      Risk Assessment Branch 1 (RAB1)
            Health Effects Division (HED) (7509P)

THROUGH:	George F. Kramer, Ph.D., Branch Senior Chemist
	Dana M. Vogel, Branch Chief 
            RAB1/HED (7509P)

This memorandum pertains ONLY to the commodity dill, oil associated with Petition No. 2E8052 and serves to update the following three HED documents:  HED risk assessment (D403975), residue chemistry chapter (D408525), and dietary exposure assessment (D408528).  All conclusions in these three documents remain adequate, and unchanged, for this petition, with the exception of adding a tolerance for residues of prometryn in/on dill, oil.

In conjunction with petition 2E8052, the Interregional Research Project No. 4 (IR-4) proposed the establishment of permanent tolerances for residues of prometryn per se in/on dill, oil at 1.3 ppm.  HED originally stated that a tolerance was not necessary for this commodity.  However, upon further consideration by HED Management and Barbara Madden of RD, HED is now recommending for the tolerance proposed by IR-4:

            Dill, oil	1.3 ppm
