5. 11. PP 6F4621. Sandoz Agro, Inc., 1300 East Touhy Ave., Des Plaines, IL 60018-3300, proposes to amend 40 CFR 180.356 by adding permanent tolerances for the combined residues of the herbicide norflurazon [4-chloro-5-(methylamino)-2-(alpha, alpha, alpha-triflurom -tolyl)-3(2H)-pyridazinone] and its desmethyl metabolite [4-chloro-5- (amino)-2-(alpha, alpha, alpha-trifluro-m-tolyl)-3(2H)-pyridazinone] in or on bermudagrass forage at 3.0 ppm and bermudagrass hay at 2.0 ppm. The proposed analytical method for determining residues is gas chromotography with a Ni-63 electron capture detector. (PM 23)
