------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This cancellation order follows a notice of receipt of voluntary
cancellation requests received from the registrants that issued in the
Federal Register of March 12, 2015 (80 FR 12996) (FRL-9923-27). In the
March 2015 document, 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.

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

    The comment period closed on April 13, 2015. EPA received three
comments. The comments agreed with the product cancellations. For this
reason, the Agency does not believe that the comments submitted during
the comment period merit further review or a denial of the requests for
voluntary cancellation.
    Further, the registrants did not withdraw their requests.

V. 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 of Unit III. Accordingly, the Agency hereby orders that the
product registrations identified in Table 1 of Unit III. are canceled.
The effective date of the cancellations that are the subject of this
order is June 3, 2015. Any distribution, sale, or use of existing
stocks of the products identified in Table 1 of Unit III. 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.

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.

A. For Products<PHONE_NUMBER>0,<PHONE_NUMBER>3, and<PHONE_NUMBER>1)

    The registrants have indicated to the Agency via written response
that there are no existing stocks because no production has ever
occurred. Therefore, no existing stocks date is necessary. Registrants
are prohibited from selling or distributing the existing stocks of
products listed in Table 1 of Unit III., except for export consistent
with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal. In
addition, because no production has ever occurred, persons other than
the registrants are prohibited from selling, distributing, or using the
existing stocks.

B. For the Product<PHONE_NUMBER>4)

    The registrant has indicated to the Agency via written response
that they will not sell or distribute any existing stocks after
December 31, 2014, and as of that date will no longer have any current
stock. Therefore, no existing stocks date for the registrant is
necessary. The registrant is prohibited from selling or distributing
existing stocks of the product listed in Table 1 of Unit III., except
for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7 U.S.C. 136o) or for
proper disposal. Persons other than the registrant may sell,
distribute, or use the existing stocks until such 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
canceled product.

C. For Products<PHONE_NUMBER>8,<PHONE_NUMBER>6, and<PHONE_NUMBER>9)

    Since the notice in the Federal Register of March 12, 2015 (80 FR
12996) (FRL-9923-27), EPA received clarification from the registrant
which indicates that the manufacture and distribution for these
products ended about 6 to 7 years ago. Therefore, no existing stocks
date is necessary for the registrant. The registrant is prohibited from
selling or distributing the existing stocks of products listed in Table
1 of Unit III., except for export consistent with FIFRA section 17 (7
U.S.C. 136o) or for proper disposal. In addition, because 6 to 7 years
has passed, the Agency believes that existing stocks have been
exhausted and no existing stocks date is necessary for persons other
than the registrant. Persons other than the registrant are prohibited
from selling, distributing, or using the existing stocks.

D. For All Other Products Identified in Table 1 of Unit III

    The registrants may continue to sell and distribute existing stocks
of products listed in Table 1 of Unit III. until June 2, 2016, which is
1 year after the publication of this Cancellation Order in the Federal
Register. Thereafter, the registrants are prohibited from selling or
distributing products listed in Table 1 of Unit III. 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 of Unit III. 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 canceled products.

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

    Dated: May 14, 2015.

Programs.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-OPP-2010-0848; FRL-8881-4]

Notice of Intent To Suspend Certain Pesticide Registrations

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice, pursuant to section 6(f)(2) of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), announces a Notice
of Intent to Suspend issued by EPA pursuant to section 3(c)(2)(B) of
FIFRA. The Notice of Intent to Suspend was issued following the
Agency's issuance of a Data Call-In notice (DCI), which required the
registrant of the affected pesticide product containing a certain
pesticide active ingredient to take appropriate steps to secure certain
data, and following the registrant's failure to submit these data or to
take other appropriate steps to secure the required data. The subject
data were determined to be required to maintain in effect the existing
registration of the affected product. Failure to comply with the data
requirements of a DCI is a basis for suspension of the affected
registration under section 3(c)(2)(B) of FIFRA.

