Actions

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is revoking certain tolerances for the fungicides dicloran
and thiophanate-methyl; the herbicides EPTC, hexazinone, picloram, and
propazine; the defoliant and herbicide cacodylic acid; the plant growth
regulator and herbicide diquat, the insecticides disulfoton,
methamidophos, methomyl, phosmet, piperonyl butoxide, pyrethrins, and
thiodicarb; the fumigant antimicrobial and insecticide methyl bromide,
and the nematicides/insecticides ethoprop and fenamiphos, and the
tolerance exemptions for the insecticide/miticide pyrethrum and
insecticide synergist N-octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide. However,
EPA will not revoke specific malathion tolerances at this time. In
addition, EPA is removing certain expired tolerances for disulfoton,
fenamiphos, and thiophanate-methyl. Also, EPA is modifying certain
tolerances for the fungicide thiophanate-methyl, herbicides dicamba,
EPTC, hexazinone and picloram, and insecticide synergist N-octyl
bicycloheptene dicarboximide. In addition, EPA is establishing new
tolerances for the fungicide thiophanate-methyl and the herbicides
EPTC, hexazinone, and picloram. Also, EPA is reinstating specific
tolerances for methamidophos residues as a result of the application of
the insecticide acephate. The regulatory actions finalized in this
document are in follow-up to the Agency's reregistration program under
the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), and
tolerance reassessment program under the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), section 408(q).

DATES: This regulation is effective September 29, 2010. Objections and
requests for hearings must be received on or before November 29, 2010,
and must be filed in accordance with the instructions provided in 40
CFR part 178 (see also Unit I.C. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION).

II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    In the Federal Register of May 19, 2010 (75 FR 28155) (FRL-8821-3),
EPA

