Methyl Parathion; Rescision of Previously Issued Order and
Issuance of Revised Cancellation Order for Certain Pesticide
Registrations
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA's rescision of a previously issued
cancellation order and provides a revised cancellation order,
voluntarily requested by the registrants and accepted by the Agency, of
products containing methyl parathion, pursuant to section 6(f)(1) of
the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as
amended. This revised cancellation order rescinds a July 16, 2010
Federal Register Notice which incorrectly stated the effective date of
the cancellations of the product registrations listed in Table 1 of
Unit II. This order correctly identifies the effective dates of
cancellation for the affected product registrations. In addition, this
order clarifies the existing stocks provisions. These are the last products containing this pesticide registered for use in the United States. In the April 28,
2010 Federal Register Notice of Receipt of Requests from the
registrants listed in Table 2 of Unit II. to voluntarily cancel all
these product registrations, EPA indicated that it 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 registrants withdrew their
requests. The Agency received two comments on the notice but none
merited the denial or the further review of the requests. Further, the
registrants did not withdraw their requests. Accordingly, EPA hereby
issues in this notice a cancellation order granting the requested
cancellations. Any distribution, sale, or use of the 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 are effective December 31, 2012.
