Notice of Receipt of Requests to Voluntarily Cancel Certain Pesticide Registrations; Technical Correction

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 issued a notice of receipt of request by registrants to voluntarily cancel certain pesticide registrations in the Federal Register of February 22, 2006. The notice announced that 90 pesticide registrations would be canceled unless a cancellation request was withdrawn by August 21, 2006. The 90 registrations were listed in Table 1. This notice corrects information in Table 1 for one of the registrations. EPA Registration Number 000100-01074 (Cyclone Concentrate Herbicide) was erroneously included in the February 22, 2006 Notice, therefore with this technical correction EPA is removing EPA Registration Number 000100-01074 (Cyclone Concentrate Herbicide) from Table 1 of the February 22, 2006 Federal Register Notice. A request to voluntarily cancel EPA Registration Number 000100-01074 (Cyclone Concentrate Herbicide) was previously published in the Federal Register of October 28, 2005. The terms of the October 28, 2005 Notice take precedent over the erroneous inclusion of this registration in the February 22, 2006 Federal Register Notice.

DATES:

Unless the request to cancel EPA Registration Number 000100-01074 (Cyclone Concentrate Herbicide) is withdrawn by April 26, 2006 an order will be issued canceling this registration. The Agency will consider withdrawal requests postmarked no later than April 26, 2006.

The notice announced that 90 pesticide registrations would be canceled unless a cancellation request was withdrawn by August 21, 2006. The 90 registrations were listed in Table 1. EPA Registration Number 000100-01074 (Cyclone Concentrate Herbicide) was erroneously included in the February 22, 2006 Notice. In this technical correction, EPA is removing the entry for EPA Registration Number 000100-01074 (Cyclone Concentrate Herbicide) from table 1 of the February 22, 2006 Notice (71 FR 9119).
