Methyl Bromide; Cancellation Order for 

Registration Amendments To 

Terminate Certain Soil Uses 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

order for the amendments to terminate 

soil uses, voluntarily requested by the 

registrants and accepted by the Agency, 

of products containing methyl bromide, 

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

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA), as amended. This 

cancellation order follows a February 9, 

2011, Federal Register Notice of Receipt 

of Requests from the registrants listed in 

Table 2 of Unit II to voluntarily amend 

to terminate uses of these product 

registrations. These are not the last 

products containing this pesticide 

registered for use in the United States. 

In that 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. Further, the registrants 

did not withdraw their requests. These 

amendments do not affect post-harvest 

fumigant uses. 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 amendments are effective 

May 20, 2011.

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 February 9, 2011,

receipt of the requests for voluntary 

amendments to delete uses of products 

listed in Table 1A and Table 1B of Unit

IV. Cancellation Order 

Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA

the Agency hereby orders that the 

product registrations identified in Table 

1A and Table 1B of Unit II. are amended 

to terminate the affected uses. The 

effective date of the amendment of 

methyl bromide products that include 

soil uses other than uses that meet the 

definition of a ‘‘critical use,’’ a 

‘‘quarantine application,’’ or a ‘‘preshipment application;’’ caneberries; 

fresh market tomatoes grown in 

California; fresh market peppers grown 

in California; Vidalia onions grown in 

Georgia; ginger grown in Hawaii; golf 

courses and athletic/recreational fields 

for resurfacing/replanting of turf; and

jlentini on DSK4TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
29240 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 98 / Friday, May 20, 2011 / Notices 

amendment of methyl bromide products 

that include the non-CUE/QPS use on 

fresh market tomatoes (CA), fresh 

market peppers (CA), Vidalia onions 

(GA), and ginger (HI) is December 31, 

2012. The effective date of the 

amendment of methyl bromide products 

that includes the non-CUE/QPS use for 

resurfacing/replanting turf and sod on 

golf courses and athletic/recreational

effective date of the amendment of 

methyl bromide products that include 

the non-CUE/QPS use on caneberry or 

tobacco seedling tray uses is December 

31, 2014. The effective date of the 

amendment listed in Table 1B is May 

20, 2011. These amendments do not 

affect post-harvest fumigant uses of 

methyl bromide. Any distribution, sale, 

or use of existing stocks of the products 

identified in Table 1A and Table 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

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 February 9, 2011. The comment 

period closed on March 11, 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. 

A. For All Products Listed in Table 1A 

in Unit II 

1. All sale or distribution of existing 

stocks of methyl bromide products that 

include soil uses other than uses that 

meet the definition of a ‘‘critical use,’’ a 

‘‘quarantine application,’’ or a ‘‘preshipment application;’’ caneberries; 

fresh market tomatoes grown in 

California; fresh market peppers grown 

in California; Vidalia onions grown in 

Georgia; ginger grown in Hawaii; golf 

courses and athletic/recreational fields 

for resurfacing/replanting of turf; and 

treatment of tobacco seedling trays is 

prohibited after publication of the 

cancellation order, unless that sale or 

distribution is solely for the purpose of 

facilitating disposal or export of the 

product. 

Existing stocks may be used until 

those stocks are exhausted, provided 

that such use complies with the EPAapproved label and labeling of the 

product. 

2. Existing stocks of methyl bromide 

products that include the non-CUE/QPS 

use on fresh market tomatoes (CA), fresh 

market peppers (CA), Vidalia onions 

(GA), and ginger (HI) may be sold and 

distributed for 120 days after the

users may continue to use existing 

stocks of such products for production 

of fresh market tomatoes (CA), fresh 

market peppers (CA), Vidalia onions 

(GA), and ginger (HI) until those 

existing stocks are exhausted, provided 

that no later than August 31, 2012, each 

registrant has submitted for each of the 

registrant’s products labeled for the 

fresh market tomatoes (CA), fresh 

market peppers (CA), Vidalia onions 

(GA), and ginger (HI) uses, an 

application for amended registration to 

revise the approved labeling for those 

products to delete any language 

allowing use of the product for any of 

those uses. For any product that does 

not meet this condition, EPA may issue 

an amended order that prohibits sale 

and distribution and use of existing 

stocks as of the effective date of 

cancellation. 

3. Existing stocks of methyl bromide 

products that include the non-CUE/QPS 

use on golf courses and athletic/ 

recreational fields uses may be sold and

days after December 31, 2013); and 

users may continue to use existing 

stocks of such products for resurfacing/ 

replanting turf and sod on golf courses 

and athletic/recreational fields until 

those existing stocks are exhausted, 

provided that no later than August 31, 

2013, each registrant has submitted for 

each of the registrant’s products labeled 

for the golf course and athletic/ 

recreational field uses, an application 

for amended registration to revise the 

approved labeling for those products to 

delete any language allowing use of the 

product for any of those uses. For any 

product that does not meet this 

condition, EPA may issue an amended 

order that prohibits sale and 

distribution and use of existing stocks as 

of the effective date of cancellation. 

4. Existing stocks of methyl bromide 

products that include the non-CUE/QPS 

use on caneberry or tobacco seedling 

tray uses may be sold and distributed 

for 120 days after the effective date of 

cancellation (i.e., 120 days after

later than August 31, 2014, each 

registrant has submitted for each of the 

registrant’s products labeled for the 

caneberry or tobacco seedling tray uses, 

an application for amended registration 

to revise the approved labeling for those 

products to delete any language 

allowing use of the product for any of 

those uses. For any product that does 

not meet this condition, EPA may issue 

an amended order that prohibits sale 

and distribution and use of existing 

stocks as of the effective date of 

cancellation. 

B. For the Product Listed in Table 1B in 

Unit II 

All sale or distribution by the 

registrant of existing stocks is prohibited 

after publication of the cancellation 

order, unless that sale or distribution is 

solely for the purpose of facilitating 

disposal or export of the product. 

Existing stocks may be sold and 

distributed by persons other than the 

registrant for 6 months from the date of 

the cancellation order. 

Existing stocks may be used until 

those stocks are exhausted, provided 

that such use complies with the EPAapproved label and labeling of the 

product.
