Attached
are
the
revised
Product

Chapters
for
the
lindane
RED.
The
chapters
were
assembled
by
Dynamac

assessment
has
undergone
secondary
review
in
the
branch
and
has
been
revised
to
reflect
branch
policies.
This
memorandum
serves
to
update
the
Product

EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY:

Product
Chemistry

Pertinent
product
chemistry
data
remain
outstanding
for
the
Inquinosa
99.5%
T/
TGAI
concerning
product
identity,
starting
materials
and
production
process,
preliminary
analysis,
certified
limits,
oxidation/
reduction,
explodability,
storage
stability,
corrosion
characteristics,
and
UV/

(OPPTS
830.1550,

1620,
1700,
1750,
6314,
6316,
6317,
6320,
and
7050).
Technical
products
registered
to
Kanoria
Chemicals
&
Industries
were
suspended
effective
12/
5/
00
for
failure
to
comply
with
a
cost
sharing
agreement
with
Inquinosa.
Therefore,
all
technical
products
registered
which
are
repackages
of
the
Kanoria
products
would
be
required
to
change
suppliers.
The
Prentiss,
Drexel,
and
Amvac
99.5%
Ts
are
repackaged
from
EPA­
registered
products,
and
all
data
requirements
will
be
satisfied
by
data
for
the
technical
source
products.
Provided
that
the
registrants
submit
the
data
required
in
the
attached
data
summary
tables
for
the
lindane
T/
TGAIs,
and
either
certify
that
the
suppliers
of
beginning
materials
and
the
manufacturing
processes
have
not
changed
since
the
last
comprehensive
product
chemistry
reviews
or
submit
complete
updated
product
chemistry
data
packages,
the
Branch
has
no
objections
to
the
reregistration
of
lindane
with
respect
to
product
chemistry
data
requirements.

Residue
Chemistry

The
Agency
will
not
require
a
new
confined
rotational
crop
study
provided
the
registrants
propose
a
30­
day
plantback
interval
for
leafy
vegetables
and
a
12­
month
plantback
interval
for
all
other
unregistered
crops
on
all
of
their
end­
use
product
labels
for
lindane.
The
registrants
have
informed
the
Agency
they
will
propose
the
specified
plantback
intervals.


A
new
nature
of
the
residue
study
is
required
for
application
of
lindane
as
a
seed
treatment
to
a
cereal
grain.


If
the
HED
Metabolism
Assessment
Review
Committee
determines
the
residues
of
concern
to
include
metabolites
in
addition
to
lindane,
then
additional
crop
field
trial
data,
magnitude
of
the
residue
in
poultry
and
cattle,
and
processing
studies
are
required.
In
addition,
an
adequate
residue
analytical
method
and
storage
stability
data
will
be
required.

Dietary
Exposure/
Risk
Assessment

Anticipated
residues
(DP
Barcode
D279260,
T.
Morton,
12/
4/
01)
will
be
provided
for
all
commodities
and
should
be
used
when
calculating
the
dietary
risk
associated
with
the
RED.
Although
the
database
for
lindane
is
substantially
complete,
additional
data
are
needed
to
eliminate
the
uncertainties
associated
with
the
exposure/
risk
assessment.
The
anticipated
residue
values
are
the
best
estimates
HED
can
provide
using
the
residue
data
available
at
the
time
of
the
RED.
These
values
have
an
inherent
uncertainty
associated
with
variations
in
analytical
methods,
geographical
representation
of
field
trials,
seasonal
variation
of
residue
levels,
use
of
TRR
from
metabolism
studies,
etc.

