To the Reader:

I am pleased to present the Pesticide Data Program’s (PDP) 18th Annual

Summary, which includes data from calendar year 2008. PDP data continue to

demonstrate that the Nation’s food supply is among the safest in the world.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture implemented PDP in May 1991. Since then,

PDP has tested a wide range of commodities in the U.S. food supply. Using a

rigorous statistical approach to sampling and the most current laboratory methods,

PDP has tested fresh and processed fruit and vegetables, grains and grain

products, nuts and nut products, milk and dairy products, beef, pork, poultry,

catsh, corn syrup products, honey, pear juice concentrate, barley, oats, rice,

bottled water, groundwater, and treated and untreated drinking water for pesticide

residues.

PDP data are essential for the implementation of the 1996 Food Quality

Protection Act that directs the Secretary of Agriculture to collect pesticide

residue data on foods that are highly consumed by infants and children. The U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) uses PDP data as a critical component

for dietary assessments of pesticide exposure. The extensive and reliable PDP

results provide realistic exposure information to the EPA assessment process.

PDP is a partnership with cooperating State agencies that are responsible for

sample collection and analysis. Twelve States participated in the program during

2008: California, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana,

New York, Ohio, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. Sound conclusions

about the U.S. food supply can be drawn from PDP results because together

the sampling States represent all regions of the country and more than half the

Nation’s population.

The format of this Annual Summary is intended to provide the reader with

thorough and accurate information. A detachable form is included at the end of

this report for your comments and suggestions on how we can further improve

this summary.

Sincerely,

Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

In 1991, the U.S. Department of Agriculture

(USDA) Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS)

was charged with designing and implementing

the Pesticide Data Program (PDP) to collect data

on pesticide residues in food. This 18th summary

presents results for samples collected in 2008.

Program Operations: AMS, through its Monitoring

Programs Ofce (MPO), oversees the planning

and policy development for PDP. MPO meets

regularly with the U.S. Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) and other stakeholders (e.g.,

industry and grower groups) to establish program

priorities and direction. Participating States have a

prominent role in program planning activities and

policy establishment, particularly policies relating

to Quality Assurance (QA). The USDA National

Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) provides

sampling support to PDP and statistically reliable

data on chemical usage at the State level and

collects economic data that link chemical usage

with economic characteristics.

Data Uses: PDP data are used primarily by EPA

to prepare realistic pesticide dietary exposures for

continuing pesticide re-registration activities in

accordance with the 1996 Food Quality Protection

Act (FQPA) and ongoing registration review

responsibilities. PDP provides high-quality data

on residues in food, particularly foods most likely

consumed by infants and children, including minor

crops. Minor crops are those grown on 300,000

or fewer acres in the United States – for example,

many fruit and vegetable crops are dened as minor

crops.

PDP data are also used by the U.S. Food and

Drug Administration (FDA), USDA’s Economic

Research Service (ERS) and Foreign Agricultural

Service (FAS), participating States, academic

institutions,chemicalmanufacturers,environmental

interest groups, food safety organizations, and

groups within the private sector representing

food producers. PDP data are used by the U.S.

Government and the agricultural community

to examine pesticide residue issues affecting

agricultural practices, integrated pest management,

and U.S. trade, particularly in the competitive

global market. PDP also provides data to support

technical activities for the Codex Committee on

Pesticide Residues.

Risk Assessment: In estimating the potential risks

of consumption of pesticide residues from food,

EPA uses a step-wise tiered approach. As a rst

step, EPA may use a conservative, worst-case

scenario and assume a pesticide is applied to the

fullest extent permitted by the pesticide label,

which is, on every acre of each approved crop at

the maximum rate and frequency allowed. EPA

may also assume that residues on treated crops

are present at the maximum allowable levels.

Exposure estimates based on such assumptions

are likely to signicantly exceed actual exposure.

When an initial assessment indicates a potential

risk, EPArenes its assessment using more realistic

exposure data. Renements may include the use

of additional data such as: (1) the percent of a crop

treated with a pesticide; (2) studies of the effects of

washing, cooking, processing, and storage; and (3)

residue monitoring data. During the renements of

this exposure assessment, PDP data can be pivotal.

PDP sampling procedures were designed to capture

residues in the food supply as close as possible to

the time of consumption. PDP concentrates its

efforts to provide realistic pesticide residue data

on foods most often consumed by infants and

children and incorporates recommendations made

by the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) in its

1993 report Pesticides in the Diets of Infants and

Children.

Participants: In 2008, sampling and/or testing

program operations were carried out with the

support of 12 States: California, Colorado, Florida,

Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New

York, Ohio, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin.

Grain sampling was performed by USDA’s

Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS). Three

Federal laboratories also provided testing services:

USDA’s AMS National Science Laboratory (NSL),

USDA’s Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards

Administration (GIPSA) Laboratory, and U.S.

EPA’s Analytical Chemistry Laboratory (ACL).

Participating water utilities provided drinking

water samples that were tested by the Montana
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

x

and New York State laboratories. Groundwater

samples from domestic wells were collected by

homeowners and tested by the Minnesota laboratory.

MPO is responsible for administering the program,

coordinating sampling activities, directing technical

performance issues and quality assurance measures,

and managing database activities.

Sampling: PDP commodity sampling is based on a

rigorous statistical design that ensures the data are

reliable for use in exposure assessments and that

can be used to draw various conclusions about the

Nation’s food supply. Pesticides and commodities

included each year in PDPare selected based on EPA

data needs and on information about the types and

amounts of food consumed by infants and children.

Fruit and vegetable, almond, honey, cat sh, and 

rice samples collected by each of the 10 sampling

States (California, Colorado, Florida, Maryland,

Michigan, New York, Ohio, Texas, Washington, and

Wisconsin) are apportioned according to that State’s

population. Samples are randomly chosen close to

the time and point of consumption (i.e., distribution

centers rather than at farm gate) and re ect what is 

typically available to the consumer throughout the

year. Samples are selected without regard to country

of origin, variety, or organic labeling. The monthly

sampling rate is 62 samples per commodity, except

for highly seasonal commodities. For seasonal

commodities, sampling rates are adjusted to re ect 

market availability. Sampling rates for grain are

based on production.

Results: During 2008, PDP tested 13,380 fresh

and processed fruit and vegetables, almonds,

honey, cat sh, corn grain, rice, groundwater, and 

treated and untreated drinking water for various

insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and growth

regulators. Of the 13,380 total samples collected

and analyzed, 10,382 were fresh and processed fruit

and vegetables, including: apple juice, asparagus,

blueberries (fresh/frozen), broccoli, canned

kidney beans, celery, grape juice, green beans,

green onions, greens (collard/kale), nectarines,

peaches, potatoes, spinach, strawberries, summer

squash, sweet corn (fresh on-the-cob/frozen),

sweet potatoes, and tomatoes. PDP also tested 186

almond, 558 honey, 552 catsh, 650 corn grain, 

184 rice, 249 groundwater, and 619 treated and

untreated drinking water samples.

For fresh and processed fruit and vegetables,

almonds, honey, cat sh, and rice, approximately 

76.4 percent of all samples tested were from U.S.

sources, 19.8 percent were imports, 2.7 percent

were of mixed national origin, and 1.1 percent were

of unknown origin. Approximately 20 percent of

the apple juice samples and 29 percent of the honey

samples were of mixed national origin. Corn grain,

groundwater, and treated and untreated drinking

water were all from U.S. sources.

Of the 11,960 samples of fresh and processed

fruit and vegetables, almonds, honey, corn grain,

and rice samples analyzed, the overall percentage

of total residue detections was 1.6 percent. The

percent of total residue detections is obtained by

comparing the total number of residues detected

and the total number of analyses performed for

each commodity. The percentage of total residue

detections for fresh fruit and vegetables ranged from

0 to 3.3 percent, with a mean of 1.9 percent. The

percentage of total residue detections for processed

fruit and vegetables ranged from 0 to 2.2 percent,

with a mean of 0.6 percent. The percentage of total

residue detections for almonds was 1.4 percent,

for honey was 0.4 percent, for corn grain was 0.7

percent, and for rice was 0.7 percent.

For samples containing residues, the vast majority

of the detections were well below established

tolerances and/or action levels. Before allowing the

use ofa pesticide onfood crops,EPAsetsa tolerance,

or maximum residue limit, which is the amount of

pesticide residue allowed to remain in or on each

treated food commodity. Established tolerances are

listed in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40,

Part 180. In setting the tolerance, EPA must make

a safety  nding that the pesticide can be used with 

“reasonable certainty of no harm” and that residues

at (or below) the tolerance are safe. The reporting

of residues present at levels below the established

tolerance serves to ensure and verify the safety of

the Nation’s food supply.

Excluding cat sh, groundwater, and treated 

and untreated drinking water, 30 percent of all

samples tested contained no detectable pesticides

[parent compound and metabolite(s) combined],

24 percent contained 1 pesticide, and 46 percent
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

xi

contained more than 1 pesticide. Low levels of

environmental contaminants were detected in

celery, collard and kale greens, spinach, summer

squash, and cat sh at concentrations well below 

levels that trigger regulatory actions. Residues

exceeding the tolerance were detected in 60 (0.5 %)

of the 11,960 samples tested in 2008 – 58 samples

contained one residue exceeding the established

tolerances and two samples contained two residues

exceeding the established tolerance. Residues with

no established tolerance were found in 442 (3.7 %)

of the 11,960 samples (413 samples with 1 residue

each, 23 samples with 2 residues each, 4 samples

with 3 residues each, and 2 samples with 4 residues

each). In most cases, these residues were detected

at very low levels and some residues may have

resulted from spray drift or crop rotations.

For groundwater, 59 of the 135 collection sites

(44%) contained low levels of detectable residues,

measured in parts per trillion. Forty-four different

pesticide residues (including metabolites) were

detected in groundwater.

In  nished drinking water, PDP detected low 

levels (measured in parts per trillion) of some

pesticides, primarily widely used herbicides and

their metabolites. Fifty-nine different residues

were detected in the  nished drinking water and 

63 residues were detected in the untreated intake

water. The majority of pesticides, metabolites,

and isomers included in the PDP testing pro les 

were not detected. None of the detections in the

 nished water samples exceeded established EPA 

Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs), Health

Advisory (HA) levels, or established Freshwater

Aquatic Organism (FAO) criteria.

What Consumers Should Know: The purpose of

PDP is to provide EPA with information about the

level of pesticides being indirectly consumed by

the general public through foods. This information

is used to assist EPA in establishing and reviewing

the effectiveness of existing pesticide residue limits

to protect public health. PDP is required by law to

focus on products frequently consumed by infants

and children.

PDP laboratory operations are designed to detect

the smallest possible levels of pesticide residues

possible, even when those levels are well below the

safety margins established by EPA. It is important

to note that the mere presence of a pesticide on

food does not indicate the food is unsafe. In

2008, PDP analyzed 11,960 samples of fresh and

processed food commodities (excluding cat sh, 

groundwater, and treated and untreated drinking

water). Overall, the percentage of residues

detected (the number of residues detected divided

by the total number of analyses performed for each

commodity) was 1.6 percent. More than 99 percent

of the samples analyzed did not contain residues

above the safety limits (tolerances) established

by EPA and 96.3 percent of the samples analyzed

did not contain residues for pesticides that had no

tolerance established.

Of all samples collected and analyzed in 2008, 67.5

percent were fresh fruits and vegetables, many of

which are often eaten in a fresh, raw state. Health

experts and the U.S. Food and DrugAdministration

agree washing fresh fruit and vegetables before

eating is a healthful habit. Consumers can reduce

pesticide residues if they are present by washing

fruit and vegetables with cool or lukewarm tap

water.

Data Availability: PDP continually strives to

improve methods for collection, testing, and

reporting data. These data are freely available

to EPA and other Federal and State agencies

charged with regulating and setting policies on

the use of pesticides. They also are available to

all stakeholders by hard copy, Internet, or custom

reports generated by MPO. Additional copies of

the PDP Annual Summary may be obtained by

This summary consists of the following sections: (I.) Introduction, (II.) Sampling Operations,

(III.) Laboratory Operations, (IV.) Database Management, and (V.) Sample Results and Discussion

I. Introduction

The Pesticide Data Program (PDP), which was

initiatedin1991tocollectdataonpesticideresiduesin

food, nowhasanimportant role in theimplementation

of the 1996 Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA).

The law directs the Secretary of Agriculture to

collect pesticide residue data on commodities most

frequently consumed by infants and children. PDP

data are used primarily by the U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) to assess dietary exposure

during the review of the safety of existing pesticide

tolerances (Maximum Residue Limits).