DATES: The Notice of Intent to Suspend notice will become a final and
effective suspension order automatically by operation of law 30 days
after the date of the registrant's receipt of the mailed Notice of
Intent to Suspend or 30 days after the date of publication of this
notice in the Federal Register (if the mailed Notice of Intent to
Suspend is returned to the Administrator as undeliverable, if delivery
is refused, or if the Administrator otherwise is unable to accomplish
delivery to the registrant after making reasonable efforts to do so),
unless during that time a timely and adequate request for a hearing is
made by a person adversely affected by the Notice of Intent to Suspend
or the registrant has satisfied the Administrator that the registrant
has complied fully with the requirements that served as a basis for the
Notice of Intent to Suspend. Unit IV. explains what must be done to
avoid suspension under this notice (i.e., how to request a hearing or
how to comply fully with the requirements that served as a basis for
the Notice of Intent to Suspend).

evaluation Division, Office of Pesticide Programs, Environmental
Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460-

IV. How to avoid suspension under this notice?

    1. You may avoid suspension under this notice if you or another
person adversely affected by this notice properly request a hearing
within 30 days of your receipt of the Notice of Intent to Suspend by
mail or, if you did not receive the notice that was sent to you via
USPS first class mail return receipt requested, then within 30 days
from the date of publication of this Federal Register notice (see
DATES). If you request a hearing, it will be conducted in accordance
with the requirements of section 6(d) of FIFRA and the Agency's
procedural regulations in 40 CFR part 164. Section 3(c)(2)(B) of FIFRA,
however, provides that the only allowable issues which may be addressed
at the hearing are whether you have failed to take the actions which
are the bases of this notice and whether the Agency's decision
regarding the disposition of existing stocks is consistent with FIFRA.
Therefore, no substantive allegation or legal argument concerning other
issues, including but not limited to the Agency's original decision to
require the submission of data or other information, the need for or
utility of any of the required data or other information or deadlines
imposed, any allegations of errors or unfairness in any proceedings
before an arbitrator, and the risks and benefits associated with
continued registration of the affected product, may be considered in
the proceeding. The Administrative Law Judge shall by order dismiss any
objections which have no bearing on the allowable issues which may be
considered in the proceeding. Section 3(c)(2)(B)(iv) of FIFRA provides
that any hearing must be held and a determination issued within 75 days
after receipt of a hearing request. This 75-day period may not be
extended unless all parties in the proceeding stipulate to such an
extension. If a hearing is properly requested, the Agency will issue a
final order at the conclusion of the hearing governing the suspension
of your product. A request for a hearing pursuant to this notice must:
     Include specific objections which pertain to the allowable
issues which may be heard at the hearing.
     Identify the registrations for which a hearing is
requested.
     Set forth all necessary supporting facts pertaining to any
of the objections which you have identified in your request for a
hearing.

    If a hearing is requested by any person other than the registrant,
that person must also state specifically why he/she asserts that he/she
would be adversely affected by the suspension action described in this
notice. Three copies of the request must be submitted to:
    Hearing Clerk, 1900, Environmental Protection Agency, 1200
Pennsylvania Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20460-0001.

An additional copy should be sent to the person who signed this notice.
The request must be received by the Hearing Clerk by the applicable 30-
day deadline as measured from your receipt of the Notice of Intent to
Suspend by mail or publication of this notice, as set forth in DATES
and in Unit IV.1., in order to be legally effective. The 30-day time
limit is established by FIFRA and cannot be extended for any reason.
Failure to meet the 30-day time limit will result in automatic
suspension of your registration by operation of law and, under such
circumstances, the suspension of the registration for your affected
product will be final and effective at the close of business on the
applicable 30-day deadline as measured from your receipt of the Notice
of Intent to Suspend by mail or publication of this notice, as set
forth in DATES and in Unit IV.1., and will not be subject to further
administrative review. The Agency's rules of practice at 40 CFR 164.7
forbid anyone who may take part in deciding this case, at any stage of
the proceeding, from discussing the merits of the proceeding ex parte
with any party or with any person who has been connected with the
preparation or presentation of the proceeding as an advocate or in any
investigative or expert capacity, or with any of their representatives.
Accordingly, the following EPA offices, and the staffs thereof, are
designated as judicial staff to perform the judicial function of EPA in
any administrative hearings on this Notice of Intent to Suspend: The
Office of the Administrative Law Judges, the Office of the
Environmental Appeals Board, the Administrator, the Deputy
Administrator, and the members of the staff in the immediate offices of
the Administrator and Deputy Administrator. None of the persons
designated as the judicial staff shall have any ex parte communication
with trial staff or any other interested person not employed by EPA on
the merits of any of the issues involved in this proceeding, without
fully complying with the applicable regulations.
    2. You may also avoid suspension if, within the applicable 30-day
deadline period as measured from your receipt of the Notice of Intent
to Suspend by mail or publication of this notice, as set forth in DATES
and in Unit IV.1., the Agency determines that you have taken
appropriate steps to comply with the FIFRA section 3(c)(2)(B) DCI
notice. In order to avoid suspension under this option, you must
satisfactorily comply with Table 1--List of Requirements in Unit III.,
for each product by submitting all required supporting data/information
described in Table 1 of Unit III. and in the Explanatory Appendix (in
the docket for this Federal Register notice) to the following address
(preferably by certified mail):
    Office of Pesticide Programs, Pesticide Re-evaluation Division,
Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave.,
NW.,Washington, DC 20460-0001. For you to avoid automatic suspension
under this notice, the Agency must also determine within the applicable
30-day deadline period that you have satisfied the requirements that
are the bases of this notice and so notify you in writing. You should
submit the necessary data/information as quickly as possible for there
to be any chance the Agency will be able to make the necessary
determination in time to avoid suspension of your product. The
suspension of the registration of your company's product pursuant to
this notice will be rescinded when the Agency determines you have
complied fully with the requirements which were the bases of this
notice. Such compliance may only be achieved by submission of the data/
information described in Table 1 of Unit II.

V. Status of Products That Become Suspended

    Your product will remain suspended, however, until the Agency
determines you are in compliance with the requirements which are the
basis of this notice and so informs you in writing.
    After the suspension becomes final and effective, the registrant
subject to this notice, including all supplemental registrants of the
product listed in Unit II., may not legally distribute, sell, use,
offer for sale, hold for sale, ship, deliver for shipment, or receive
and (having so received) deliver or offer to deliver, to any person,
the product listed in Unit II. Persons other than the registrant
subject to this notice, as defined in the preceding sentence, may
continue to distribute, sell, use, offer for sale, hold for sale, ship,
deliver for shipment, or receive and (having so received) deliver or
offer to deliver, to any person, the product listed in Unit II. Nothing
in this notice authorizes any person to distribute, sell, use, offer
for sale, hold for sale, ship, deliver for shipment, or receive and
(having so received) deliver or offer to deliver, to any person, the
product listed in Unit II. in any manner which would have been unlawful
prior to the suspension.
    If the registration for your product listed in Unit II. is
currently suspended as a result of failure to comply with another FIFRA
section 3(c)(2)(B) Data Call-In notice or Section 4 Data Requirements
notice, this notice, when it becomes a final and effective order of
suspension, will be in addition to any existing suspension, i.e., all
requirements which are the bases of the suspension must be satisfied
before the registration will be reinstated.
    It is the responsibility of the basic registrant to notify all
supplementary registered distributors of a basic registered product
that this suspension action also applies to their supplementary
registered products. The basic registrant may be held liable for
violations committed by their distributors.
    Any questions about the requirements and procedures set forth in
this notice or in the subject FIFRA section 3(c)(2)(B) Data Call-In
notice, should be addressed to the person listed under FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT.

VI. What is the Agency's authority for taking this action?

    The Agency's authority for taking this action is contained in
sections 3(c)(2)(B) and 6(f)(2) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.
