    SUMMARY: EPA proposes to establish permanent tolerances for residues of 
    the pyrethroid cyfluthrin in or on the raw agricultural commodities 
    (RACs) group citrus, fruits; to withdraw the proposed food/feed 
    additive petition for citrus oil, dried pulp, and molasses and to 
    establish a maximum residue limit for cyfluthrin on citrus oil and 
    dried pulp. Bayer Corporation (formerly Miles, Inc.) submitted 
    petitions pursuant to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) 
    requesting these regulations to establish certain maximum permissible 
    levels for residues of the insecticide.

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA issued a notice, published in the 
    Federal Register of July 13, 1994 (59 FR 35717), which announced that 
    Miles Corp. had submitted pesticide petition PP 4F4313 and food/feed 
    additive petition (FAP) 4H5687 to EPA. Pesticide petition 4F4313 
    requests that the Administrator, pursuant to section 408(d) of the 
    Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d), amend 
    40 CFR 180.436 by establishing tolerances for residues of the 
    insecticide cyfluthrin, [cyano[4-fluoro-3-phenoxyphenyl]-methyl-3-[2,2-
    dicloroethenyl]-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate] in or on the raw 
    agricultural commodities group citrus, fruits at 0.2 parts per millions 
    (PPM).
        Food/feed additive petition 4H5687 requests that the Administrator, 
    pursuant to section 409(b) of the FFDCA (21 U.S.C. 348), amend 40 CFR 
    parts 185 and 186 by establishing food/feed additive regulations for 
    cyfluthrin in or on the processed food commodity citrus oil at 1.0 ppm, 
    and the feed commodities citrus dried pulp at 1.0 ppm and citrus 
    molasses at 0.5 ppm.
        There were no comments or requests for referral to an advisory 
    committee received in response to the notice of filing.
        On May 2, 1996, Miles Corp. requested that the proposed food/feed 
    additive regulation (4H5687) for citrus oil, citrus dried pulp, and 
    citrus molasses under section 409 of FFDCA be withdrawn and proposed 
    establishment of a maximum residue level (MRL) for citrus oil and 
    citrus dried pulp at 0.3 ppm under section 701 of FFDCA. The request to 
    withdraw the feed additive petition for citrus molasses was submitted 
    in response to EPA's determination that citrus molasses is no longer 
    considered a significant feed item. See EPA's final 860 Series Residue 
    Chemistry Guidelines (860.1000) published as public drafts on August 
    25, 1995 (60 FR 44343) (formerly Table II of Subdivision O, Residue 
    Chemistry, of the Pesticide Assessment Guidelines).
        The request to withdraw the food/feed additive petition under 
    section 409 for citrus oil and citrus dried pulp and instead propose to 
    establish a MRL for citrus oil and citrus dried pulp under section 701 
    was submitted in response to EPA's policy changes regarding when 
    pesticide residues concentrate in processed food and whether a 
    particular processed food is considered ``ready to eat.'' In June 1995 
    (60 FR 31300, June 14, 1995), EPA issued a revised policy concerning 
    when section 409 food and feed additive tolerances were needed to
    
    [[Page 37234]]
    
    prevent the adulteration of foods and animal feeds. Under EPA's revised 
    policy, a section 409 tolerance is necessary for pesticide residues in 
    processed food when it is likely that the level of some residues of the 
    pesticide will exceed the section 408 tolerance level in ``ready to 
    eat'' processed food/feed. Of particular relevance to the proposed 
    food/feed additive regulation for citrus oil and dried pulp is EPA's 
    decision to interpret the term ``ready to eat'' processed food/feed as 
    food ready for consumption ``as is'' without further preparation. For 
    foods/feeds that are found to be not ``ready to eat,'' EPA takes into 
    account the dilution of residues that occurs in preparing a ``ready to 
    eat'' food/feed.
        Under the revised policy, EPA has determined that citrus fruit oil 
    and dried citrus pulp are not ``ready to eat'' food or animal feed 
    commodities. Citrus oil is not consumed ``as is'' but used as a 
    flavoring in other foods. Likewise EPA has found no evidence that dried 
    citrus pulp is fed to livestock as a stand-along feed stock. Rather 
    dried citrus pulp is used as an ingredient in animal feeds. As such, 
    dried citrus pulp can constitute up to 25% of animal feed.
