Accordingly, EPA is reopening the

public to comment on any requests for

voluntary cancellation listed in the

October 28, 2005 Notice.

DATES: Comments on the October 28,

2005 Notice must be received by June

registration until its ‘‘me-too’’

registration is granted.

II. What Action is the Agency Taking?

List of Subjects

Environmental protection, Pesticides

and pests.

On October 28, 2005, EPA issued a

notice announcing the receipt by EPA of

applications from registrants to cancel

certain pesticide products registered

under section 3 or section 24(c) of

FIFRA. (See 70 FR 62112, October

28,2005)(FRL–7743–6). Those

registrations are listed in sequence by

registration number (or company

number and 24(c) number) in Table 1 of

that Notice. Table 2 of that Notice

includes the names and addresses of

record for all registrants of the products

in Table 1, in sequence by EPA

company number.

Under FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(B), EPA

must ‘‘provide for a 30–day period in

which the public may comment’’ before

acting on any request to cancel or

amend a pesticide registration

submitted under section 6(f)(1)(A).

Although the October 28, 2005 Notice

allowed registrants 180 days to

withdraw any requests for voluntary

cancellation, it did not explicitly refer to

a 30–day public comment period.

Therefore, EPA is issuing this notice to

provide specifically for a public

comment period on the requests for

voluntary cancellation contained in the

October 28, 2005 Notice. EPA will not

issue any cancellation orders for any

products contained in the October 28,

2005 Notice before June 30, 2006.

Because FIFRA section 6(f)(1)(A)

allows a registrant to request

cancellation of its pesticide registrations

at any time, users or anyone else

desiring retention of those pesticides

listed in the October 28, 2005 Notice

may want to contact the applicable

registrant in Table 2 of the October 28,

2005 Notice directly to request that the

registrant retain the pesticide

registration or to discuss the possibility

of transferring the registration. A user

seeking to apply for its own registration

of that pesticide may submit comments

requesting EPA not to cancel a

III. 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 and provide for

a 30–day period in which the public

may comment. Thereafter, the

Administrator may approve such a

request.
