Potassium Benzoate; Exemption From the Requirement of a Tolerance
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement
of a tolerance for residues of potassium benzoate (Cas No. 582-25-2)
under 40 CFR 180.910 when used as an inert ingredient (preservative) in
pesticide formulations applied to growing crops and raw agricultural
commodities after harvest, and under 40 CFR 180.930 when used as an
inert ingredient (preservative) in pesticide formulations applied to
animals (used for food). Landis International, on behalf of Whitmire
Micro-Gen submitted two petitions to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug,
and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), requesting establishment of an exemption from
the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to
establish a maximum permissible level for residues of potassium
benzoate.
DATES: This regulation is effective March 9, 2011. Objections and
requests for hearings must be received on or before May 9, 2011, and
must be filed in accordance with the instructions provided in 40 CFR
part 178 (see also Unit I.C. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION).
