ORDER
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is directed to take final action by December 30, 2016 on its proposed revocation rule and its final response to Pesticide Action Network North America and Natural Resources Defense Council’s (collectively “PANNA”) 2007 petition.
EPA shall file an interim status report with the Court no later than June 30, 2016. In that report, EPA shall advise the Court of its efforts to comply with the deadline. EPA shall also include a detailed explanation of extraordinary circumstances, if any exist, that make EPA’s compliance with the final action deadline of December 30, 2016 impracticable to meet. If EPA’s interim status report includes such an “extraordinary circumstances” recitation, PANNA shall have 30 days to file a response thereto.
The panel shall retain jurisdiction over any further proceedings related to this petition.
