    (a) The tolerances established for pesticide chemicals in this 
subpart C apply to residues resulting from their application prior to 
harvest or slaughter, unless otherwise stated. Tolerances are expressed 
in terms of parts by weight of the pesticide chemical per one million 
parts by weight of the raw agricultural commodity.
    (b) The poisonous and deleterious substances for which tolerances 
are established by the regulations in this subpart C are named by their 
common names wherever practicable, otherwise by their chemical names.
    (c) The analytical methods to be used for determining whether 
pesticide residues, including negligible residues, in or on raw 
agricultural commodities are in compliance with the tolerances 
established in this part 180 are identified among the methods contained 
or referenced in the Food and Drug Administration's ``Pesticide 
Analytical Manual'' which is available from the Food and Drug 
Administration, Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, 200 C 
Street SW., Washington, DC 20204.