issued a proposal to revoke, modify, and establish specific tolerances
for residues of the fungicides dicloran and thiophanate-methyl; the
herbicides dicamba, EPTC, hexazinone, picloram, and propazine; the
defoliant and herbicide cacodylic acid; the plant growth regulator and
herbicide diquat, the insecticides disulfoton, malathion,
methamidophos, methomyl, phosmet, piperonyl butoxide, pyrethrins, and
thiodicarb; the fumigant, antimicrobial, and insecticide, methyl
bromide, and the nematicides/insecticides, ethoprop and fenamiphos, and
the tolerance exemptions for the insecticide/miticide pyrethrum and
insecticide synergist N-octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide. In
addition, EPA proposed to remove certain expired tolerances for
disulfoton, fenamiphos, and thiophanate-methyl, and to reinstate
specific tolerances for methamidophos residues as a result of the
application of the insecticide acephate. Also, the proposal of May 19,
2010 (75 FR 28155) provided a 60-day comment period which invited
public comment for consideration and for support of tolerance retention
under FFDCA standards.
    In this final rule, EPA is revoking, modifying, and establishing
specific tolerances/tolerance exemptions for residues of cacodylic
acid, dicamba, dicloran, diquat, disulfoton, EPTC, ethoprop,
fenamiphos, hexazinone, methamidophos, methomyl, methyl bromide, N-
octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide, phosmet, picloram, piperonyl
butoxide, propazine, pyrethrins, pyrethrum, thiodicarb, and
thiophanate-methyl in or on commodities listed in the regulatory text
of this document. Also, EPA is removing certain expired tolerances for
disulfoton, fenamiphos, and thiophanate-methyl, and reinstating
specific tolerances for methamidophos residues as a result of the
application of the insecticide acephate.
    EPA is finalizing these tolerance actions in order to implement the
tolerance recommendations made during the reregistration and tolerance
reassessment processes (including follow-up on canceled or additional
uses of pesticides). As part of these processes, EPA is required to
determine whether each of the amended tolerances meets the safety
standard of FFDCA. The safety finding determination of ``reasonable
certainty of no harm'' is discussed in detail in each Reregistration
Eligibility Decision (RED) and Report on FQPA Tolerance Reassessment
Progress and Interim Risk Management Decision (TRED) for the active
ingredient. REDs and TREDs recommend the implementation of certain
tolerance actions, including modifications, to reflect current use
patterns, to meet safety findings and change commodity names and
groupings in accordance with new EPA policy. Printed copies of many
REDs and TREDs may be obtained from EPA's National Service Center for
Environmental Publications (EPA/NSCEP), P.O. Box 42419, Cincinnati, OH
45242-2419; telephone number: 1-800-490-9198; fax number: 1-513-489-
8695; Internet at http://www.epa.gov/ncepihom and from the National
Technical Information Service (NTIS), 5285 Port Royal Rd., Springfield,
VA 22161; telephone number: 1-800-553-6847 or<PHONE_NUMBER>; Internet
at http://www.ntis.gov. Electronic copies of REDs and TREDs are
available on the Internet at http://www.regulations.gov and http://
www.epa.gov/pesticides/reregistration/status.htm.
    In this final rule, EPA is revoking certain tolerances and/or
tolerance exemptions because either they are no longer needed or are
associated with food uses that are no longer registered under FIFRA in
the United States. Those instances where registrations were canceled
were because the registrant failed to pay the required maintenance fee
and/or the registrant voluntarily requested cancellation of one or more
registered uses of the pesticide active ingredient. The tolerances
revoked by this final rule are no longer necessary to cover residues of
the relevant pesticides in or on domestically treated commodities or
commodities treated outside but imported into the United States. It is
EPA's general practice to issue a final rule revoking those tolerances
and tolerance exemptions for residues of pesticide active ingredients
on crop uses for which there are no active registrations under FIFRA,
unless any person in comments on the proposal indicates a need for the
tolerance or tolerance exemption to cover residues in or on imported
commodities or legally treated domestic commodities.
    EPA has historically been concerned that retention of tolerances
that are not necessary to cover residues in or on legally treated foods
may encourage misuse of pesticides within the United States.
    Generally, EPA will proceed with the revocation of these tolerances
on the grounds discussed in Unit II.A. if one of the following
conditions applies:
     Prior to EPA's issuance of a FFDCA section 408(f) order
requesting additional data or issuance of a FFDCA section 408(d) or (e)
order revoking the tolerances on other grounds, commenters retract the
comment identifying a need for the tolerance to be retained.
     EPA independently verifies that the tolerance is no longer
needed.
     The tolerance is not supported by data that demonstrate
that the tolerance meets the requirements under FQPA.
    In response to the proposal published in the Federal Register of
May 19, 2010 (75 FR 28155), EPA received comments during the 60-day
public comment period, as follows:
    1.  Disulfoton-- comment by Bayer CropScience. The commenter
requested that the Agency delay revocation of the disulfoton tolerances
proposed in the Federal Register of May 19, 2010 (75 FR 28155) because
of communications received from trade channels and growers who claim
that they will not exhaust their existing stocks for disulfoton use on
those crops by EPA's proposed revocation dates. Therefore, Bayer
CropScience requested that the Agency delay tolerance revocation by an
additional 5 years.
    Agency response. In a follow-up communication with the Agency,
Bayer CropScience provided disulfoton sales information over a recent
period of years. The Agency has considered the information that Bayer
provided together with the Agency's data on disulfoton production,
sales, inventory, and use, and determined that there is a need for more
time to exhaust existing stocks. The Agency believes that extending
tolerance revocation by 1 additional year for lima and succulent snap
beans, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, cotton, coffee
green beans, and asparagus, and by 2 additional years for head and leaf
lettuce would allow sufficient time to exhaust existing stocks.
Therefore, EPA is revoking the tolerances in 40 CFR 180.183(a) on bean,
lima; bean, snap, succulent; broccoli; Brussels sprouts; cabbage;
cauliflower; and cotton, undelinted seed with expiration/revocation
dates of December 31, 2013, the tolerances in 40 CFR 180.183(a) on
lettuce, head and lettuce, leaf with expiration/revocation dates of
December 31, 2014, the tolerance in 40 CFR 180.183(a) on coffee, green
bean with an expiration/revocation date of June 30, 2014, and the
tolerance in 40 CFR 180.183(c) on asparagus with an expiration/
revocation date of December 31, 2013.
    In addition, EPA is finalizing all other amendments proposed
concerning disulfoton in the Federal Register of May 19, 2010 (75 FR
28155).
    2. EPTC--comment by Gowan Company. The commenter from Gowan
requested that EPA delay revocation of

