Product Cancellation Order for Certain Pesticide Registrations
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This submission announces EPA's order for the cancellations,
voluntarily requested by the registrants and accepted by the Agency, of
the products listed in Table 1 & Table 1A of Unit II, pursuant to the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). This
cancellation order follows a May 11, 2021 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 May 11, 2021
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. The Agency
did not receive any comments on the notice. Further, the Agency
received a notice from a registrant to withdraw a certain cancellation
request. Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this submission, 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.
DATES: The cancellations are effective July 20, 2021.

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 May 11, 2021 Federal Register notice announcing the
Agency's receipt of the requests for voluntary cancellations of
products listed in Table 1 & Table 1A of Unit II; however, the
registrant FMC Corporation, withdrew their request for cancellation of
the product registration 279-3333; therefore, this product registration
has been removed from this cancellation order.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)), EPA hereby
approves the requested cancellations of the registrations identified in
Table 1 & Table 1A of Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders
that the product registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit II are
canceled. The effective date of the cancellations that are the subject
of this document is July 20, 2021. Any distribution, sale, or use of
existing stocks of the products identified in Table 1 & Table 1A 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 May
11, 2021 (86 FR 25861) (FRL-10023-30). The comment period closed on
June 10, 2021.
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
cancellation action. The existing stocks provisions for the products
subject to this order are as follows.
A. For Products 400-600, 10324-89, 10324-139, 10324-140, 10324-149,
10324-187, 34704-920, 70506-214, 70506-292 & 70506-293
For products 400-600, 10324-89, 10324-139, 10324-140, 10324-149,
10324-187, 34704-920, 70506-214, 70506-292 & 70506-293, the registrants
have requested 18-months to sell existing stocks. Because the Agency
has identified no significant potential risk concerns associated with
these pesticide products, upon cancellation of these product
cancellations, identified in Table 1of Unit II, EPA anticipates
allowing registrants to sell and
[[Page 38343]]
distribute existing stocks of these voluntarily canceled products for
18-months after the effective date of the publication of the
Cancellation Order in the Federal Register. Thereafter, registrants
will be prohibited from selling or distributing these products
identified in Table 1 of Unit II, except for export consistent with
FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal.
B. For Product 1021-2600
For product 1021-2600, the registrant has requested that the
cancellation becomes effective September 30, 2022. Because the Agency
has identified no significant potential risk concerns associated with
this pesticide product, upon cancellation of this product cancellation,
identified in Table 1A of Unit II, EPA anticipates allowing registrants
to sell and distribute existing stocks of this voluntarily canceled
product for 1 year after the effective date of the product
cancellation, which will be September 30, 2023. Thereafter, registrants
will be prohibited from selling or distributing this product identified
in Table 1A of Unit II, except for export consistent with FIFRA section
17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal.
The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks
of all other products listed in Table 1 of Unit II until July 20, 2022,
which is 1 year after the publication of the Cancellation Order in the
Federal Register. Thereafter, the registrants are prohibited from
selling or distributing all other products listed in Table 1, except
for export in accordance with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), or
proper disposal. Persons other than the registrants may sell,
distribute, or use existing stocks of products listed in Table 1 &
Table 1A of Unit II until existing stocks 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.
