requested by the registrants and 

accepted by the Agency, of products 

containing the pesticide listed in Table 

1 of Unit II., pursuant to the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA). This cancellation order 

follows a February 11, 2015 Federal

voluntarily cancel all these product 

registrations. These are the last products 

containing these pesticides registered

comments within the 30-day comment 

period that would merit its further

registrants withdrew their request 

within this period. The Agency did not 

receive any comments on the notice. 

Further, the registrants did not 

withdraw their request. Accordingly, 

EPA hereby issues in this notice 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.