        The proposed section 408 tolerance for cyfluthrin on citrus is 0.2 
    ppm. The highest average residue found in crop field trials for 
    cyfluthrin on citrus fruits was 0.06 ppm. A processing study showed 
    that in producing citrus oil and dried pulp residues concentrated 530% 
    (a concentration factor of 5.3x). Thus with this information it is 
    likely that cyfluthrin residues of 0.32 ppm (0.06 x 5.3) could occur in 
    citrus oil and dried pulp. However to project what residues are likely 
    in ``ready to eat'' food or animal feed containing citrus oil and dried 
    citrus pulp the 0.32 ppm must be divided by 238 for citrus oil and 3 
    for dried citrus pulp to allow for dilution occurring when citrus oil 
    and dried citrus pulp is added to other ingredients in the preparation 
    of food and animal feed respectively. Once these dilutions are taken 
    into account (0.32 divided by 238) and (0.32 divided by 3) the likely 
    residues of cyfluthrin in food and animal feed would not be expected to 
    exceed 0.001 ppm for citrus oil (or < 0.01="" ppm="" which="" is="" the="" limit="" of="" detection="" of="" the="" analytical="" method)="" and="" 0.11="" for="" dried="" citrus="" pulp.="" since="" these="" levels="" are="" below="" the="" 408="" tolerance="" level="" (0.2="" ppm)="" food="" and="" animal="" feed="" would="" not="" be="" adulterated="" and="" no="" section="" 409="" tolerances="" are="" needed.="" however="" since="" residues="" could="" be="" present="" in="" the="" not="" ``ready="" to="" eat''="" commodities="" at="" levels="" (0.32="" ppm)="" appreciably="" higher="" than="" the="" 0.2="" ppm="" rac="" tolerance,="" section="" 701="" mrl's="" are="" being="" proposed.="" a="" section="" 701="" mrl="" represents="" the="" highest="" level="" of="" pesticide="" residue="" in="" a="" not="" ``ready="" to="" eat''="" processed="" commodity="" that="" is="" consistent="" with="" the="" requirements="" in="" 21="" u.s.c.="" 342(a)(2)(c)="" that="" the="" pesticide="" be="" applied="" in="" accordance="" with="" the="" section="" 408="" tolerance="" and="" that="" good="" manufacturing="" processes="" be="" used.="" epa="" will="" compute="" the="" mrl="" by="" multiplying="" the="" highest="" average="" residue="" found="" in="" the="" raw="" commodity="" in="" field="" trials="" by="" the="" concentration="" factor="" determined="" in="" processing="" studies="" using="" good="" manufacturing="" practices.="" as="" noted="" above,="" the="" highest="" average="" residue="" from="" the="" cyfluthrin="" fields="" trials="" is="" 0.06="" ppm="" and="" the="" concentration="" factor="" for="" processing="" is="" 5.3x.="" multiplying="" 0.06="" by="" 5.3="" yields="" a="" product="" of="" 0.318="" ppm.="" epa="" believes="" it="" is="" appropriate="" to="" round="" 0.318="" ppm="" and="" proposes="" 0.3="" ppm="" as="" mrl="" for="" cyfluthrin="" residues="" in="" citrus="" oil="" and="" dried="" citrus="" pulp.="" for="" purposes="" of="" enforcement="" of="" the="" mrl,="" the="" same="" analytical="" method="" used="" for="" enforcement="" of="" the="" section="" 408="" tolerances="" should="" be="" used.="" epa="" is="" proposing="" to="" place="" this="" mrl="" in="" existing="" parts="" 185="" and="" 186="" of="" title="" 40="" of="" the="" code="" of="" federal="" regulations="" (cfr)="" rather="" than="" creating="" a="" new="" part="" of="" title="" 40.="" currently,="" 40="" cfr="" parts="" 185="" and="" 186="" contain="" section="" 409="" food="" and="" feed="" additive="" tolerances="" organized="" by="" pesticide.="" epa="" believes="" it="" will="" be="" clearer="" to="" the="" regulated="" community="" and="" to="" enforcement="" personnel="" if="" all="" regulations="" pertaining="" to="" residue="" levels="" of="" a="" pesticide="" in="" food="" and="" animal="" feeds="" are="" located="" in="" the="" same="" part="" of="" the="" cfr.