Because PDP collects data on food commodities

primarily for exposure assessment, program

operations differ markedly from those followed

by regulatory monitoring programs for tolerance

enforcement. PDP samples are collected closer to

the point of consumption and are prepared emulating

consumer practices. Sampling is based on EPA data

needs and does not impede commodity distribution.

Laboratory operations are designed to achieve the

lowest detectable levels rather than quick sample

turnaround. As a dietary risk assessment support

program, PDP focuses its pesticide testing on

registered uses for the commodities in the program

rather than screening for all potential illegal uses.

Figure 1(a) illustrates PDP program policy

development and planning operations. Primary

contributors to these activities include the

participating States, EPA, U.S. Department of

Agriculture’s (USDA’s) National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), and additional stakeholders

including industry and grower groups. Figure 1(b)

depicts PDP primary data users including EPA, the

U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), USDA’s

Economic Research Service (ERS) and Foreign

Agricultural Service (FAS), participating States,

academic institutions, chemical manufacturers,

environmental interest groups, food safety

organizations, and groups within the private sector

representing food producers. Other Federal, State,

and foreign government agencies and industry

have used PDP data to promote the export of U.S.

commoditiesto international markets. Additionally,

the Codex Alimentarius Committee on Pesticides

Residues recognizes PDP methodologies as of cial 

and validated methods for the determination of

pesticide residues in foods.

In 2008, sampling services were provided by 10

States (California, Colorado, Florida, Maryland,

Michigan, New York, Ohio, Texas,

Washington, and Wisconsin) and the USDA

Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS).

Sampling services also were provided by

participating drinking water facility personnel at

13 individual sites in 11 States [Arizona, Florida,

Georgia, Indiana, Maryland (2 sites),

Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio,

Texas, and Virginia (2 sites)]. In addition, a

voluntary groundwater survey was continued in

2008 with homeowners at 135 sites in agricultural

areas, mostly along the Atlantic Coastal Plains

and Florida, collecting potable well samples for

analysis. Laboratory services were provided by the

States of California, Colorado, Florida, Michigan,

Minnesota, Montana, New York, Ohio, Texas, and

Washington; the Agricultural Marketing Service

(AMS) National Science Laboratory (NSL); the

GIPSA Laboratory; and, the U.S. EPA Analytical

Chemistry Laboratory (ACL). The AMS Monitoring Programs Of ce (MPO) is responsible for 

overall management of PDP.

Figure 2 shows the States that participate in program

sampling and/or testing as well as the States in

their direct distribution network. Together, these

States represent about 50 percent of the Nation’s

population and all 4 census regions of the U.S.

They also represent major U.S. producers of fruit

and vegetables. AMS works closely with EPA

to select commodities and pesticides for testing

and in the selection of drinking water sites. The

selected commodities represent the highest U.S.

consumption, with an emphasis on foods consumed

by infants and children. Appendix A provides a list

of commodities tested by PDP from the beginning

of the program in 1991 through 2009.

Fruit and vegetable samples are collected at terminal

markets and large chain store distribution centers

from which food commodities are supplied to

supermarkets and grocery stores. Sampling at these

locations allows for residue measurements that

include pesticides applied during crop production

and those applied after harvest (such as fungicides

and growth regulators) and takes into account

residue degradation while food commodities are

in storage. Participation as a PDP sampling site is

voluntary, which sets it apart from State and Federal

enforcement programs. In 2008, approximately

600 sites granted access and provided information,

including site volume data, to sample collectors.

Voluntary cooperation is important to PDP and

makes it possible to adjust sampling protocols in

response to uctuations in food distribution and

production.

Whole grain samples are collected by trained

USDA Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS)

inspectors. Treated and untreated drinking water

samples are collected on-site by trained personnel

at selected water treatment facilities across the

country. Groundwater samples are collected from

private potable wells by homeowners and State

health department technicians. Sites are selected

based on geographic locale and proximity to

agricultural areas.

Pesticides screened by PDP include those with

current registered uses and compounds for which

toxicity data and preliminary estimates of dietary

exposure indicate the need for more extensive

residue data. PDP also monitors pesticides for

which EPA has modied use directions (i.e.,

reduced application rates or frequency) as part

appendices list the specic pesticides tested in

the program: fruit and vegetables (Appendix B),

almonds (Appendix C), honey (Appendix D),

(Appendix G), potable groundwater (Appendix H),

and municipal drinking water (Appendix I).

II. Sampling Operations

♦ Background

The goal of the PDP sampling program is to obtain

a statistically defensible representation of the U.S.

food supply.PDPdata reect actual pesticide residue

exposure from food. Using a rigorous statistical

design, PDP has developed extensive procedures

that ensure samples are randomly selected from the

national food distribution system and reect what

is typically available to the consumer.

In 2008, fruit, vegetables, almonds, honey, catsh,

and rice were randomly collected by trained State

inspectors at terminal markets and large chain

store distribution centers throughout the country.

Surrogate or “proxy” sites (retail markets) are

occasionally used to collect these samples when the

commodity of interest is unavailable at a terminal

market or distribution center. In these instances,

the commodity is selected in the rear storage area

of the retail facility so possible contamination by

the consumer is eliminated and allows capture of

sample information from product boxes. In 2008,

12.9 percent of fruit, vegetable, almond, honey,

catsh, and rice samples were collected at proxy

sites. The commodities most often collected at

these facilities were apple juice, grape juice, honey,

and catsh.

Corn grain samples were collected from trucks,

hopper cars, and barges by trained USDA FGIS

inspectors. Treated and untreated drinking water

samples were collected on-site by trained personnel

at selected water treatment facilities across the

country. Potable groundwater samples were

collected from private domestic wells by the well

owners. Participation in this program is voluntary,

with site selections based on agricultural chemical

usage in the watershed and geographic location.

At all sampling locations, information is usually

available about the identity and origin of the

sample. Sample information is captured at the time

of collection for inclusion in the PDP database.

PDP sample origin data identify the State or

country where the commodity was produced. A

comparison of PDP sample origin data to State

production and import data by USDA’s NASS

shows PDP sampling is representative of the U.S.

food supply. PDP sampling operations are adjusted

according to product availability. The number

of fruit, vegetable, almond, honey, catsh, and

rice samples collected in each participating State

is determined by State population. The number

and location of collected corn grain samples are

determined by annual domestic production gures.

The number and location of drinking water samples

from water treatment facilities are determined by

EPA pesticide registration information needs. Each

local watershed has its own unique characteristics;

therefore, sample collection for this commodity

is not intended to reect national trends, rather

PDP collects samples in areas where it is known

that targeted pesticides are heavily used. The

number and location of groundwater samples are

determined based on geographic region, location in

an agricultural area, and the willingness of the well

owners to participate in the program. The quarterly

collection schedule for all 2008 commodities is

shown in Table 1.

PDP State sample collectors are trained to adhere

to detailed program Standard Operating Procedures

(SOPs) that provide criteria for site selection and

specic instructions for sample selection, shipping

and handling, and chain-of-custody. SOPs are

updated as needed and serve as a technical reference

in conducting program sampling reviews to ensure

program goals and objectives are met. SOPs for

PDP sampling are available on the Internet at www.

ams.usda.gov/pdp. On a quarterly basis, sample

collectors are provided with commodity Fact

Sheets and QuickReference Guidesthat listspecic

collection details for individual commodities that

have been added to the program.

Temperature-sensitive samples are packed in heavyduty, temperature-controlled containers. Holding

temperatures are preserved throughout transit time

with the inclusion of ample frozen cold packs and

insulating materials. Non-temperature-sensitive

samples do not require temperature-controlled

containers; however, they are shipped in heavy-duty,

well-cushioned containers. To preserve sample

integrity, most samples are shipped the same day as

collection by overnight delivery. Non-refrigerated

processed commodities (almonds, bottled juices,

canned beans, honey, and rice) are often shipped

by ground transportation to reduce shipping costs.

Corn grain samples are collected in pesticidefree polyethylene bags and shipped in canvas

pouches or boxes to the laboratory where the

samples are refrigerated pending analysis. Raw

intake and treated drinking water samples from

water treatment plants and groundwater samples

collected by well owners are collected in specially

prepared bottles containing dechlorinating agents

to halt potential compound degradation, packed

with proper cushioning and cold packs, and shipped

the same day as collection to their respective

laboratory by overnight delivery.

Electronic Sample Information Forms (e-SIFs) are

usedforchain-of-custodyandtocaptureinformation

needed to characterize the sample. Sample

collectors use handheld or laptop computers in the

 eld to record sample identi cation information 

suchas:(1) Stateof samplecollection,(2) collection

date, (3) sampling site code, (4) commodity code,

and (5) testing laboratory code. Information from

these  ve data elements is combined to form 

a unique PDP identi cation number for each 

sample. Other available information about each

sample is also recorded, such as collector name;

the State or country of origin; product variety;

production claims such as organic, post-harvest

chemical applications; and grower, packer, and/or

distributor locations. The e-SIFs are electronically

mailed the same day as sample collection or, at

the latest, by the next morning after collection to

ensure that sample information is received at each

laboratory by the time samples arrive for analysis.

Refer to Section IV on Database Management for

more information on the e-SIF system.

Participating State agencies compile and maintain

lists of sampling sites. In 2008, approximately

600 sites granted access and provided information,

including site volume data, to sample collectors.

The States, in turn, provide AMS and NASS

with annual volume information for commodities

distributed at each site. This information is used

to weight the site to determine the probability for

sample selection. For example, a weight of 10

may be given to a site that distributes 100,000

pounds of produce annually and a weight of 1 is

given to a site that distributes 10,000 pounds. The

probability-proportionate-to-size method of site

selection then results in the larger site being 10

times more likely to be selected for sampling than

the smaller site.

Participating States work with NASS to develop

statistical procedures for site weighting and

selection. States are also given the option to have

NASS perform their quarterly site selection. The

number of sampling sites and thevolume of produce

distributed by the sites vary greatly among States.

Sampling plans that include sampling dates, sites

(primary and alternate), targeted commodities, and

testing laboratories are prepared by each State on

a quarterly basis. Collection of commodities is

randomly assigned to weeks of the month, prior to

selection of speci c sampling dates within a week. 

Because sampling sites are selected for an entire

quarter, States may assign the sites to particular

months based on geographic location.

State population  gures are used to assign the 

number of fruit, vegetable, and other specialty

samples scheduled for collection each month.

These population- and distribution-network-based

numbers result in the following monthly collection

assignments for each State: California, 14;

Colorado, 2; Florida, 7; Maryland, 4; Michigan,

6; New York, 9; Ohio, 6; Texas, 8; Washington,

4; and Wisconsin, 2. The schedule results in a

monthly target of 62 samples per commodity, or

744 samples per commodity per year.

The total number of samples collected in each

State for each commodity is listed in Table 2.

Figure 2 illustrates the participating collection

States and the laboratories to which samples

were shipped. The total number of samples per

commodity and the percentage of each that were

either domestic, imported, or of unknown origin

are shown in Figure 3. The origin of some fresh

commodities can vary greatly throughout the year.

Graphic examples of this variation can be found

in Figure 4 where differences in origin (domestic

vs. import) are depicted by month for blueberries,

green beans, and tomatoes. Fresh and processed

fruit and vegetable, almond, cat sh, honey, and 

rice samples originated from 43 States and 22

foreign countries (refer to Appendix J). Corn

grain, groundwater, and drinking water samples

are excluded from Appendix J because they rely

on differential sampling frames.

vegetables, including fresh and processed products.

The fresh commodities collected for PDP were

asparagus, blueberries, broccoli, celery, green beans,

green onions, greens (collard greens and kale),

nectarines, peaches, potatoes, spinach, strawberries,

summer squash, sweet corn on-the-cob, sweet

potatoes, and tomatoes. The processed commodities

included apple juice, frozen blueberries, canned

kidney beans, grape juice, and frozen sweet corn. All

fresh fruit and vegetable samples weighed either 3

or 5 pounds. Three pounds were collected for such

low-weight commodities as greens and strawberries

and 5 pounds were collected for larger, high-weight

commodities such as nectarines and tomatoes. For

commodities that can be quite large (such as summer

squash), a minimum of two units were collected to

maintain sample representativeness. For processed

samples, apple and grape juice volumes were one

quart; frozen blueberries weighed one pound; canned

kidney bean samples weighed 28 ounces; and frozen

sweet corn niblets weighed 3 pounds.

♦ Almonds

Between January and March 2008, 186 almond

samples were collected for PDP by trained State

sample collectors and analyzed for pesticide residues.

One-pound samples were collected from routine

PDP sampling sites that included major chain-store

distribution centers and terminal markets. When

they were not available at these sites, almonds

were collected from proxy sites (retail stores).

