Zeneca Ag. Products

9F6032

    EPA has received a pesticide petition 9F6032 from Zeneca Ag. 
Products, 1800 Concord Pike, P.O. Box 15458, Wilmington, DE 19850-5458 
proposing, pursuant to section 408(d) of the Federal Food, Drug, and 
Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d), to amend 40 CFR part 180 by 
establishing tolerances for residues of sulfosate (the 
trimethylsulfonium salt of glyphosate, also known as glyphosate-
trimesium) in or on the raw agricultural commodities (RAC) cotton gin 
byproducts at 120 parts per million (ppm) (of which no more than 35 ppm 
is trimethylsulfonium (TMS)); cotton undelinted seed at 40 ppm (of 
which no more than 10 ppm is TMS); leaves of root and tuber vegetables 
group (except radish) at 0.25 ppm (of which no more than 0.2 ppm is 
TMS); pistachio at 0.05 ppm; potato flakes at 2 ppm (of which no more 
than 1.5 ppm is TMS); radish roots at 16 ppm (of which no more than 15 
ppm is TMS); radish tops at 10 ppm (of which no more than 8 ppm is 
TMS); root vegetables subgroup (except radish) at 0.15 ppm (of which no 
more than 0.1 ppm is TMS); sorghum grain at 35 ppm (of which no more 
than 15 ppm is TMS); sorghum forage at 0.2 ppm (of which no more than 
0.1 ppm is TMS); sorghum stover at 140 ppm (of which no more than 60 
ppm is TMS); sweet corn forage at 20 ppm (of which no more than 5 ppm 
is TMS); sweet corn, kernels + cob with husks removed at 0.15 ppm (of 
which no more than 0.1 ppm is TMS); sweet corn stover at 165 ppm (of 
which no more than 65 ppm is TMS); tuberous and corm vegetables 
subgroup at 1 ppm (of which no more than 0.5 ppm is TMS); and to 
increase the tolerance in poultry meat by-products to 0.5 ppm and in 
milk to 2 ppm. EPA has determined that the petition contains data or 
information regarding the elements set forth in section 408(d)(2) of 
the FFDCA; however, EPA has not fully evaluated the sufficiency of the 
submitted data at this time or whether the data support granting of the 
petition. Additional data may be needed before EPA rules on the 
petition.

A. Residue Chemistry

    1. Plant metabolism. The metabolism of sulfosate has been studied 
in corn, grapes, and soybeans. EPA has concluded that the nature of the 
residue is adequately understood and that the only residues of concern 
are the parent ions N-(phosphonomethyl)-glycine anion (PMG) and TMS.
    2. Analytical method. Gas chromatography/mass selective (GC/MS) 
detector methods have been developed for PMG analysis in crops, animal 
tissues, milk, and eggs. Gas chromatography detection methods have been 
developed for TMS in crops, animal tissues, milk, and eggs.
    3. Magnitude of residues--i. Magnitude of residues in crops--a. 
Cotton. Residue data are available for sulfosate in a total of 13 
trials conducted in 5 EPA regions and 11 different states. The proposed 
tolerance of 40 ppm (of which no more than 10 ppm is TMS) for 
undelinted cotton seed and the proposed tolerance of 120 ppm (of which 
no more than 35 ppm is TMS) for cotton gin by-products will accommodate 
any residue resulting from the proposed use pattern.
    Cotton seed for processing were obtained and samples were processed 
into hulls, meal, and refined oil. There was no concentration in the 
processed fractions. No tolerances are required for cotton hulls, meal, 
or refined oil at the proposed use rates.
    b. Sorghum. Residue data are available for sulfosate in a total of 
12 trials conducted in 6 EPA regions and 8 different states. The 
proposed tolerance of 0.2 ppm (of which no more than 0.1 ppm is TMS) 
for sorghum forage; the proposed tolerance of 35 ppm (of which no more 
than 15 ppm is TMS) for sorghum grain; and the proposed tolerance of 
140 ppm (of which no more than 60 ppm is TMS) for sorghum stover will 
accommodate any residue resulting from the proposed use pattern. 
Aspirated grain fractions (AGF) were also collected. Analysis of the 
treated samples showed that residue of both TMS and PMG concentrated in 
AGF, but the combined levels are less than the existing tolerance in 40 
CFR 180.489 for aspirated grain fractions. No

