346ad3, announcing the filing of a pesticide petition PP 0E8861 by IR4, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, 500 College Road East, Suite 201W, Princeton, NJ 08540. The petition requested that 40 CFR 180.680 be amended by establishing tolerances for residues of the sum of fluensulfone, 5-chloro-2-3,4,4- trifluoro-3-buten-1ylsulfonylthiazole and its metabolite, 3,4,4-trifluoro-but-3-ene-1-sulfonic acid, calculated as the stoichiometric equivalent of fluensulfone, in or on the commodities: Beet, sugar, dried pulp at 0.3 parts per million ppm; Beet, sugar, leaves at 4 ppm; Beet, sugar, molasses at 1.5 ppm; Beet, sugar, roots at 0.2
ppm; Brassica, leafy greens, subgroup 416B at 20 ppm; Celtuce at 4 ppm;
Fennel, Florence, fresh leaves and stalk at 4 ppm; Kohlrabi at 1.5 ppm; Leafy greens subgroup 416A at 4 ppm; Leaf petiole vegetable subgroup 22B at 4
ppm; and Vegetable, Brassica, head and stem, group 516 at 1.5 ppm. The petition also requested to remove established tolerances for residues of the sum of fluensulfone, 5-chloro-2-3,4,4trifluoro-3-buten-1-ylsulfonylthiazole and its metabolite, 3,4,4-trifluoro-but-3ene-1-sulfonic acid, calculated as the stoichiometric equivalent of fluensulfone, in or on the following commodities: Brassica, head and stem, subgroup 5A at 1.5 ppm; Brassica, leafy greens, subgroup 5B at 20 ppm; and Vegetables, leafy, except Brassica, group 4 at 4 ppm because these commodities would be covered by the new tolerances established for the crop group conversions above. That document referenced a summary of the petition prepared by IR4, the petitioner, which is available in the docket, http
www.regulations.gov. There were no comments received in response to the notice of filing.
Based upon review of the data supporting the petition, EPA is establishing one tolerance at a different level than petitioned for. A discussion of this revision to the petitioned-for tolerance can be found in section IV.C.
In addition, IR4 initially petitioned for tolerances for multiple sugar beet commodities but withdrew their request for these tolerances and the new use on sugar beet on April 8, 2021. EPA is therefore not establishing tolerances for the sugar beet commodities.
III. Aggregate Risk Assessment and Determination of Safety Section 408b2Ai of FFDCA
allows EPA to establish a tolerance the legal limit for a pesticide chemical residue in or on a food only if EPA
determines that the tolerance is safe.
