## Abstract

This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of two polymers methacrylic acid-methyl methacrylate-polyethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate copolymer; and maleic anhydride-<greek-a>-methylstyrene copolymer sodium salt when used as an inert ingredient surfactant in or on growing crops or when applied to raw agricultural commodities after harvest. Huntsman Petrochemical Corporation submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 requesting an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of methacrylic acid-methyl methacrylate- polyethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate copolymer; and maleic anhydride-<greek-a>-methylstyrene copolymer sodium salt.
