What
is
the
Agency's
Authority
for
Taking
this
Action?

Section
6(
f)(
1)
of
FIFRA
provides
that
a
registrant
of
a
pesticide
product
may
at
any
time
request
that
any
of
its
pesticide
registrations
be
canceled.
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,
the
Administrator
may
approve
such
a
request.

IV.
Procedures
for
Withdrawal
of
Request
Registrants
who
choose
to
withdraw
a
request
for
cancellation
must
submit
such
withdrawal
in
writing
to
the
person

under
FOR
FURTHER
INFORMATION
CONTACT,
postmarked
before
August

This
written

request
for
cancellation
will
apply
only
to
the
applicable
FIFRA
section
6(
f)(
1)
request
listed
in
this
notice.
If
the
product(
s)
have
been
subject
to
a
previous
cancellation
action,
the
effective
date
of
cancellation
and
all
other
provisions
of
any
earlier
cancellation
action
are
controlling.
The
withdrawal
request
must
also
include
a
commitment
to
pay
any
reregistration
fees
due,
and
to
fulfill
any
applicable
unsatisfied
data
requirements.

V.
Provisions
for
Disposition
of
Existing
Stocks
The
effective
date
of
cancellation
will
be
the
date
of
the
cancellation
order.
The
orders
effecting
these
requested
cancellations
will
generally
permit
a
registrant
to
sell
or
distribute
existing
stocks
for
1
 
year
after
the
date
the
cancellation
request
was
received.
This
policy
is
in
accordance
with
the
Agency's
statement
of
policy
as
prescribed
in
the
Federal
Register
of
June
26,
1991
(
56
FR
29362)
(
FRL
 
3846
 
4).
Exceptions
to
this
general
rule
will
be
made
if
a
product
poses
a
risk
concern,
or
is
in
noncompliance
with
reregistration
requirements,
or
is
subject
to
a
Data
Call­
In.
In
all
cases,
productspecific
disposition
dates
will
be
given
in
the
cancellation
orders.
Existing
stocks
are
those
stocks
of
registered
pesticide
products
which
are
currently
in
the
U.
S.
and
which
have
been
packaged,
labeled,
and
released
for
shipment
prior
to
the
effective
date
of
the
cancellation
action.
Unless
the
provisions
of
an
earlier
order
apply,
existing
stocks
already
in
the
hands
of
dealers
or
users
can
be
distributed,
sold,
or
used
legally
until
they
are
exhausted,
provided
that
such
further
sale
and
use
comply
with
the
EPA­
approved
label
and
labeling
of
the
affected
product.
Exception
to
these
general
rules
will
be
made
in
specific
cases
when
more
stringent
restrictions
on
sale,
distribution,
or
use
of
the
products
or
their
ingredients
have
already
been
imposed,
as
in
a
Special
Review
action,
or
where
the
Agency
has
identified
significant
potential
risk
concerns
associated
with
a
particular
chemical.