[[Page 43328]]

change in the existing tolerance is required.
    c. Sweet corn. Residue data are available for sulfosate in a total 
of 12 trials conducted in 7 EPA regions and 11 different states. The 
proposed tolerance of 20 ppm (of which no more than 5 ppm is TMS) for 
sweet corn forage; the proposed tolerance of 0.15 ppm (of which no more 
than 0.1 ppm is TMS) for sweet corn kernels plus cobs with husks 
removed; and the proposed tolerance of 165 ppm (of which no more than 
65 ppm is TMS) for sweet corn stover will accommodate any residue 
resulting from the proposed use pattern.
    d. Leaves of root and tuber vegetables group (except radish). 
Residue data are available for sulfosate in a total of 15 trials in the 
representative commodties of turnips and sugar beets in 8 EPA regions 
and 12 different states. Residue data are also available for sulfosate 
in a total of five trials in radish conducted in four EPA regions and 
four different states. The proposed tolerance of 0.25 ppm (of which no 
more than 0.2 ppm is TMS) for the leaves of the root and tuber 
vegetable group (except radish) and the proposed tolerance of 10 ppm 
(of which no more than 8 ppm is TMS) for radish tops will accommodate 
any residue resulting from the proposed use pattern.
    e. Root vegetables subgroup 1-A (except radish). Residue data are 
available for sulfosate in a total of 20 trials in the representative 
commodities of sugar beets, radish, and carrots in 8 EPA regions and 10 
different states. Residue data are also available for sulfosate in a 
total of six trials in turnips conducted in five EPA regions and six 
different states. The proposed tolerance of 0.15 ppm (of which no more 
than 0.1 ppm is TMS) for the root vegetables subgroup (except radish) 
and the proposed tolerance of 16 ppm (of which no more than 15 ppm is 
TMS) for radish roots will accommodate any residue resulting from the 
proposed use pattern.
    Sugar beets treated at a 5x exaggerated rate for processing were 
obtained. No residues above the limit of quantitation (LOQ) were found 
in any of the sugar beet magnitude of the residue studies nor in the 5x 
exaggerated rate treated sugar beet samples so a processing study is 
not required. No tolerances are required for sugar beet refined sugar, 
dried pulp, or molasess at the proposed use rates.
    f. Tuberous and corm vegetables subgroup 1-D. Residue data are 
available for sulfosate in a total of 12 trials in the representative 
commodity, potatoes, in 7 EPA regions and 10 different states. The 
proposed tolerance of 1 ppm (of which no more than 0.5 ppm is TMS) for 
the tuberous and corm vegetables subgroup will accommodate any residue 
resulting from the proposed use pattern.
    Potatoes for processing were obtained and samples were processed 
into potato flakes, chips, and wet peel. Analysis of the treated 
samples showed that residue of TMS concentrated in potato flakes. The 
proposed tolerance for potato flakes of 2 ppm (of which no more than 
1.5 ppm is TMS) is adequate to accommodate any residues arising from 
this use pattern in potatoes. No tolerances are required for potato 
chips and potato wet peel.
    g. Pistachio. Residue data are available for sulfosate for 
representative commodities of the nut crop group (pecans, walnuts, and 
almonds). Residues were below the LOQ of 0.05 ppm in all samples. These 
data are sufficient to support a tolerance in pistachio. The proposed 
tolerance for pistachio of 0.05 ppm is the same as the established 
tolerance in 40 CFR 180.489 for the tree nut group and is adequate to 
accommodate any residues arising from this use pattern in pistachios.
    ii. Magnitude of residue in animals--a. Ruminants. The maximum 
dietary burden in dairy cows results from a diet comprised of 20% AGF, 
60% wheat forage, 15% sweet corn stover, and 5% cotton gin by-products 
for a total dietary burden of 427 ppm. The maximum dietary burden in 
beef cows results from a diet comprised of 20% AGF, 25% sweet corn 
stover, 25% sorghum grain, 25% wheat forage, and 5% cotton gin by-
products for a total dietary burden of 438 ppm. Comparison to a 
ruminant feeding study at a dosing level of 1,000 ppm indicates that 
the appropriate tolerance levels resulting from these proposed 
additional uses are covered by existing tolerances in 40 CFR 180.489, 
except milk. The appropriate tolerance for milk is 2 ppm.
    b. Poultry. The maximum dietary burden in poultry results from a 
diet comprised of 80% sorghum grain and 20% soybean hulls for a total 
dietary burden of 43 ppm. Comparison to a poultry feeding study at a 
dosing level of 50 ppm indicates that the appropriate tolerance levels 
are covered by existing tolerances in 40 CFR 180.489, except poultry 
meat by-products. The appropriate tolerance for poultry meat by-
products is 0.5 ppm.

