        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 amended to delete one or more uses. The Act further provides that, 
    before acting on the request, EPA must publish a notice of receipt of 
    any such request in the Federal Register. Thereafter, the Administrator 
    may approve such a request.
    
    II. Intent to Delete Uses
    
        This notice announces receipt by the Agency of applications from 
    registrants to delete uses in the 39 pesticide registrations listed in 
    the following Table 1. These registrations are listed by registration 
    number, product names, active ingredients and the specific uses 
    deleted. Users of these products who desire continued use on crops or 
    sites being deleted should contact the applicable registrant before

    amendment. This 180-day period will also permit interested members of
