Code of Federal Regulations Title 40. Protection of Environment § 40.180.438 Lambda-cyhalothrin and an isomer gamma-cyhalothrin; tolerances for residues
Current as of January 02, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff
(a) General.
(1) Tolerances are established for the combined residues of the pyrethroid lambda-cyhalothrin, 1:1 mixture of (S)-α-cyano–3-phenoxybenzyl-(Z)-(1R,3R)–3–(2–chloro –3,3,3–trifluoroprop–1–enyl)–2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate and (R)-α-cyano–3–phenoxybenzyl-(Z)-(1S,3S)–3- (2–chloro–3,3,3–trifluoroprop–1-enyl)–2,2–dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate and its epimer expressed as epimer of lambda-cyhalothrin, a 1:1 mixture of (S)-α-cyano–3–phenoxybenzyl-(Z)-(1S,3S)–3–(2–chloro–3,3,3- trifluoroprop–1–enyl)–2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate and (R)-α-cyano–3-phenoxybenzyl-(Z)-(1R,3R)–3–(2–chloro–3,3,3– trifluoroprop–1-enyl)–2,2–dimethyl cyclopropanecarboxylate, on plants and livestocks, as indicated in the following table.

1 The analytical enforcement methods for lambda-cyhalothrin are applicable for determination of gamma-cyhalothrin residues in plant and animal commodities.
(3) A tolerance of 0.01 part per million is established for residues of the insecticide lamba-cyhalothrin and an isomer gamma-cyhalothrin in or on all food commodities (other than those already covered by a higher tolerance as a result of use on growing crops) in food-handling establishments where food products are held, processed, or prepared.
(b)Section 18 emergency exemptions. [Reserved]