REGULATORY
BACKGROUND
The
Lindane
Reregistration
Standard
and
the
Addendum
to
the
Lindane
Reregistration
Standard
were
issued
6/
7/
85
and
7/
16/
85,
respectively,
and
required
additional
product
chemistry
data
concerning
lindane.
The
Lindane
Guidance
Document
dated
9/
85
reiterated
the
data
gaps
outlined
under
the
Addendum
to
the
Reregistration
Standard.
Data
submitted
in
response
to
the
Guidance
Document
for
the
lindane
T/
TGAIs
were
evaluated
in
the
Lindane
Reregistration
Standard
Update
dated
1/
31/
91
with
regard
to
adequacy
in
fulfilling
product
chemistry
requirements.
The
Centre
International

(CIEL)
members
(Rhone­
Poulenc,
Inc.,
EM
Industries,
Inc.
(representing
Celamerck
GmbH
and
Company),
and
Inquinosa)
have
submitted

product).
Prentiss
and
Amvac
previously
entered
into
data
sharing
agreements
with
CIEL
in
accordance
with
the
provisions
of
FIFRA
§3(
C)(
2)(
B)(
ii).
Technical

INTRODUCTION
Lindane
(gamma
isomer
of
benzene
hexachloride,
gamma
isomer
of
hexachlorocyclohexane)
is
a
broad
spectrum
organochlorine
insecticide/
acaricide
registered
for
control
of
insects
and
other
invertebrates
on
a
wide
variety
of
field
crops
and
vegetable
crops
(seed
treatment
only).
According
to
a
REFS
search,
conducted
on
5/
29/
01,
there
are
approximately
34
federally
registered
end­
use
products
(EPs)
containing
lindane
as
the
active
ingredient
and
three
Section
24C
registrations.
Lindane
end­
use
products
are
formulated
as
dust
(D),
wettable
powder
(WP),
emulsifiable
concentrate
(EC),
flowable
concentrate
(FlC),
and
ready­
to­
use
(RTU)
solution.

The
reregistration
of
lindane
is
being
supported
by
Centre
International
d'Etudes
du
Lindane
(CIEL)
and
its
member
company

S.
registrations,
Inquinosa,
S.
A.
Currently,
Inquinosa
does
not
have
any
registered
lindane
end­
use
products.
In
1993,
CIEL
offered
to
voluntarily
cancel
all
crop
uses
of
lindane
except
seed
treatment
and
certain
non­
food
uses.
The
Agency
considers
lindane
seed
treatment
as
a
food
use
requiring
tolerances
based
on
existing
data
from
radiolabeled
studies
indicating
uptake
of
residues
from
the
treated
seeds
into
the
aerial
portion
of
the
growing
crop.

REGULATORY
BACKGROUND
Lindane
is
a
List
A
reregistration
pesticide.
A
Reregistration
Standard
for
Lindane
was
issued
9/
85.
The
Residue
Chemistry
Chapter
to
the
Reregistration
Standard
was
issued
on
6/
7/
85,
an
addendum
on
9/
5/
85,
and
an
Update
on
1/
31/
91.
The
Reregistration
Standard
along
with
its
Science
Chapters
summarized
the
available
data
for
each
residue
chemistry
guideline
and
specified
what
additional
data
are
required
for
reregistration
purposes.
Data
Call­
In
(DCI)

issued
by
the

on

95,
10/
13/

and
3/

The
information
contained
in
this
document
outlines
the
current
Residue
Chemistry
Science
Assessments
with
respect
to
supporting
seed
treatment
uses
of
lindane,
as
well
as
the
reregistration
of
the
pesticide.
17
In
1983,
EPA
concluded
a
major
Special
Review
effort
of
lindane
based
on
carcinogenicity,
fetotoxicity/
teratogenicity,
reproductive
effects,
and
acute
effects
on
aquatic
organisms.
This
effort
resulted
in
the
cancellation
of
indoor
uses
of
smoke
fumigation
devices
and
greatly
limited
the
use
of
pet
dips
on
dogs.
In
addition,
there
were
uses
that
were
allowed
to
continue
only
if
certain
imposed
restrictions
were
implemented.
The
restrictions
were
based
on
the
degree
of
associated
hazards,
and
included
changes
in
warning
labels,
the
wearing
of
protective
clothing,
and
restrictions
to
limit
uses
to
certified
pest
control
operators.

