Council’s draft report, Review of EPA’s 

Report to Congress on Black Carbon. 

Availability of Meeting Materials: The 

agenda, the draft Council report, and 

other meeting materials will be available

advance of the meeting. 

Procedures for Providing Public Input: 

Public comment for consideration by 

EPA’s Federal advisory committees and 

panels has a different purpose from 

public comment provided to EPA 

program offices. Therefore, the process 

for submitting comments to a Federal 

advisory committee is different from the 

process used to submit comments to an 

EPA program office. 

Federal advisory committees and 

panels, including scientific advisory 

committees, provide independent 

advice to EPA. Members of the public 

can submit comments for a Federal 

advisory committee to consider as it 

develops advice for EPA. Input from the 

public to the Council will have the most 

impact if it provides specific scientific 

or technical information or analysis for 

Council panels to consider or if it relates 

to the clarity or accuracy of the 

technical information. Members of the 

public wishing to provide comment 

should contact the Designated Federal 

Officer for the relevant advisory 

committee directly. Oral Statements: In 

general, individuals or groups 

requesting an oral presentation at this 

public meeting will be limited to three 

minutes per speaker. Interested parties 

should contact Ms. Stephanie Sanzone, 

DFO, in writing (preferably via e-mail) 

at the contact information noted above 

by June 20, 2011, to be placed on the list 

of public speakers for the meeting. 

Written Statements: Written statements 

should be received in the SAB Staff 

Office by June 20, 2011, so that the 

information can be made available to 

the Panel for their consideration. 

Written statements should be supplied 

to the DFO in electronic format via email (acceptable file formats: Adobe 

Acrobat PDF, WordPerfect, MS Word, 

MS PowerPoint, or Rich Text files in 

IBM–PC/Windows 98/2000/XP format). 

It is the SAB Staff Office general policy 

to post written comments on the Web 

page for the advisory meeting or 

teleconference. Submitters are requested 

to provide an unsigned version of each 

document because the SAB Staff Office 

does not publish documents with 

signatures on its Web sites. Members of 

the public should be aware that their 

personal contact information, if 

included in any written comments, may 

be posted to the SAB Web site. 

Copyrighted material will not be posted 

without explicit permission of the 

copyright holder. 

Accessibility: For information on 

access or services for individuals with 

disabilities, please contact Ms. 

Stephanie Sanzone at the phone number 

or e-mail address noted above, 

preferably at least ten days prior to the 

meeting, to give EPA as much time as 

possible to process your request.

Ziram, Diquat Dibromide, and 

Chloropicrin; Order for Amendments 

To Terminate Uses 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

order for the amendments to terminate 

uses, voluntarily requested by the 

registrants and accepted by the Agency, 

of products containing ziram, diquat 

dibromide, and chloropicrin, pursuant 

to section 6(f)(1) of the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA), as amended. This 

cancellation order follows a December 

1, 2010 Federal Register Notice of 

Receipt of Requests from the registrants 

listed in Table 2 of Unit II. to 

voluntarily amend to terminate uses of 

all these product registrations. These are 

not the last products containing these 

pesticides registered for use in the 

United States. In the December 1, 2010 

notice, EPA indicated that it would 

issue an order implementing the 

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. 

DATES: The amendments are effective 

May 11, 2011.

contact person, with telephone number

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 December 1, 2010 

Federal Register notice announcing the 

Agency’s receipt of the requests for 

voluntary amendments to delete uses of 

products listed in Table 1 of Unit II. 

IV. Termination Order 

Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA 

hereby approves the requested 

amendments to terminate uses of ziram, 

diquat dibromide, and chloropicrin 

registrations identified in Table 1 of 

Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby 

orders that the product registrations 

identified in Table 1 of Unit II are 

amended to terminate the affected uses. 

The effective date of the terminations 

that are the subject of this notice is May 

11, 2011. Any distribution, sale, or use 

of existing stocks of the products 

identified in Table 1 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 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 

on December 1, 2010 (75 FR 74714) 

(FRL–8854–3). The comment period 

closed on January 3, 2011. 

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. 

The registrants of the chloropicrin 

products listed in Table 1 of Unit II 

were permitted to sell and distribute 

products under the previously approved 

labeling until December 1, 2010, or a 

revised date if product labels with the 

2010 changes (i.e., Phase I) had not been 

accepted in all states. The labels were 

not accepted in all states until after 

December 1, 2010 and so registrants 

were permitted by EPA to sell and 

distribute products under previously 

approved labeling until December 31, 

2010. After December 31, 2010, these 

registrants are prohibited from selling or 

distributing the products under 

previously approved labels that include 

the deleted uses identified in Table 1 of 

Unit II, except for export consistent with 

FIFRA section 17 or for proper disposal. 

For the ziram and diquat dibromide 

products listed in Table 1 of Unit II, 

once EPA has approved product labels 

reflecting the requested amendments to 

delete uses, registrants will be permitted 

to sell or distribute products under the 

previously approved labeling for a 

period of 12 months after the date of 

Federal Register publication of the 

order terminating certain uses, unless 

other restrictions have been imposed. 

Thereafter, registrants will be prohibited 

from selling or distributing the products 

whose labels include the deleted uses 

identified in Table 1 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 

products whose labels include the 

deleted 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 

deleted uses.