the EPTC tolerance on vegetable, root at 0.1 ppm until the Agency has
reviewed residue data on carrots, which it had earlier submitted to the
California Department of Pesticide Regulation (CDPR) to support a
Special Local Need (SLN) in California. The commenter stated that CDPR
had reviewed the carrot data and granted the SLN in 2008, and that the
company would submit the residue data for EPTC on carrots to the Agency
by July 30, 2010.
     Agency response. Recently, the Agency received magnitude of
residue data for EPTC in/on carrots from Gowan Company. The Agency will
consider the data for carrots and therefore, will not take any action
on the vegetable, root tolerance in 40 CFR 180.117(a) at this time.
Also, the Agency will not establish any of the proposed individual
tolerances for beet, garden, roots; beet, sugar, roots; potato; and
sweet potato, roots at this time. However, EPA is finalizing all other
amendments proposed concerning EPTC in the Federal Register of May 19,
2010 (75 FR 28155).
    3. Ethoprop--comment by Bayer CropScience. The commenter requested
that the Agency not revoke the tolerance for ethoprop on pineapple. The
commenter stated that there is still a need for the tolerance to cover
pineapples imported into the United States. Bayer CropScience is also
prepared to support an import tolerance where necessary.
    Agency response. Because Bayer CropScience has stated a continued
need for the tolerance on pineapple in 40 CFR 180.262(a), the Agency
will not take any action on the tolerance at this time with a footnote
to denote that there are no registrations on pineapple in the United
States as of July 23, 2009, except for existing stocks bearing old
labeling whose sale, distribution, and use is allowed, provided it is
consistent with the terms of the cancellation order of July 9, 2009.
The proposed revocation, with a proposed effective date of January 9,
2011, had been based on the Agency's belief that pineapple treated with
existing stocks of ethoprop bearing old labeling whose sale,
distribution, and use is allowed, provided it is consistent with the
terms of the cancellation order of July 9, 2009, would have cleared the
channels of trade by that time, about 1 year after the registrant was
last permitted to sell and distribute stocks of the amended
registration (concerning pineapple use deletion). Under that amended
registration, the Agency will continue to allow the registrant to sell
and distribute existing stocks of products bearing the old labeling for
18 months after July 9, 2009; i.e., until January 9, 2011. Also, the
Agency will continue to allow persons other than the registrant to sell
and distribute those existing stocks of products bearing the old
labeling and use of them until exhaustion, consistent with the terms of
the cancellation order of July 9, 2009.
    However, EPA is revoking the tolerances for ethoprop in 40 CFR
180.262(a) on corn, pop, grain and corn, pop, stover and revising the
introductory text containing the tolerance expression in 40 CFR
180.262(a).
    4. Malathion--i. comment by Cheminova, Inc.. The commenter from
Cheminova requested that the Agency not revoke any existing tolerance
in 40 CFR 180.111 for malathion until the Agency can establish a
tolerance for inadvertent residues to cover critical uses including
public health mosquito and fly control, exotic/imported pest
suppression and eradication programs, grasshopper/mormon cricket
suppression programs, and other quarantine programs administered or
directed by the United States Department of Agriculture and Individual
states. In addition to its general concerns, Cheminova requested that
animal tolerances for malathion in 40 CFR 180.111 be retained since the
Agency's human health risk assessment did not have a health-related
concern that necessitated revocation of animal tolerances and to avoid
trade irritant issues that may arise from mistaken views about use of
malathion on animal feed products. Also, the commenter requested that
the tolerances on non-medicated cattle feed concentrate blocks
(residues resulting from malathion application to paper used in
packaging) and citrus, dried pulp (residues resulting from malathion
application to bagged citrus pulp during storage) in 40 CFR 180.111 not
be revoked to avoid trade barriers concerning pre-harvest use of
malathion related to any animal feed commodity, and cited orange
processing data that showed a need for the establishment of a citrus,
dried pulp tolerance as a result of foliar application of malathion to
citrus.
    ii. Comments by American Mosquito Control Association (AMCA), the
Texas Boll Weevil Eradication Foundation, Inc., and the National Cotton
Council of America (NCC). The commenters requested that the Agency not
revoke existing tolerances in 40 CFR 180.111 for malathion because of
boll weevil and public health mosquito control use of malathion in the
vicinity of crop commodities, including cotton, and the potential for
inadvertent deposition of malathion residues on adjacent crops.
    iii. Comment by the United States Department of Agriculture's
Animal and Public Health Inspection Service. The commenter requested
that the Agency not revoke existing tolerances for bagged citrus pulp
and peanut, hay in 40 CFR 180.111 for malathion because of pest control
use of malathion in citrus groves and areas adjoining cotton and peanut
fields; and the potential for inadvertent deposition of malathion
residues on adjacent crops.
    Agency response. Malathion tolerances for animal commodities were
originally based on use patterns involving direct animal treatments
with malathion. Subsequently, direct animal treatment uses were not
supported for reregistration, eliminating this exposure pathway. In the
malathion Reregistration Eligibility Decision (RED), tolerances on
livestock commodities were recommended to be revoked based on no active
registrations for direct animal treatment and available ruminant and
poultry metabolism data at exaggerated feeding rates of malathion-
treated livestock feeds, from which EPA concluded that no residues of
malathion or malaoxon occur in eggs, milk, and animal tissues as a
result of dietary exposure to these animals. However, the Agency
intends to reevaluate its decision on whether livestock commodity
tolerances may be needed based on pending and recently reviewed
livestock feed item residue data that were not available at the time of
the RED. Therefore, the Agency will defer its decision of whether to
revoke the livestock commodity tolerances until all required livestock
feed residue data have been received and reviewed.
    Also, the Agency is not finalizing tolerance actions at this time
on plant commodity tolerances in 40 CFR 180.111 which had been proposed
for revocation in the Federal Register on May 19, 2010 (75 FR 28155).
However, the Agency is revising the commodity terminology for ``bean,
dry seed'' to ``bean, dry, seed.''
    5. Methamidophos--comment by Bayer CropScience. The commenter
requested that the Agency delay revocation of the methamidophos
tolerances on cotton, potato, and tomato because of communications
received from trade channels and growers who claim that they will not
exhaust their existing stocks for methamidophos use on those crops by
EPA's proposed revocation dates. Therefore, Bayer CropScience requested
that the Agency delay tolerance revocation for the three crop
commodities from December 31, 2012 by an additional 3 years.
    Agency response. In a follow-up communication with the Agency,
Bayer

