## Abstract

This regulation establishes exemptions from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of N,N-dimethyloctanamide or octanamide, N,N- dimethyl (CAS Reg. No. 1118-92-9), and N,N-dimethyldecanamide or decanamide, N,N-dimethyl (CAS Reg. No. 14433-76-2) when used as inert ingredients (emulsifier, solvent, and cosolvent) in pesticide formulations applied only to growing crops. The C.P. Hall Company, now doing business as CPH Services, 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 N,N- dimethyloctanamide and N,N-dimethyldecanamide.
