## Abstract

This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of Methylorubrum extorquens strain NLS0042 in or on all food commodities when used in accordance with label directions and good agricultural practices.

This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of Methylorubrum extorquens strain NLS0042 under FFDCA when used in accordance with this exemption.