Approximately 47 percent of the almond samples

were obtained from proxy sites. Only whole, raw,

shelled, natural almonds were collected; blanched,

roasted, salted, smoked, avored, ground, or

slivered almonds were not sampled. Analysis was

performed by the AMS NSL located in Gastonia, NC.

Distribution of residues in almonds may be found in

Appendix C.

♦ Honey

PDP State samplers collected 558 honey samples

between January and September 2008. Twelve- to

32-ounce containers of 100 percent pure Grade A

honey were collected from routine PDP sampling

sites that included chain-store distribution centers

and terminal markets. Approximately 44 percent of

the samples were collected at proxy (retail) sites. In

addition to the commonly available clover honey,

other blossom-avored honey (such as orange

blossom and wildower), creamed honey, and

honey with honeycombs in the jar were randomly

collected when available. Imitation honey (made

from rice or corn syrup), solid comb honey, honey

with added avors, and B or C grade honey were

not included in the collection scheme. Distribution

of residues in honey may be found in Appendix D.

♦ Catsh

In April 2008, EPA requested collection of catsh

data to examine levels of pesticides present in

catsh, whether from environmental contaminants

or from pesticides used in aquaculture. Current,

comprehensive data on pesticide residues on

sh available to the U.S. consumer is largely

unavailable. Sampling was designed to capture

domestic and imported products, including

farm-raised catsh. Approximately 75 of all

domestic farm-raised sh is catsh. The primary

domestic production States in 2008 are, in order

of production, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas,

and Texas. The primary import countries are

China and Vietnam. PDP sampled catsh available

at designated sampling locations regardless of

country of origin, in order to capture results for

catsh consumed by the American public.

PDP collected and analyzed 552 catsh samples in

2008. Each sample consisted of 1 pound of fresh

or frozen raw catsh. Proxy/retail sites provided

66.7 percent of catsh samples, while distribution

centers provided 30.1 percent of samples, terminal

markets 1.9 percent, and wholesale or specialty sh

markets 1.3 percent. Whole catsh samples were

not collected; rather, only llets, nuggets, strips,

or steaks were obtained for testing. Both bones-in

and no bones were acceptable sample types. To

ensure catsh samples arrived at the laboratory

in acceptable condition, samples were rst frozen

overnight and then shipped the following day by

overnight air with ample frozen cold packs and

insulating materials surrounding all sample units.

Analysis was performed by the NSL, Gastonia,

NC.

Although naming conventions vary across States

and regions of the United States and among
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

12

countries, PDP sample collectors relied solely on

the label for identi cation of cat sh ( llets, nuggets, 

strips, steaks) regardless of the family, genus, or

species names that may or may not have been listed

on the product. Farm-raised or wild, and domestic

or imported cat sh were collected on a random, asavailable basis. The majority of samples were farmraised and of domestic origin. Approximately 85

percent of the samples were farm-raised, less than

1 percent was wild-caught, and the remainder of

the samples had no available source information.

Seventy-nine percent of the samples originated in

the United States, 19 percent were imported, and 2

percent were of unknown origin. These collection

percentages are consistent with the U.S. Department

of Commerce and NASS data on domestic production

 gures for 2008. Distribution of residues in cat sh 

may be found in Appendix E.

♦ Corn Grain

Trained USDA FGIS inspectors collected 650 corn

samples for PDP for the 2007 crop year (harvested

betweenSeptember2007andApril2008andcollected

between September 2007 and June 2008). Sample

collection rates, on a statewide basis, were calculated

on the basis of crop production totals averaged over

a 3-year period. Samples were drawn from trucks

(24% of samples), hopper cars (70% of samples),

and barges (6% of samples). Corn grain slated for

export was excluded from the sampling scheme.

PDP chain-of-custody procedures are similar to

those used for fruit and vegetable samples. Sample

information for corn included: inspection location,

inspection point code,  eld of ce location, of cial 

agency collecting the sample, carrier type (truck,

hopper car, or barge), carrier identi cation code, 

State of origin, collection date, and inspector’s

name. Pesticide residue analysis was performed

by the USDA GIPSA Technical Services Division

Laboratory located in Kansas City, Missouri.

Corn samples were collected from 130 cities in 20

States. There were no imported corn samples; all

were of domestic origin. The origin and number

of samples collected from each State are displayed

in Figure 5. Distribution of residues in corn grain

may be found in Appendix F.

♦ Rice

In 2008, PDP collected 184 samples of milled

rice. Samples were collected from routine PDP

sampling sites, which included major distribution

centers and terminal markets. Three-pound rice

samples included short, medium, and long grain

white rice; brown rice; basmati rice; jasmine rice;

and texmati rice. Further processed rice types,

such as Minute Rice®and Uncle Ben’s Rice® were

not included in the sampling scheme. Analysis

was performed by the USDA Grain, Inspection,

Packers and Stockyards Administration (GIPSA)

Laboratory in Kansas City, MO. Results for rice

are shown in Appendix G.

♦ Drinking Water

Potable Groundwater from Domestic Wells:

In 2008, 249 samples from 135 groundwater

wells used for potable water supplies located in

agricultural regions in 12 States were collected.

Each well was sampled twice, in both spring and

fall, by the well owner, orin Florida, by State health

department technicians. Sampling was performed

at the kitchen faucet following morning showersto

ensure that all water from the pressure tank and any

storage tanks was used and that the water wasfresh

from the well and not stagnant. It is assumed that

most households do notspray household pesticides

around the kitchen faucet; therefore, the chance

of contamination is minimal. All groundwater

samples were sent to the Minnesota Department

of Agriculture laboratory for analysis.

Based on a request from EPA, PDP targeted sites

for this study in the Atlantic Coastal Plain region

and Florida. An additional site in California was

also sampled. Well depths ranged from 35 to

600 feet below land surface. Figure 6 shows the

distribution of groundwater collection sites for

the 2008 PDP testing program.

Municipal Drinking Water: In the municipal

water sampling project, 619 drinking water

samples were collected for pesticide residue

analysis from 13 sites in 11 States. The sites

are community water systems that draw water

from surface water sources. Samples were

collected bimonthly by trained water treatment

facility personnel and sent to State laboratories

in Montana and New York for analysis. Samples

included water collected from both the raw

water intake and the  nished drinking water 

(after treatment). The untreated intake water and

treated water were collected as paired samples,

taking into account each individual plant’s

processing time. Dechlorination and preservative

chemicals were added to the samples at the time

of collection. Samples were packed with frozen

cold packs and shipped overnight to the testing

laboratories.

The States and the number of sites in each State

(in parentheses) from which municipal water

samples were drawn included Arizona (1),

Florida (1), Georgia (1), Indiana (1), Maryland

(2), Minnesota (1), Montana (1), North Dakota

(1), Ohio (1), Texas (1), and Virginia (2). Site

selection was made in collaboration with EPA’s

Of ce of Pesticide Programs and Of ce of Water. 

All selected sites met the following criteria: (1)

useofsurfacewaterastheprimarysourceofwater

and (2) location in regions of heavy agriculture

where known amounts of targeted pesticides of

interest were applied. Water treatment method

was not a part of the selection criteria. General

locations of water collection sites and testing

laboratories are illustrated in Figure 7.

III. Laboratory Operations

♦ Overview

Thirteen laboratories (10 State and 3 Federal)

performed analyses for PDP. These laboratories

are equipped with instrumentation capable of

detecting residues at very low levels. Laboratory

staff members receive intensive training and

must demonstrate analytical pro ciency on an 

ongoing basis.Program scientistscontinuallytest

new technologies and develop new techniques

to improve the levels of detection. Major

changes in methodology are evaluated and their

soundness demonstrated and documented in

accordance with PDP SOPs.

♦ Fresh and Processed Commodities

PDP participating laboratories analyzing fruit

and vegetables monitored 314 parent pesticides,

metabolites, degradates, and/or isomers using

Multiresidue Methods (MRMs). Upon arrival at

the testing facility, samples are visually examined

for acceptability and discarded if determined to be

inedible (decayed, extensively bruised, or spoiled).

Accepted samples are prepared emulating the

practices of the average consumer to more closely

represent actual exposure to residues. Fresh

samples are prepared as follows: (1) asparagus

spears are washed, with woody stems removed;

(2) blueberries, potatoes, and sweet potatoes are

washed; (3) broccoli is visually examined, any

fresh leaves are washed; (8) bagged spinach is not

washed prior to homogenization; (9) nectarines

and peaches are washed, the stems and leaves

removed, and pitted; (10) strawberries are washed

with stems and leaves removed; (11) fresh sweet

corn on the cob is husked, washed, and kernels

are removed from the cob; and (12) tomatoes are

washed with the stem area minimally removed.

Processed samples are prepared as follows: (1)

fresh and reconstituted apple and grape juice

samples are mixed until homogeneous; and (2)

frozen blueberries, canned beans, and frozen sweet

corn niblets are homogenized with their entire

contents, including any liquid present. Samples of

almonds, corn grain, and rice were homogenized

as received by the laboratory. Samples of honey

were considered homogeneous and required

no further processing prior to analysis. Frozen

catsh samples were homogenized with dry ice.

Laboratories are permitted to refrigerate, up to 72

hours, incoming fresh fruit and vegetable samples

of the same commodity to allow for different

sample arrival times from collection sites. Frozen

and canned commodities may be held in storage

(freezer or shelf) until the entire sample set is

ready for analysis.
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

Samples are homogenized using choppers

and/or blenders and separated into analytical

portions (aliquots) for analysis. If testing cannot

be performed immediately, the entire analytical

set is frozen at -40°C or lower, according to

PDP’s Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/

QC) requirements. Surplus aliquots not used for

the initial testing are retained frozen in the event

that replication of analysis or veri cation testing 

is required.

For analysis of fruit and vegetables, residues are

extracted using organic solvents followed by

various cleanup procedures such as Solid Phase

Extraction (SPE). The California and Texas

laboratories used modi cations of the MRM 

developed by the California Department of

Food and Agriculture (CDFA). The Michigan

laboratory used a modi ed version of the 

“Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and

Safe” (QuEChERS) method. The Washington

laboratory used the CDFAmethod for most of the

year before validating the QuEChERS method,

which uses less acetonitrile, a move prompted

by the worldwide acetonitrile shortage. The

Florida laboratory used an acetonitrile extraction

followed by an aminopropyl SPE cleanup

procedure for most of the year, before switching

to and validating the QuEChERS method. The

New York laboratory used a method based on

the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada SPE

method with some modi cations based on the 

Luke procedure. The Ohio laboratory used

variations and combinations of the FDA Luke

I [Section 302 of Pesticide Analytical Manual

I] and Luke II [FDA Laboratory Information

Bulletin 3896] extraction procedures. All

MRMs are determined, prior to use and through

appropriate method validation procedures, to

produce equivalent data for PDP analytical

purposes.

Gas chromatography (GC) and liquid

chromatography (LC), coupled with selective

detectors and mass spectrometry (MS) systems,

are used for the initial identi cation and 

quantitation of pesticides. Laboratories are

increasing their use of GC- and LC-MS systems

and are speci cally focusing on LC-MS/MS 

techniques to broaden the scope of testing and

to keep pace with emerging analyte chemistries.

All residues initially identi ed must be veri ed. 

Con rmation is accomplished by MS, alternate 

detection systems, or alternate chromatographic

behavior. Veri cation is considered crucial due 

to the complexity of commodity matrices and

the low concentrations of detected residues. The

veri cation process provides an extra measure of 

con dence in the identi cation of the analyte and 

its concentration.

♦ Almonds

The AMS NSL in Gastonia, NC, tested almond

samples for 72 parent pesticides, metabolites,

degradates, and/or isomers. Upon arrival at the

testing facility, samples were visually examined

for acceptability and discarded if spoiled or

damaged. The samples were stored at room

temperature until they were homogenized. The

almond samples were homogenized by grinding

with dry ice in a large, high-speed food processor.

The sample homogenates were placed into

sample cups (approximately 60 grams per cup)

and allowed to sublime at -20°C overnight before

storing at -70°C prior to analysis. A 20-gram

aliquot was weighed for each almond sample

followed by organic solvent extraction and sample

cleanup using ultra-low refrigeration (-70°C),

centrifugation, and dispersive SPE. For each

almond sample, two extra sample homogenate

cups, not used for the initial testing, were retained

frozen in the event that replication of analysis or

veri cation testing was required. Samples were 

analyzed using GC-MS and LC-MS/MS.