In
1995,
EPA
announced
(FR
Vol.
60,
No.
143,
38329­
38331,
7/
26/
95)
its
decision
not
to
initiate
a
Special
Review
of
lindane
based
on
worker
health
concerns
arising
from
studies
showing
irreversible
renal
effects
in
the
rat.
The
Agency
has
determined
that
these
effects
occur
only
in
the
kidneys
of
male
rat
and
are
not
relevant
for
human
risk
assessment.

Tolerances
are
currently
established
under
40
CFR
§180.133
for
residues
of
lindane
per
se
in/
on
various
raw
agricultural
commodities
at
0.01
ppm
(pecans)
to
3
ppm
(cucumbers,
lettuce,
melons,
mushrooms,
pumpkins,
squash,
summer
squash,
and
tomatoes).
Lindane
tolerances
are
also
established
at
4
ppm
in
the
fat
of
meat
from
hogs
and
at
7
ppm
in
the
fat
of
meat
from
cattle,
goats,
horses,
and
sheep.
No
tolerances
have
been
established
for
processed
food/
feed
commodities.
Adequate
methods
are
available
for
the
enforcement
of
tolerances
for
residues
of
lindane
per
se
in/
on
plant
and
animal
commodities.

The
basic
registrants,
CIEL
and
its

company
(Inquinosa)
presently
do
not
have
any

However,
it
is
noted
that
lindane
remains
registered
by
other

of
food/
feed
crops
such
as
fruit
crops,

Nature
of
the
Residue
­
Plants
The
qualitative
nature
of
lindane
residues
in
plants
reflecting
seed
treatment
is
inadequately
understood.
For
the
purpose
of
reregistration,
the
basic
registrants
are
required
to
conduct
a
new
plant
metabolism
study
on
lindane.
This
study
should
be
conducted
on
a
representative
cereal
grain,
as
the
registrants
have
indicated
that
the
only
food
uses
they
are
supporting
are
for
seed
treatment
of
these
crops.
The
new
studies
should
be
conducted
at
an
application
rate
which
will
insure
that
sufficient
14
C­
residues
are
available
for
analysis.
Crop
samples
should
be
harvested
at
the
appropriate
stage.
In
addition,
care
should
be
taken
to
insure
that
radioactivity
is
not
lost
during
analysis.
Identification
of
14
C­
residues
should
also
be
confirmed
using
more
than
one
method,
or
by
GC/
MS.

The
results
of
the
requested
plant
metabolism
study
will
be
considered
by
HED's
MARC
for
determination
of
terminal
residues
of
concern
in
cereal
grains.
Although
the
nature
of
the
residue
in
plants
remains
inadequately
understood
at
this
time,
HED
has
no
objection
to
proceeding
with
the
Lindane
RED
and
with
risk
assessments,
given
that
acceptable
enforcement
and
datacollection
methods
are
available
for
determining
residues
of
lindane
per
se
in/
on
plants
and
the
proposed
food/
feed
uses
of
lindane
are
limited
to
seed
treatment.
The
HED
MARC
(T.
Morton,
8/
30/
00,
D267069)
concluded
that
the
total
radioactive
residues
should
be
used
for
risk
assessment
purposes
until
adequate
plant
metabolism
studies
are
submitted.

Plant
metabolism
studies
reflecting

on
apples
(MRID

cucumbers
(MRID

(MRID

were
previously
submitted
by
the
basic
registrants
in
response
to
the
requirements
of
the
9/
85
Lindane
Reregistration
Guidance
Document.
These
studies
were
deemed
unacceptable
and
nonupgradable
because
of
several
deficiencies
including
inadequate
characterization
and
identification
of
14
C­

