Carbofuran; Product Cancellation 

Order 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

order for the cancellation of some 

registrations and termination of certain 

uses, voluntarily requested by the 

registrant and accepted by the Agency, 

of products containing the pesticide 

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

the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and 

Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended. 

This cancellation order follows a 

December 19, 2008 (73 FR 77690; FRL– 

8389–4) Federal Register Notice of 

Receipt of Request from the carbofuran 

registrant to voluntarily cancel some 

registrations and terminate uses of 

certain end-use products containing the 

pesticide carbofuran. These are not the 

last carbofuran products registered for 

use in the United States. In the 

December 19, 2008 notice, EPA 

indicated that it would issue an order 

implementing the cancellations and 

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 

registrant withdrew their request within 

this period. The Agency received two 

anonymous comments on the notice, but 

neither merited further review of the 

requests. Further, the registrant did not 

withdraw their request, but submitted a 

letter clarifying the product registrations 

that they intended to cancel. 

Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this 

notice a cancellation order granting the 

requested cancellations and use 

terminations. Any distribution, sale, or 

use of the carbofuran 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 

March 18, 2009.
