Pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB); 

Amendments to Terminate Uses 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

order for the amendments to terminate 

uses, voluntarily requested by the 

registrants and accepted by the Agency, 

of certain products containing the 

pesticide PCNB, pursuant to section 

6(f)(1) of the Federal Insecticide, 

Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act 

(FIFRA), as amended. This order follows 

a March 30, 2009 Federal Register 

Notice of Receipt of Requests from the 

PCNB registrants to amend voluntarily 

certain of their PCNB product 

registrations. Specifically, the 

registrants requested to amend their 

registrations to terminate the following 

uses of PCNB: Golf course roughs; 

residential sites including lawns, yards, 

and ornamental plants and gardens 

around homes and apartments; grounds 

around day care facilities; school yards; 

parks (except industrial parks); 

playgrounds; and athletic fields (except 

professional and college fields). In the 

March 30, 2009 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 within this 

period. The Agency did not receive any 

comments on the notice. Further, the 

registrants did not withdraw their 

requests. Accordingly, EPA hereby 

issues in this notice an order granting 

the requested amendments to terminate 

certain uses. Any distribution, sale, or 

use of the PCNB products subject to this 

order is permitted only in accordance 

with the terms of this order, including 

any existing stocks provisions. 

DATES: The cancellations are effective 

July 15, 2009.

II. What Action is the Agency Taking? 

This notice announces the 

amendments to terminate uses, as 

requested by registrants (Amvac 

Chemical Corporation and Chemtura 

Corporation), of certain of their end-use 

and manufacturing-use PCNB products 

registered under section 3 of FIFRA. 

These registrations are listed in 

sequence by registration number in 

Table 1 of this unit. Since the registrants 

submitted their initial 6(f)(1) requests to 

amend their registrations to terminate 

uses, Chemtura requested the transfer of 

most of its PCNB registrations to Amvac, 

including all of those PCNB 

registrations for which Chemtura had 

requested amendment. The transfer was 

approved on April 23, 2009. Therefore, 

Amvac will be responsible for amending 

all of the following registrations in 

accordance with this order. Former and 

current EPA registration numbers are 

shown for all affected products.

IV. Order Terminating Certain PCNB 

Uses 

Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA 

hereby approves the requested 

amendments to terminate uses of the 

PCNB registrations identified in Table 1 

of Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency 

orders that the PCNB product 

registrations identified in Table 1 of 

Unit II. are hereby amended to terminate 

the following uses: Golf course roughs; 

residential sites including lawns, yards, 

and ornamental plants and gardens 

around homes and apartments; grounds 

around day care facilities; school yards; 

parks (except industrial parks); 

playgrounds; and athletic fields (except 

professional and college fields). 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 action. 

The cancellation order issued in this 

notice includes the following existing 

stocks provisions. 

Amvac Corporation will be permitted 

to sell or distribute existing stocks of the 

manufacturing-use products referenced 

in Table 1 of Unit II., with labels that 

are not revised per the requested 

amendments for termination of uses 

(i.e., ‘‘previously approved labeling’’), 

until 6 months after the effective date of 

this order. Persons other than Amvac 

Corporation may continue to use 

existing stocks of the manufacturing-use 

products referenced in Table 1 of Unit 

II., with previously approved labeling, 

for formulation into end-use products 

until 18 months after the effective date 

of this order, provided such use is 

consistent with the previously approved 

labeling for that product. 

Amvac Corporation will be permitted 

to sell or distribute existing stocks of the 

end-use products referenced in Table 1 

of Unit II., with previously approved 

labeling, until 18 months after the 

effective date of this order. Persons 

other than Amvac Corporation may sell 

or distribute existing stocks of the enduse products referenced in Table 1 of 

Unit II., with previously approved 

labeling, until 18 months after the 

effective date of this order. Users will be 

allowed to use existing stocks of the 

affected PCNB end-use products with 

previously approved labeling until such 

stocks are exhausted, provided such use 

is in a manner consistent with the 

previously approved labeling for that 

product.

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

approval, under regulations for CrossMedia Electronic Reporting, of the State

programs to allow electronic reporting 

for certain of its EPA-authorized 

programs under title 40 of the CFR. 

DATES: EPA’s approval is effective on

EPA-authorized programs under 40 CFR 

parts 52, 60–63, 70, 123, 272, and 282;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

October 13, 2005, the final Cross-Media 

Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) 

was published in the Federal Register 

(70 FR 59848) and codified as part 3 of 

title 40 of the CFR. CROMERR 

establishes electronic reporting as an 

acceptable regulatory alternative to 

paper reporting and establishes 

requirements to assure that electronic 

documents are as legally dependable as 

their paper counterparts. Subpart D of 

CROMERR, requires that State, Tribal or 

local government agencies that receive, 

or wish to begin receiving, electronic 

reports under their EPA-authorized 

programs must apply to EPA for a 

revision or modification of those 

programs and get EPA approval. Subpart 

D provides standards for such approvals 

based on consideration of the electronic 

document receiving systems that the 

State, Tribe, or local government will 

use to implement the electronic 

reporting. Additionally, in § 3.1000(b) 

through (e) of 40 CFR part 3, subpart D 

provides special procedures for program 

revisions and modifications to allow 

electronic reporting, to be used at the 

option of the State, Tribe or local 

government in place of procedures 

available under existing programspecific authorization regulations. An 

application submitted under the subpart 

D procedures must show that the State, 

Tribe or local government has sufficient 

legal authority to implement the 

electronic reporting components of its 

authorized programs covered by the 

application and will use electronic 

document receiving systems that meet 

the applicable subpart D requirements. 

On October 2, 2008, the State of 

Indiana Department of Environmental 

Management (IDEM) submitted an 

application for its eAuth electronic 

document receiving System for revision 

or modification of EPA-authorized 

programs under 40 CFR parts 52, 60–63, 

70, 123, 142, 272, and 282. EPA 

reviewed IDEM’s request to revise/ 

modify its EPA-authorized programs 

and, based on this review, EPA 

determined the application met the 

standards for approval of authorized 

program revisions/modifications set out 

in 40 CFR part 3, subpart D. In 

accordance with 40 CFR 3.1000(d), this