♦ Honey

The AMS NSL in Gastonia, NC, tested honey

samples for 164 parent pesticides, metabolites,

degradates, and/or isomers. Upon arrival at the

testing facility, samples were visually examined

for acceptability and discarded if spoiled or

leaking. If not extracted immediately after arrival,

samples were stored at room temperature until

extracted. The honey samples were homogeneous

and required no further processing. Two 10-gram

aliquots of each honey sample were weighed,

followed by the addition of 10 mL of water,

and extracted using a slight modi cation of the 
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

17

QuEChERS method. One aliquot was extracted

with acetonitrile for the LC analysis and the

second with ethyl acetate for the GC analysis.

For each honey sample not used for the initial

testing, a portion was retained frozen in the event

that replication of analysis or veri cation testing 

was required. Samples were analyzed using GCMS and LC-MS/MS.

♦ Cat sh

The AMS NSL tested cat sh samples for 220 

parent pesticides, metabolites, degradates, and/

or isomers. Upon arrival at the testing facility,

samples were visually examined for acceptability

and discarded if warm to the touch, spoiled, or

leaking. If not homogenized immediately after

arrival, samples were frozen at 0°C or lower

until homogenized. The cat sh samples were 

homogenized by grinding with dry ice in a

large, high-speed food processor. The sample

homogenates were placed into sample cups

(approximately 60 grams per cup) and allowed

to sublime at -20°C overnight before storing at

-70°C prior to analysis. A 20-gram aliquot was

weighed for each sample followed by organic

solvent extraction and sample cleanup using ultralow refrigeration (-70°C), centrifugation, and

dispersive SPE. Two extra sample homogenate

cups, not used for the initial testing, were retained

frozen in the event that replication of analysis or

veri cation testing was required. Samples were 

analyzed using GC-MS and LC-MS/MS.

♦ Corn Grain

The USDA GIPSA laboratory in Kansas City,

MO, analyzed corn grain samples for 106

parent pesticides, metabolites, degradates, and/

or isomers. Upon arrival at the testing facility,

samples were visually examined for acceptability

and discarded if spoiled or otherwise inedible.

Corn grain samples were refrigerated at 4°C

or lower until time of grinding, after which the

samples are stored at -80°C until extraction.

Surplus sample aliquots, not used for the initial

testing, were retained refrigerated in the event

that replication of analysis or veri cation testing 

was required. Extraction of corn grain samples

was accomplished using an acetonitrile-based

solvent extraction and SPE cleanup coupled with

GC-MS and LC-MS/MS detection.

♦ Rice

The USDA GIPSA laboratory in Kansas City,

MO, analyzed rice samples for 81 parent

pesticides, metabolites, degradates, and/or

isomers. Upon arrival at the testing facility,

samples were visually examined for acceptability

and discarded if spoiled, or otherwise inedible.

Rice samples were refrigerated at 4°C or lower

until time of grinding, after which the samples are

stored at -80°C until extraction. Surplus sample

aliquots, not used for the initial testing, were

retained refrigerated in the event that replication

of analysis or veri cation testing was required. 

Extraction of rice samples was accomplished

using an acetonitrile-based solvent extraction

and SPE cleanup coupled with GC-MS and LCMS/MS detection.

♦ Potable Groundwater from Domestic Wells

The Minnesota laboratory analyzed groundwater

for 94 parent pesticides, metabolites, and

isomers. These compounds were determined to

be of interest to EPA based on data needs for

risk assessment as required under FQPA. Upon

arrival at the testing laboratory, samples were

visually examined for acceptability (within 24

hours of collection, no leakage). Samples were

refrigerated until time of analysis. One liter of the

sample was extracted for compounds amenable to

GC-MS analysis and one liter was extracted for

chloroacetanilide compounds to be analyzed via

LC-MS/MS. A third bottle was held in reserve

in case of breakage or laboratory accident.

♦ Municipal Drinking Water

The Montana and New York laboratories

analyzed drinking water for 217 parent pesticides, metabolites, degradates, and isomers.

These compounds were determined to be of

interest to EPA. Paired samples of the raw

intake water (untreated) and disinfected  nished 

drinking water (treated) were collected for

analysis. Treated water samples were collected

after the untreated samples at a time interval
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

consistent with the hydraulic residence. Hydraulic

residence is the average time from entry into the

treatment facility until distribution as treated water.

Each sample consisted of three 1-liter amber glass

bottles collected at the water treatment facility.

Upon arrival at the testing laboratory, samples were

visually examined for acceptability and discarded

if warm to the touch or leaking. Samples were

refrigerated until time of analysis and extracted

within 96 hours of collection. A 1-liter bottle was

extracted for compounds amenable to GC analysis

and another one for compounds amenable to LC

analysis. The remaining bottle was held in reserve

or extracted for specialty compounds requiring

separate extraction/analytical procedures [e.g.,

ethane sulfonic acid (ESA) and oxanilic acid (OA)

analogs of alachlor, acetochlor, and metolachlor].

The extraction methods used were based on SPE

methods developed by the U.S. Geological Survey

(USGS) and were independently validated by each

testing laboratory. Samples were analyzed using

MS detection (single and tandem GC and LC

technologies) or selective detectors.

♦ Formetanate Hydrochloride

In 2008, PDP conducted a special survey of

formetanate hydrochloride (HCl) on nectarines

and peaches. Homogenates of 667 nectarine and

595 peach samples were shipped by the California,

Ohio, and Washington laboratories to the U.S. EPA

ACL in Fort Meade, MD, for analysis. The ACL

used a modication of the QuEChERS method

coupled with LC/MS-MS analysis to determine

formetanate hydrochloride. Additionally, the New

York laboratory analyzed 186 samples of green

onions for formetanate hydrochloride using a

method based on the Agriculture and Agri-Food

Canada SPEmethod with some modications based

on the Luke procedure and LC/MS-MS detection.

♦ Quality Assurance Program

The primary objectives of the QA/QC program

are to ensure the reliability of PDP data and the

performance equivalency of the participating

laboratories. Direction for the PDP QA program

is provided through SOPs initially based on EPA

Good Laboratory Practices (GLPs). The PDP

SOPs provide uniform administrative and sampling

procedures, as well as laboratory operations and data

analyses guidelines. The program SOPs are revised

annually to accommodate changes in the program

and are aligned with International Organization for

Standardization (ISO) requirements. PDP State

food laboratories are accredited to ISO 17025.

Laboratory Technical Advisory Group and Quality

Assurance Ofcers: A Technical Advisory Group,

comprised of laboratory Technical Program

Managers (TPMs) and Quality Assurance Ofcers

(QAOs), is responsible for annually reviewing

program SOPs and addressing QA issues. For dayto-day QA oversight, PDP relies on the Quality

Assurance Unit (QAU) at each participating

facility. The QAU operates independently from

the laboratory staff and is responsible for reviewing

all data generated for PDP and for performing

quarterly internal program audits. Preliminary data

review procedures are performed on-site by each

laboratory’s QAU. Final review procedures are

performed by MPO staff who are responsible for

collating and reviewing data for conformance with

SOPs.

Method Performance Requirements: Laboratories

are required to determine and verify the limits of

detection (LODs) and limits of quantitation (LOQs)

for each pesticide/commodity pair. LODs depend

on matrix, analyte, and methods used (extraction

and instrumental). LODs for each pesticide/

commodity pair are shown in the applicable crop

results appendix. Additional method performance/

validation requirements include modules for

consistent instrument response (linearity), method

range, and precision and accuracy.

Conrmation: Verication by MS or a suitable

alternate detection system is required for all

preliminary results. Veried residue amounts

greater than or equal to LOD and below LOQ are

reported as below quantiable level (BQL). BQLs

are assigned values at one-half the LOQ, and are

used along with values greater than or equal to LOQ

and non-detects in dietary risk assessments, when

appropriate.

Routine Quality Control Procedures: PDP

procedures for QC are intended to assess method

and analyst performance during sample preparation,
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

19

extraction, and clean-up. To maximize sample

output and decrease the QC/sample ratio, samples

are analyzed in analytical sets that include the test

samples and the following components:

• Reagent Blank - For analysis of fruit and

vegetables, almonds, honey, catsh, corn grain,

and rice, an amount of distilled water, equivalent to

the natural moisture content of the commodity, is

run through the entire analytical process to conrm

glassware cleanliness and system integrity.

• Matrix Blank - A previously analyzed sample

of the same commodity, which contains either

very low concentrations of known residues or no

detectable residues, is divided into two portions.

The rst portion is used to determine background

information on naturally occurring chemicals and

the second to prepare a matrix spike.

• Matrix Spike(s) - Prior to extraction, a portion

of matrix blank is spiked with marker pesticides to

determine the precision and accuracy of the analyst

and instrument performance. Marker pesticides

are compounds selected from different pesticide

classes (e.g., organochlorines, organophosphates,

carbamates, conazoles, imidazolinones, macrocyclic lactones, neonicotinyls, phenoxy acid

herbicides, pyrethroids, strobilurins, sulfonyl urea

herbicides, triazines, uracils), with physical and

chemical characteristics representative of their

corresponding pesticide class. Marker pesticides

may be used to monitor recovery instead of spiking

all pesticides. This use of marker pesticides

optimizes the resources required to analyze the

thousands of analyte/matrix combinations in the

program while still allowing evaluation of daily

recovery patterns. In addition, each laboratory

must perform matrix spikes at least quarterly

for each analyte/crop combination it reports.

Some laboratories choose to rotate spikes of all

compounds on a set-to-set basis so that the amount

of spike recovery data obtained actually exceeds

the minimal requirements previously stated.

During 2008, PDP laboratories quantitated a total

of 73,047 matrix spikes, with an overall mean

recovery of 93 percent and an overall percent

coefcient of variation (% C.V.) of 29 percent.

The % C.V. is calculated as the standard deviation

divided by the mean.

• Process Control Spike - A compound with

physical and chemical characteristics similar to

those of the pesticides being tested is used to

evaluate the analytical process on a sample-bysample basis. Each of the analytical set components,

except the reagent and matrix blanks, is spiked with

process controls. During 2008, PDP laboratories

quantitated a total of 51,735 process controls on

13,381 samples, with an overall mean recovery of

95 percent and an overall C.V. of 20 percent. Of

these process controls, 470 (0.9%) were reruns due

to initial failure to meet PDP recovery criteria. The

rerun values are not included in these statistics.

Prociency Testing: All facilities are required

to participate in PDP’s Prociency Testing (PT)

program. For laboratories testing fresh and processed fruit and vegetables, almonds, honey,

catsh, corn grain, and rice, multiresidue test

samples containing pesticides of known quantities

are periodically issued and analyzed under the

same conditions as routine samples. Fortication

levels are generally 1 to 10 times the LOQ. For

each multiresidue round, one compound per set is

typically repeated within the round to provide an

indicator of repeatability. The resulting data are

used to determine performance equivalency among

the testing laboratories and to evaluate individual

laboratory performance. During 2008, PDP laboratories received:

- six multiresidue fruit and vegetable PT rounds

(broccoli, celery, green beans, spinach, strawberries,

summer squash), each consisting of three test

samples. These 18 samples were fortied with 11

to 12 compounds per round. Reported results for

fruit and vegetable samples yielded an overall mean

recovery of 88 percent and an overall C.V. of 33

percent.

- one catsh set consisting of 2 samples that were

fortied with a total of 16 compounds, and

- one honey set consisting of 3 samples that were

fortied with a total of 12 compounds.

Laboratories testing commodities for specialty

analytes, including formetanate and phenoxy acid

herbicides, were each issued a PT round during

2008:
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

20

- one nectarine set for formetanate analysis

consisting of three samples, each spiked only with

its speci ed target analyte, formetanate, and

- one potato set for phenoxy acid herbicide

analysis consisting of two samples forti ed with 

a total of eight phenoxy acid herbicides with two

compounds repeated within the round.

Additionally, during 2008, PDP laboratories

participated in the following PT testing

programs:

- the international AOAC® PT program, with

1 round for summer squash, forti ed with 10 

pesticides, and 1 round for tomatoes, forti ed 

with 9 compounds, and

- Food Analysis Performance Assessment scheme

(FAPAS) PT program, with one round for apples,

spiked with  ve compounds. 

Laboratories were evaluated based on z-scores for

reported compounds, as well as any reported false

negatives or false positives. Laboratories were

not held responsible for reporting compounds

not included in their routine screening method.

Overall, PDP laboratories performed as well or

better than other participating laboratories.

For water, two pro ciency sample sets were 

analyzed during 2008, with nine compounds

forti ed in each round. Custom-designed 

test solutions, based on testing pro les and 

detection limits, were used for spiking, rather

than distribution of spiked samples, due to

stability concerns. For each PT set, the vendor

supplied the laboratory’s QAU with the speci ed 

solution, which was diluted according to program

protocols. This solution was then used to fortify

replicate samples collected from PDP sampling

sites whose samples historically contained

multiple pesticides but not those included in the

spike solution. The spiked samples then were

presented to the staff members of each respective

laboratory for analysis.

