Latest version.
  • § 180.603 Dinotefuran; tolerances for residues.

    (a) General.

    (1) Tolerances are established for residues of dinotefuran, (RS)-1-methyl-2-nitro-3-((tetrahydro-3-furanyl)methyl)guanidine, including its metabolites and degradates, in or on the commodities listed in the following table. Compliance with the tolerance levels specified below is to be determined by measuring only the sum of dinotefuran and its metabolites DN, 1-methyl-3-(tetrahydro-3-furylmethyl)guanidine, and UF, 1-methyl-3-(tetrahydro-3-furylmethyl)urea, calculated as the stoichiometric equivalent of dinotefuran, in or on the commodities listed in the table below:

    Commodity Parts per million
    Berry, low growing, except strawberry, subgroup 13-07H0.2
    Brassica, head and stem, subgroup 5A1.4
    Brassica, leafy greens, subgroup 5B15.0
    Cotton, undelinted seed0.4
    Cotton, gin byproducts8.0
    Fruit, small vine climbing, except fuzzy kiwifruit, subgroup 13-07F0.9
    Grape, raisin2.5
    Onion, bulb, subgroup 3-07A0.15
    Onion, green, subgroup 3-07B5.0
    Peach1.0
    Persimmon1 2
    Potato, chips0.1
    Potato, granules/flakes0.15
    Rice, grain9.0
    Tea, dried2 50
    Tomato, paste1.0
    Turnip, greens15.0
    Vegetable, fruiting, group 80.7
    Vegetable, cucurbit, group 90.5
    Vegetable, leafy, except Brassica, group 45.0
    Vegetable, tuberous and corm, subgroup 1C0.05
    Watercress8.0

    (2) Tolerances are established for residues of dinotefuran, (RS)-1-methyl-2-nitro-3-((tetrahydro-3-furanyl)methyl)guanidine, including its metabolites and degradates, in or on the commodities listed in the following table. Compliance with the tolerance levels specified below is to be determined by measuring only the sum of dinotefuran, (RS)-1-methyl-2-nitro-3-((tetrahydro-3-furanyl)methyl)guanidine in or on the commodities listed in the table below:

    Commodity Parts per million
    Cattle, fat0.05
    Cattle, meat0.05
    Cattle, meat byproducts0.05
    Egg0.01
    Goat, fat0.05
    Goat, meat0.05
    Goat, meat byproducts0.05
    Hog, fat0.05
    Hog, meat0.05
    Hog, meat byproducts0.05
    Horse, fat0.05
    Horse, meat0.05
    Horse, meat byproducts0.05
    Milk0.05
    Poultry, meat byproducts0.01
    Sheep, fat0.05
    Sheep, meat0.05
    Sheep, meat byproducts0.05

    (3) A tolerance of 0.01 parts per million is established for residues of the insecticide dinotefuran, (RS)-1-methyl-2-nitro-3-((tetrahydro-3-furanyl)methyl)guanidine, including its metabolites and degradates, in or on all food and/or feed commodities (other than those covered by a higher tolerance as a result of use on growing crops or inadvertent residues) when residues result from application of dinotefuran in food and/or feed handling establishments where food and/or feed products are held, stored, processed, prepared, or served. Compliance with the tolerance level is to be determined by measuring only dinotefuran.

    (b) Section 18 emergency exemptions. Time-limited tolerances are established for residues of dinotefuran, (RS)-1-methyl-2-nitro-3-((tetrahydro-3-furanyl)methyl)guanidine, including its metabolites and degradates, in or on the commodities in the table below resulting from use of the pesticide pursuant to FIFRA section 18 emergency exemptions. Compliance with the tolerance levels specified below is to be determined by measuring only the sum of dinotefuran and its metabolites DN, 1-methyl-3-(tetrahydro-3-furylmethyl)guanidine, and UF, 1-methyl-3-(tetrahydro-3-furylmethyl)urea, calculated as the stoichiometric equivalent of dinotefuran, in or on the commodities listed in the table below. The tolerances expire and are revoked on the dates specified in the table.

    Commodity Parts per million Expiration/
    revocation

    Fruit, pome, Group 112.012/31/21
    Fruit, stone, Group 122.012/31/21
    Kiwifruit, fuzzy0.912/31/2022

    (c) Tolerances with regional registrations. [Reserved]

    (d) Indirect or inadvertent residues. [Reserved]
