Abstract
This regulation extends time-limited tolerances for residues of the pesticides sodium salt of acifluorfen in or on Beet, sugar, roots and Beet, sugar, leaves; thiamethoxam in or on Rice, grain and Rice, straw; and clothianidin in or on Rice, grain. These actions are in response to EPA's granting of emergency exemptions under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) authorizing use of these pesticides. In addition, 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.
