to interact with estrogen, androgen and thyroid hormone systems. Based on the data from the 11 Tier 1 assays, should the determination be made that the chemical is shown to interact, additional Tier 2 testing may be required.

EPA is seeking public comment on a December 6, 2011 petition from the Chemical Producers & Distributors Association (CPDA), the Halogenated Solvents Industry Alliance, Inc., and the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). The petition requested that the Agency abide by the Paperwork Reduction Act and Office of Management and Budget Terms of Clearance for the approved Information Collection Request (ICR) of the first list of 67 chemicals to receive orders under the Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program by demonstrating that the information collected: (1) Has practical utility in that it can distinguish whether a chemical has the potential to interact with the endocrine system or not; (2) has practical utility before proceeding with more Tier 1 screening orders for additional chemicals; and (3) is not duplicative of other information collection activities by the Agency but also is not duplicative of existing information. B. What is the agency’s authority for taking this action?

This action is taken under the authority of FFDCA section 408(p), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3). List of Subjects

III. What is the Agency’s authority for taking this action?

Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a pesticide product may at any time request that any of its pesticide registrations be cancelled. FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request, EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any such request in the Federal Register

.

Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA requires that before acting on a request for voluntary cancellation, EPA must provide a 30-day public comment period on the request for voluntary cancellation or use termination. In addition, FIFRA section 6(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 registrants request 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 in Table 2 of Unit II., have not requested that EPA waive the 180-day comment period. Accordingly, EPA will provide a 180-day comment period on the proposed 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. Because the Agency has identified no significant potential risk concerns associated with these pesticide products, upon cancellation of the products identified in Table 1 of Unit II., EPA will allow existing stocks provisions as follows: A. Registrations Listed in Table 1 of Unit II except for No. WA860012

EPA anticipates allowing registrants to sell and distribute existing stocks of these products for 1 year after publication of the Cancellation Order in the Federal Register . Thereafter, registrants will be prohibited from selling or distributing the pesticides identified in Table 1 of Unit II., except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 or for proper disposal. Persons other than registrants will generally be allowed to sell, distribute, or use existing stocks until such 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 cancelled products.
B. Registration No. WA860012

The effective date of cancellation of this product is the date of publication of the cancellation order in the Federal Register . EPA does not intend to allow the continued sale and distribution of existing stocks of this product after the effective date of this cancellation. There are currently no tolerances in effect for any of the food or feed crops associated with the domestic use of carbofuran products, and there have been none since the 2009 tolerance revocations took effect on December 31, 2009, (May 15, 2009, 74 FR 23046) (FRL–8413–3).
