of Receipt of Requests To Voluntarily Cancel Certain Pesticide
Registrations.
It
is difficult to know if EPA included this as Fluvalinate
or Tau-fluvalinate. We have asked for clarification and
when we receive it we will amend it as necessary. |

AGRO - Petition
for Proposed Pesticide Tolerance. EPA proposes to establish
tolerances for residues of the insecticide tau-fluvalinate
in or on the raw agriculture commodities (RAC) apples at 0.5
ppm; oriental pears at 0.5 ppm; and kiw at 0.1 ppm; , to increase
the tolerance for the insecticide tau-fluvalinate in or on
the RAC fat of cattle at 0.1 ppm; and to change the chemical
nomenclature in the tolerance. |
