Status of Actual/Anticipated Residue Tolerance Review Process

Quick Resources

As of December 31, 2008, EPA has screened dietary assessments for 230 pesticides with tolerance decisions made between August 1996 and the end of 2005. The Agency has determined that 223 continue to meet the FQPA safety standard and the next scheduled review for these chemicals will be conducted as part of the Registration Review process.

Further review is necessary for the remaining seven chemicals: avermectin, chlorpropham, esfenvalerate, imazalil, iprodione, thiabendazole, and thiophanate-methyl. For most of the seven chemicals, EPA is currently developing new risk assessments, or risk assessments have been completed recently for other purposes. Consequently, the Agency decided to defer its final determination for these chemicals until the risk assessments are completed and any new risk management decisions are made. New assessments are conducted using the most recent monitoring data and risk assessment methodologies.

The tables below list the 230 reviewed chemicals according to the year the original tolerance decision was made. EPA’s goal is to complete its screening review approximately three years after the initial tolerance decisions. For example, by the end of 2009, all of the 2006 initial assessments will be screened and review determinations will be completed for most of the chemicals.

1 Because only monitoring data used were PDP residues on milk and the highest estimated exposure occupies 42% of the aPAD, the Agency does not expect new data to increase exposure to a level that would be of concern.

2 Use of PDP and older MBS data continues to be protective because use patterns have not changed in such a way that would significantly increase dietary exposure.

3Use of PDP and older MBS data continues to be protective because use patterns have not changed in such a way that would significantly increase dietary exposure.

4Use of PDP and older MBS data continues to be protective because use patterns have not changed in such a way that would significantly increase dietary exposure.

5Highest PAD is low enough (52% of aPAD) that it is unlikely that new monitoring data would increase risk to above the LOC.

6 Because the highest aPAD is somewhat close (65% of aPAD) to the Agency’s level of concern, further review considering newer data is needed.  The Agency’s will evaluate its revised risk assessment in early 2009.

7 This chemical was a chemical requiring further review in 1998.  It was moved because tolerances were changed from fenvalerate in 2004 with full FQPA evaluation.  Because the highest aPAD and cPAD are somewhat close (67% of aPAD and 66% of cPAD) to the Agency’s level of concern, changes in use patterns have the potential to increase residue levels to a level that could be of concern.   A new RA planned for 2009.

8 Many uses were dropped during the Reregistration process including the lettuce use.

9Because the highest dietary risk < 22% of the cPAD and all other PADs are below 10%, it is unlikely that changes in residues detected in monitoring studies would increase to the extent that the dietary risks would increase to near the level of concern even if use increased significantly.  Therefore, the next scheduled review will be during the Registration Review Process.

10 Because the aPAD from the RED is close to the Agency's level of concern, further review considering newer data is needed.

11 Because the highest dietary risk, < 1% of the cPAD, and cancer risk is about 1 X 10-7, it is unlikely that residues detected in monitoring studies would increase to the extent that the dietary risks would increase to near the level of concern, even if use increased significantly. Therefore, the next scheduled review will be during the Registration Review Process.

12 Because cancer risk is close to the Agency's level of concern, further review is needed.

13 Because cancer risk is close to the Agency's level of concern, further review is needed.

14 Because the highest dietary risk < 6% of the aPAD and cPAD, it is unlikely that residues detected in monitoring studies would increase to the extent that the dietary risks would increase to near the level of concern, even if use increased significantly. Therefore, the next scheduled review will be during the Registration Review Process.

17 New assessment completed in support of tolerance decision for snow peas in 2007.  Because the highest dietary risk is 8% of the cPAD, it is unlikely that changes in residues detected in monitoring studies would increase to the extent that the dietary risks would increase to near the level of concern even if use increased significantly.   Therefore, the next scheduled review will be during the Registration Review Process.

18 Because the highest dietary risks are low at 1.8 X 10-7 and 2% of the aPAD, it is unlikely that changes in residues detected in monitoring studies would increase to the extent that the dietary risks would increase to near the level of concern even if use increased significantly.   Therefore, the next scheduled review will be during the Registration Review Process.

19 The Captan RED that was approved in November 1999 included the initial tolerance decision.  Over the period from 1994-2003, total use has declined, particularly for high consumption foods such as apples.  PDP monitoring data indicate similar or lower residue levels than those used for the initial assessment.  Also, the highest acute risk is 36% of the PAD, the highest cPAD is <2%, and cancer risk is 1.3 X 10-7.   Based on the stable use, stable or declining residues in available monitoring data and the portion of the risk cup available, the Agency believes that that residue levels used in its initial assessment would not increase in a way that would alter its initial safety finding.  Therefore, the review is complete.  Next scheduled review will be completed during Registration Review.

20 The Dicofol RED that was approved in December 1999 included the initial tolerance decision.  For acute risks, EPA only used study data and as such, the review is complete.  However, extensive monitoring data were used for the chronic risk assessment used in making the safety determinations for existing tolerances.  Over the period from 1994-2003, total use has remained stable, particularly for high consumption foods.  PDP monitoring data indicate similar or lower residue levels than those used for the initial assessment.  Also, the highest chronic risk is 38% of the PAD for children 1-6 years old.  Commodities (apples and grapes) commonly consumed for this age group have stable use.  Based on the stable use, stable or declining residues in available monitoring data and the portion of the risk cup available, the Agency believes that that residue levels used in its initial assessment would not increase in a way that would alter its initial safety finding.  Therefore, the review is complete.  Next scheduled review will be completed during Registration Review.
