SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Executive Summary
A. Does this action apply to me?
You may be potentially affected by this action if you are an
agricultural producer, food manufacturer, or pesticide manufacturer.
The following list of North American Industrial Classification System
(NAICS) codes is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides a
guide to help readers determine whether this document might apply to
them:
<bullet> Crop production (NAICS code 111).
<bullet> Animal production (NAICS code 112).
<bullet> Food manufacturing (NAICS code 311).
<bullet> Pesticide manufacturing (NAICS code 32532).
If you have any questions regarding the applicability of this
proposed action to a particular entity, consult the person listed under
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
B. What action is the Agency taking?
EPA is finalizing several tolerance actions that the Agency
proposed in the Federal Register of July 22, 2024 (89 FR 59012) (FRL-
11773-01-OCSPP), because EPA previously determined these tolerance
actions were necessary or appropriate during registration review of the
pesticide active ingredients identified in Unit III. of this final
rule. The tolerance actions for each pesticide active ingredient are
described in detail in Unit III. of the proposed rule and are not
repeated in this final rule. This final rulemaking addresses the
previously proposed changes, and where applicable, addresses additional
changes initiated by public comments.
The Agency received five comments on the proposed rule from five
contributors. The public comments did initiate changes to the
regulatory text of this final rulemaking. For a detailed summary of the
comments received and Agency responses, see Unit II.
C. What is EPA's authority for taking this action?
FFDCA section 408(e), 21 U.S.C. 346a(e), authorizes EPA to
establish, modify, or revoke tolerances or exemptions from the
requirement of a tolerance on its own initiative. After providing a 60-
day public comment period, EPA may finalize the rule. EPA provided a
60-day comment period, which closed on September 20, 2024, and is now
finalizing the actions previously proposed in the proposed rule.
FFDCA section 408(b)(2)(A)(i) allows EPA to establish a tolerance
(the legal limit for a pesticide chemical residue in or on a food) only
if EPA determines that the tolerance is ``safe.'' FFDCA section
408(b)(2)(A)(ii) defines ``safe'' to mean that ``there is a reasonable
certainty that no harm will result from aggregate exposure to the
pesticide chemical residue, including all anticipated dietary exposures
and all other exposures for which there is reliable information.'' This
includes exposure through drinking water and in residential settings
but does not include occupational exposure. FFDCA section 408(b)(2)(C)
requires EPA to give special
[[Page 8101]]
consideration to exposure of infants and children to the pesticide
chemical residue in establishing a tolerance and to ``ensure that there
is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to infants and
children from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue. . .
.''
D. How can I file an objection or hearing request?
Under FFDCA section 408(g), 21 U.S.C. 346a(g), any person may file
an objection to any aspect of this regulation and may also request a
hearing on those objections. If you fail to file an objection to the
final rule within the time period specified in the final rule, you will
have waived the right to raise any issues resolved in the final rule.
You must file your objection or request a hearing on this regulation in
accordance with the instructions provided in 40 CFR part 178. To ensure
proper receipt by EPA, you must identify the docket ID number of this
final rule, and the chemical specific docket ID number as provided in
Unit III. in the subject line on the first page of your submission. All
objections and requests for a hearing must be in writing and must be
received by the Hearing Clerk on or before April 21, 2026.
The EPA's Office of Administrative Law Judges (OALJ), in which the
Hearing Clerk is housed, urges parties to file and serve documents by
electronic means only, notwithstanding any other particular
requirements set forth in other procedural rules governing those
proceedings. See ``Revised Order Urging Electronic Filing and
Service,'' dated June 22, 2023, which can be found at <a href="https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2023-06/2023-06-22%20-%20revised%20order%20urging%20electronic%20filing%20and%20service.pdf">https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2023-06/2023-06-22%20-%20revised%20order%20urging%20electronic%20filing%20and%20service.pdf</a>.
Although the EPA's regulations require submission via U.S. Mail or hand
delivery, the EPA intends to treat submissions filed via electronic
means as properly filed submissions; therefore, the EPA believes the
preference for submission via electronic means will not be prejudicial.
When submitting documents to the OALJ electronically, a person should
utilize the OALJ e-filing system at <a href="https://yosemite.epa.gov/oa/eab/eab-alj_upload.nsf">https://yosemite.epa.gov/oa/eab/eab-alj_upload.nsf</a>.
