Abstract

This final rule revokes specific tolerances and/or exemptions for residues of the herbicides chloramben, 2-chloro-N,N- diallylacetamide, chloroxuron, diethatyl-ethyl, terbutryn, and 2,3,6- trichlorophenylacetic acid; the fungicides biphenyl, captafol, chlorosulfamic acid, and sulfur dioxide; and the insecticides calcium cyanide, 2-chloro-1-(2,4,5-trichlorophenyl) vinyl dimethyl phosphate, chlorthiophos, and ethyl 4,4'-dichlorobenzilate [chlorobenzilate]; as listed in the regulatory text. The regulatory actions in this document are part of the Agency's reregistration program under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), and the tolerance reassessment requirements of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA). By law, EPA is required to reassess 33% of the tolerances in existence on August 2, 1996, by August 1999, or about 3,200 tolerances. This document revokes 138 tolerances and/or exemptions which would be counted among reassessments made toward the August, 1999 review deadline of FFDCA section 408(q), as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) of 1996.