On-site Reviews: MPO staff performs on-site

visits to determine compliance with PDP SOPs.

Improvements in sampling, chain-of-custody,

laboratory, recordkeeping, and electronic data

transmission procedures are made as a result of onsite reviews.

IV. Database Management

PDP maintains an electronic database at the MPO

in Manassas, VA, that serves as a central data

repository. The data captured and stored in the PDP

database include sample collection and product

information, residue  ndings, and process control 

recoveries for each sample analyzed, in addition

to QA/QC forti ed recoveries for each set of 

samples. Each calendar-year survey is stored in a

separate database structure, which allows easier

administration and data reporting. The PDP data

path is illustrated in Figure 8.

♦ Electronic Data Path

PDP utilizes the Remote Data Entry (RDE) system,

which is a customized software application that

allows participating State and Federal laboratories

to enter and transmit data electronically. The RDE

system is centralized with all user interface software

and database  les residing in Washington, D.C. 

The laboratory users need only a Web browser to

interface with the RDE system. Access is controlled

through separate user login/password accounts and

user access rights for the various system functions

based on position requirements. The RDE system

utilizes Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to

encrypt all data passed between users’ computers

and the central Web server.

A separate Windows®-based system allows sample

collectors to capture the standardized Sample

Information Form (SIF) electronically on handheld

or laptop computers. The e-SIF system generates

formatted text  les containing sample information 

that are e-mailed to PDP headquarters and then

imported into the Web-based RDE system.

The RDE data entry screens have extensive editing

functions and cross-checks built into the software

to ensure valid values are entered for all critical data

elements. This task is made easier by the practice

of capturing and storing standardized codes for

all critical alphanumeric data elements rather than

their complete names, meanings, or descriptions.

This coding scheme allows for faster and more

accurate data entry, saves disk storage space, and

allows the user to perform ad-hoc queries (data

searches) on the database easily. The data entry

screens also perform automatic edits on numeric

 elds, dates, and other character  elds to ensure 

entries are within prescribed boundaries.

At PDP headquarters, the RDE system allows

staff chemists to review the data on-line and then

to mark the data as ready-for-upload to the central

PDP database. A separate upload application

converts and passes the data to the PDP database,

which is maintained using Microsoft® Access and

SQL Server database tools. Access to the central

PDP database is limited to MPO personnel only

and is controlled through password protection

and user access rights.

♦ Data Reporting

The MPO staff frequently receives requests for

data from Government agencies and interested

outside parties.Ad-hoc queries and custom reports

are generated to  ll such requests. An electronic 

library of data queries is maintained to generate

standardized data summaries, including the data

tables, charts, and appendices in this annual

summary. Subsets of the PDP calendar year

databases are made available for download from

the PDP Web site. The data  les on the Web site 

are  xed-length text  les that contain a portion of 

the sampling data, all reported residue  ndings, 

and reference lists that can be used to interpret

the standardized codes used in the PDP data. The

data  les can be imported into de ned database 

structures and manipulated using common

database management software packages.

V. Sample Results and Discussion

♦ Sample Results

In 2008, PDP conducted surveys on a variety

of foods including fresh and processed fruit and

vegetables, almonds, honey, cat sh, corn grain, 

rice, groundwater, and treated and untreated

drinking water. Of the 13,380 samples collected

and analyzed, 10,382 were fresh and processed

fruit and vegetable commodities, 186 were almond

samples, 558 were honey samples, 552 were cat 

sh samples, 650 were corn grain samples, 184

were rice samples, 249 were groundwater

samples, and 619 were drinking water samples.

For fresh and processed fruit and vegetables,

almonds, honey, cat sh, and rice, approximately 

76.4 percent of all samples were produced in the

United States, 19.8 percent were imports, 2.7

percent of mixed origin, and 1.1 percent of unknown

origin. Appendix J shows the distribution of

sample origin by State or country. Of the domestic

samples, approximately 44 percent (4,030 of 9,061)

were grown, packed, and/or distributed in or from

California. Approximately 20 percent (74 of 372)

of the apple juice samples and 29 percent of the

honey samples (161 of 558) were of mixed national

origin. Corn grain, groundwater, and drinking

water are excluded from Appendix J because

they are targeted samples that rely on differential

sampling frames and are not collected from routine

PDP sample collection locations (i.e., terminal

markets and large chain store distribution centers

throughout the country). Corn grain samples are

collected from grain trucks, hopper cars, and

barges transporting domestically produced grain.

Groundwater samples are collected from private

domestic wells and treated and untreated drinking

water samples are collected by water treatment

facilities. Appendix K includes a comparison of

residues for selected commodities with a signi cant 

import component.

Table 3 gives an overview of the number of samples

analyzed and a summary of results for fresh and

processed fruit and vegetables, corn grain, rice,

honey, and almonds. The percent of total residue

detections and percent of non-detectable residues

are obtained by comparing the total number of

residues detected and the total number of nondetects to the total number of analyses performed

per commodity, respectively. The average number

of analyses performed per sample is also shown.

The percentage of total residue detections for fresh

fruit and vegetables ranged from 0 to 3.3 percent,

with a mean of 1.9 percent. The percentage of total

residue detections for processed fruit and vegetables

ranged from 0 to 2.2 percent, with a mean of 0.6

percent. The percentage of total residue detections

for almonds was 1.4 percent, honey 0.4 percent,

corn grain 0.7 percent, and rice 0.7 percent. Of the

11,960 samples analyzed, the overall percentage of

total residue detections was 1.6 percent. Excluded

from Table 3 are cat sh, groundwater, and treated 

and untreated drinking water, which are presented

separately in Appendix E (cat sh), Appendix H 

(groundwater), and Appendix I (drinking water).

Cat sh and water are not included in the statistics 

for overall sample results because residue levels,

if found, are mainly the result of environmental

contamination or transfer, rather than from

registered agricultural uses on the commodity.

Appendix B tabulates the distribution of residues

in fruit and vegetables for the complete 2008

data set. Information included in this appendix

are: number of samples analyzed for a particular

compound; number and percent of samples with

detections; range of concentrations detected; range

of analytical LODs; and EPA tolerance levels or

FDAaction levels. Appendices C, D, E, F, G, H, and

I provide the distribution of residues for almonds,

honey, cat sh, corn grain, rice, groundwater, and 

treated and untreated drinking water, respectively.

The individual sample data can be downloaded

from the PDP Website at http://www.ams.usda.

gov/pdp or obtained by contacting MPO.

Food monitoring data, together with dietary

consumption surveys, are used by EPA to estimate

dietary exposure to pesticides to ensure the safety

of existing pesticide uses. EPA uses all results

reported by PDP, including sample results reported

as below the LOD and those above the tolerance.

PDP laboratories are required to establish LODs

and report any instrumental response below

the LOD as a non-detect. LODs are established

experimentally for each pesticide/commodity pair

and are reported with each data set. The number of

non-detects can be used in conjunction with percent

crop treated data to determine what proportion

of these values may be counted as zero towards

the dietary exposure. As shown in Table 3, 98.4

percent of the analyses performed across all fresh

and processed fruit and vegetable commodities,

corn grain, rice, honey, and almonds were

reported as non-detects (i.e., results were below

the established LOD). For samples containing

residues, the vast majority of the detections were

well below established tolerances.

♦ Import vs. Domestic Residue Comparisons

Information about the origin of each PDP sample

is recorded when the sample is collected. Figure

3 illustrates the portion of the domestic and import

component for each of the PDP fruit and vegetable

commodities in 2008. The data generated by PDP

re ect pesticide residues in foods, both domestic 

and imported products, available to the U.S.

consumer. Many commodities are almost entirely

of domestic origin, such as spinach (96%) with

only minor import and unknown components (3%

and less than 1%, respectively). However, some

fresh commodities, such as blueberries, green

beans, and tomatoes, are from domestic growers

part of the year and imported during the remaining

months, as illustrated in Figure 4.

Comparisons of selected residues detected in

imported versus domestic blueberries, peaches,

and tomatoes can be found in Appendix K. These

sample sets were selected to compare data where

residues are present in greater than 10 percent of

the commodity and allow for the comparison of

individual residues. These data also show that the

residue pro les for domestic and imported crops 

are signi cantly different. 

The blueberry data in Appendix K illustrate, in

2007-2008 combined, boscalid, fenbuconazole,

phosmet, and pyraclostrobin were detected more

frequently in domestic samples than in imported

samples. For example, boscalid was detected in

49.9 percent of the U.S. samples, 28.1 percent in

the samples from Argentina, and 3.4 percent in the

samples from Chile. Carbendazim and iprodione

were detected more frequently in the samples from

Argentina (39.4% and 42.7%, respectively) and

Chile (29.4% and 33.7%, respectively) than in the

domestic samples (11.7% and 4.1%, respectively).

For peaches, iprodione and the organophosphates

azinphos methyl and chlorpyrifos were detected

more often in the imported peach samples than

in the domestic peach samples. Iprodione was

detected in 99.2 percent of the Chilean peaches

compared to 1.3 percent of the domestic samples.

Azinphos methyl was detected in 84.0 percent of

the Chilean samples compared to 1.8 percent of the

domestic samples. Chlorpyrifos was detected in
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

25

49.1 percent of the Chilean samples compared to

2.7 percent of the domestic samples. Conversely,

boscalid,  udioxonil, and methoxyfenozide (reduced 

risk pesticides registered as organophosphate

alternatives), phosmet (an organophosphate with

lower toxicity), and propiconazole were detected

more often in the domestic peach samples than the

imported peach samples. Boscalid was detected in

20.4 percent of the domestic peach samples and 0.5

percent of the Chilean peach samples. Fludioxonil

was detected in 68.1 percent of the domestic

samples and in 0.5 percent of the Chilean peach

samples. Methoxyfenozide was detected in 24.6

percent of the domestic peach samples and in 2.9

percent of the Chilean peach samples. Phosmet

and propiconazole were detected in 49.4 percent

and 16.3 percent (respectively) of the domestic

samples compared to 0.5 percent and 0.9 percent

(respectively) of the imported samples.

For tomatoes, chlorothalonil was detected slightly

more often on domestic tomatoes (16.9%) than

on tomatoes originating from Mexico (9.8%).

Azoxystrobin, endosulfan I, and endosulfan II were

detected slightly more frequently in tomatoes from

Mexico (23.7%, 14.4% and 21.1%, respectively)

than in tomatoes of U.S. origin (8.0%, 9.3% and

17.1%, respectively). Endosulfan sulfate was

detected with relatively equal frequency in both

the domestic (16.2%) and imported tomatoes from

Mexico (14.8%).

These differences in residue pro les may be 

attributed to recent U.S. registration decisions. The

1996 FQPA required EPA to reassess the safety

of existing tolerances and tolerance exemptions

by August 3, 2006, while simultaneously making

determinations about the reregistration of existing

pesticides and reviewing the registrations of pesticide end-use products. This tolerance reassessment

effort has led, among other things, to EPA decisions

to revoke or modify thousands of existingtolerances,

and to require the establishment of many new

tolerances, improving food safety and human health

protection in the United States. Many of these new

tolerances are for safer replacement pesticides.

Overall, residues detected in domestic samples

re ected the transition towards use of replacement 

pesticides, whereas imports had residues of

pesticides phased out of the U.S. market.

♦ National Estimates

National estimates for selected pesticide/

commodity pairs with detections in at least 5

percent of samples tested are shown in Appendix L.

In most cases for each pair, the levels of detected

residues are a small fraction of the tolerance level.

A range of values for the average sample residue

concentration (mean) for each pair is provided.

The lower value for the range is determined by

treating a sample without detectable residues as

if it had a residue concentration equal to zero.

The upper value is determined by treating such a

sample as if it had a residue concentration equal to

the LOD. Calculations for the 50th, 75th, and 90th

percentiles for each of the selected pairs are shown.

The ratio of the 90th percentile to the tolerance, as

a normalization factor, is also provided. Percent

detections and percentiles for all commodities

were weighted to re ect monthly variations in 

marketing

♦ Postharvest Applications

Pesticides can be applied before and after harvest

depending on the crop and approved label use.

PDP data capture both preharvest and postharvest

uses because samples are collected at points when

all pesticide applications have already occurred.

Pesticides applied postharvest are used primarily

as fungicides (e.g., azoxystrobin, imazalil,

o-phenylphenol, and thiabendazole) and sprouting

inhibitors (e.g., chlorpropham). Some detections

reported in Appendix B most likely re ect 

postharvest applications to the raw agricultural

commodity.

