Abstract

This regulation extends a time-limited tolerance for combined residues of the fungicide myclobutanil and its metabolites in or on hops at 5.0 parts per million (ppm) for an additional 2-year period. This tolerance will expire and is revoked on December 31, 2001. This regulation also extends time-limited tolerances for combined residues of the fungicide myclobutanil and its metabolites, in or on caneberries at 1.0 ppm and in or on peppermint and spearmint at 2.5 ppm for an additional 1-year period. These tolerances will expire and are revoked on December 31, 2000. This action is in response to EPA's granting of emergency exemptions under section 18 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) authorizing use of the pesticide on caneberries, hops, peppermint and spearmint. 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.
