SUMMARY: This Notice announces EPA's order for the cancellations,
voluntarily requested by the registrant and accepted by the Agency, of products
containing the pesticide, carbaryl, pursuant to section 6(f)(1) of the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as
amended. This cancellation order follows an October 21, 2009 Federal
Register Notice of Receipt of Request from the carbaryl registrant to
voluntarily cancel their carbaryl pet collar product registrations.
These are not the last carbaryl products registered for use in the
United States; however, they are the last carbaryl products registered

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
registrant withdrew its request within this period. The Agency received
one comment on the Notice, but it did not merit further review of the
request. Further, the registrant did not withdraw its request.
Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this Notice a cancellation order
granting the requested cancellations. Any distribution, sale, or use of
the carbaryl products subject to this cancellation order is permitted
only in accordance with the terms of this order, including any existing
stocks provisions.
DATES: The cancellations of the products listed in Table 1 of Unit II.
are effective September 30, 2010.

Subject: TOXICS - ND. EPA. Registration Review; Pesticide Dockets Opened for Review and Comment

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

Registration Review; Pesticide Dockets Opened for Review and
Comment
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: EPA has established registration review dockets for the
pesticides listed in the table in Unit III.A. With this document, EPA
is opening the public comment period for these registration reviews.
Registration review is EPA's periodic review of pesticide registrations
to ensure that each pesticide continues to satisfy the statutory
standard for registration--that is, the pesticide can perform its
intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on human health
or the environment. Registration review dockets contain information
that will assist the public in understanding the types of information
and issues that the Agency may consider during the course of
registration reviews. Through this program, EPA is ensuring that each
pesticide's registration is based on current scientific and other
knowledge, including its effects on human health and the environment.
This document also announces the Agency's intent not to open
registration review dockets for aldoxycarb, 1 RS cis-permethrin, and
cyhexatin. These pesticides do not currently have any actively
registered pesticide products and are therefore not scheduled for
review under the registration review program. Additionally, this
document announces that the Agency is not opening a registration review
docket for carbofuran because cancellation is in process.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before February 16, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments identified by the docket identification
(ID) number for the specific pesticide of interest provided in the
table in Unit III.A., by one of the following methods:

ACTION: Notice of 90-day petition finding.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), announce a
90-day finding on 192 species from a petition to list 475 species in
the southwestern United States as threatened or endangered under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). For 125 of the 192
species, we find that the petition did not present substantial
information indicating that listing may be warranted. Based on our
review, we find that the petition presents substantial scientific or
commercial information indicating that listing may be warranted for 67
of the 192 species. Therefore, with the publication of this notice, we
are initiating a status review of the 67 species to determine if
listing is warranted. To ensure that the status review is
comprehensive, we are requesting scientific and commercial data and
other information regarding these 67 species. Based on the status
review, we will issue a 12-month finding on the petition, which will
address whether the petitioned action is warranted, as provided in the
Act.
DATES: To allow us adequate time to conduct a status review, we request
that we receive information on or before February 16, 2010. After this
date, you must submit information directly to the Southwest Regional
Ecological Services Office (see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section
below). Please note that we may not be able to address or incorporate
information that we receive after the above requested date.
