Current as of January 02, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(a) General.

(1) Tolerances are established for residues of the insecticide spirotetramat, including its metabolites and degradates, in or on the commodities in the table below. Compliance with the tolerance levels specified below is to be determined by measuring only the sum of spirotetramat (cis–3–(2,5–dimethlyphenyl)–8–methoxy–2–oxo–1–azaspiro[4.5]dec–3–en–4–yl-eth yl carbonate) and its metabolites cis–3–(2,5–dimethylphenyl)–4–hydroxy–8–methoxy–1–azaspiro[4.5]dec–3–en–2–one , cis–3–(2,5–dimethylphenyl)–3–hydroxy–8–methoxy–1–azaspiro[4.5]decane–2,4–dio ne, cis–3–(2,5–dimethylphenyl)–8–methoxy–2–oxo–1–azaspiro[4.5]dec–3–en–4–yl beta–D–glucopyranoside, and cis–3–(2,5–dimethylphenyl)–4–hydroxy–8–methoxy–1–azaspiro[4.5]decan–2–one, calculated as the stoichiometric equivalent of spirotetramat, in or on the following commodities.
