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.

III. Summary of Public Comments Received and Agency Response to 
Comments

    The Agency received seven comments on the notice regarding the 
registrations containing the ingredient chlorpyrifos. The chlorpyrifos 
registrations have been removed from this cancellation order. The 
cancellation order and comments received for the registrations 
containing the ingredient chlorpyrifos can be found in the cancellation 
order, published in the Federal Register of August 31, 2022 (87 FR

EPA received no comments in response to the April 28, 2022, Federal 
Register notice announcing the

[[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.
    Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.

    Dated: September 8, 2022.

Acting Director, Registration Division, Office of Pesticide Programs.
