§ 180.589 Boscalid; tolerances for residues.
(a) General.
(1) Tolerances are established for residues of the fungicide boscalid, including its metabolites and degradates, in or on the commodities listed below. Compliance with the tolerance levels specified below is to be determined by measuring only boscalid, 3-pyridinecarboxamide, 2-chloro-N-(4′-chloro[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl), in or on the following raw agricultural commodities:
Commodity Parts per million Alfalfa, forage 30.0 Alfalfa, hay 65.0 Almond, hulls 17 Apple, wet pomace 10 Artichoke, globe 6.0 Avocado 1.5 Banana, import1 0.40 Berry, low growing, subgroup 13-07G, except cranberry 4.5 Brassica, leafy greens, subgroup 4-16B, except watercress 60 Bushberry subgroup 13-07B 13.0 Caneberry subgroup 13-07A 10.0 Canistel 1.5 Canola, refined oil 5.0 Celtuce 45 Citrus, dried pulp 4.5 Citrus, oil 85.0 Coffee, green bean, import1 0.05 Cotton, gin byproducts 55.0 Dill, seed 100 Endive, Belgium 6.0 Fennel, Florence 45 Fruit, citrus, group 10-10 2.0 Fruit, pome, group 11-10 3.0 Fruit, small vine climbing, except fuzzy kiwifruit, subgroup 13-07F 5.0 Fruit, stone, group 12-12 3.5 Grain, aspirated fractions 3.0 Grape, raisin 8.5 Herb subgroup 19A 150 Hop, dried cones 35 Kohlrabi 6.0 Leaf petiole vegetable subgroup 22B 45 Leafy greens subgroup 4-16A 70 Mango 1.5 Nut, tree, group 14-12 0.70 Oilseed group 20 3.5 Papaya 1.5 Pea and bean, dried shelled, except soybean, subgroup 6C 2.5 Pea and bean, succulent shelled, subgroup 6B 0.60 Peanut 0.05 Peanut, meal 0.15 Peanut, refined oil 0.15 Peppermint, tops 30.0 Persimmon 8.0 Sapodilla 1.5 Sapote, black 1.5 Sapote, mamey 1.5 Soybean, hulls 0.2 Soybean, seed 0.1 Soybean, vegetable 2.0 Spearmint, tops 30.0 Star apple 1.5 Tea, dried2 70 Tea, instant2 70 Vegetable, Brassica, head and stem, group 5-16 6.0 Vegetable, bulb, group 3-07 5.0 Vegetable, cucurbit, group 9 3.0 Vegetable, fruiting, group 8-10 3.0 Vegetable, legume, edible podded subgroup 6A 5.0 Vegetable, root, except sugar beet, subgroup 1B 2.0 Vegetable, tuberous and corm, subgroup 1C 0.05 (2) Tolerances are established for residues of the fungicide boscalid, including its metabolites and degradates, in or on the commodities listed below. Compliance with the tolerance levels specified below is to be determined by measuring only the sum of boscalid, 3-pyridinecarboxamide, 2-chloro-N-(4′-chloro[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl), and metabolites 2-chloro-N-(4'-chloro-5-hydroxy-biphenyl-2-yl) nicotinamide and glucuronic acid conjugate of 2-chloro-N-(4′-chloro-5-hydroxy-biphenyl-2-yl) nicotinamide, calculated as the stoichiometric equivalent of boscalid in or on the following food commodities:
Commodity Parts per million Cattle, fat 0.30 Cattle, meat 0.10 Cattle, meat byproducts 0.35 Egg 0.02 Goat, fat 0.30 Goat, meat 0.10 Goat, meat byproducts 0.35 Hog, fat 0.20 Hog, meat 0.05 Hog, meat byproducts 0.10 Horse, fat 0.30 Horse, meat 0.10 Horse, meat byproducts 0.35 Milk 0.10 Poultry, fat 0.20 Poultry, meat 0.05 Poultry, meat byproducts 0.20 Sheep, fat 0.30 Sheep, meat 0.10 Sheep, meat byproducts 0.35 (b) Section 18 emergency exemptions. Time-limited tolerances are established for residues of the fungicide boscalid, including its metabolites and degradates, in connection with use of the pesticide under section 18 emergency exemptions granted by EPA. Compliance with the tolerance level specified below is to be determined by measuring only boscalid, 3-pyridinecarboxamide, 2-chloro-N-(4′-chloro[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl). This tolerance will expire and is revoked on the date specified in the following table:
Commodity Parts per million Expiration/revocation date Endive, Belgian 16 12/31/13 (c) Tolerances with regional registration. [Reserved]
(d) Indirect or inadvertent residues. Tolerances are established for the indirect or inadvertent residues of the fungicide boscalid, including its metabolites and degradates, in or on the commodities listed below. Compliance with the tolerance levels specified below is to be determined by measuring only boscalid, 3-pyridinecarboxamide, 2-chloro-N-(4′-chloro[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl), in or on the following commodities:
