II. What Action is the Agency Taking?
EPA is announcing its receipt of several pesticide petitions filed
under section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA),
21 U.S.C. 346a, proposing the establishment or modification of
regulations in 40 CFR part 174 or part 180 for residues of pesticide
chemicals in or on various food commodities. EPA has determined that
the pesticide petitions described in this notice contain the data or
information prescribed in FFDCA section 408(d)(2); however, EPA has not
fully evaluated the sufficiency of the submitted data at this time or
whether the data support granting of the pesticide petitions.
Additional data may be needed before EPA can make a final determination
on these pesticide petitions.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a summary of each of the petitions
that are the subject of this notice, prepared by the petitioner, is
included in a docket EPA has created for each rulemaking. The docket
for each of the petitions is available on-line at http://www.regulations.gov.
As specified in FFDCA section 408(d)(3), (21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3)),
EPA is publishing notice of the petition so that the public has an
opportunity to comment on this request for the establishment or
modification of regulations for residues of pesticides in or on food
commodities. Further information on the petition may be obtained
through the petition summary referenced in this unit.
New Tolerances
1. PP 9E7606. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-0906). Syngenta Crop Protection,
Inc., 410 Swing Road, P.O. Box 18300, Greensboro, NC 27419-8300,
proposes to establish an import tolerance in 40 CFR part 180 for
residues of the fungicide isopyrazam (SYN520453), in or on banana at
0.05 parts per million (ppm). An adequate, validated method
(GRM006.01B) is available for enforcement purposes for the
determination of residues of isopyrazam, analyzed as the isomers
SYN534968 and SYN534969, in crop samples. The limit of quantitation
(LOQ) has been set at 0.005 mg/kg for each isomer (0.01 mg/kg for
SYN520453 in total). Final determination is by liquid chromatography-
mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). An analytical method
suitable for the determination of residues of the metabolites
CSCD459488 and CSCD459489 (syn and anti forms respectively) in crop
samples using an external standardization procedure is also available
(GRM006.03A). The LOQ has been set at 0.005 mg/kg for both analytes.
Final determination is by LC-MS/MS. Contact: Shaunta Hill, (703) 347-
8961; [email protected].
2. PP 9E7632. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-0861). The Interregional Research
Project No. 4 (IR-4), 500 College Road East, Suite 201W, Princeton, NJ
08540, proposes to establish a tolerance in 40 CFR part 180 for
residues of the insecticide spirodiclofen, (3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-
oxo-1-oxaspiro[4,5]dec-3-en-4-yl 2,2-dimethylbutanoate), in or on the
bushberry subgroup 13-07B at 4.0 ppm. Adequate analytical methodology
using LC-MS/MS detection is available for enforcement purposes.
Contact: Laura Nollen, (703) 305-7390; [email protected].
3. PP 9E7642. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-0890). The Interregional Research
Project No. 4 (IR-4), 500 College Road East, Suite 201W, Princeton, NJ
08540, in cooperation with Chemtura Corp., 199 Benson Rd (2-5),
Middlebury, CT 06749, proposes to establish tolerances in 40 CFR part
180 for residues of the insecticide bifenazate, (1-methylethyl 2-(4-
methoxy[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-yl)hydrazinecarboxylate) and diazinecarboxylic
acid, 2-(4-methoxy-[1,1'-biphenyl]-3-yl), 1-methylethyl ester
(expressed as bifenazate), in or on sugar apple, cherimoya, atemoya,
custard apple, ilama, soursop, and biriba at 1.5 ppm; avocado at 7.0
ppm; fruit, small, vine climbing subgroup 13-07F, except fuzzy kiwi
fruit at 0.75 ppm; and berry, low growing, subgroup 13-07G at 1.5 ppm.
Chemtura Corporation, has developed practical analytical methodology
for detecting and measuring residues of bifenazate in or on raw
agricultural commodities. As D3598, a significant metabolite, was found
to interconvert readily to/from bifenazate, the analytical method was
designed to convert all residues of D3598 to the parent compound
(bifenazate) for analysis. The method, ``Determination of Combined
Bifenazate and D3598 Residues in Sugar Apple'', utilizes reversed phase
high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to separate the
bifenazate from matrix derived interferences, and oxidative coulometric
electrochemical detection for the identification and quantification of
this analyte. The lowest level of method validation (LLMV) in this
study was 0.05 ppm for each analyte. Based on recoveries of samples
fortified at the LLMV, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of
quantitation (LOQ) were calculated as 0.0308 ppm and 0.0923 ppm,
respectively, for bifenazate and as 0.0332 ppm and 0.0997 ppm,
respectively, for D3598. Contact: Sidney Jackson, (703) 305-7610;

Amended Tolerances
1. PP 9E7632. (EPA-HQ-OPP-2009-0861). The Interregional Research
Project No. 4 (IR-4), 500 College Road East, Suite 201W, Princeton, NJ
08540, proposes to amend the tolerances in 40 CFR 180.608 by revising
the tolerance expression under paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2) to read as
follows: (a)(1). Tolerances are established for residues of the
insecticide spirodiclofen, including its metabolites and degradates.
Compliance with the tolerance levels specified is to be determined by
measuring only spirodiclofen (3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-oxo-1-
oxaspiro[4,5]dec-3-en-4-yl 2,2-dimethylbutanoate). (a)(2). Tolerances
are established for residues of the insecticide spirodiclofen,
including its metabolites and degradates. Compliance with the tolerance
levels specified is to be determined by measuring only the sum of
spirodiclofen (3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-oxo-1-oxaspiro[4,5]dec-3-en-4-
yl 2,2-dimethylbutanoate) and its metabolite 3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-
