the registrants to
voluntarily cancel their registrations of certain products containing
the pesticide chlorpyrifos, or to amend their chlorpyrifos
registrations to terminate one or more uses. EPA intends to grant these
requests at the close of the comment period for this announcement
unless the Agency receives substantive comments within the comment
period that would merit its further review of the requests or if the
registrant withdraws their request to cancel these uses or products. If
these requests are granted, EPA will issue a final cancelation order
under which any sale, distribution, or use of the products listed in
this notice will be permitted after the registrations have been
cancelled or the uses terminated only if such sale, distribution, or
use is consistent with the terms described in the final order.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before August 14, 2024.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by docket identification
(ID) number EPA-HQ-OPP-2022-0223, through the Federal eRulemaking
Portal at https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the online instructions
for submitting comments. Do not submit electronically any information
you consider to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other
information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Additional
instructions on commenting and visiting the docket, along with more
information about dockets generally, is available at https://www.epa.gov/dockets.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Patricia Biggio, Pesticide Re-
Evaluation Division (7508M), Office of Pesticide Programs,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public in general and may be of
interest to a wide range of stakeholders including environmental, human
health, and agricultural advocates; the chemical industry; pesticide
users; and members of the public interested in the sale, distribution,
or use of pesticides. Since others also may be interested, the Agency
has not attempted to describe all the specific entities that may be
affected by this action.
B. What should I consider as I prepare comment for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit CBI to EPA through email or
https://www.regulations.gov. If you wish to include CBI in your
comment, please follow the applicable instructions at https://www.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets#rules and clearly mark the
information that you claim to be CBI. Information so marked will not be
disclosed except in accordance with procedures set forth in 40 CFR part
2.
2. Tips for preparing your comments. When preparing and submitting
your comments, see the commenting tips at https://www.epa.gov/dockets/commenting-epa-dockets.
II. What action is the Agency taking?
This notice announces receipt by the Agency of requests from the
registrants identified in Table 3 of this unit to cancel certain
pesticide products or uses registered under FIFRA section 3 (7 U.S.C.
136a) or 24(c) (7 U.S.C. 136v(c)). These registrations are listed in
sequence by registration number in table 1 and table 2 of this unit.
The current voluntary requests for termination of certain
registered chlorpyrifos uses submitted by Loveland and as reflected in
this notice supersede the requests for voluntary cancellation
previously submitted by Loveland for which EPA provided notice in the
Federal Register on August 29, 2023 (88 FR 59521) (FRL-5993-05-
[[Page 57402]]
OCSPP), Chlorpyrifos; Notice Receipt of Request to Voluntarily Cancel
Certain Pesticide Registrations.
Unless the Agency determines that there are substantive comments
that warrant further review of the requests or the registrants withdraw
their requests, EPA intends to issue an order in the Federal Register
cancelling registrations and terminating uses as requested after the
close of the comment period.

WI, WV, WY).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As noted in table 1, Drexel and Loveland requested that several
food uses be terminated, except in certain enumerated states; however,
some of the uses identified in the table are not registered in states
excluded from termination. Where the uses are not currently registered
in those states, EPA intends to simply approve the use termination
requests that are applicable, i.e., cancellation of use in those states
where the use is registered, except in the enumerated states where the
use is also registered. The request not to terminate uses in states
where the product is not registered will not result in the product
being registered in those states; registration of those uses in
additional states must be accomplished through the FIFRA section 3
registration process.
Specifically, Drexel and Loveland requested that the use on apples
be terminated, except in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington, among other
states, on EPA Reg. Nos. 19713-520, 19713-599, 19713-671, 34704-857,
and 34704-1077; however, some of the apple uses on those registrations
are only permitted in states east of the Rockies. For those apple uses
that are currently not permitted in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington, the
request not to terminate use on apples in those states has no effect.
Similarly, Drexel and Loveland requested that the use on wheat be
terminated, except in Missouri (spring and winter wheat) or Iowa
(winter wheat), on EPA Reg. Nos. 19713-520, 19713-599, 19713-671,
34704-857, and 34704-1077. But because these products are not
registered for use on wheat in those states, that request has no
effect. EPA intends to approve the requests to terminate uses that are
registered, except for the uses that are requested to be retained where
those uses are currently registered.

III. What is the Agency's authority for taking these actions?
FIFRA section 6(f)(1) (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 cancel registered uses for
a pesticide. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request,
EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such request in the Federal
Register and provide a 30-day public comment period on the request for
voluntary cancellation or use termination. 7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)(B). 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 registrant requests 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 listed in table 3 of unit II. have requested that
EPA waive the 180-day comment period. Accordingly, EPA is providing a
30-day comment period on the requests.
IV. Procedures for Withdrawal of Request
Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for cancellation
should submit such 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
cancellation action.
If the requests for voluntary cancellation and amendments to
terminate uses are granted, the Agency intends to publish a final
cancellation order in the Federal Register. 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 tables 1 and 2 of unit II:

PY-REX Chlorpyrifos Insecticide (EPA Reg. No. 19713-527), Drexel
Chlorpyrifos Technical (EPA Reg. No. 19713-573) and Drexel Chlorpyrifos
99% Technical (EPA Reg. No. 19713-575) will not be permitted after the
final cancellation order is issued.

purposes will be permitted until existing stocks are exhausted, as long
as such use is in accordance with the labeling.
Use of existing stocks of Drexel Chlorpyrifos Concentrate
(EPA Reg. No. 19713-518), will be permitted until existing stocks are
exhausted, as long as such use is in accordance with the labeling as
this product is not registered for any food uses.

and distribution of existing stocks will be prohibited, except for
export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), or for proper