II. Background
In the proposed rule, EPA proposed several tolerance actions that
the Agency previously determined were necessary or appropriate during
registration review of the pesticide active ingredients identified in
Unit III. of the proposed rule. This final rule serves to implement the
previously proposed changes and, where noted, incorporates any
necessary changes initiated by public comment.
A. Public Comments Received and EPA's Responses
During the public comment period for the changes in the proposed
rule, which closed on September 20, 2024, EPA received five comments
from five sources. The following is a summary of the comments received
and the Agency's responses to those comments.
Comment: EPA received one comment from Syngenta Crop Protection,
LLC requesting revisions based on current OECD rounding class practice
for the tolerances for cyproconazole on cattle, goat, horse, and sheep
livers that were not included in the proposed rule. The comment also
requested clarification on the Agency's rationale for the proposal to
revise new tolerances for pinoxaden on animal fat, meat, and meat
byproducts and whether the revision was proposed for aligning with
Canadian maximum reside limits (MRLs).
EPA's Response: In response to the comment on revisions to cattle,
goat, horse, and sheep liver tolerances for cyproconazole to be
consistent with OECD rounding class practices, EPA is including in this
final rule rounded values for the cattle, goat, horse, and sheep liver
tolerances in 40 CFR 180.485 paragraph (a)(3) at 0.5 ppm by removing
trailing zeroes, which is also supported by the human health risk
assessment.
The proposed rule included the establishment of animal fat, meat,
and meat byproduct tolerances for pinoxaden at 0.04 ppm. EPA proposed
establishing these tolerances because, during registration review, it
was determined that the tolerances were needed to cover potential
residues on treated feed items at the same level as the current
tolerances for cattle based on evaluation of available cattle feeding
studies, calculated dietary burdens, and livestock metabolism studies.
The Canadian MRLs for animal fat, meat, and meat byproduct tolerances
for pinoxaden are equivalent to the tolerance levels of 0.04 ppm and
are considered harmonized.
Comment: Four individual commenters submitted comments on the
proposed rule generally supporting updates to pesticide tolerances.
Individual comments generally questioned the value of updating
commodity definitions and requested additional public comment
opportunities. One commenter referenced potential impacts on growers
and stakeholders, specifically about increased costs for small-scale
farmers from compliance with the updated tolerance requirements.
EPA's Response: EPA appreciates the comments on the proposed rule.
Since the commenters did not request specific changes from the
proposal, the Agency is not making specific changes in this final rule
in response to these comments. Regarding potential impacts to growers
from increased costs with the updated tolerance requirements, the
commenter did not provide a specific tolerance or commodity expected to
impose this cost. Since the commenter did not suggest any specific
changes, the Agency is not changing its determination that the actions
in this final rule have no net burden on small entities subject to this
rulemaking. As discussed in the proposed rule, the Agency's
determination takes into account analyses published in the Federal
Register in May 4, 1981 (46 FR 24950) (FRL-1809-5) and December 17,
1997 (62 FR 66020) (FRL-5753-1). The potential for increased costs for
small-scale farmers from compliance with the updated tolerance
requirements is also discussed in Unit V.D of this final rule.
B. EPA's Safety Determination
As noted in Unit II.D. of the proposed rule, and the supporting
registration review documents, EPA has assessed the individual risks
from exposure to the pesticide active ingredients identified and
discussed in Unit III. of this final rulemaking. After fully
considering comments on the proposed rule, EPA is confirming the
proposed safety findings contained in Unit III. of the proposed rule.
For further detail about pesticide-specific registration review
safety findings, see the public docket that has been opened for each
pesticide, which is available online at <a href="https://www.regulations.gov">https://www.regulations.gov</a>
using the docket ID number listed in Unit III. of this final
rulemaking.
C. Analytical Enforcement Methodology
Adequate enforcement methodology, as described in the supporting
documents, is available to enforce the tolerance expressions for the
pesticide active ingredients identified in Unit III.
D. Conclusion
Therefore, EPA is finalizing the tolerance actions proposed in the
proposed rule. For Cyproconazole, EPA is also updating tolerance values
for cattle, goat, horse, and sheep liver to remove trailing zeroes to
reflect current OECD rounding class practice.