CropScience agreed that 1 additional year for methamidophos use would
allow sufficient time to exhaust existing stocks; i.e., tolerance
revocation on December 31, 2013. Because there is a need for more time
to exhaust existing stocks of methamidophos for use on cotton, potato,
and tomato, EPA is extending the time by 1 year and revoking the
tolerances in 40 CFR 180.315 on cotton, undelinted seed, potato, and
tomato with expiration/revocation dates of December 31, 2013. Also, EPA
is redesignating 40 CFR 180.315(b) as 40 CFR 180.315(c), removing the
tolerance on tomato from 40 CFR 180.315(a) and transferring it to newly
designated and revised 40 CFR 180.315(c), and increasing the tolerance
on tomato to 2.0 ppm.
    In addition, EPA is finalizing all other amendments proposed
concerning methamidophos in the Federal Register of May 19, 2010 (75 FR
28155).
    6. Methomyl--comment by DuPont Crop Protection. Regarding the
proposed revocation of the methomyl tolerance on leeks at 3.0 ppm, a
commenter asked if in the future, DuPont submits an action to add leeks
to the methomyl labels whether that use on leeks would be covered per
40 CFR 180.1(g) by the existing tolerance of 3 ppm on onion, green in
40 CFR 180.253.
    Agency response. There have been no active food-use registrations
for use of methomyl on leeks in the United States for more than 10
years, and therefore the tolerance is no longer needed. Therefore, EPA
is revoking the tolerance in 40 CFR 180.253(a) on leeks. If in future,
DuPont submits an action to add leeks to methomyl labels, the Agency
would consider if data are needed, and whether a tolerance level of 3
ppm for onion, green in 40 CFR 180.253 is appropriate per 40 CFR
180.1(g) to cover use on leeks or a new tolerance should be established
separately on leeks.
    Also, EPA is revoking the tolerances for methomyl in 40 CFR
180.253(a) on strawberry and watercress.
    The Agency did not receive any specific comments, during the 60-day
comment period, on the following pesticide active ingredients:
Acephate, cacodylic acid, dicamba, dicloran (DCNA), diquat, fenamiphos,
hexazinone, methyl bromide, N-octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide (MGK-
264), phosmet, picloram, piperonyl butoxide, propazine, pyrethrins,
pyrethrum, thiodicarb, and thiophanate-methyl. Therefore, EPA is
finalizing the amendments proposed concerning these pesticide active
ingredients in the Federal Register of May 19, 2010 (75 FR 28155). For
a detailed discussion of the Agency's rationale for the establishments,
revocations, and modifications to the tolerances/tolerance exemptions,
refer to the proposed rule of May 19, 2010 (75 FR 28155).

B. What is the Agency's Authority for Taking this Action?

    EPA may issue a regulation establishing, modifying, or revoking a
tolerance under FFDCA section 408(e). In this final rule, EPA is
establishing, modifying, and revoking tolerances to implement the
tolerance recommendations made during the reregistration and tolerance
reassessment processes, and as follow-up on canceled uses of
pesticides. As part of these processes, EPA is required to determine
whether each of the amended tolerances meets the safety standards under
FFDCA. The safety finding determination is found in detail in each
post-FQPA RED and TRED for the active ingredient. REDs and TREDs
recommend the implementation of certain tolerance actions, including
modifications to reflect current use patterns, to meet safety findings,
and change commodity names and groupings in accordance with new EPA
policy. Printed and electronic copies of the REDs and TREDs are
available as provided in Unit II.A.
    EPA has issued REDs for acephate, cacodylic acid, dicamba, dicloran
(DCNA), diquat, disulfoton, EPTC, ethoprop, malathion, methamidophos,
methomyl, methyl bromide, N-octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide,
phosmet, picloram, piperonyl butoxide, pyrethrins, pyrethrum (see
pyrethrins), thiodicarb, and thiophanate-methyl, and TREDs for
hexazinone, methyl bromide, and propazine. REDs and TREDs contain the
Agency's evaluation of the database for these pesticides, including
statements regarding additional data on the active ingredients that may
be needed to confirm the potential human health and environmental risk
assessments associated with current product uses, and REDs state
conditions under which these uses and products will be eligible for
reregistration. The REDs and TREDs recommended the establishment,
modification, and/or revocation of specific tolerances. RED and TRED
recommendations such as establishing or modifying tolerances, and in
some cases revoking tolerances, are the result of assessment under the
FFDCA standard of ``reasonable certainty of no harm.'' However,
tolerance revocations recommended in REDs and TREDs that are made final
in this document do not need such assessment when the tolerances are no
longer necessary.
    EPA's general practice is to revoke tolerances for residues of
pesticide active ingredients on crops for which FIFRA registrations no
longer exist and on which the pesticide may therefore no longer be used
in the United States. EPA has historically been concerned that
retention of tolerances that are not necessary to cover residues in or
on legally treated foods may encourage misuse of pesticides within the
United States. Nonetheless, EPA will establish and maintain tolerances
even when corresponding domestic uses are canceled if the tolerances,
which EPA refers to as ``import tolerances,'' are necessary to allow
importation into the United States of food containing such pesticide
residues. However, where there are no imported commodities that require
these import tolerances, the Agency believes it is appropriate to
revoke tolerances for unregistered pesticides in order to prevent
potential misuse.
    When EPA establishes tolerances for pesticide residues in or on raw
agricultural commodities, the Agency gives consideration to possible
pesticide residues in meat, milk, poultry, and/or eggs produced by
animals that are fed agricultural products (for example, grain or hay)
containing pesticides residues (40 CFR 180.6). If there is no
reasonable expectation of finite pesticide residues in or on meat,
milk, poultry, or eggs, then tolerances do not need to be established
for these commodities (40 CFR 180.6(b) and 180.6 (c)).

C. When Do These Actions Become Effective?

    With the exception of certain tolerances for cacodylic acid,
dicloran, disulfoton, methamidophos, and methyl bromide for which EPA
is revoking with specific expiration/revocation dates, the Agency is
revoking, modifying, and establishing specific tolerances, and revising
specific tolerance nomenclatures effective on the date of publication
of this final rule in the Federal Register. With the exception of the
revocation of specific tolerances for cacodylic acid, dicloran,
disulfoton, methamidophos, and methyl bromide, the Agency believes that
existing stocks of pesticide products labeled for the uses associated
with the revoked tolerances have been completely exhausted and that
treated commodities have had sufficient time for passage through the
channels of trade. EPA is revoking the cacodylic acid tolerance on
cotton, undelinted seed with an expiration date of January 1, 2012;
dicloran tolerance on carrot, roots, postharvest with an expiration/
revocation date of November 2, 2011;

