SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. Does this Action Apply to Me? 

This action is directed to the public 

in general, and may be of interest to a 

wide range of stakeholders including 

environmental, human health, and 

agricultural advocates; the chemical 

industry; pesticide users; and members 

of the public interested in the sale, 

distribution, or use of pesticides. Since 

others also may be interested, the 

Agency has not attempted to describe all 

the specific entities that may be affected 

by this action. If you have any questions 

regarding the applicability of this action 

to a particular entity, consult the 

appropriate person listed under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. 

B. What Should I Consider as I Prepare 

My Comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark 

the part or all of the information that 

you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD-ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD-ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD-ROM the specific information that is 

claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When submitting comments, remember 

to: 

i. Identify the document by docket ID 

number and other identifying 

information (subject heading, Federal 

Register date and page number). 

ii. Follow directions. The Agency may 

ask you to respond to specific questions 

or organize comments by referencing a 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

or section number. 

iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; 

suggest alternatives and substitute 

language for your requested changes. 

iv. Describe any assumptions and 

provide any technical information and/ 

or data that you used. 

v. If you estimate potential costs or 

burdens, explain how you arrived at 

your estimate in sufficient detail to 

allow for it to be reproduced. 

vi. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns and suggest 

alternatives. 

vii. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible, avoiding the use of profanity 

or personal threats. 

viii. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the comment period 

deadline identified. 

II. Background on the Receipt of 

Requests to Cancel and Amend 

Registrations to Delete Uses 

This notice announces receipt by EPA 

of requests from registrants to cancel 1 

and amend to terminate uses of 29 

product registrations. Registrants 

requested EPA to cancel affected 

product registrations and amend to 

terminate uses of pesticide product 

registrations identified in Tables 1 and 

2 of Unit III. 

III. What Action is the Agency Taking? 

This notice announces receipt by EPA 

of requests from 8 registrants to cancel 

and amend to terminate uses of a total 

of 30 product registrations. The affected 

products and the registrants making the 

requests are identified in Tables 1–3 of 

this unit. 

Under section 6(f)(1)(A) of FIFRA, 

registrants may request, at any time, that 

their pesticide registrations be canceled 

or amended to terminate one or more 

pesticide uses. Section 6(f)(1)(B) of 

FIFRA requires that before acting on a 

request for voluntary cancellation, EPA 

must provide a 30–day public comment 

period on the request for voluntary 

cancellation or use termination. In 

addition, section 6(f)(1)(C) of FIFRA 

requires that EPA provide a 180–day 

comment period on a request for 

voluntary cancellation or termination of 

any minor agricultural use before 

granting the request, unless: 

1. The registrants request a waiver of 

the comment period, or 

2. The Administrator determines that 

continued use of the pesticide would 

pose an unreasonable adverse effect on 

the environment. 

A request to waive the 180–day 

comment period has been received for 

all registrations included in this notice: 

000264–00330, 000264–00426, 000264–

IV. 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. 

V. Procedures for Withdrawal of 

Request and Considerations for 

Reregistration 

Registrants who choose to withdraw a 

request for cancellation must submit 

such withdrawal in writing to the 

appropriate person listed under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, 

postmarked before November 7, 2008. 

This written withdrawal of the request 

for cancellation will apply only to the 

applicable FIFRA section 6(f)(1) request 

listed in this notice. If the products(s) 

have been subject to a previous 

cancellation action, the effective date of 

cancellation and all other provisions of 

any earlier cancellation action are 

controlling. 

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. 

A. Methamidophos 

On April 7, 2002, EPA signed the 

Interim Reregistration Eligibility 

Decision (IRED) for methamidophos. 

That IRED specified risk mitigation 

measures including: ‘‘Implement a 5– 

year phase out of the use on cotton.’’ In 

accordance with the IRED, Bayer 

CropScience has submitted a request to 

voluntarily terminate all cotton uses of 

the methamidophos products listed in 

Table 2 of Unit III. effective September 

30, 2009. 

Provisions for the sale, disposition, 

and use of existing stocks of 

methamidophos products include the 

following: 

1. All sale or distribution by the 

registrant of existing stocks labeled for 

use on cotton is prohibited after 

September 30, 2009, unless that sale or 

distribution is solely for the purpose of 

facilitating disposal or export of the 

product. 

2. Existing stocks labeled for use on 

cotton may be sold and distributed by 

persons other than the registrant until 

July 31, 2010. 

3. Existing stocks labeled for use on 

cotton may be used until September 30, 

2010, provided that such use complies 

with the EPA-approved label and 

labeling of the product. 

B. Other Chemicals Addressed in this 

Order 

If the request for voluntary 

cancellation and use terminations is 

granted as discussed in this unit, the 

Agency intends to issue a cancellation 

order that will allow 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. The 

order will specifically prohibit any use 

of existing stocks that is not consistent 

with such previously approved labeling. 

If, as the Agency currently intends, the 

final cancellation order contains the 

existing stocks provision just described, 

the order will be sent only to the 

affected registrants of the canceled 

products. If the Agency determines that 


jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
58962 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 196 / Wednesday, October 8, 2008 / Notices 

the final cancellation order should 

contain existing stocks provisions 

different than the ones just described, 

the Agency will publish the cancellation 

order in the Federal Register.
