    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued a notice about receiving requests from registrants to either voluntarily cancel certain pesticide registrations or amend them to terminate specific uses. These actions are in accordance with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). The EPA plans to approve these requests unless there are significant public comments for reconsideration or the registrants withdraw their requests. Any sale or use of affected products after cancellations and terminations will only be allowed if it complies with the final order's terms.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA got letters from companies saying they want to stop making or change some bug and plant killer products, and the EPA is planning to agree unless people say something really important that changes their minds.

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has submitted a request to extend an existing information collection, called the Consolidated Air Rule, which applies to facilities in the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry. This rule helps ensure compliance with various environmental regulations by offering a single, consolidated set of requirements. Public comments on the proposal are being requested until January 27, 2025. The EPA reports an increase in the estimated reporting burden due to a rise in facilities choosing this compliance method and industry growth.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA wants to continue checking that factories making certain chemicals follow the rules. They are asking people what they think about this plan until January 2025.
