Abstract

This rule extends time-limited tolerances for residues of the herbicide pendimethalin and its metabolite in or on fresh mint hay at 0.1 part per million (ppm) and mint oil at 5.0 ppm for an additional 1- year period, to May 31, 1999. This action is in response to EPA's granting of an emergency exemption under section 18 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) authorizing use of the pesticide on mint. Section 408(l)(6) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) requires EPA to establish a time-limited tolerance or exemption from the requirement for a tolerance for pesticide chemical residues in food that will result from the use of a pesticide under an emergency exemption granted by EPA under section 18 of FIFRA.
