EPA establishes tolerances for residues of tebuconazole

EPA is collecting hearings by October 31, 2011 of tolerances for residues of the fungicide tebuconazole on several crops.

The registrant, Bayer CropScience submitted a petition in March requested revising tolerances for residues of the fungicide tebuconazole in or on wheat, grain, oats and grain to 0.15 ppm in order to harmonize with MRLs established in Canada by PMRA.

Based upon review of the data supporting the petition, EPA has determined that tolerances on the following processed forms of wheat and oats are needed also: wheat, shorts and wheat, germ, each at 0.20 ppm. Additionally, the Agency is establishing tolerances for tebuconazole of 0.20 ppm in shorts and germ of wheat.
