II. Summary of Petitioned-For Tolerance In the Federal Register of May 8, 2020
85 FR 27346 FRL1000838, EPA
issued a document pursuant to FFDCA
section 408d3, 21 U.S.C. 346ad3, announcing the filing of a pesticide petition PP 9E8803 by IR4, Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, 500
College Road East, Suite 201W, Princeton, NJ 08540. The petition requested that 40 CFR 180.441 be amended by establishing tolerances for residues of the herbicide quizalofop ethyl convertible to 2-methoxy-6chloroquinoxaline, expressed as quizalofop ethyl, in or on carinata at 1.5
parts per million ppm; cottonseed subgroup 20C at 0.1 ppm; fruit, pome, group 1110 at 0.1 ppm; fruit, small, vine climbing, except fuzzy kiwifruit, subgroup 13 07F at 0.1 ppm; fruit, stone, group 1212 at 0.1 ppm; pennycress, meal at 2 ppm; pennycress, seed at 1.5
ppm; and sunflower subgroup 20B at 3
ppm. Additionally, the petition requested, upon approval of the above tolerances, to remove the existing tolerances in 40 CFR 180.441a in or on cotton, undelinted seed at 0.1 ppm and sunflower, seed at 1.9 ppm. That document referenced a summary of the petition prepared by AMVAC Chemical Corporation, the registrant, which is available in the docket, http
www.regulations.gov. Two comments were received on the notice of filing.
EPAs response to these comments is discussed in Unit IV.C.
Based upon review of the data supporting the petition, EPA corrected several tolerance definitions and is not establishing a tolerance on pennycress, meal, as proposed by the petitioner. The reasons for these changes are explained in Unit IV.D.