♦ Special Projects

Formetanate Hydrochloride: PDP conducted a

special survey to determine the relative frequency

and concentration of formetanate hydrochloride

(HCl) on nectarines and peaches. Homogenates

of 667 nectarine and 595 peach samples were

shipped by the California, Ohio, and Washington

laboratories to the U.S. EPA ACL in Fort Meade,

MD, for analysis. Appendix B shows that 355

samples (53.2%) of nectarines and 115 samples

(19.3%) of peaches exhibited detectable residues

of formetanate HCl.
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

Honey: The USDA, AMS, NSL conducted

testing for pesticide residues on 558 samples of

honey. The randomly collected samples included

 uid (viscous) honey, creamed honey, and jars 

containing liquid honey with honeycomb. Overall,

there were a total of 376 residue detections in

honey, representing 12 different pesticides.

The data for honey in Appendix D indicate that

coumaphos was detected most frequently in 180

samples (32.3%). 2,4-dimethylphenyl formamide

(2,4-DMPF), a metabolite of amitraz was detected

in 73 samples (13.1%). Fluvalinate was detected

in 69 samples (12.4%). Dicofol p,p’ was detected

in 32 samples (5.7%). Less than 5 percent of the

honey samples contained low levels of each of the

following residues: azoxystrobin, carbendazim,

chlorpyrifos, dicloran, methoxyfenozide, permethrin, piperonyl butoxide, and vinclozolin.

Cat sh: The USDA, AMS, NSL, conducted testing 

for pesticide residues on 552 cat sh samples. 

Overall, 44 different residues were detected in

the cat sh samples. The DDT metabolites DDE, 

p,p’ (84.6%) and DDD p,p’ (42.6%) were the

most frequently detected residues. Other residues

detected in more than 5% of the samples include:

diphenylamine (24.1%), DDD o,p’ (17.2%),

toxaphene (9.4%), diuron (8.0%), chlorpyrifos

(6.9%), and endosulfan sulfate (6.5%).

Diphenylamine (DPA) is an environmental

pollutant. DPA and derivatives are most

commonly used as stabilizers in nitrocellulosecontaining explosives and propellants, in the

perfume industry, and as antioxidants in the

rubber and elastomer industry. DPA is also widely

used to prevent post-harvest deterioration of

apple and pear crops. DPA is a parent compound

of many derivatives, which are used for the

production of dyes, pharmaceuticals, photography

chemicals, and further small-scale applications.

Diphenylamines are still produced worldwide

by the chemical industries and have been found

in soil and groundwater. Therefore, any  ndings 

in cat sh may arise from a number of attributable 

sources.

Diuron is used as an algaecide to control the

growth of blue-green algae, which can cause an

off- avor in cat sh. Residues may also be the 

result of allowed food handling establishment

uses. Finally, a number of low-level residue

 ndings were reported for residues for which no 

tolerance is established in  sh or cat sh. Appendix 

E provides details on the distribution of residues

for cat sh.

Corn Grain: The USDA GIPSA laboratory

conducted testing on 650 corn grain samples.

Appendix F shows that there were 15 different

residues detected in the corn grain samples. The

most frequently detected residue was malathion,

which was detected in 219 samples (33.7%).

Chlorpyrifos was detected in 116 samples (17.8%).

Other compounds detected in more than 1 percent

of the samples include: permethrin (5.7%),

pirimiphos methyl (3.1%), and piperonyl butoxide

(2.7%). Ametryn; cy uthrin; DDD p,p’; DDE 

p,p’; ethoprop; heptachlor epoxide; malathion

oxygen analog; metalaxyl; methoxychlor p,p’,

and metolachlor were detected in less than one

percent of the corn grain samples.

Rice: The USDA GIPSA laboratory conducted

testing on 184 rice samples. Appendix G shows

there were 13 different residues detected in the rice

samples. The most frequently detected residue

was piperonyl butoxide which was detected in

57 samples (31.0%). MGK-264 was detected in

27 samples (14.7%). Other compounds detected

in one or more percent of the samples include:

malathion (4.3%), resmethrin (2.2%), carbaryl

(1.1%), and DDD p,p’ (1.0%). Azoxystrobin;

DDT p,p’;  udioxonil; hydroprene; lindane; 

myclobutanil; and parathion methyl were detected

in less than one percent of the rice samples.

♦ Potable Groundwater from Domestic Wells

Approximately 15 percent of the U.S. population

obtains its domestic water from private wells.

Many of these wells are located in agricultural

areas and may be susceptible to pesticides, so in

dietary risk assessments, it is necessary to monitor

these shallow groundwater wells to account for

exposure through water consumption.

Pesticide mobility varies widely. Many pesticides

bind tightly to soils and therefore are unlikely to

be found in groundwater. Water-soluble pesti-
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

cides can dissolve in water and move through

the soil to reach the water table. Unlike surface

water, movement of pesticides in soils and rock

is much slower than the movement of surface

water (several centimeters per year for movement

in soils/rock compared to many meters per year

for movement in surface water; hence changes in

pesticide concentrations are much less variable

and samples need not be taken as frequently. For

this groundwater study, samples were taken twice

a year (spring and fall) rather than bimonthly as

with the surface water samples.

When pesticides are detected in groundwater,

the source is not always the immediate surface

above but can be where the water is entering, or

recharging, the aquifer. Thus, if pesticides are

being used in the recharge zone, they may be

transported through the aquifer to the well. Some

correlation can be made between depth and the

number of residues detected; however, depth is

not the sole factor in pesticide movement in an

aquifer.

In 2008, PDP scheduled sampling of 135 potable

groundwater wells in both the spring and fall. A

total of 249 samples were collected. Figure 6

shows the distribution of groundwater collection

sites for the 2008 PDP testing program. Of the

135 collection sites, 59 wells (44%) contained

detectable residues. Thirty-seven different

pesticide residues (including metabolites)

were detected. Concentrations varied from at or

near the detection limit up to 7.72 parts per

billion. Residue proles are shown in Appendix 

H.

♦ Municipal Drinking Water

In 2001, PDP began testing municipal waters

drawing from surface water sources because

surface water is more vulnerable to pesticides than

municipal waters that draw from groundwater

sources. Most municipal systems drawing from

groundwater draw from fairly deep (>200 foot)

aquifers that are not affected by pesticides.

Figure 7 shows the distribution of drinking

water sites for the 2008 PDP testing program.

Untreated and  nished drinking water samples 

were collected from community water systems in

Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland (2

sites), Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio,

Texas, and Virginia. Each watershed reects 

the local topography, watershed size, 

geomorphology, soil types, geology, land use,

land management practices, crop varieties,

pesticides applied, and application methods. Due

to the complexities associated with water quality

assessments, these data reect only the unique 

characteristics of the watersheds from which the

samples were obtained.

PDP analyzed 619 water samples from community

water systems using MRMs to test for 217

pesticides and metabolites. Treatment plants

participating in the 2008 survey draw from

surface water for primary source waters. The data

presented here are for the untreated water collected

at treatment plant intakes and treated water (postdisinfection) collected just prior to distribution

to customers. Fifty-nine different residues were

detected in the  nished drinking water and 63 

residues were detected in the untreated intake

water. Most of the detections were of commonly

used herbicides and their metabolites. The

majority of pesticides included in the PDP testing

pro les were not detected, and none of the 

detections in the  nished water samples exceeded 

EPA Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) or

Health Advisory (HA) levels.

Appendix I lists the MCL and/or HA values;

however, many of the compounds in the PDP

testing pro les do not have established regulatory 

standards. For comparative purposes, EPA Fresh

Aquatic Organism (FAO) criteria, which are much

lower than human-based MCLs or HA levels, also

are given. These criteria are lower than MCL or

HA levels due primarily to higher exposure to

these compounds because aquatic organisms live

all or most of their lives in water. During 2008,

no detections exceeded established FAO levels.

Additional information regarding EPA drinking

water standards is available at: http://www.epa.

gov/safewater/standard/setting.html.

Water treatment technologies vary widely and

may be based on the local water chemistry,

targeted contaminants needing removal, and cost.

Appendix I shows the concentration of detected
Pesticide Data Program—Annual Summary, Calendar Year 2008

28

residues in treated and untreated water. In most

cases, there were more detections in the untreated

water than in the treated water. In a few cases,

residues detected in the treated water were not

found in the untreated water. The data acquired to

date indicate the water treatment process removed

matrix interferences, allowing for a more sensitive

measurement in the treated water. Depending

on the treatment process employed, individual

pesticides are entirely, partially, or not removed

during the treatment process.

♦ Environmental Contaminants

Environmental contaminants are pesticides whose

uses have been canceled in the United States,

but their residues persist in the environment,

particularly in soil, where they may be taken up by

plants. PDP tracks environmental contaminants

to monitor their presence in the environment and

provides these data to Codex Alimentarius. These

data are also used to facilitate international trade.

DDT, DDD, and DDE: PDP screened samples

for various metabolites of DDT including: DDT

o,p’; DDT p,p’; DDD o,p’; DDD p,p’, DDE o,p’;

and DDE p,p’. Use of DDT has been prohibited

in the United States since 1972; however, due to

its persistence in the environment, residues of the

DDT p,p’, DDD p,p’, and DDE p,p’ metabolites

weredetectedinsomecommoditiestested. Ofthese,

the DDE p,p’ metabolite was the most frequently

detected. DDE p,p’ was detected mainly in cat sh 

(84.6%), spinach (34.7%), collard greens (28.7%),

kale greens (28.0%), and celery (13.9%). In all

cases, residues detected were much lower than the

FDA action levels. None of the water samples

(treated or untreated) had residues of DDT or its

metabolites. Details of residue results for DDT,

DDD, and DDE may be found in Appendices B,

C, D, E, F, G, and I.

Other Extraneous Pesticides: PDP screened

samples for other extraneous residues (environmental contaminants) including: aldrin; dieldrin;

heptachlor and its epoxide metabolite; chlordane

(cis/trans) and its metabolite oxychlordane, and

hexachlorobenzene (HCB). HCB was used

as a seed protectant until 1965 but, due to its

persistence, remains in soil and grasses. In 1974,

all aldrin and dieldrin uses were canceled in the

United States and, in 1978, all heptachlor uses

were canceled. In 1986, chlordane uses, except

termiticide uses, were canceled. Despite these

cancellations and because they persist in the

environment, residues of HCB, dieldrin, heptachlor

epoxide, and chlordane were detected in some of

the tested commodities. For example, dieldrin

was detected in 12.8 percent of summer squash

samples and 9.8 percent of kale greens samples.

All other detections of environmental contaminant

residues were at a frequency below 5 percent. For

all cases, the detected levels were much lower than

the FDA action levels. None of the water samples

(treated or untreated) had residues of aldrin,

dieldrin, heptachlor epoxide, or chlordane and its

metabolite oxychlordane. Details of residue results

for environmental contaminants may be found in

Appendices B, C, D, E, F, G, H, and I.

♦ Multiple Pesticide Residue Detections

By virtue of the MRMs employed, PDP provides

novel data that can be used by EPA to evaluate

exposure to multiple residues from the same

commodity. The data are crucial for assessments

that consider cumulative exposure to pesticides

determined to have common mechanisms of

toxicity. The distribution of multiple pesticides

occurring in samples tested during 2008 is

presented in Appendix M.

Thesedataindicatethatapproximately30percentof

all samples tested, excluding cat sh, groundwater, 

and treated and untreated drinking water, contained

no detectable pesticides, 24 percent contained 1

pesticide, and 46 percent contained more than 1

pesticide. Parent compounds and their metabolites

are combined to report the number of “pesticides,”

rather than the number of “residues,” as was

reported in summaries prior to 2003. For example,

a sample with positive detections for endosulfan I,

II, and sulfate would have been counted as three

residues in the 2002 Appendix L. That sample

would be counted as just one pesticide detected in

Appendix M of this Summary.

Two celery samples had detections of 13 pesticides

each. Most multiple residue detections result from

the application of more than one pesticide on a
crop during a growing season; however, a number

of other factors could contribute to multiple

detections. Pesticide spray drift, residue transfer

through crop rotation or at packing facilities, and/or

presence of persistent environmental contaminants

could all contribute to residue detections.

It should be noted that, in most cases, samples

analyzed by PDP are composites of 3 to 5 pounds

of commodity from the same lot. Therefore, the

estimated concentrations for multiple residue

detections in these composite sample results

may or may not re ect the number of pesticides 

per concentration in a single serving item of a

commodity.

♦ Tolerance Violations

A tolerance is de ned under Section 408 of 

the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act as

the maximum quantity of a pesticide residue

allowable on a raw agricultural commodity.

Tolerances are also applicable to processed foods.

