                         Notice of Receipt of Requests from the registrants listed in Table 3 of Unit II, to voluntarily cancel and/or amend to terminate uses of certain product registrations. In the October 16, 2023, notice, EPA indicated that it would issue an order implementing the cancellations and/or 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.

Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this notice a cancellation order granting the requested cancellations and/or amendments to terminate 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 cancellations and/or amendments are effective December 27, 2023.

 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 
                    **Federal Register**
                     notice of October 16, 2023 (88 FR 71356) (FRL-11443-01-OCSPP) announcing the Agency's receipt of the requests for voluntary cancellations and/or amendments to terminate uses of products listed in Table 1, Table 1A and Table 2 of Unit II. IV. Cancellation Order Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)), EPA hereby approves the requested cancellations and/or amendments to terminate uses of certain product registrations identified in Table 1, Table 1A and Table 2 of Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the product registrations identified in Table 1, Table 1A and Table 2 of Unit II, are canceled and/or amended to terminate the affected uses. The effective date of the cancellations that are subject of this notice is [INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE 
                    **Federal Register**
                    ]. Any distribution, sale, or use of existing stocks of the products identified in Table 1, Table 1A and Table 2 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 (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)(1)) 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 October 16, 2023 (88 FR 71356) (FRL-11443-01-OCSPP). The comment period closed on November 15, 2023. 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. For: 5481-490 For 581-490, listed in Table 1A of Unit II, the registrant requested only 6-months after the effective date of the cancellation to sell existing stocks, which will be the date of publication of the cancellation order in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . The registrant may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks of the product listed in Table 1A until June 27, 2024, which is 6 months after publication of this cancellation order in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . Thereafter, the registrant will be prohibited from selling or distributing the products identified in Table 1A of Unit II, except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal. For all other voluntary cancellations listed in Table 1 of Unit II, the registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks of products listed in Table 1 of Unit II, until December 27, 2024, which is 1 year after 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 II, except for export in accordance with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal. Now that EPA has approved product labels reflecting the requested amendments to terminate uses, registrants are permitted to sell or distribute products listed in Table 2 of Unit II, under the previously approved labeling until June 27, 2025, a period of 18 months after publication of the cancellation order in this 
                    **Federal Register**
                    , unless other restrictions have been imposed. Thereafter, registrants will be prohibited from selling or distributing the products whose labels include the terminated uses identified in Table 2 of Unit II, except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 or for proper disposal. Persons other than the registrant may sell, distribute, or use existing stocks of canceled products and/or products whose labels include the terminated uses until supplies 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 and/or terminated uses. *Authority:*7 U.S.C. 136
