AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

order for the cancellation, voluntarily 

requested by the registrant and accepted 

by the Agency, of products containing 

the pesticide difenzoquat, pursuant to 

section 6(f)(1) of the Federal Insecticide, 

Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act 

(FIFRA), as amended. This cancellation 

order follows a November 25, 2009 

Federal Register Notice of Receipt of 

Request from the registrant listed in 

Table 1 to voluntarily cancel these 

product registrations. These are the last 

products containing these pesticides 

registered for use in the United States. 

In the November 25, 2009 Notice, EPA 

indicated that it would issue an order 

implementing the cancellations, unless 

the Agency received substantive 

comments within the 30-day comment 

period that would merit its further 

review of these requests, or unless the 

registrant withdrew their request within 

this period. The Agency did not receive 

any comments on the Notice. Further, 

the registrant 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. 

DATES: The cancellations are effective 

February 24, 2010.

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 November 25, 2009 

Federal Register Notice announcing the 

Agency’s receipt of the request for 

voluntary cancellation of products listed 

in Table 1. 

IV. Cancellation Order 

Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA 

hereby approves the requested 

cancellation of difenzoquat registrations 

identified in Table 1 of Unit II. 

Accordingly, the Agency orders that the 

product registrations identified in Table 

1 of Unit II are hereby canceled. 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 considered 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 Administrator may approve such a 

request. 

VI. Provisions for Disposition of 

Existing Stocks 

EPA’s existing stocks policy (56 FR 

29362) provides that: ‘‘If a registrant 

requests to voluntarily cancel a 

registration where the Agency has 

identified no particular risk concerns, 

the registrant has complied with all 

applicable conditions of reregistration, 

conditional registration, and data call 

ins, and the registration is not subject to 

a Registration Standard, Label 

Improvement Program, or reregistration 

decision, the Agency will generally 

permit a registrant to sell or distribute 

existing stocks for 1-year after the 

cancellation request was received. 

Persons other than registrants will 

generally be allowed to sell, distribute, 

or use existing stocks until such stocks 

are exhausted.’’ 

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 cancellation action. 

The effective date of this cancellation is 

February 24, 2010. The cancellation 

order that is the subject of this Notice 

includes the following existing stock 

provisions: 

The registrant may sell and distribute 

existing stocks of products listed in 

Table 1 of Unit II until December 31, 

2010. Persons other than the registrant 

may sell and distribute existing stocks 

of products listed in Table 1 until 

exhausted. Use of the products listed in 

Table 1 may continue until existing 

stocks are exhausted, provided that such 

use is consistent with the terms of the 

previously approved labeling on, or that 

accompanied, the canceled products.
