ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[EPA-HQ-OPP-2018-0014; FRL-9993-14]
Product 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, Table 1A and Table 2 of Unit II, pursuant to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). This cancellation order follows a March 5, 2019 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 March 5, 2019 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 received two comments on the notice, to remove their registrations from the cancellation order notice. The registrants for 4959-16, 4959-36 and 33753-31, requested via letter to withdraw their registrations from this notice. 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 May 13, 2019.

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 March 05, 2019 (84 FR 7896) (FRL-9988-66). The comment period closed on April 04, 2019.
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.
A. For Product: 432-1415
The registrant has requested to the Agency via letter to sell existing stocks for an 18-month period from the date of their letter dated, September 20, 2018, until March 20, 2020, for product 432-1415.
B. For Product: 432-1578
The registrant has requested to the Agency via letter dated, November 14, 2017, to sell existing stocks for an 18-month period, until June 1, 2019, for product 432-1578.

For all other voluntary cancellations, the registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks of products listed in Table 1 and Table 1A until May 13, 2020, 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 and Table 1A 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 November 12, 2020, 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.
