Abstract

This regulation establishes a time-limited tolerance for residues of the pesticide vinclozolin, [3-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-5- ethenyl-5-methyl-2,4-oxazolidinedione] and its metabolites containing the 3,5-dichloroanaline (3,5-DCA) moiety at 2.0 parts per million (ppm) in or on the food commodity succulent beans. The tolerance will expire and is revoked on October 1, 1999. A petition was submitted by BASF Corporation to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-170) requesting the tolerance. BASF has requested that EPA revoke the tolerances for prunes, plums, tomatoes, grapes (excluding grapes grown for wine production), raisins, dried prunes and grape pomace. EPA will publish a document in the Federal Register to remove the revoked tolerances from the Code of Federal Regulations. BASF has deleted all residential uses, as well as, turf in parks, school grounds and recreational areas which would be expected to result in significant exposure to children from its vinclozolin registrations under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).
