Contents

 

Sec.  176.5  Establishment of a time-limited tolerance or exemption.



    EPA will establish a time-limited tolerance for pesticide chemical 

residues in or on raw or processed food or feed resulting from the use 

of a pesticide chemical, if EPA authorizes an emergency exemption or a 

crisis exemption. EPA will consider establishing such a tolerance only 

if an applicant acting under authority of FIFRA section 18 either has 

requested an emergency exemption, has stated its intention to issue a 

crisis exemption, or has issued a crisis exemption for a use that may 

result, directly or indirectly, in pesticide chemical residues in food 

or feed.
