This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of calcium lactate pentahydrate (CAS Reg. No. 5743-47-5) when used as an inert ingredient in pesticide formulations applied to growing crops or to raw agricultural commodities after harvest. SynTech Global LLC, on behalf of BioNext sprl submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), as amended by the Federal Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA), requesting an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of calcium lactate pentahydrate.
