## Abstract

This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of [alpha]-terpineol (CAS No. 98-55-5) when used as a solvent inert ingredient in pesticide formulations at rates of 5% of the formulation in pre-harvest applications to crops. Landis International, Inc., on behalf of Morse Enterprises Limited, Inc. d/b/a KeyPlex 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 [alpha]-terpineol (CAS No. 98-55-5) on food or feed commodities when used in accordance with this exemption.
