## Abstract

EPA is amending 40 CFR part 180 to remove time-limited tolerances for several pesticides that were originally established to support emergency exemptions issued under section 18 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). These time-limited tolerances are being removed from 40 CFR part 180 because they have since expired or because permanent tolerances have been established for the pesticide and commodity covered by the time-limited tolerance. The expired time-limited tolerance is obsolete, while the unexpired time- limited tolerance covered by a permanent tolerance is duplicative. In either case, the time-limited tolerance is unnecessary and is being removed with this final rule to ensure that the regulatory listings of tolerances is properly updated.