="" because="" epa="" is="" respectively="" proposing="" to="" expand="" the="" type="" of="" regulation="" that="" would="" be="" included="" in="" part="" 185="" and="" 186,="" epa="" proposes="" modifying="" the="" titles="" of="" parts="" 185="" and="" 186="" to="" ``pesticides="" in="" food="" and="" pesticides="" in="" animal="" feeds''="" to="" reflect="" these="" changes.="" the="" science="" data="" submitted="" in="" support="" of="" the="" petitions="" and="" other="" relevant="" material="" have="" been="" reviewed.="" the="" toxicological="" and="" metabolism="" data="" considered="" in="" support="" of="" this="" tolerance="" are="" discussed="" in="" detail="" in="" a="" related="" document="" published="" in="" the="" federal="" register="" of="" march="" 15,="" 1996="" (61="" fr="" 10678).="" a="" chronic="" dietary="" exposure/risk="" assessment="" was="" performed="" for="" cyfluthrin="" using="" a="" reference="" dose="" (rfd)="" of="" 0.025="" mg/kg="" bwt/day,="" based="" on="" a="" no="" observed="" effect="" level="" (noel)="" of="" 50="" ppm="" (2.5="" mg/kg="" bwt/day)="" and="" an="" uncertainty="" factor="" of="" 100.="" the="" noel="" was="" determined="" in="" a="" 2-year="" rat="" feeding="" study.="" the="" endpoint="" effects="" of="" concern="" were="" decreased="" body="" weights="" in="" males="" and="" inflammation="" of="" the="" kidneys="" in="" females="" at="" the="" lel="" of="" 150="" ppm="" (6.2="" mg/kg/day).="" the="" current="" estimated="" dietary="" exposure="" for="" the="" u.s.="" population="" resulting="" from="" established="" tolerances="" is="" 0.002907="" mg/kg/bwt="" day,="" which="" represents="" 11.6%="" of="" the="" rfd="" and="" 0.00662="" mg/kg/day,="" which="" represents="" 26.4%="" of="" the="" rfd="" for="" children="" (1-6="" years="" old),="" the="" subgroup="" population="" exposed="" to="" the="" highest="" risk.="" the="" current="" action="" will="" increase="" exposure="" to="" 0.003268="" mg/kg/day="" or="" 13%="" of="" the="" rfd="" and="" 0.007605="" mg/kg/day="" or="" 30.4%="" of="" the="" rfd="" respectively.="" generally="" speaking,="" epa="" has="" no="" cause="" for="" concern="" if="" total="" residue="" contribution="" for="" published="" and="" proposed="" tolerances="" is="" less="" than="" the="" rfd.="" epa="" concludes="" that="" the="" chronic="" dietary="" risk="" of="" cyfluthrin,="" as="" estimated="" by="" the="" dietary="" risk="" assessment,="" does="" not="" appear="" to="" be="" of="" concern.="" because="" there="" was="" a="" sign="" of="" developmental="" effects="" seen="" in="" animal="" studies,="" the="" agency="" used="" the="" rabbit="" developmental="" toxicity="" study="" (with="" a="" noel="" of="" 20="" mg/kg/day="" to="" assess="" acute="" dietary="" exposure="" and="" determine="" a="" margin="" of="" exposure="" (moe)="" for="" the="" overall="" u.s.="" population="" and="" certain="" subgroups.="" since="" the="" toxicological="" end-point="" pertains="" to="" developmental="" toxicity,="" the="" population="" group="" of="" concern="" for="" this="" analysis="" is="" women="" aged="" 13="" and="" above,="" the="" subgroup="" which="" most="" closely="" approximates="" women="" of="" child-bearing="" age.="" the="" moe="" is="" calculated="" as="" the="" ratio="" of="" the="" noel="" to="" the="" exposure.="" for="" this="" analysis,="" the="" agency="" calculated="" the="" moe="" for="" women="" ages="" 13="" and="" above="" to="" be="" 666.="" generally="" speaking,="" moe's="" greater="" than="" 100="" for="" data="" derived="" from="" animal="" studies="" are="" generally="" not="" of="" concern.="" the="" metabolism="" of="" cyfluthrin="" in="" plants="" and="" livestocks="" for="" this="" use="" is="" adequately="" understood.="" the="" residues="" of="" concern="" is="" cyfluthrin.="" adequate="" analytical="" methodology="" (gas="" liquid="" chromatography="" with="" an=""
