U.S.C. 346a, proposing the establishment or amendment of regulations in
40 CFR part 180 for residues of pesticide chemicals in or on various
food commodities. EPA has determined that this pesticide petition

Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a summary of the petition included in
this notice, prepared by the petitioner along with a description of the
analytical method available for the detection and measurement of the
pesticide chemical residues is available on EPA's Electronic Docket at
https://www.regulations.gov/. To locate this information on the home

the requirement of a tolerance for residues of polybutylene (CAS Reg.
No. 9003-28-5) in or on food commodities when used as an inert
ingredient. Because this petition is a request for an exemption from
the requirement of a tolerance without numerical limitations, no
analytical method is required.
