In the April 28, 2022, notice, EPA indicated that it would issue an order implementing the cancellations, 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 received seven comments on the notice regarding the registrations containing the ingredient chlorpyrifos. The chlorpyrifos registrations are not included in this cancellation order and have been addressed in a separate order. Registrants did not withdraw their requests. Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this cancellation order granting the requested cancellations shown in this cancellation order. 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.

order, published in the Federal Register of August 31, 2022 (87 FR

[[Page 56413]]
Agency's receipt of the requests for voluntary cancellations of all
other products listed in this cancellation order in Table 1 and Table
1A of Unit II.
IV. Cancellation Order
Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f) (7 U.S.C. 136d(f)), EPA hereby
approves the requested cancellations of the registrations identified in
Table 1 and Table 1A of Unit II. Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders
that the product registrations identified in Table 1 and Table 1A of
Unit II, are canceled. The effective date of the cancellation listed in
Table 1A of Unit II, is effective March 3, 2022. The effective date of
the cancellations in Table 1 of Unit II, that are the subject of this
notice is September 14, 2022. Any distribution, sale, or use of
existing stocks of the products identified in Table 1 and Table 1A 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?
FIFRA section 6(f)(1) (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 April 28, 2022 (87 FR 25256) (FRL-9723-01-
OCSPP). The comment period closed on May 31, 2022.
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 existing stocks provisions for the products
subject to this order are as follows.
For the registration MT-120005, listed in Table 1A of Unit II, the
registrant requested the effective date of cancellation to be March 3,
2022. The registrant may continue to sell and distribute existing
stocks of the product listed in Table 1A of Unit II, until March 3,
2023. Thereafter, the registrant is prohibited from selling or
distributing the product listed in Table 1A of Unit II, except for
export in accordance with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), or proper
disposal.
The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks
of the products listed in Table 1 of Unit II, until September 14, 2023,
which is 1 year after the publication of the Cancellation Order in the
Federal Register. Thereafter, the registrants are prohibited from
selling or distributing products listed in Table 1 of Unit II, except
for export in accordance with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o), or
proper disposal.
Persons other than the registrants may sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks of products listed in Table 1 and Table 1A of Unit II,
until existing stocks are exhausted, provided that such sale,
distribution, or use is consistent with the terms of the previously
approved labeling on, or that accompanied, the cancelled products.