The FQPA of 1996 contains an amendment to the

Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide

Act that requires the EPA to review each pesticide

registration every 15 years. Timely pesticide

data provided by PDP enables the EPA to re ne 

risk estimates used in the pesticide reregistration

process.

A tolerance violation occurs when a residue is

found that exceeds the tolerance level or when a

residue is found for which there is no established

tolerance. With the exception of meat, poultry,

and egg products, for which USDA is responsible,

FDA enforces tolerances for all imported and

domestic foods that move through interstate

commerce. Unlike enforcement programs, PDP

emphasizes determination of residues at the

lowest detectable levels rather than quick turnaround times. When PDP identi es samples with 

residues exceeding the tolerance or with residues

for which there is no established tolerance, these

detections are reported to FDA regional and

headquarters of ces. This noti cation is made in 

accordance with a Memorandum of Understanding

between USDA and FDA for the purpose of

pinpointing areas where closer surveillance may

be needed. FDA enforcement action has not been

a practical response to PDP analysis because of the

time required between sample collection and data

reporting.

Residues exceeding the established tolerance are

noted with an “X” in Appendices B, C, D, E, F, and

G. Similarly, residues for which a tolerance is not

established are noted with a “V.” The “X” and “V”

annotations are followed by a number indicating

the number of samples reported to FDA. The EPA

tolerances cited in this summary and Appendices

apply to 2008 and not to the current year. There

may be instances where tolerances may have been

recently set or revoked that would have an effect

on whether a residue is violative.

An established tolerance may apply to more than

one residue because pesticides may breakdown into

more than one metabolite or contain more than one

isomer. For example, the tolerance for endosulfan

combines residues of endosulfan I, endosulfan

II, and endosulfan sulfate; and organophosphate

tolerances may combine the parent compound and

the sulfone and sulfoxide metabolites. Therefore,

where applicable, the violations in Appendix N are

combined residues of parent and any isomers and/

or metabolites to count the total number of samples

with tolerance violations.

For fresh and processed fruit and vegetables, corn

grain,honey,andrice,atotalof493sampleswith541

residues were reported to the FDA as Presumptive

Tolerance Violations. Residues exceeding the

tolerance were detected in 60 (0.5 %) of the 11,960

samples tested. The samples containing residues

that exceed established tolerances include: 3

blueberry samples, 2 celery samples, 1 corn grain

sample, 2 green bean samples, 11 samples of

collard greens, 10 kale samples, 7 potato samples,

16 spinach samples, 2 samples of strawberries, 5

samples of summer squash, and 1 tomato sample.

Of those 60 samples, 9 were reported as imported

produce and 1 was of unknown origin. Fiftyeight samples contained one residue exceeding the

established tolerance and two samples contained

two residues exceeding the established tolerances.

Residues with no established tolerance were found

in 442 (3.7 %) of the samples, which included 397

fruit and vegetable samples, 2 samples of corn

Appendix A. Page 7 of 7
Appendix B

Distribution of Residues by Pesticide

in Fruit and Vegetables

Appendix B shows residue detections for all fruit and vegetable pesticide/commodity

pairs tested, including range of values detected, range of Limits of Detection (LODs), and

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tolerances for each pair. The EPA tolerances

cited in this summary and Appendices apply to 2008 and not to the current year. There may

be instances where tolerances may have been recently set or revoked that would have an

effect on whether a residue is violative or not.

In 2008, 10,382 fruit and vegetable samples were analyzed, of which 9,028 were fresh

product and 1,354 were processed product.

The Pesticide Data Program reports tolerance violations to the U.S. Food and Drug

Administration (FDA) as part of an interagency Memorandum of Understanding between

the U.S. Department of Agriculture and FDA. Residues reported to FDA are shown in the

“Pesticide/Commodity” column to the right of the commodity and are annotated as “X” (if the

residue exceeded the established tolerance) or “V” [if the residue did not have a tolerance

listed in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 180]. In both cases, these annotations

are followed by a number indicating the number of samples reported to FDA.

Action Levels (ALs) are shown in this appendix, where applicable, and denote Action

Level values established by FDA. Under the Food Quality Protection Act, responsibility for

establishing tolerances in lieu of ALs has been transferred to EPA. In the interim, ALs are

used.

NOTES

^ Only one distinct detected concentration or LOD value was reported for the pair.

NT = No tolerance level was set for that pesticide/commodity pair.

AL = Numbers shown are Action Levels established by FDA for some pesticides. Under Food Quality Protection Act, responsibility for

establishing tolerances in lieu of action levels has been transferred to EPA. In the interim, action levels are used.

(V) = Residue was found where no tolerance was established by EPA. Following "V" are the number of occurrences.

(X) = Residue was found which exceeds EPA tolerance or FDA action level. Following "X" are the number of occurrences.

** = Previously reported as lambda cyhalothrin total, which included lambda cyhalothrin (a 1:1 mixture of the cis-(1R,3R),S-enantiomer

and the cis-(1S,3S),R-enantiomer) as well as R157836 (a 1:1 mixture of the cis-(1S,3S),S-enantiomer and the cis-(1R,3R),

R-enantiomer).

Many of the listed tolerances are the sum of a parent compound and metabolite(s)/isomer(s). The reader is

advised to refer to EPA for the complete listing of compounds in tolerance expressions. The cited tolerances

apply to 2008 and not to the current year. There may be instances where a tolerance was recently set or

revoked that would have an effect on whether a residue is violative or not.

Appendix B. Page 80 of 80
Appendix C

Distribution of Residues by Pesticide

in Almonds

Appendix C shows residue detections for all compounds tested in almonds, including

range of values detected, range of Limits of Detection (LODs), and U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) tolerance references for each pair. The EPA tolerances cited in

this summary and Appendices apply to 2008 and not to the current year. There may be

instances where tolerances may have been recently set or revoked that would have an effect

on whether a residue is violative.

In 2008, the Pesticide Data Program (PDP) analyzed 186 almond samples. PDP

detected 9 different pesticide residues in the almond samples. All residue detections were

much lower than the established tolerances.

Action Levels (ALs) are shown in this appendix, where applicable, and denote Action

Level values established by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Under the Food Quality

Protection Act, responsibility for establishing tolerances in lieu of Action Levels has been

transferred to EPA. In the interim, Action Levels are used.

EPA tolerances as published in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 180

are expressed in parts per million (ppm). Because almond residues are expressed in parts

per billion (ppb), EPA tolerances have been multiplied by a factor of 1,000 as a basis for

comparison using a single scale. There is no intention to imply any more exactness in the

value than that originally expressed by EPA.

Appendix C. Page 3 of 3
Appendix D

Distribution of Residues by Pesticide

in Honey

Appendix D shows residue detections for all compounds tested in honey, including

range of values detected, range of Limits of Detection (LODs), and U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) tolerance references for each pair. The EPA tolerances cited in

this summary and Appendices apply to 2008 and not to the current year. There may be

instances where tolerances may have been recently set or revoked that would have an effect

on whether a residue is violative or not.

In 2008, the Pesticide Data Program (PDP) analyzed 558 honey samples. PDP

detected 12 different pesticide residues in the honey samples. All residue detections were

lower than the established tolerances for those compounds with established tolerances.

Based on PDP results, EPA has concluded that pesticide concentrations in honey did not

raise any concerns for human consumption since all detections were low in concentration and

therefore, dietary exposure based on honey would be low.

PDP reports tolerance violations to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

as part of an interagency Memorandum of Understanding between the U.S. Department

of Agriculture and FDA. Residues reported to FDA are shown in the “Pesticide” column

to the right of the pesticide name and are annotated as “X” (if the residue exceeded the

established tolerance) or “V” [if the residue did not have a tolerance listed in the Code of

Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 40, Part 180]. In both cases, these annotations are followed

by a number indicating the number of samples reported to FDA.

EPA tolerances as published in 40 CFR Part 180 are expressed in parts per million

(ppm). Because honey residues are expressed in parts per billion (ppb), EPA tolerances have

been multiplied by a factor of 1,000 as a basis for comparison using a single scale. There is

no intention to imply any more exactness in the value than that originally expressed by EPA.

NOTES

* = EPA tolerances have been multiplied by a factor of 1,000 as a basis for comparison using a single scale.

There is no intention to imply any more exactness in the value than that originally expressed by EPA.

^ = Only one distinct detected concentration or LOD value was reported for the pair.

NT = No tolerance level was set for that pesticide/commodity pair.

(V) = Residue was found where no tolerance was established by EPA. Following "V" are the number of occurrences.

Pesticide Types:

A = Acaricide

F = Fungicide, FM = Fungicide Metabolite

H = Herbicide

I = Insecticide, IM = Insecticide Metabolite

R = Insect Growth Regulator

S = Herbicide Safener

Many of the listed tolerances are the sum of a parent compound and metabolite(s)/isomer(s). The reader is

advised to refer to EPA for the complete listing of compounds in tolerance expressions. The cited tolerances

apply to 2008 and not to the current year. There may be instances where a tolerance was recently set or

revoked that would have an effect on whether a residue is violative or not.

Appendix D. Page 5 of 5
Appendix E

Distribution of Residues by Pesticide

in Catsh

Appendix E shows residue detections for all compounds tested in catsh, including

range of values detected, range of Limits of Detection (LODs), and U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) tolerance references for each pair. The EPA tolerances cited in

this summary and Appendices apply to 2008 and not to the current year. There may be

instances where tolerances may have been recently set or revoked that would have an effect

on whether a residue is violative or not.

In 2008, the Pesticide Data Program (PDP) analyzed 552 catsh samples. PDP

detected 44 different pesticide residues (including metabolites) in the catsh samples. The

majority of these residue detections are not associated with pesticide applications, but rather

are most likely attributable to environmental exposure and are covered by Action Levels (ALs)

established by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). One pesticide detected, diuron,

does have a tolerance for farm-raised n sh in order to cover its use as an aquatic herbicide

to control blue-green algal growth which can lead to an off-avor in farmed catsh. Residues

also may be the results of allowed food handling establishment uses. Finally, a number of low

level residue ndings were reported for residues for which no tolerance was established in sh

or catsh. Instead, EPA requires registrants to provide data on sh to assess environmental

impact. For these reasons, catsh residue results, along with results from groundwater and

drinking water, are excluded when providing overall residue counts.

Action Levels (ALs) are shown in this appendix, where applicable, and denote ALs

established by FDA. Under the Food Quality Protection Act, responsibility for establishing

tolerances in lieu of ALs has been transferred to EPA. In the interim, ALs are used.

EPA tolerances as published in 40 CFR Part 180 are expressed in parts per million

(ppm). Because catsh residues are expressed in parts per billion (ppb), EPA tolerances

have been multiplied by a factor of 1,000 as a basis for comparison using a single scale.

There is no intention to imply any more exactness in the value than that originally expressed

by EPA.

NOTES

* = EPA tolerances have been multiplied by a factor of 1,000 as a basis for comparison using a single scale.

There is no intention to imply any more exactness in the value than that originally expressed by EPA.

^ = Only one distinct detected concentration or LOD value was reported for the pair.

NA = Findings in catfish are covered by tolerances established for fish, by tolerances set for pesticide uses in food

handling establishments, and by action levels set for persistent chemicals commonly found in the enviroment.

In addition, there are other findings that may arise from a number of attributable sources including runoff from

agricultural uses to water sources or ponds. For the latter group, where no specific tolerance has been

established, “NA” has been entered as the tolerance value.

AL = Numbers shown are Action Levels established by FDA for some pesticides. Under FQPA, responsibility

for establishing tolerances in lieu of action levels has been transferred to EPA. In the interim, action levels

are used.

Pesticide Types:

A = Acaricide

F = Fungicide, FM = Fungicide Metabolite

H = Herbicide

I = Insecticide, IM = Insecticide Metabolite

P = Plant Growth Regulator

R = Insect Growth Regulator

Many of the listed tolerances are the sum of a parent compound and metabolite(s)/isomer(s). The reader is advised

to refer to EPA for the complete listing of compounds in tolerance expressions. The cited tolerances apply to 2008

and not to the current year. There may be instances where a tolerance was recently set or revoked that would have

an effect on whether a residue is violative or not.

Appendix F

Distribution of Residues by Pesticide

in Corn Grain

Appendix F shows residue detections for all compounds tested in corn grain, including

range of values detected, range of Limits of Detection (LODs), and U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) tolerance references for each pair. The EPA tolerances cited in

this summary and Appendices apply to 2008 and not to the current year. There may be

instances where tolerances may have been recently set or revoked that would have an effect

on whether a residue is violative or not.

