The intent of this network is to inform interested parties of impending pesticide use cancellations and to afford those parties the opportunity to affect decision made by the pesticide registrants in concert with EPA. To the best of our knowledge the uses mentioned below will not appear on any label registered by the EPA following their expected cancellation.

The following information about the herbicide isopropalin has been obtained from DowElanco and the National Agricultural Chemical Association:

DowElanco has Submitted a voluntary cancellation notice for isopropalin's use on tobacco, the last registered use of Parlan EC herbicide. The cancellation is due to cost of data development. No other products containing isopropalin will be registered.