[[Page 8102]]
III. Final Tolerance Actions
EPA is finalizing the tolerance actions identified in this unit.
All tolerance values expressed in the regulatory text of this rule,
modified or otherwise, reflect current OECD rounding class practice.
A. 40 CFR 180.209; Terbacil, Case 0039 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-2011-
0054)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to revise the current tolerance
expression, revise commodity definitions to the updated ``Peppermint,
fresh leaves'' and ``Spearmint, fresh leaves'', and modify tolerance
values to reflect OECD's rounding class practices.
B. 40 CFR 180.210; Bromacil; Case 0041 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-2012-
0445)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to revise the current tolerance
expression and the commodity definition to the updated ``Fruit, citrus,
group 10-10''.
C. 40 CFR 180.368; Metolachlor and S-Metolachlor; Case 0001 (Docket ID
No. EPA-HQ-OPP-2014-0772)
EPA is finalizing its proposal to revise the commodity definitions
to the updated ``Beet, sugar, leaves'', ``Cilantro, fresh leaves'',
``Berry, low growing, subgroup 13-07G, except cranberry'', ``Grass,
forage, fodder and hay, group 17, forage'', ``Grass, forage, fodder and
hay, group 17, hay'', and ``Vegetable, brassica, head and stem, group
5-16''.
EPA is also finalizing its proposals to add the chemical name to
the title in 40 CFR 180.368 and to modify tolerance values to reflect
OECD's rounding class practices.
D. 40 CFR 180.370; Etridiazole; Case 0009 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-
2014-0414)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to revise the current tolerance
expression, revising the chemical name to the title in 40 CFR 180.370,
and modify the tolerance level for tomatoes from 0.15 ppm to 0.1 ppm.
EPA is modifying the tolerance level for etridiazole on tomatoes due to
new data submitted by the registrant that shows no measurable residues
and the Agency is not able to set a tolerance level below the limit of
quantitation (LOQ) of 0.1 ppm. Since the tolerance level is being
lowered, EPA is establishing an expiration date of August 19, 2026 for
the tolerance at 0.15 ppm for ``Tomato''.
E. 40 CFR 180.417; Triclopyr; Case 2710 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-2014-
0576)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to revise the commodity definitions
to the updated ``Fish, freshwater, finfish'', ``Fish, shellfish,
mollusc'', ``Fish, shellfish, crustacean'', ``Grass, forage, fodder and
hay, group 17, forage'', ``Grass, forage, fodder and hay, group 17,
hay'' and modifying tolerance levels to reflect OECD's rounding
practices. EPA is also finalizing its proposals to establish a new
paragraph for the fish and shellfish commodities in (a)(1) and revise
the tolerance expression.
F. 40 CFR 180.435; Deltamethrin; Case 7414 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-
2009-0637)
EPA is finalizing its proposal to modify the tolerances for
``Grain, cereal, group 15, except sweet corn'' and ``Tomato'' to
harmonize with Codex MRLs.
To correct typographical errors, EPA is revising the entries in
this rule for ``Vegetable, root, except sugar beet, Subgroup IB'' to
``Vegetable, root, except sugar beet, subgroup 1B'' and ``Vegetable,
tuberous and corm, Subgroup IC'' to ``Vegetable, tuberous and corm,
subgroup 1C''.
G. 40 CFR 180.436; Cyfluthrin and Isomer Beta-Cyfluthrin; Case 7405
(Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-2010-0684)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to revise the current tolerance
expression and convert crop group tolerances to the updated crop groups
``Brassica, leafy greens, subgroup 4-16B''; ``Fruit, citrus, group 10-
10''; ``Fruit, pome, group 11-10''; ``Fruit, stone, group 12-12'';
``Leaf petiole vegetable subgroup 22B''; ``Leafy greens subgroup 4-
16A''; ``Nut, tree, group 14-12''; ``Vegetable, brassica, head and
stem, group 5-16''; ``Vegetable, fruiting, group 8-10'', to establish
tolerances for the commodities ``Celtuce'' and ``Fennel, florence,
fresh leaves and stalk'' and ``Kohlrabi'', and remove the tolerances
for ``Lettuce, head''; ``Lettuce, leaf''; ``Mustard greens'';
``Pepper''; ``Pistachio''; ``Tomato''; and ``Turnip, greens''.