B. Toxicological Profile

    1. Acute toxicity. Several acute toxicology studies have been 
conducted placing technical grade sulfosate in toxicity category III 
and IV.
    2. Genotoxicty. The toxicological endpoints for sulfosate are 
discussed in Unit 3.B. of the Federal Register notice of April 8, 1999 
(64 FR 17171) (FRL-6071-2).
    3. Reproductive and developmental toxicity. The toxicological 
endpoints for sulfosate are discussed in Unit B.3. of the Federal 
Register notice of April 8, 1999 (64 FR 17171).
    4. Subchronic toxicity. The toxicological endpoints for sulfosate 
are discussed in Unit 3.B. of the Federal Register notice of April 8, 
1999 (64 FR 17171).
    5. Chronic toxicity. The toxicological endpoints for sulfosate are 
discussed in Unit 3.B. of the Federal Register notice of April 8, 1999 
(64 FR 17171).
    6. Animal metabolism. The metabolism of sulfosate has been studied 
in animals. The residues of concern for sulfosate in meat, milk, and 
eggs are the parent ions PMG and TMS only.
    7. Metabolite toxicology. There are no metabolites of toxicological 
concern. Only the parent ions, PMG and TMS, are of toxicological 
concern.
    8. Endocrine disruption. Current data suggest that sulfosate is not 
an endocrine disruptor.

C. Aggregate Exposure

    1. Dietary exposure--i. Food. For the purposes of assessing the 
potential dietary exposure, Zeneca has utilized the tolerance level for 
all existing and pending tolerances; and the proposed maximum 
permissible levels of 120 ppm for cotton gin by-products; 40 ppm for 
cotton undelinted seed; 0.25 ppm for leaves of root and tuber 
vegetables group (except radish); 0.05 ppm for pistachio; 2 ppm for 
potato flakes; 16 ppm for radish roots; 10 ppm for radish tops; 0.15 
ppm for root vegetables subgroup (except radish); 35 ppm for sorghum 
grain; 0.2 ppm for sorghum forage; 140 ppm for sorghum stover; 20 ppm 
for sweet corn forage; 0.15 ppm for sweet corn, kernels + cob with 
husks removed; 165 ppm for sweet corn stover; 1 ppm for tuberous and 
corm vegetables subgroup; 0.5 ppm in poultry meat by-products; 2 ppm in 
milk; and 100% crop treated acreage for all commodities. Assuming that 
100% of foods, meat, eggs, and milk products will contain sulfosate 
residues and those residues will be at the level of the tolerance 
results in an overestimate of human exposure. This is a very 
conservative approach to exposure assessment.
    a. Chronic exposure. For all existing and pending tolerances and 
the proposed maximum permissible levels proposed in this notice of 
filing, the potential exposure for the U.S. population is 0.04 
milligrams/kilograms

[[Page 43329]]

