------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This cancellation order follows a notice of receipt of voluntary 
cancellation requests received from the registrants that issued in the 
Federal Register of March 12, 2015 (80 FR 12996) (FRL-9923-27). In the 
March 2015 document, 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 registrants withdrew their 
requests.

IV. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to Comments

    The comment period closed on April 13, 2015. EPA received three 
comments. The comments agreed with the product cancellations. For this 
reason, the Agency does not believe that the comments submitted during 
the comment period merit further review or a denial of the requests for 
voluntary cancellation.
    Further, the registrants did not withdraw their requests.

V. Cancellation Order

    Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)), EPA hereby 
approves the requested cancellations of the registrations identified in 
Table 1 of Unit III. Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the 
product registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit III. are canceled. 
The effective date of the cancellations that are the subject of this 
order is June 3, 2015. Any distribution, sale, or use of existing 
stocks of the products identified in Table 1 of Unit III. 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.

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 Products (069361-00030, 073801-00003, and 089118-00001)

    The registrants have indicated to the Agency via written response 
that there are no existing stocks because no production has ever 
occurred. Therefore, no existing stocks date is necessary. Registrants 
are prohibited from selling or distributing the existing stocks of 
products listed in Table 1 of Unit III., except for export consistent 
with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal. In 
addition, because no production has ever occurred, persons other than 
the registrants are prohibited from selling, distributing, or using the 
existing stocks.

B. For the Product (010163-00174)

    The registrant has indicated to the Agency via written response 
that they will not sell or distribute any existing stocks after 
December 31, 2014, and as of that date will no longer have any current 
stock. Therefore, no existing stocks date for the registrant is 
necessary. The registrant is prohibited from selling or distributing 
existing stocks of the product listed in Table 1 of Unit III., except 
for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for 
proper disposal. Persons other than the registrant may sell, 
distribute, or use the existing stocks until such 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 product.

C. For Products (059639-00028, 059639-00086, and 059639-00089)

    Since the notice in the Federal Register of March 12, 2015 (80 FR 
12996) (FRL-9923-27), EPA received clarification from the registrant 
which indicates that the manufacture and distribution for these 
products ended about 6 to 7 years ago. Therefore, no existing stocks 
date is necessary for the registrant. The registrant is prohibited from 
selling or distributing the existing stocks of products listed in Table 
1 of Unit III., except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 
U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal. In addition, because 6 to 7 years 
has passed, the Agency believes that existing stocks have been 
exhausted and no existing stocks date is necessary for persons other 
than the registrant. Persons other than the registrant are prohibited 
from selling, distributing, or using the existing stocks.

D. For All Other Products Identified in Table 1 of Unit III

    The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks 
of products listed in Table 1 of Unit III. until June 2, 2016, which is 
1 year after the publication of this Cancellation Order in the Federal 
Register. Thereafter, the registrants are prohibited from selling or 
distributing products listed in Table 1 of Unit III. except for export 
in accordance with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), or proper 
disposal. Persons other than the registrants may sell, distribute, or 
use existing stocks of products listed in Table 1 of Unit III. 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.

    Authority:  7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.

Programs.