EPA is also finalizing its proposal to modify the tolerances for
``Hog, meat byproducts'' and ``Fruit, citrus, group 10-10'' to
harmonize with Codex MRLs.
H. 40 CFR 180.485; Cyproconazole; Case 7011 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-
2015-0462)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to revise commodity definitions to
the updated ``Coffee, green bean'', ``Cattle, meat byproducts, except
liver'', ``Goat, meat byproducts, except liver'', ``Grain, aspirated
fractions'', ``Horse, meat byproducts, except liver'', ``Sheep, meat
byproducts, except liver'', and ``Wheat, milled byproducts''.
EPA is also finalizing its proposal to modify the tolerance for
``Wheat, grain'' to harmonize with Codex MRLs.
In response to public comments, EPA is also in this final rule
modifying values for cattle, goat, horse, and sheep liver tolerances in
paragraph (a)(3) from 0.50 ppm to 0.5 ppm to be consistent with OECD
rounding class practices, which was discussed in the supporting
registration review documents.
I. 40 CFR 180.535; Fluroxypyr; Case 7248 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-
2014-0570)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to revise the current tolerance
expression and to revise the commodity definitions to the updated
``Grass, forage, fodder and hay, group 17, forage'' and ``Grass,
forage, fodder and hay, group 17, hay''.
EPA is also finalizing its proposal to remove the tolerance for
``Barley, hay'' and adding a tolerance for ``Barley, forage'' that was
erroneously removed in a September 30, 1998 rulemaking (63 FR 5216)
(FRL-6033-49).
J. 40 CFR 180.585; Pyraflufen-Ethyl; Case 7259 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-
OPP-2014-0415)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to redesignate paragraph (a) as
(a)(1) and establishing a new paragraph (a)(2) under paragraph (a) for
livestock commodities and revise the current tolerance expression.
EPA is also finalizing its proposal to revise the current commodity
definitions and modified value for ``Grass, forage, group 17'' and
``Grass, hay, group 17'' to the updated ``Grass, forage, fodder and
hay, group 17''.
K. 40 CFR 180.593; Etoxazole; Case 7616 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-2014-
0133)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to revise commodity definitions to
the updated ``Peppermint, fresh leaves'' and ``Spearmint, fresh
leaves'' and to modify tolerances for ``Almond, hulls'', ``Peppermint,
fresh leaves'', and ``Spearmint, fresh leaves'' to harmonize with Codex
MRLs.
L. 40 CFR 180.599; Acequinocyl; Case 7621 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-
2015-0203)
EPA is finalizing its proposal to revise the commodity definition
from ``Citrus, oil'' to ``Fruit, citrus, group 10-10, oil.''
[[Page 8103]]
M. 40 CFR 180.611; Pinoxaden; Case 7266 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-2015-
603)
EPA is finalizing its proposals to revise the current tolerance
expression in (a)(1) and (a)(2) and to modify tolerances for ``Barley,
hay'', ``Barley, straw'', ``Wheat, hay'', and ``Wheat, straw'', to
harmonize with Codex MRLs.
EPA is also finalizing its proposal to establish new tolerances in
paragraph (a)(2) for livestock commodities ``Goat, fat''; ``Goat,
meat''; ``Goat, meat byproducts''; ``Hog, fat''; ``Hog, meat''; ``Hog,
meat byproducts''; ``Horse, fat''; ``Horse, meat''; ``Horse, meat
byproducts''; ``Sheep, fat''; ``Sheep, meat''; and ``Sheep, meat
byproducts'' since during registration review it was determined that
the tolerances were needed to cover potential residues on treated feed
items at the same level as the current tolerances for cattle.
N. 40 CFR 180.613; Flonicamid; Case 7436 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-
2014-0777)
EPA is finalizing its proposal to revise commodity definitions to
the updated ``Fennel, florence, fresh leaves and stalk'', ``Peppermint,
fresh leaves'', and ``Spearmint, fresh leaves''.
O. 40 CFR 180.647; d-Phenothrin; Case 0426 (Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OPP-
2011-0539)
EPA is finalizing its proposal to revise the current tolerance
expression to describe more clearly the coverage of the tolerances and
the method for measuring compliance.
