notice of receipt of request for amendments by registrants to delete

request, EPA must publish a notice of receipt of any request in the 
Federal Register.

2009, whichever is applicable. Comments must be received on or before 
February 23, 2010 or September 28, 2009, for those registrations where 
the 180-day comment period has been waived.
    Users of these products who desire continued use on crops or sites
