Diazinon
belongs
to
a
group
of
pesticides
known
as
organophosphates
(
OPs).
EPA
has
issued
an
Interim

(
IRED)
document
assessing
the
risks
of
exposure
from
diazinon.

B.
Requests
for
Voluntary
Cancellation
Under
section
6(
f)(
1)(
A)
of
FIFRA,
registrants
may
request,
at
any
time,
that
their
pesticide
registrations
be
canceled
or
amended
to
terminate
one
or
more
pesticide
uses.
Section
6(
f)(
1)(
B)
of
FIFRA
requires
that
before
acting
on
a
request
for
voluntary
cancellation,
EPA
must
provide
a
30
 
day
public
comment
period
on
the
request
for
voluntary
cancellation.
In
addition,
section
6(
f)(
1)(
C)
of
FIFRA
requires
that
EPA
provide
a
180
 
day
comment
period
on
a
request
for
voluntary
termination
of
any
minor
agricultural
use
before
granting
the
request,
unless:
(
1)
The
registrants
request
a
waiver
of
the
comment
period,
or
(
2)
the
Administrator
determines
that
continued
use
of
the
pesticide
would
pose
an
unreasonable
adverse
effect
on
the
environment.
Syngenta
requested
a
waiver
of
the
180
 
day
comment
period.
The
Agency
will
therefore
apply
a
30
 
day
comment
period.
Unless
the
Agency
determines
that
there
are
substantive
comments
that
warrant
further
review
of
this
request,
an
order
will
be
issued
canceling
all
of
these
registrations.