IV. Effective and Expiration Date(s)
These tolerance actions are effective on the date of publication of
the final rule in the Federal Register. For actions in the final rule
that lower or revoke existing tolerances, EPA has set an expiration
date for the existing tolerance of 180 days after the date of
publication of the final rule in the Federal Register, to allow a
reasonable interval for producers in exporting members of the World
Trade Organization's (WTO's) Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) Measures
Agreement to adapt to the requirements.
V. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
Additional information about these statutes and Executive Orders
can be found at <a href="https://www.epa.gov/laws-regulations/laws-and-executive-orders">https://www.epa.gov/laws-regulations/laws-and-executive-orders</a>.
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review
This action is exempt from review under Executive Order 12866 (58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993), because it establishes or modifies a
pesticide tolerance or a tolerance exemption under FFDCA section 408.
This exemption also applies to tolerance revocations for which
extraordinary circumstances do not exist. As such, this exemption
applies to the tolerance revocations in this final rule because the
Agency knows of no extraordinary circumstances that warrant
reconsideration of this exemption for those tolerance revocations.
B. Executive Order 14192: Unleashing Prosperity Through Deregulation
Executive Order 14192 (90 FR 9065, February 6, 2025) does not apply
because actions that establish a tolerance under FFDCA section 408 are
exempted from review under Executive Order 12866.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
This action does not impose an information collection burden under
the PRA 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., because it does not contain any
information collection activities.
D. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)
I certify that this action will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities under the RFA, 5
U.S.C. 601 et seq. In making this determination, EPA concludes that the
impact of concern for this action is any significant adverse economic
impact on small entities and that the Agency is certifying that this
action will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities because the action has no net burden on small
entities subject to this rulemaking. As discussed in the proposed rule,
this determination takes into account several EPA analyses of potential
small entity impacts for tolerance actions. EPA received a comment on
the proposed rule concerning the potential for increased costs for
small-scale farmers from compliance with the updated tolerance
requirements, however the commenter did not provide a specific
tolerance or commodity that would impose this cost. Since the commenter
did not identify specific changes to the proposed rule or proposed
actions or specific extraordinary circumstances that exist that would
change EPA's previous analyses, the Agency is not changing this
determination.
E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)
This action does not contain an unfunded mandate of $100 million or
more (in 1995 dollars and adjusted annually for inflation) as described
in UMRA, 2 U.S.C. 1531-1538, and does not significantly or uniquely
affect small governments. The action imposes no enforceable duty on any
State, local or Tribal governments or the private sector.
F. Executive Order 13132: Federalism
This action does not have federalism implications as specified in
Executive Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 1999), because it will
not 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.
G. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments
This action does not have tribal implications as specified in
Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), because it will
not have substantial direct effects on Tribal governments, 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.
H. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks
This action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885,
April 23, 1997) because it is not a significant regulatory action under
section 3(f)(1) of Executive Order 12866 (See Unit V.A.), and because
EPA does not believe the environmental health or safety risks addressed
by this action present a disproportionate risk to children. However,
EPA's 2021 Policy on Children's Health applies to this action.
This rule finalizes tolerance actions under the FFDCA, which
requires EPA to give special consideration to exposure of infants and
children to the pesticide chemical residue in establishing a tolerance
and to ``ensure that there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will
result to infants and children from aggregate exposure to the pesticide
chemical residue . . .'' (FFDCA 408(b)(2)(C)). The Agency's
consideration is documented in the pesticide-specific registration
review documents, located in each chemical docket at <a href="https://www.regulations.gov">https://www.regulations.gov</a>.
[[Page 8104]]
I. Executive Order 13211: Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution or Use
This action is not subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355)
(May 22, 2001) because it is not a significant regulatory action under
Executive Order 12866.
J. National Technology Transfer Advancement Act (NTTAA)
This action does not involve technical standards that would require
Agency consideration under NTTAA section 12(d), 15 U.S.C. 272.
K. Congressional Review Act (CRA)
This action is subject to the CRA, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., and EPA
will submit a rule report to each House of the Congress and to the
Comptroller General of the United States. This action is not a ``major
rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
