ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[EPA-HQ-OPP-2010-0306; FRL-8838-8]
Resmethrin; Notice of Receipt of Requests To Voluntarily Cancel
Certain Pesticide Registrations
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with section 6(f)(1) of the Federal Insecticide,
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, EPA is issuing a
notice of receipt of requests by the registrants to voluntarily cancel
all remaining registrations of products containing the pesticide
resmethrin. The requests would terminate all resmethrin products
registered for use in the United States. EPA intends to grant these
requests at the close of the comment period for this announcement
unless the Agency receives substantive comments within the comment
period that would merit its further review of the requests, or unless
the registrants withdraw their requests. If these requests are granted,
any sale, distribution, or use of products listed in this notice will
be permitted after the registration has been canceled only if such
sale, distribution, or use is consistent with the terms as described in
the final order. Resmethrin users or anyone else that desires the
retention of
[[Page 52331]]
a resmethrin registration should contact the applicable registrants
during the comment period.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this Action Apply to Me?
This action is directed to the public in general, and may be of
interest to a wide range of stakeholders including environmental, human
health, and agricultural advocates; the chemical industry; pesticide
users; and members of the public interested in the sale, distribution,
or use of pesticides. Since others also may be interested, the Agency
has not attempted to describe all the specific entities that may be
affected by this action. If you have any questions regarding the
applicability of this action to a particular entity, consult the person
listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
B. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD-ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD-ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD-ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.
iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and
suggest alternatives.
vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.
II. Background on the Receipt of Requests to Cancel Registrations
This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from registrants
to cancel all resmethrin product registrations. Resmethrin is a member
of the pyrethroid class of pesticides. It is used to control a broad
spectrum of flying and crawling insects in residential, commercial and
industrial settings as well as in animal living areas. It is used as a
crack and crevice spray and enclosed space fog in food handling
establishments. There are no agricultural uses registered for
resmethrin.
The registrants have requested voluntary cancellation of these
resmethrin containing products due to the pending cancellation of the
technical product. The 2006 Resmethirn Reregistration Eligibility
Decision (RED), coupled with the costs to satisfy the recently issued
Endocrine Disrupter Screening Program (EDSP) testing orders are not
justified by the market opportunity in the vector control business
segment or other uses for
[[Page 52332]]
resmethrin. In addition, registrants may not formulate their products,
as the technical producer of resmethrin has requested a voluntary
cancellation of their technical registration. Resmethrin users or
anyone else that desires the retention of a resmethrin registration
should contact the applicable registrants during the comment period.
The data required to support a resmethrin product are identified in
Table 1. In addition, the generic data requirements for resmethrin,
which are listed in the Federal Register of May 19, 2010 (75 FR 28019)
(FRL-8825-7), would also be required.

In letters received by the Agency, the registrants requested EPA to
cancel all pesticide product registrations identified in this notice in
Table 2. Specifically, the registrants have requested voluntary
cancellation of all remaining products containing resmethrin. This
action would terminate the use of resmethrin products registered in the
United States including its use as a wide area mosquito abatement
insecticide.
III. What Action is the Agency Taking?
This notice announces receipt by EPA of requests from registrants
to cancel all remaining registrations of products containing the
pesticide resmethrin. The affected products and the registrants making
the requests are identified in Tables 2 and 3 of this unit.
Unless a request is withdrawn by the registrant or if the Agency
determines that there are substantive comments that warrant further
review of this request, EPA intends to issue an order canceling the
affected registrations.

IV. 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 or amended to terminate one or more uses. FIFRA further
provides that, before acting on the request, EPA must publish a notice
of receipt of any such request in the Federal Register.
Section 6(f)(1)(B) of FIFRA requires that before acting on a
request for voluntary cancellation, EPA must provide a 30-day public
comment period on the request for voluntary cancellation or use
termination. In addition, section 6(f)(1)(C) of FIFRA requires that EPA
provide a 180-day comment period on a request for voluntary
cancellation or termination of any minor agricultural use before
granting the request, unless:
1. The registrants request a waiver of the comment period, or
2. The Administrator determines that continued use of the pesticide
would pose an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment.
The resmethrin registrants have not requested that EPA waive the
180-day comment period. Accordingly, EPA will provide a 180-day comment
period on the proposed requests.
V. Procedures for Withdrawal of Requests
Registrants who choose to withdraw a request for product
cancellation should submit the withdrawal in writing to the person
listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. If the products(s) have
been subject to a previous cancellation action, the effective date of
cancellation and all other provisions of any earlier cancellation
action are controlling.
[[Page 52340]]
VI. Provisions for Disposition of Existing Stocks
Existing stocks are those stocks of registered pesticide products
that are currently in the United States and that were packaged,
labeled, and released for shipment prior to the effective date of the
action. If the request(s) for voluntary cancellation are granted, the
Agency intends to publish the cancellation order in the Federal
Register.
In any order issued in response to these requests for cancellation
of product registrations, EPA proposes to include the following
provisions for the treatment of any existing stocks of the products
listed in Table 2.
After December 31, 2012, registrants are prohibited from
formulating, selling, or distributing existing stocks of products
containing resmethrin for all uses, including the use of resmethrin as
a wide area mosquito abatement insecticide.
Persons other than the registrant may sell, distribute, or use
existing stocks of canceled products until supplies are exhausted,
provided that such sale, distribution, or use is consistent with the
terms of the previously approved labeling on, or that accompanied, the
canceled products.
