## Abstract

This final rule transfers certain of the pesticide food and feed additive regulations that are now in 40 CFR parts 185 and 186 to part 180. EPA is consolidating these regulations because as a matter of law all of pesticide tolerances are now considered to be regulated under section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act (Pub. L. 104-17) and they no longer need to be separate. EPA is also amending 40 CFR 180.1 by adding a definition for the term "food commodity."
