Chlorate; Exemption From the Requirement of a Pesticide Tolerance

This regulation establishes an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of chlorate (CAS Reg. No. 7775-09-9) in or on several food commodities. Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), TriNova LLC submitted a petition to EPA requesting an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance.
