Abstract

This regulation establishes tolerances for combined residues of mefenoxam in or on globe artichoke, starfruit, kiwifruit, papaya, black sapote, star apple, canistel, mamey sapote, mango, sapodilla, sugar apple, atemoya, custard apple, lingonberry, fresh herbs, and dried herbs. The Interregional Research Project Number 4 (IR-4) requested these tolerances under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996. The risk assessment performed for mefenoxam is an aggregate risk assessment which includes the proposed new uses of mefenoxam and all current metalaxyl tolerances/uses. Consequently, EPA has reassessed a total of 122 existing tolerances for metalaxyl. By law, EPA is required by August 2002 to reassess 66% of the tolerances in existence on August 2, 1996, or about 6,400 tolerances. The 122 tolerances reassessed in this final rule count toward the August, 2002 review deadline.
