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

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.

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-

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.

                                                                             IN, KS, KY, MN, MO, MT, NC, ND, NE,

                                                                             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:
     Sale and distribution of existing stocks of Drexel CHLOR-
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.
     Sale and distribution of existing stocks for the following 
products will be permitted until April 30, 2025:

--Drexel Chlorpyrifos 15G (EPA Reg. No. 19713-505).
--Drexel Chlorpyrifos 4E-AG (EPA Reg. No. 19713-520).
--Drexel Chlorpyrifos 15GR (EPA Reg. No. 19713-521).

--Warhawk (EPA Reg. No. 34704-857).
--Warhawk Clear form (EPA Reg. No. 34704-1077); and
--Match-Up Insecticide (EPA Reg. No. 34704-1086).

     Use of existing stocks of the following products on food, 
food processing sites, and food manufacturing sites must be consistent 
with the product labeling and will be permitted until June 30, 2025:

--Drexel Chlorpyrifos 15G (EPA Reg. No. 19713-505).
--Drexel Chlorpyrifos 4E-AG (EPA Reg. No. 19713-520).
--Drexel Chlorpyrifos 15GR (EPA Reg. No. 19713-521).
--Drexel Chlorpyrifos 4E-AG2 (EPA Reg. No. 19713-599).

--Warhawk (EPA Reg. No. 34704-857).
--Warhawk Clear form (EPA Reg. No. 34704-1077); and
--Match-Up Insecticide (EPA Reg. No. 34704-1086).

     Use of existing stocks of these products for non-food 
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.
    After the dates identified in the final cancellation order, sale 
and distribution of existing stocks will be prohibited, except for 
export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), or for proper 
disposal.
    Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.