disulfoton tolerances on bean, lima; bean, snap, succulent; broccoli;
Brussels sprouts; cabbage; cauliflower; cotton, undelinted seed; and
asparagus with expiration dates of December 31, 2013; disulfoton
tolerances on lettuce, head and lettuce, leaf wtih expiration/
revocation dates of December 31, 2014; disulfoton tolerance on coffee,
green bean with an expiration/revocation date of June 30, 2014;
methamidophos tolerances on broccoli and cabbage with expiration/
revocation dates of December 31, 2012 and cotton, undelinted seed;
tomato; and potato with expiration/revocation dates of December 31,
2013; methyl bromide tolerance on timothy, hay, postharvest with an
expiration/revocation date of October 19, 2010; and methyl bromide
tolerances on alfalfa, hay, postharvest and cotton, undelinted seed
with expiration/revocation dates of October 31, 2011. The Agency
believes that these revocation dates allow users to exhaust stocks and
allow sufficient time for passage of treated commodities through the
channels of trade.
    Any commodities listed in the regulatory text of this document that
are treated with the pesticides subject to this final rule, and that
are in the channels of trade following the tolerance revocations, shall
be subject to FFDCA section 408(1)(5), as established by FQPA. Under
this unit, any residues of these pesticides in or on such food shall
not render the food adulterated so long as it is shown to the
satisfaction of the Food and Drug Administration that:
    1. The residue is present as the result of an application or use of
the pesticide at a time and in a manner that was lawful under FIFRA.
    2. The residue does not exceed the level that was authorized at the
time of the application or use to be present on the food under a
tolerance or exemption from tolerance. Evidence to show that food was
lawfully treated may include records that verify the dates that the
pesticide was applied to such food.

III. International Residue Limits

    In making its tolerance decisions, EPA seeks to harmonize U.S.
tolerances with international standards whenever possible, consistent
with U.S. food safety standards and agricultural practices. EPA
considers the international maximum residue limits (MRLs) established
by the Codex Alimentarius Commission (Codex), as required by FFDCA
section 408(b)(4). The Codex Alimentarius is a joint U.N. Food and
Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization food standards
program, and it is recognized as an international food safety
standards-setting organization in trade agreements to which the United
States is a party. EPA may establish a tolerance that is different from
a Codex MRL; however, FFDCA section 408(b)(4) requires that EPA explain
the reasons for departing from the Codex level.
     The Codex has not established a MRL for cacodylic acid, dicamba,
EPTC, hexazinone, N-octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide, picloram,
propazine, pyrethrum, thiodicarb, and thiophanate-methyl, or MRL in or
on corn, pop, grain; corn, pop, stover; or pineapple for ethoprop; or
MRL in or on citrus, dried pulp; citrus, oil; fruit, citrus, group 10;
or garlic for fenamiphos; or MRL for citrus, dried pulp; cranberry;
peanut, hay; peanut, postharvest; raisins; safflower, seed; safflower,
refined oil; sunflower, seed, postharvest; fat, meat, and meat
byproducts of cattle, goats, hogs, horses, poultry, and sheep; egg;
milk, fat; or nonmedicated cattle feed concentrate blocks for
malathion; or MRL in or on alfalfa, hay, postharvest; cotton,
undelinted seed; mango, postharvest; papaya, postharvest; or timothy,
hay, postharvest for bromide ion or methyl bromide; or MRL in or on
leek; strawberry; or watercress for methomyl; or MRL in or on broccoli;
Brussels sprouts; cabbage; lettuce; or tomato for methamidophos.
     The Codex has established MRLs for dicloran in or on commodities
including carrot, postharvest at 15 mg/kg. This MRL is different than
the current tolerance established for dicloran at 10 ppm in the United
States, which EPA is revoking in this final rule. The tolerance was
reassessed in the RED at 10 ppm and was harmonized with Codex at that
time.
     The Codex has established MRLs for diquat in or on commodities
including sorghum at 2 mg/kg and soya bean (dry) at 0.2 mg/kg. These
MRLs are the same as the current tolerances for diquat in or on
sorghum, grain, grain and soybean, seed in the United States, which EPA
is revoking in this final rule.
     The Codex has established MRLs for disulfoton in or on commodities
including asparagus at 0.02 mg/kg; cotton seed at 0.1 mg/kg. These MRLs
are different than the current tolerances established for disulfoton in
or on asparagus at 0.1 ppm and cotton, undelinted seed at 0.75 ppm in
the United States, both of which EPA is revoking in this final rule.
The tolerances were reassessed in the RED and were not harmonized with
Codex levels because of differences in good agricultural practices. The
Codex MRL for disulfoton in or on coffee beans is the same as the
current tolerance for disulfoton in or on coffee, green bean, which EPA
is revoking in this final rule.
     The Codex has established MRLs for methamidophos in or on
commodities including cauliflower at 0.5 mg/kg; cotton seed at 0.2 mg/
kg; chili peppers at 2 mg/kg; sweet peppers at 1 mg/kg; and potato at
0.05 mg/kg. These MRLs are different than the current tolerances
established for methamidophos from methamidophos application in or on
cauliflower at 1.0 ppm; cotton, undelinted seed at 0.1 ppm; pepper at
1.0 ppm; and potato at 0.1 ppm in the United States, all of which EPA
is revoking in this final rule. The tolerances were reassessed in the
RED and were not harmonized with the Codex levels because of
differences in good agricultural practices. While methamidophos is a
metabolite of acephate and EPA is re-instating certain methamidophos
tolerances as a result of the application of acephate, Codex has
established MRLs for acephate but for compliance purposes has defined
them as only acephate residues.
     The Codex has established MRLs for phosmet in or on commodities
including cotton seed at 0.05 mg/kg. This MRL is different than the
current tolerance established for phosmet in or on cotton, undelinted
seed at 0.1 ppm in the United States, which EPA is revoking in this
final rule. The tolerance was reassessed in the RED and was not
harmonized with the Codex level because of differences in good
agricultural practices and tolerance expression where total residues
for U.S. tolerances included phosmet's oxygen analog.

IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    In this final rule, EPA establishes tolerances under FFDCA section
408(e), and also modifies and revokes specific tolerances established
under FFDCA section 408. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has
exempted these types of actions (i.e., establishment and modification
of a tolerance and tolerance revocation for which extraordinary
circumstances do not exist) from review under Executive Order 12866,
entitled Regulatory Planning and Review (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993).
Because this rule has been exempted from review under Executive Order
12866 due to its lack of significance, this rule is not subject to
Executive Order 13211, entitled Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (66 FR 28355,
May 22, 2001). This final rule does not contain any information
collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., or impose any

enforceable duty or contain any unfunded mandate as described under
Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA) (Public Law
104-4). Nor does it require any special considerations as required by
Executive Order 12898, entitled Federal Actions to Address
Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income
Populations (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994); or OMB review or any other
Agency action under Executive Order 13045, entitled Protection of
Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks (62 FR 19885,
April 23, 1997). This action does not involve any technical standards
that would require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus
standards pursuant to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer
and Advancement Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104-13, section 12(d)
(15 U.S.C. 272 note). Pursuant to the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
(5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.), the Agency previously assessed whether
establishment of tolerances, exemptions from tolerances, raising of
tolerance levels, expansion of exemptions, or revocations might
significantly impact a substantial number of small entities and
concluded that, as a general matter, these actions do not impose a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
These analyses for tolerance establishments and modifications, and for
tolerance revocations were published on May 4, 1981 (46 FR 24950) and
on December 17, 1997 (62 FR 66020) (FRL-5753-1), respectively, and were
provided to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business
Administration. Taking into account this analysis, and available
information concerning the pesticides listed in this rule, the Agency
hereby certifies that this final rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. In a
memorandum dated May 25, 2001, EPA determined that eight conditions
must all be satisfied in order for an import tolerance or tolerance
exemption revocation to adversely affect a significant number of small
entity importers, and that there is a negligible joint probability of
all eight conditions holding simultaneously with respect to any
particular revocation. (This Agency document is available in the docket
of the proposed rule, as mentioned in Unit II.A.). Furthermore, for the
pesticides named in this final rule, the Agency knows of no
extraordinary circumstances that exist as to the present revocations
that would change EPA's previous analysis. In addition, the Agency has
determined that this action will not have a substantial direct effect
on States, on the relationship between the national government and the
States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132,
entitled Federalism (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999). Executive Order
13132 requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure
``meaningful and timely input by State and local officials in the
development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.''
``Policies that have federalism implications'' is defined in the
Executive order to include regulations that have ``substantial direct
effects on the States, on the relationship between the national
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various levels of government.'' This final
rule directly regulates growers, food processors, food handlers, and
food retailers, not States. This action does not alter the
relationships or distribution of power and responsibilities established
by Congress in the preemption provisions of section 408(n)(4) of FFDCA.
For these same reasons, the Agency has determined that this rule does
not have any ``tribal implications'' as described in Executive Order
13175, entitled Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). Executive Order 13175,
requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure ``meaningful
and timely input by tribal officials in the development of regulatory
policies that have tribal implications.'' ``Policies that have tribal
implications'' is defined in the Executive order to include regulations
that have ``substantial direct effects on one or more Indian tribes, on
the relationship between the Federal Government and the Indian tribes,
or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the
Federal Government and Indian tribes.'' This rule will not have
substantial direct effects on tribal governments, on the relationship
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes, as specified in Executive Order 13175.
Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not apply to this rule.

V. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to
the Comptroller General of the United States. EPA will submit a report
containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate,
the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the
United States prior to publication of this final rule in the Federal
Register. This final rule is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5
U.S.C. 804(2).

    (2) A tolerance of 0.02 ppm is established for residues of
acephate, O,S-dimethyl acetyl phosphoramidothioate, including its
metabolites and degradates other than methamidophos, in or on all food
items (other than those already covered by a higher tolerance as a
result of use on growing crops) in food handling establishments where
food and food products are held, processed, prepared and served,
including food service, manufacturing and processing establishments,
such as restaurants, cafeterias, supermarkets, bakeries, breweries,
dairies, meat slaughtering and packing plants, and canneries, where
application of acephate shall be limited solely to spot and/or crack
and crevice treatment (a coarse, low-pressure spray shall be used to
avoid atomization or splashing of the spray for spot treatments;
equipment capable of delivering a pin-stream of insecticide shall be
used for crack and crevice treatments). Spray concentration shall be
limited to a maximum of 1.0 percent active ingredient. Contamination of
food or food-contact surfaces shall be avoided. Compliance with the
tolerance levels specified in this paragraph is to be determined by
measuring only acephate, O,S-dimethyl acetyl phosphoramidothioate, in
or on the commodity.

4. Revise Sec.  180.117 to read as follows:

Sec.  180.117  S-Ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate; tolerances for residues.

    (a) General. Tolerances are established for residues of the
herbicide S-ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate, including its metabolites and
degradates, in or on the commodities in the following table. Compliance
with the tolerance levels specified in this paragraph is to be
determined by measuring only the sum of S-ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate,
S-ethyl (2-hydroxypropyl)propylcarbamothioate, S-(2-

6. In Sec.  180.183 revising the section heading, and paragraphs (a)
and (c) to read as follows:

Sec.  180.183  Disulfoton; tolerances for residues.

    (a) General. Tolerances are established for residues of the
insecticide disulfoton, O,O-diethyl S-(2-(ethylthio)ethyl)
phosphorodithioate, including its metabolites and degradates, in or on
the commodities in the following table. Compliance with the tolerance
levels specified in this paragraph is to be determined by measuring
only the sum of disulfoton, O,O-diethyl S-(2-(ethylthio)ethyl)
phosphorodithioate, and its metabolites demeton-S, O,O-diethyl S-(2-
(ethylthio)ethyl) phosphorothioate; disulfoton sulfoxide, O,O-diethyl
S-(2-(ethylsulfinyl)ethyl) phosphorodithioate; disulfoton oxygen analog
sulfoxide, O,O-diethyl S-(2-(ethylsulfinyl)ethyl) phosphorothioate,
disulfoton sulfone, O,O-diethyl S-(2-(ethylsulfonyl)ethyl)
phosphorodithioate; and disulfoton oxygen analog sulfone, O,O-diethyl
S-(2-(ethylsulfonyl)ethyl) phosphorothioate; calculated as the
stoichiometric equivalent of disulfoton, in or on the commodity.
