## Abstract

This regulation establishes two exemptions from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of alkyl (C<INF>10</INF>- C<INF>16</INF>) polyglycosides also known as D-glucopyranose, oligomeric, C<INF>10</INF>-C<INF>16</INF>-alkyl glycosides when used as an inert ingredient in or on growing crops, when applied to raw agricultural commodities after harvest, or to animals. Cognis Corporation submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA), requesting an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of D-glucopyranose, oligomeric, C<INF>10</INF>-C<INF>16</INF>-alkyl glycosides.
