Sec.  174.21  General qualifications for exemptions.





    A plant-incorporated protectant is exempt from the requirements of 

FIFRA, other than the requirements of Sec.  174.71, if it meets all of 

the following criteria:

    (a) The plant-incorporated protectant meets the criteria listed in 

at least one of the sections in Sec.  Sec.  174.25 through 174.50.

    (b) When the plant-incorporated protectant is intended to be 

produced and used in a crop used as food, the residues of the plant-

incorporated protectant are either exempted from the requirement of a 

tolerance under FFDCA (as amended, 21 U.S.C. 321 et seq.) as codified at 

Sec.  Sec.  174.475 through 174.479, or no tolerance would otherwise be 

required for the plant-incorporated protectant.

    (c) Any inert ingredient that is part of the plant-incorporated 

protectant is on the list codified at Sec.  Sec.  174.485 through 

174.490. Plant-incorporated protectants that are not exempt from the 

requirements of FIFRA under this subpart are subject to all the 

requirements of FIFRA.
