Any distribution, sale or use of 

existing stock of the products identified

inconsistent with any of the Provisions

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 

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 cancellation order issued in this 

notice includes the following existing 

stock provisions. Bayer (Bayer 

CropScience, Bayer Environmental 

Science, and Bayer Advanced) may sell 

and distribute existing stocks of EPA 

Reg. Nos. 264–725, 264–729, 264–734, 

264–741, 264–744, 264–1020, 264–1021, 

and 432–1286 until December 31, 2010.

labeling on, or that accompanied, the 

canceled products. The foregoing 

applies to all products in Table 1, both 

State-registered and federally-registered 

products.
