180.498—Sulfentrazone; tolerances for residues.
(a)
(1) General.
Tolerances are established for the combined residues of the free and conjugated forms of sulfentrazone, 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 sulfentrazone (N -[2,4-dichloro-5-[4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1H -1,2,4-triazol-1-yl]phenyl]methanesulfonamide) and its metabolite HMS (N -(2,4-dichloro-5-(4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3- hydroxymethyl-5-oxo-1H -1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)methanesulfonamide, calculated as the stoichiometric equivalent of sulfentrazone in or on the following commodities.
| Commodity | Parts per million |

(b) emergency exemptions.
Time-limited tolerances are established for the combined residues of the free and conjugated forms of sulfentrazone, including its metabolites and degradates, in connection with use of the pesticide under section 18 emergency exemptions granted by EPA. Compliance with the tolerance levels specified below is to be determined by measuring only the sum of sulfentrazone (N -[2,4-dichloro-5-[4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1H -1,2,4-triazol-1-yl]phenyl]methanesulfonamide) and its metabolites HMS (N -(2,4-dichloro-5-(4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-hydroxymethyl-5-oxo-1H -1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)methanesulfonamide) and DMS (N -(2,4-dichloro-5-(4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-1H -1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)methanesulfonamide, calculated as the stoichiometric equivalent of sulfentrazone in or on the following commodities. These tolerances expire and are revoked on the dates specified in the following table.
| Commodity | Parts permillion | Expiration/revocation date |
|---|---|---|
| Flax, seed | 0.20 | 12/31/13 |
| Strawberry | 0.60 | 12/31/13 |
(d) Indirect or inadvertent residues.
Tolerances are established for inadvertent and indirect combined residues of the free and conjugated forms of sulfentrazone, 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 sulfentrazone (N -[2,4-dichloro-5-[4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1H -1,2,4-triazol-1-yl]phenyl]methanesulfonamide) and its metabolites HMS (N -(2,4-dichloro-5-(4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3-hydroxymethyl-5-oxo-1H -1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)methanesulfonamide) and DMS (N -(2,4-dichloro-5-(4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-1H -1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)methanesulfonamide, calculated as the stoichiometric equivalent of sulfentrazone in or on the following commodities when present therein as a result of the application of sulfentrazone to growing crops.
