Beauveria bassiana HF23; Amendment of Exemption from the
Requirement of a Tolerance

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This regulation amends an exemption from the requirement of a
tolerance for residues of the microbial insecticide. Beauveria bassiana
HF23 (40 CFR 180.1273) on all food commodities when used to treat
chicken and livestock facilities, from which manure will eventually be
composted and used as fertilizer on agricultural crops. JABB of the
Carolinas submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), requesting this amendment of the exemption from
the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to
establish a maximum permissible level for residues of Beauveria
bassiana HF23.

DATES: This regulation is effective March 5, 2010. Objections and
requests for hearings must be received on or before May 4, 2010, and
