Environmental Protection Agency July 1, 2024 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

EPA has received applications to register new uses for pesticide products containing currently registered active ingredients. Pursuant to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA is hereby providing notice of receipt and opportunity to comment on these applications.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving State Implementation Plan (SIP) revisions submitted by the State of Utah on April 19, 2018; May 21, 2020; and July 21, 2020. These SIP submissions include revisions to air quality rules within Utah Administrative Code (UAC) title R307. EPA is taking this action pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act).

This notice announces EPA's order for the cancellations, voluntarily requested by the registrants and accepted by the Agency, of the products listed in table 1 of unit II, pursuant to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). This cancellation order follows an August 31, 2023, Federal Register Notice of Receipt of Requests from the registrants listed in table 2 of unit II, to voluntarily cancel these product registrations. In the August 31, 2023, notice EPA indicated that it would issue an order implementing the cancellations, unless the Agency received substantive comments within the 30-day comment period that would merit its further review of these requests, or unless the registrants withdrew their requests. EPA received one anonymous comment on this notice that was supportive of EPA cancelling these registrations, which EPA acknowledges. Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this notice a cancellation order granting the requested cancellations. Any distribution, sale, or use of the products subject to this cancellation order is permitted only in accordance with the terms of this order, including any existing stocks provisions. This notice also announces that EPA has previously approved the requests for voluntary cancellation of several registrations included in the August 31, 2023, notice listed in table 3 of unit II. EPA sent a separate letter approving these requests for voluntary cancellation to Syngenta Crop Protection, LLC on October 3, 2023. The disposition of existing stocks for these products is governed by the provisions in EPA's October 3, 2023, letter approving the voluntary cancellation of these products rather than unit VI.
