(a)General.
(1) Tolerances are established for the combined residues of the pyrethroid lambda-cyhalothrin, 1:1 mixture of (S)-[ALPHA]-cyano-3-phenoxybenzyl-(Z)-(1R,3 R)-3-(2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-enyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate and (R)-[ALPHA]-cyano-3-phenoxybenzyl-(Z)-(1S,3 S)-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)-[ALPHA]-cyano-3-phenoxybenzyl-(Z)-(1S,3 S)-3-(2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-enyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate and (R)-[ALPHA]-cyano-3-phenoxybenzyl-(Z)-(1R,3 R)-3-(2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoroprop-1-enyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate, 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]
(c)Tolerances with regional registrations. [Reserved]
(d)Indirect or inadvertent residues. [Reserved]
