ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[EPA-HQ-2006-0099; FRL-8099-5]

 
Notice of Receipt of Requests for Amendments to Delete Uses in 
Certain Pesticide Registrations; Technical Correction

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice

-----------------------------------------------------------------------.


SUMMARY: On September 1, 2006, EPA issued a Notice of Receipt of 
Requests for Amendments by Registrants to Delete Uses in Certain 
Pesticide Registrations. 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 amended to delete one or more uses. 
FIFRA further provides that, before acting on the request, EPA must 
publish a notice of receipt of any request in the Federal Register. The 
September 1 Notice inadvertently included a request to delete Guar 
(edible) Gums from EPA Registrations 47870-1, Propylene Oxide, 47870-2, 
Propylene Oxide Technical, and 47870-3, Propoxide 892. A request to 
delete Guar (edible) Gums from these three registrations was previously 
published on May 24, 2006. The terms of the May 24, 2006 Federal 
Register notice are controlling with respect to these three 
registrations.

DATES: Because this technical correction removes three use deletion 
requests, the effective date for the remaining use deletions remains 
unchanged from the September 1 Notice. The remaining deletions are 
effective February 28, 2007, unless the Agency receives a written 
withdrawal request on or before February 28, 2007. The Agency will 
consider a withdrawal request postmarked no later than February 28, 
2007.
    Users of these products who desire continued use on crops or sites 
being deleted should contact the applicable registrant on or before 
February 28, 2007.

ADDRESSES: Submit your withdrawal request, identified by docket 
identification (ID) number EPA-HQ-OPP-2006-0099, by one of the 
following methods:
