SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of May 23, 1997 (62
FR 20350)(FRL-5719-8), EPA issued a final rule establishing pesticide
tolerances for residues of the plant growth regulator, cyclanilide, in
or on the food commodities cottonseed, cotton gin byproducts, milk,
fat, meat, meat by-products, and kidney of cattle, goats, horses, hogs
and sheep. Rhone-Poulenc Ag Company submitted a petition to EPA under
the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) as amended by the Food
Quality Protection Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-170) requesting the
tolerances. The tolerance level for meat of cattle, goats, horses, hogs
and sheep was incorrectly shown as 0.20 parts per million in
Sec. 180.506. This rule corrects those tolerances effective
retroactively to May 23, 1997 as follows:
