    be amended to delete one or more uses. The Act further provides that,

    may approve such a request.
    
    III. Intent to Delete Uses
    
        This notice announces receipt by the Agency of applications from 
    registrants to delete uses in the three 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 
    February 22, 2000 to discuss withdrawal of the applications for 
    amendment. This 180-day period will also permit interested members of 
    the public to intercede with registrants prior to the Agency approval 
    of the deletion. (Note: Registration number(s) preceded by * indicate a 
    30-day comment period).
