## Abstract

This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of polyvinyl acetate--polyvinyl alcohol copolymer; when used as an inert ingredient in a pesticide chemical formulation. Keller and Heckman LLP. on behalf of Synthomer USA LLC submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), requesting an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of polyvinyl acetate--polyvinyl alcohol copolymer on food or feed commodities.
