Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 51 / Wednesday, March 18, 2009 / Notices 11553 

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 

stocks provisions. 

For the products identified or 

referenced in Tables 1A, 1B, and 1C of 

Unit II. the registrant will be allowed to 

sell and distribute the subject products 

through the effective date of this 

cancellation order, March 18, 2009. In 

addition, existing stocks of carbofuran 

products may be sold or used until they 

are depleted, or until the effective date 

for the revocation of the associated 

tolerances. 

Consistent with EPA’s prior 

determinations, the Agency continues to 

intend to allow use on artichokes 

through December 31, 2010. No 

comments were received on whether 

there are sufficient stocks of product to 

allow for this use, and the Agency 

therefore concludes that no additional 

carbofuran production will be needed to 

address this use.The existing stocks 

provision included in a Federal Register 

notice published December 10, 2008, 

(73 FR 75105; FRL–8393–7) regarding 

several carbofuran products is 

superseded by the existing stocks 

provisions in this cancellation order.

Carbaryl; Amending Product 

Registrations to Terminate Uses and 

Eliminate Certain Application Methods 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

order for the amendments to terminate 

uses and eliminate certain application 

methods, voluntarily requested by the 

registrants and accepted by the Agency, 

of products containing the pesticide 

carbaryl, pursuant to section 6(f)(1) of 

the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and 

Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended. 

This order follows two Federal Register 

Notices of Receipt of Requests dated 

August 20, 2008 and October 15, 2008, 

respectively, from the carbaryl 

registrants to voluntarily terminate 

certain uses of and eliminate certain 

application methods for their carbaryl 

product registrations. These are not the 

last carbaryl products registered for use 

in the United States. In the August 20 

and October 15, 2008 Notices, 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 within this 

period. The Agency received five 

comments on the notice but none 

merited further review of the requests. 

Further, the registrants did not 

withdraw their requests. Accordingly, 

EPA hereby issues in this notice an 

order granting the requested 

amendments to terminate uses and 

eliminate certain application methods. 

Any distribution, sale, or use of the 

carbaryl products subject to this order is 

permitted only in accordance with the 

terms of this order, including any 

existing stocks provisions. 

DATES: The termination of uses and 

elimination of application methods for 

carbaryl products specified in this 

notice are effective April 17, 2009.

III. Summary of Public Comments 

Received and Agency Response to 

Comments 

EPA received four public comments 

on the August 20, 2008 6(f) Notice (73 

FR 49184) and one comment on the 

October 15 6(f) Notice (73 FR 61121), 

from Jan Meneley of AgBio Inc., Dr. 

Steven Booth of Willapa Bay/Grays 

Harbor Oyster Grower Association, C. 

Weeber, a private citizen, and from two 

anonymous private citizens. The 

comment from C. Weeber requested that 

EPA evaluate carbaryl use on pine trees 

in residential areas, which is not one of 

the uses being deleted, and is therefore 

not relevant to this action. The comment 

from Steven Booth focused on the 

importance of a special local need 

registration of carbaryl for control of 

burrowing shrimp in oyster beds in 

Willapa Bay, WA, which is also not one 

of the registrations being amended, and 

is therefore not relevant to this action. 

The comments received from private 

citizens requested cancellation of all 

carbaryl uses, including use to control 

Mountain Pine Beetle in Colorado, and 

further testing of carbaryl. These 

commenters do not, however, object to 

the deletion of uses or elimination of 

application methods that are the subject 

of this order. Nor do these commenters 

provide information that would lead the 

Agency to further review or deny the 

requests. Accordingly, the Agency does 

not believe that the comments 

submitted during the comment period 

merit further review or a denial of the 

requests for amendments to terminate 

uses of and eliminate certain 

application methods for carbaryl 

products. 

IV. Cancellation Order 

Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA 

hereby approves the requested 

amendments to terminate uses of and 

eliminate certain application methods 

for carbaryl registrations identified in 

Table 1 of Unit II. Accordingly, the 

Agency orders that the carbaryl product 

registrations identified in Tables 1 of 

Unit II. are hereby amended to terminate 

the affected uses and application 

methods. Any distribution, sale, or use 

of existing stocks of the products 

identified in Table 1 of Unit II. in a 

manner inconsistent with any of the 

Provisions for Disposition of Existing 

Stocks set 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 or 

termination action. The existing stocks 

provisions of this order terminating uses 

and eliminating certain application 

methods are as follows and are effective 

immediately. 

Provided that these stocks bear labels 

previously approved by EPA, registrants 

may sell and distribute existing stocks 

of the affected products for 18 months 

from the effective date of this order, 

with the exception of Scotts Ortho 

Business Group and Matson LLC, who 

may sell and distribute existing stocks 

of EPA Registration Numbers 239–2514 

and 8119–5, respectively, in Table 1 of 

Unit II. for 24 months from the effective 

date of this order. Thereafter the 

distribution and sale of existing stocks 

by registrants of any of the products 

listed in Table 1 that bear the 

terminated uses or application methods 

will not be lawful under FIFRA, except 

for the purposes of shipping such stocks 

for export consistent with section 17 of 

FIFRA or for proper disposal. This order 

allows persons other than the registrant 

to continue to sell and/or use existing 

stocks of canceled products until such 

stocks are exhausted, provided that such 

use is consistent with the terms of the 

previously approved labeling on, or that 

accompanied, the canceled product. 

This order specifically prohibits any use 

of existing stocks that is not consistent 

with such previously approved labeling.

Public Water System Supervision 

Program Revision for the State of 

Arkansas 

AGENCY: United States Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of proposed approval. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that 

the State of Arkansas is revising its 

approved Public Water System 

Supervision Program adopting 

regulations for the Ground Water Rule 

(GWR), promulgated by EPA on 

November 26, 2006. The GWR will 

provide for increased protection against 

microbial pathogens in public water 

systems that use ground water sources. 

EPA has determined that the proposed 

GWR revisions are no less stringent than 

the corresponding Federal regulations.
