ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[EPA-HQ-OPP-2021-0513; FRL-8830-02-OCSPP]
Cancellation Order for Certain Pesticide Registrations and
Amendments To Terminate Uses
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA's order for the cancellations and
amendments to terminate uses, voluntarily requested by the registrants
and accepted by the Agency, of the products listed in Table 1 and Table
2 of Unit II, pursuant to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). This cancellation order follows a September 2,
2021, Federal Register Notice of Receipt of Requests from the
registrants listed in Table 3 of Unit II to voluntarily cancel and
amend to terminate uses of these product registrations. In the
September 2, 2021, notice, EPA indicated that it would issue an order
implementing the cancellations and amendments to terminate uses, 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 registrants did not withdraw their
requests. Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this notice a cancellation
order granting the requested cancellations and amendments to terminate
uses. 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 and amendments are effective November 15,
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 September 2, 2021, Federal Register notice
announcing the Agency's receipt of the requests for voluntary
cancellations and amendments to terminate uses of the products listed
in Tables 1 and 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 amendments to terminate uses
of the registrations identified in Tables 1 and 2 of Unit II.
Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the product registrations
identified in Tables 1 and 2 of Unit II are canceled and amended to
terminate the affected uses. The effective date of the cancellations
that are subject of this notice is November 15, 2021. Any distribution,
sale, or use of existing stocks of the products identified in Tables 1
and 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
September 2, 2021 (86 FR 49327) (FRL-8830-01-OSCPP). The comment period
closed on October 4, 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
action. The existing stocks provision for the products subject to this
order is as follows.
For the voluntary cancellations, the registrants may continue to
sell and distribute existing stocks of products listed in Table 1 until
November 15,
[[Page 63022]]
2022, 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 May 15, 2023, 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 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 terminated uses.
Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.
