AGENCY:
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION:
Final rule.
SUMMARY:
This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of lipochitooliosaccharide (LCO) MOR116 in or on all food commodities when used in accordance with label directions and good agricultural practices. Monsanto Company (now known as Bayer Crop Science LP), submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), requesting an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance. This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of LCO MOR116 under FFDCA.
DATES:
This regulation is effective August 22, 2019. Objections and requests for hearings must be received on or before October 21, 2019, and must be filed in accordance with the instructions provided in 40 CFR part 178 (see also Unit I.C. of the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION).