The Pesticide Data Program (PDP) analyzed 650 corn grain samples for the 2007 crop

year (harvested between September 2007 and April 2008 and collected between September

2007 and June 2008). PDP detected 15 different pesticide residues (including metabolites)

in the corn grain samples.

Action Levels (ALs) are shown in this appendix, where applicable, and denote AL

values established by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Under the Food Quality

Protection Act, responsibility for establishing tolerances in lieu of ALs has been transferred to

EPA. In the interim, ALs are used.

PDP reports tolerance violations to FDA as part of an interagency Memorandum of

Understanding between the U.S. Department of Agriculture and FDA. Residues reported to

FDA are shown in the “Pesticide” column to the right of the pesticide name and are annotated

as “X” (if the residue exceeded the established tolerance) or “V” [if the residue did not have a

tolerance listed in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 180]. In both cases, these

annotations are followed by a number indicating the number of samples reported to FDA.

Appendix I

Distribution of Residues by Pesticide

in Drinking Water

AppendixIshowsresiduedetectionsforallcompoundstestedindrinkingwater,including

range of values detected and range of Limits of Detection (LODs). The U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) National Primary Drinking Water Regulation (NPDWR) Maximum

Contaminant Levels (MCLs) for drinking water, Health Advisory (HA) values for drinking water,

and Freshwater Aquatic Organism (FAOs) Criteria for ambient water are also shown. Units

for LODs, MCLs, HAs, and FAOs are shown in parts per trillion (ppt).

In 2008, the Pesticide Data Program (PDP) analyzed 619 drinking water samples,

including 310 nished drinking water samples and 309 untreated (raw intake) drinking water

samples. PDP detected 59 different pesticide residues in nished drinking water and 63

residues in the untreated intake water; most of the detections were herbicides. None of the

nished drinking water samples exceeded EPA MCLs or HAs for any pesticide detected. In

fact, the majority of pesticides included in the PDP screens were not detected.

The MCLs are legally enforceable standards that apply to public water systems. EPA’s

regulations for MCLs can be referenced at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/mcl.html. The HAs

are an estimate of acceptable drinking water levels for a chemical substance based on health

effects information. The values published are for lifetime HA, which is the concentration of

a chemical in drinking water that is not expected to cause any adverse non-carcinogenic

effects for a lifetime of exposure. The HA values can be referenced at http://www.epa.gov/

waterscience/criteria/drinking. FAO criteria are set by EPA and are the concentration of

a chemical in water at or below which aquatic life are protected from acute and chronic

adverse effects of the chemical. The FAO values can be referenced at http://www.epa.gov/

waterscience/criteria/wqctable/index.html. Health Advisories and FAO criteria are not legally

enforceable Federal standards, but serve as technical guidance to assist Federal, State, and

local ofcials.

EPA MCL, HA, and FAO values are expressed in parts per million (ppm). Because

drinking water residues are expressed in parts per trillion (ppt), EPA MCL, HA, and FAO

values have been multiplied by a factor of 1,000,000 as a basis for comparison using a single

scale. There is no intention to imply any more exactness in the value than that originally

expressed by EPA.

Appendix J

Sample Origin by State or Country

(Determined by Grower, Packer, or Distributor)

Appendix J gives the number of fruit and vegetable, almond, catsh, honey, and rice

samples per State or country of origin and the number of samples of unknown origin. Where

available, the origin of fresh commodities is taken from the grower or packer information. For

processed commodities, origin is determined primarily by packer or distributor.

As shown in Appendix J, fruit and vegetable, almond, catsh, honey, and rice samples

originated from 43 States, 1 U.S. territory, and 22 foreign countries. There were 524 domestic

and 5 imported samples from unknown States and countries, respectively. There were an

additional 133 samples from unknown origins. Corn grain samples were all of domestic origin.

Overall, for all samples except corn grain, groundwater, and drinking water, 76.4 percent were

from U.S. sources, 19.8 percent were imports, 2.7 percent were of mixed national origin, and

1.1 percent were of unknown origin.

Appendix K

Import vs. Domestic Pesticide Residue Comparisons

The Pesticide Data Program (PDP) is designed to provide a comprehensive statistical

picture of pesticide residues in the U.S. food supply, representing all sources, including

imports. Most commodities consumed are generally produced in the United States with import

components that vary by commodity. However, several commodities tested over the past

several years were cyclical; that is, part of the year the commodity was produced domestically

and part of the year it was imported.

Appendix K compares residue data reported for samples originating in the United

States with those of the same commodity from major exporting countries. Residue data for

domestic blueberries are compared with data for samples originating in Argentina and Chile

for 2007-2008 combined. Residue data for peaches from the United States are compared

with data for samples originating in Chile for 2007-2008 combined. Residue data for tomatoes

from the United States are compared with data for samples originating in Mexico for 2007-

2008 combined. Only residues detected in more than 10 percent of all samples are included

in each comparison. All pesticides detected were registered in the United States. However,

the proles of residue ndings were markedly different in the United States samples versus

samples from these exporting countries. The differences in residue detections between

countries were likely due to the pesticides used in response to pest pressures based on

differing environmental, climatic, and growing conditions.

National Estimates for

Concentration Percentiles vs. Tolerance

(Pairs With Residue Detections in at Least 5 Percent of Samples)

Appendix L shows 178 pesticide/commodity pairs (including metabolites, isomers,

and degradates) with detections in at least 5 percent of the samples tested. Concentrations

detectedarearrangedinpercentiles. The90thpercentileiscomparedtotheU.S.Environmental

Protection Agency tolerance established for each pesticide/commodity pair.

The meaning of a percentile can be most easily explained through an example. For

the strawberries/boscalid pair, the 50th percentile, or median, is estimated to be 0.11 parts

per million (ppm). This means that the Pesticide Data Program (PDP) estimates that at least

50 percent of strawberries available to U.S. consumers had boscalid residues of 0.11 ppm

or less, while at least 50 percent had residues of 0.11 ppm or more. Similarly, the 75th

percentile (or the upper quartile) for this pair is estimated to be 0.18 ppm, which means that

at least 75 percent of strawberries had boscalid residues of 0.18 ppm or less, while at least

25 percent had residues of 0.18 ppm or more. Finally, the 90th percentile is estimated to be

0.50 ppm, meaning that at least 90 percent of all strawberries had boscalid residues of 0.50

ppm or less, while at least 10 percent had residues of 0.50 ppm or more.

Percent detections and percentiles for all commodities were weighted based on

marketing data.

NOTES

1

Includes some pairs with detections in more than 5 percent of the samples, but with estimated detections in less than

5 percent of the population. Excludes pairs with less than 100 sample observations or without observations in all

participating States.

2

The mean is estimated with a range of values. The lower bound is calculated with non-detections valued at zero.

The upper bound is calculated using the LOD.

* The percentile value is estimated to be below the Limit of Detection (LOD)

(W) Weighted for utilization. The Percent of Samples with Detections was recalculated to reflect national estimates.

NT No tolerance established.

Weighting the sample for national estimates:

National estimates were computed from the samples collected in 10 participating States by benchmarking the data to national

numbers. For example, if 35 percent of a commodity consumed domestically in 2008 was known to be in category A, while

65 percent was in category B, the commodity sample would be divided into the two categories. If PA of the commodity sample

in category A had a detectable residue of a pesticide while PB of the sample in category B had a detectable residue of that same

pesticide, then the national estimate of detectable residues for the pesticide/commodity pair was .35 x PA + .65 x PB.

Appendix L. Page 5 of 6
For 2008, estimates were benchmarked to place-of-origin data, usually imported versus domestically grown product. Analysis

showed that place-of-origin is often strongly correlated with pesticide residues. The USDA Economic Research Service (ERS) supplied

2008 import fractions for most domestically consumed commodities. A single fraction was provided covering both fresh

nectarines and peaches. Similarly, a single import fraction was deduced for all greens.

Some commodities were further benchmarked by State of origin using USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) data, with

several States often grouped together (e.g., Florida and Georgia or all States other than California). Similarly, some commodities

were further benchmarked by country of origin using USDA Foreign Agriculture Service (FAS) data.

Most domestic data were for 2008, but 2002 Census-of-Agriculture data were used for greens because NASS does not collect

annual greens data. Summer squash was benchmarked to all-squash numbers (both winter and summer varieties). This is the

only level of aggregation at which NASS and ERS collect and publish data.

Slightly over 5 percent of domestic samples and 0.2 percent of imported samples had no State/country of origin. To use these

records, samples marked as domestic (or imported) but without a specific originating State (or country) were prorated across

the benchmarking States (or countries) using averages within the collection State and season. For example, if 40 percent of the

winter sample of a commodity collected in Texas had California listed as the State of origin and 60 percent came from other

States, then a winter sample of that commodity collected in Texas and marked as domestic, but without a State of origin, would be

treated as 40 percent from California and 60 percent from other States. A similar process was used for samples with unknown

import/domestic status (1.1 percent of the samples).

Appendix L. Page 6 of 6
Appendix M

Number of Pesticides Detected per Sample

Appendix M shows the percentage of samples versus the number of pesticides detected

per sample, excluding catsh, groundwater, and drinking water samples. The graph and data

on page 1 show the overall number of samples and percentages (of total number of samples

analyzed) for each detection group across all commodities. The table on page 2 shows the

number of pesticides detected by individual commodity. For the 11,960 samples analyzed,

29.7 percent of the samples had no detectable pesticides, 24.1 percent had 1 pesticide, and

46.2 percent of the samples had more than 1 pesticide.

This appendix reports the number of distinct pesticides rather than residues, as was

reported in summaries prior to 2003. A parent compound and its metabolites are reported as

a single pesticide. For example, a single application of the pesticide endosulfan may result

in residues of the parent compound endosulfan I, its endosulfan II isomer, and its endosulfan

sulfate metabolite. Thus, three residue detections could result from the use of a single pesticide.

In the 2002 and previous summaries, the corresponding appendix would have counted these

results as three distinct residues, while this appendix counts the ndings as just one distinct

pesticide.

NOTES

1

Parent compounds and their metabolites are combined to report the number of "pesticides" rather than the number of "residues,"

as was reported in summaries prior to 2003. For example, a sample with positive detections for Endosulfan I, II, and sulfate

would have been counted as three residues detected in the 2002 Appendix L. That same sample would be counted as just

one pesticide detected in this appendix.

Fruit and Vegetable Samples Reported to the

U.S. Food and Drug Administration as

Exceeding the Tolerance

or Without Established Tolerance

(per Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 180)

Appendix N shows residues reported to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

as exceeding the tolerance or residues for which no established tolerance was listed under

the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Part 180. In 2008, a total of 493 samples with 541

residues were reported to the FDA as Presumptive Tolerance Violations.

Excluding catsh, groundwater, and nished and untreated drinking water, residues exceeding

the tolerance were detected in 60 samples including 3 blueberry samples, 2 celery samples,

1 corn grain sample, 2 green bean samples, 11 samples of collard greens, 10 kale samples,

7 potato samples, 16 spinach samples, 2 samples of strawberries, 5 samples of summer

squash, and 1 tomato sample. Of those 60 samples, 9 were reported as imported produce

and 1 was of unknown origin.

58 samples contained one residue exceeding the established tolerance.

2 samples contained two residues exceeding the established tolerances.

In addition, 442 samples were found to have residues for which no tolerance was established,

including 397 fruit and vegetable samples, 2 samples of corn grain, and 43 honey samples.

413 samples contained 1 residue for which no tolerance was established.

23 samples contained 2 residues for which no tolerance was established.

4 samples contained 3 residues for which no tolerance was established.

2 samples contained 4 residues for which no tolerance was established.

Nine of the 442 samples also contained 1 residue each that exceeded an established

tolerance.

The columns under the Sample Origin heading provide the number of samples that

were of domestic, import, or unknown origin for each pesticide/commodity pair listed.

Appendix N also notes if metabolites (or isomers) were detected as part of the same sample.

In instances where both parent and metabolite (or isomer) were detected, the Pesticide Data

Program accounted for both as part of the same tolerance expression.

o-Phenylphenol is a fungicide with a number of crop tolerances. It is also an ingredient in many cleaning products and is

used in the paper manufacturing process. Residues of o-Phenylphenol may be the result of direct use, transfer across

commodities, or may originate from various paper and cleaning products.

4

3-Hydroxycarbofuran metabolite was detected within the same sample as Carbofuran.

5 Permethrin cis and trans isomers were detected within the same samples.

6 Propiconazole I and II isomers were detected within the same samples.

7 Omethoate metabolite was detected within the same sample as Dimethoate.

Note:

For those pesticide/commodity pairs where the minimum detected value is less than the limit of quantitation (three times

the limit of detection), the reported values are estimates. In a few cases, this may apply to the maximum detected value.
