AGENCY:
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION:
Final rule.
SUMMARY:
This regulation amends the existing tolerance exemption for residues of Paecilomyces lilacinus strain 251 in or on all food commodities due to a scientific reclassification of the substance as Purpureocillium lilacinum. Bayer CropScience LP submitted a petition to EPA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), requesting this amendment. This regulation eliminates the need to establish a maximum permissible level for residues of Purpureocillium lilacinum strain 251 under FFDCA.
