[EPA–HQ–OPP–2010–0014; FRL–9390–4] 

Product Cancellation Order for Certain 

Pesticide Registrations 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

order for the cancellations, voluntarily 

requested by the registrants and 

accepted by the Agency, of the products 

listed in Table 1a and 1b of Unit II. 

pursuant to the Federal Insecticide, 

Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act 

(FIFRA). This cancellation order follows 

a November 28, 2012 Federal Register 

Notice of Receipt of Requests from the 

registrants listed in Table 2 of Unit II. 

to voluntarily cancel these product 

registrations. In the November 28, 2013 

notice, EPA indicated that it would 

issue an order implementing the 

cancellations, unless the Agency 

received substantive comments within 

the 180-day comment period that would 

merit its further review of these 

requests, or unless the registrants 

withdrew their requests. The Agency 

received one comment on the notice but 

it did not merit its further review of the 

request. Further, the registrants did not 

withdraw their requests. Accordingly, 

EPA hereby issues in this notice a 

cancellation order granting the 

requested cancellations. This order 

includes the last resmethrin product 

registrations in the United States. 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 

June 26, 2013.

III. Summary of Public Comments 

Received and Agency Response to 

Comments 

The Agency received one comment, 

but the Agency does not believe that the 

comment submitted during the 

comment period merits further review 

or a denial of the request for voluntary 

cancellation. 

IV. Cancellation Order 

Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA 

hereby approves the requested 

cancellations of the registrations 

identified in Table 1a and 1b of Unit II. 

Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders 

that the product registrations identified 

in Table 1a and 1b of Unit II. are 

canceled. The effective date of the 

cancellations that are the subject of this 

notice is June 26, 2013. Any 

distribution, sale, or use of existing 

stocks of the products identified in 

Table 1a and 1b 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 

in the Federal Register of November 28, 

2012 (77 FR 70998) (FRL–9370–3). The 

comment period closed on May 28, 

2013. 

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 existing stocks provisions for the 

products subject to this order are as 

follows. 

A. For All Products Listed in Table 1a 

in Unit II 

The registrants may continue to sell 

and distribute existing stocks of 

products listed in Table 1a of Unit II. 

until June 26, 2014, which is 1-year after 

the publication of the Cancellation 

Order in the Federal Register. 

Thereafter, the registrants are prohibited 

from selling or distributing products 

listed in Table 1a, except for export in 

accordance with FIFRA section 17, or 

proper disposal. Persons other than the 

registrants may sell, distribute, or use 

existing stocks of products listed in 

Table 1a of Unit II. until existing 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 

canceled products. 

B. For All Products Listed in Table 1b 

in Unit II 

After December 31, 2015, registrants 

will be prohibited from selling, or 

distributing, existing stocks of products, 

containing resmethrin labeled for all 

uses. After December 31, 2015, persons 

other than the registrants will be 

allowed to sell, distribute, or use 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

38328 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 123 / Wednesday, June 26, 2013 / Notices

Comment; Announcement of 

Registration Review Case Closures 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: With this document, EPA is 

opening the public comment period for 

several registration reviews. Registration 

review is EPA’s periodic review of 

pesticide registrations to ensure that 

each pesticide continues to satisfy the 

statutory standard for registration, that 

is, the pesticide can perform its 

intended function without unreasonable 

adverse effects on human health or the 

environment. Registration review 

dockets contain information that will 

assist the public in understanding the 

types of information and issues that the 

Agency may consider during the course 

of registration reviews. Through this 

program, EPA is ensuring that each 

pesticide’s registration is based on 

current scientific and other knowledge, 

including its effects on human health 

and the environment. This document 

also announces the registration review 

case closures for the pesticides 

oxydemeton-methyl (ODM) (case #0258) 

and resmethrin (case #0421), and the 

availability of their respective Case 

Closure Documents. The cancellation of 

all ODM registrations will become 

effective on December 31, 2014. The 

cancellation of all resmethrin 

registrations will become effective 

December 31, 2015. These case closures 

are being announced herein with no 

comment period. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before August 26, 2013.

This action is directed to the public 

in general, and may be of interest to a 

wide range of stakeholders including 

environmental, human health, 

farmworker, and agricultural advocates; 

the chemical industry; pesticide users; 

and members of the public interested in

achieve environmental justice, the fair 

treatment and meaningful involvement 

of any group, including minority and/or 

low income populations, in the 

development, implementation, and 

enforcement of environmental laws, 

regulations, and policies. To help 

address potential environmental justice 

issues, the Agency seeks information on 

any groups or segments of the 

population who, as a result of their 

location, cultural practices, or other 

factors, may have atypical or 

disproportionately high and adverse 

human health impacts or environmental 

effects from exposure to the pesticide(s) 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population.
