The original cancellation order for EPA Registration No. 44891-6, an antifouling paint product containing tributyltin methacrylate, was published in the Federal Register on February 16, 2005 (70 FR 7941)(OPP-2004-0365; FRL-7699-6). Today's notice corrects the effective date of cancellation as stated in that notice consistent with the registrant's request for voluntary cancellation and to allow formulation of the registrant's last remaining technical material. The Agency received a March 7, 2005 request from the registrant seeking such correction. The effective date of the cancellation cited in the February 16, 2005 notice was the date of publication of that notice (or February 16, 2005); the corrected effective date of cancellation is December 1, 2005. The change in the effective date of the cancellation extends the period during which the registrant may formulate the product but does not increase the overall amount of TBT material that will be available to be used for formulation. The technical material that will be available to be used for formulation during this time period was all within the registrant's possession and control at the time the registrant requested voluntary cancellation. The correction does not affect the existing stocks provision set forth in the cancellation order and the February 16, 2005 notice. The registration affected by this correction and the effective date of cancellation are shown in the table below. Registration Subject to Cancellation and Effective Date of Cancellation ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EPA Registration Product Name Effective Date of Cancellation ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 44891-6 Sea Hawk Biocop Antifouling Coating December 1, 2005 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The February 16, 2005 cancellation order is hereby corrected as follows: On page 7941, in the second column, under DATES, the text should read: ``The cancellation is effective December 1, 2005.'' On page 7942, in the first column, under Unit IV., in the first paragraph, the second sentence now reading ``Accordingly, the Agency orders that the tributyltin methacrylate registration identified in the Table of Unit II is hereby canceled,'' is corrected to read ``Accordingly, the Agency orders that the tributyltin methacrylate registration identified in the Table of Unit II is canceled effective December 1, 2005.'' The existing stocks provisions remain as stated in the February 16, 2005 notice. List of Subjects Environmental protection, Pesticides and pests. Dated: March 18, 2005.