body weight per day (mg/kg/bwt/day) (17.6% of RfD). Potential exposure 
for children's population subgroups range from 0.02 mg/kg bwt/day (7.8% 
of RfD) for nursing infants (1 year old) to 0.12 mg/kg bwt/day (47.8%) 
for children 1-6 years old. The chronic dietary risk due to food does 
not exceed the level of concern (100%).
    b. Acute exposure. The exposure to the most sensitive population 
subgroup, non-nursing infants, is 23.5% of the acute RfD at the 
95th percentile. The acute dietary risk due to food does not 
exceed the level of concern (100%).
    ii. Drinking water. Results from computer modeling indicate that 
sulfosate in ground water will not contribute significant residues in 
drinking water as a result of sulfosate use at the recommended maximum 
annual application rate (8.00 lbs. active ingredient/acre). The 
computer model uses conservative numbers, therefore it is unlikely that 
ground water concentrations would exceed the estimated concentration of 
0.014 parts per billion (ppb), and sulfosate should not pose a threat 
to ground water.
    The surface water estimates are based on an exposure modeling 
procedure called Generic Expected Environmental Concentration (GENEEC). 
The assumptions of two applications of 4.00 lbs. active ingredient/acre 
resulted in calculated estimated maximum concentrations of 58 ppb 
(acute, based on the highest 56-day value) and 10 ppb (chronic, 
average). GENEEC modeling procedures assumed that sulfosate was applied 
to a 10-hectare field that drained into a 1-hectare pond, 2-meters deep 
with no outlet.
    As a conservative assumption, because sulfosate residues in ground 
water are expected to be insignificant compared to surface water, it 
has been assumed that 100% of drinking water consumed was derived from 
surface water in all drinking water exposure and risk calculations. To 
calculate the maximum acceptable acute and chronic exposures to 
sulfosate in drinking water, the dietary food exposure (acute or 
chronic) was subtracted from the appropriate (acute or chronic) RfD. 
Drinking water levels of concern (DWLOCs) were then calculated using 
the maximum acceptable acute or chronic exposure, default body weights 
(70 kg-adult, 10 kg-child), and drinking water consumption figures (2 
liters-adult, 1 liter-child).
    The maximum concentration of sulfosate in surface water is 58 ppb. 
The acute DWLOCs for sulfosate in surface water were all greater than 
5,400 ppb. The estimated average concentration of sulfosate in surface 
water is 10 ppb which is much less than the calculated levels of 
concern (>1,300 ppb) in drinking water as a contribution to chronic 
aggregate exposure. Therefore, for current and proposed uses of 
sulfosate, Zeneca concludes with reasonable certainty that residues of 
sulfosate in drinking water would not result in unacceptable levels of 
aggregate human health risk.
    2. Non-dietary exposure. Sulfosate is currently not registered for 
use on any residential non-food sites. Therefore, residential exposure 
to sulfosate residues will be through dietary exposure only.

D. Cumulative Effects

    There is no information to indicate that toxic effects produced by 
sulfosate are cumulative with those of any other chemical compound.

E. Safety Determination

    1. U.S. population--i. Acute risk. Since there are no residential 
uses for sulfosate, the acute aggregate exposure only includes food and 
water. Using the conservative assumptions of 100% of all crops treated 
and assuming all residues are at the tolerance level for all 
established and proposed tolerances, the aggregate exposure to 
sulfosate will utilize 12.3% of the acute RfD at the 95th 
percentile for the U.S. population. The estimated peak concentrations 
of sulfosate in surface and ground water are less than DWLOCs for 
sulfosate in drinking water as a contribution to acute aggregate 
exposure. Residues of sulfosate in drinking water do not contribute 
significantly to the aggregate acute human health risk considering the 
present use and uses proposed in this action.
    ii. Chronic risk. Using the conservative exposure assumptions 
described above, the aggregate exposure to sulfosate from food will 
utilize 17.6% of the chronic RfD for the U.S. population. The estimated 
average concentrations of sulfosate in surface and ground water are 
less than DWLOCs for sulfosate in drinking water as a contribution to 
chronic aggregate exposure. Residues of sulfosate in drinking water do 
not contribute significantly to the aggregate chronic human health risk 
considering the present uses and uses proposed in this action.
    2. Infants and children. The data base on sulfosate relative to 
prenatal and postnatal toxicity is complete. Because the developmental 
and reproductive effects occurred in the presence of parental 
(systemic) toxicity, these data do not suggest an increased prenatal or 
postnatal sensitivity of children and infants to sulfosate exposure. 
Therefore, Zeneca concludes, upon the basis of reliable data, that a 
100-fold uncertainty factor is adequate to protect the safety of 
infants and children and an additional safety factor is unwarranted.
    i. Acute risk. Using the conservative exposure assumptions 
described above, the aggregate exposure to sulfosate from food will 
utilize 23.5% of the acute RfD at the 95th percentile for 
the most highly exposed group, children (1-6 years). The estimated peak 
concentrations of sulfosate in surface and ground water are less than 
DWLOCs for sulfosate in drinking water as a contribution to acute 
aggregate exposure. Residues of sulfosate in drinking water do not 
contribute significantly to the aggregate acute human health risk 
considering the present uses and uses proposed in this action.
    ii. Chronic risk. Using the conservative exposure assumptions 
described above, we conclude that the percent of the RfD that will be 
utilized by aggregate exposure to residues of sulfosate is 47.8% for 
children (1-6 years), the most highly exposed group. The estimated 
average concentrations of sulfosate in surface and ground water are 
less than DWLOCs for sulfosate in drinking water as a contribution to 
chronic aggregate exposure. Residues of sulfosate in drinking water do 
not contribute significantly to the aggregate chronic human health risk 
considering the present uses and uses proposed in this action.

F. International Tolerances

    There are no Codex maximum residue levels established for 
sulfosate.
