Abstract

This notice announces EPA's order for the cancellations and/or amendments to terminate uses, voluntarily requested by the registrants and accepted by the Agency, of the products listed in Tables 1 and 2 of Unit II, pursuant to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). This cancellation/use termination order follows a June 23, 2021 Federal Register Notice of Receipt of Requests from the registrants listed in Table 3 of Unit II to voluntarily cancel their registrations of certain products containing the pesticides atrazine and simazine, and/or to amend their atrazine, simazine, or malathion product registrations to terminate one or more uses. In the June 23, 2021 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. 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 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.

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 June 23, 2021 Federal Register notice (86 FR 32922) 
announcing the Agency's receipt of the requests for voluntary 
cancellations and/or amendments to terminate uses of products listed in 
Tables 1 and 2 of Unit II.

IV. Cancellation Order

    Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)), EPA hereby 
approves the requested cancellations and/or amendments to terminate 
uses of the registrations identified in Tables 1 and 2 of Unit II. 
Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the product registrations 
identified in Tables 1 and 2 of Unit II are canceled and/or amended to 
terminate the affected uses. The effective date of the cancellations 
and amendments listed in Tables 1 and 2 that are the subject of this 
notice is November 1, 2021. Any distribution, sale, or use of existing 
stocks of the products identified in Tables 1 and 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 June 
23, 2021 (86 FR 32922) (FRL-10025-04). The comment period closed on 
July 23, 2021.

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 and/or use termination action. The existing stocks 
provisions for the products subject to this order are as follows.
    The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks 
of products listed in Table 1 of Unit II until November 1, 2022, which 
is 1 year after the publication of the cancellation/use termination 
order in the Federal Register. Thereafter, the registrants are 
prohibited from selling or distributing products listed in Table 1, 
except for export in accordance with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), 
or proper disposal.
    EPA has recently approved or will shortly approve product labels 
reflecting the requested amendments to terminate uses listed in Table 2 
of Unit II and is allowing registrants to continue to sell or 
distribute products under the previously approved labeling for a period 
of 18 months from the label approval date. 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. 
Amended product labels can be viewed on EPA's Pesticide Product Label 
System (see <a href="https://www.epa.gov/pesticide-labels/pesticide-product-label-system-ppls-more-information">https://www.epa.gov/pesticide-labels/pesticide-product-label-system-ppls-more-information</a>).
    Persons other than the registrants may sell, distribute, or use 
existing stocks of the canceled products and products whose labels 
include the terminated uses listed in Tables 1 and 2, respectively, of 
Unit II until existing supplies are exhausted, provided that such sale, 
distribution, or use is

[[Page 60238]]

consistent with the terms of the previously approved labeling on, or 
that accompanied, the canceled products and products whose labels 
include the terminated uses.
    Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.

    Dated: October 26, 2021.

Director, Pesticide Re-Evaluation Division, Office of Pesticide 
Programs.