Nature
of
the
Residue
­
Animals
The
qualitative
nature
of
the
residue
in
ruminants
is
adequately
understood.
The
basic
registrants
had
submitted
a
ruminant
metabolism
study
(MRID
44867104)
which
was
deemed
inadequate
but
upgradable.
To
upgrade
the
study,
the
registrant
was
required
to
identify
the
metabolite
labeled
LiV
in
goat
liver's
aqueous
phase
which
accounted
for
25.2
%
of
the
total
radioactivity
(0.57
ppm).
In
addition,
storage
stability
data
was
required
showing
individual
tissue
sampling
dates
and
final
analysis
dates.
The
registrant
has
recently
submitted
the
required
data
(MRID
45224101,
45224102,
and
45277201)
thus,
adequately
addressing
this
deficiency.
A
brief
summary
of
the
recently
reviewed
goat
metabolism
study
follows.
Lactating
goats
were
orally
administered
with
[
14
C]
lindane
capsules
immediately
after
morning
milking
once
per
day
for
seven
19
days
at
a
level
equivalent
to
13
ppm.
Milk
was
collected
twice
daily
and
within
24
hours
of
the
last
dose,
the
animals
were
sacrificed.
The
total
radioactive
residues
(TRR;
expressed
as
lindane
equivalents)
in
collected
samples
were
3.
46
ppm
in
fat,
2.25
ppm
in
liver,
0.
48
ppm
in
kidney,
0.
20
ppm
in
muscle,
and
0.
20
ppm
in
milk.
The
parent,
lindane
was
the
major
residue
identified
in
all
goat
matrices
and
accounted
for
approximately
56%
of
the
TRR
in
milk
fat,
85%
of
the
TRR
in
fat,
81%
of
the
TRR
in
muscle,
36%
of
the
TRR
in
kidney,
and
16%
of
the
TRR
in
liver.
Other
metabolites
present
were:
gamma­
pentachlorocyclohexene
(PCCH);
1,2,4­
trichlorobenzene;
gamma­
tetrachlorocyclohexene
(TCCH);
1,2­
dichlorobenzene,
a
glutathione
conjugate
of
a
dichlorophenol,
and
a
conjugate
of
a
monochlorophenol.

The
qualitative
nature
of
the
residue
in
poultry
is
adequately
understood.
A
poultry
metabolism
study
(MRIDs
40271301
and
44405404),
submitted
by
the
registrants
in
response
to
the
9/
85
Lindane
Reregistration
Guidance
Document,
has
recently
been
upgraded
to
acceptable
status.
A
brief
summary
of
the
poultry
metabolism
study
follows.
Laying
hens
were
dosed
with
[
14
C]
lindane
at
levels
equivalent
to
1.2
ppm
or
120
ppm
in
the
diet
for
four
consecutive
days.
Radioactive
residues
accumulated
to
the
greatest
extent
in
fatty
tissues.
In
high
dose
hens,
TRR
levels
were
highest
in
fat
(96.98
ppm)
and
lowest
in
breast
muscle
(1.44
ppm).
TRR
levels
were
proportionally
less
in
tissues
of
low­
dose
hens
(fat,
1.
26
ppm;
breast
muscle
0.
02
ppm).
In
eggs
of
high­
dose
hens,
14
C­
residues
peaked
on
Day
4
at
10.83
ppm
in
yolks
and
0.21
ppm
in
whites.
Lindane
was
the
major
residue
component
identified
and
accounted
for
approximately
95%
of
the
TRR
in
egg
yolks,
71­
86%
of
the
TRR
in
muscle,
skin,
and
fat,
and
52%
of
the
TRR
in
liver.
Other
metabolites
that
were
identified
included:
1,2,4­
trichlorobenzene;
1,3,5­
trichlorobenzene
and
dichlorobenzene(
s);
tetrachlorobenzene
(either
1,2,4,5­
or
1,2,3,4­);
PCCH;
1,
2,
3,
4tetrachlorobenzene
tetrachlorocyclohexene;
1,2,3,4,5­
pentachlorobenzene;
and
hexachlorocyclohexene.

The
results
of
the
ruminant
and
poultry
metabolism
studies
will
be
presented
to
HED's
MARC
for
determination
of
terminal
residue
of
concern
in
eggs,
milk,
and
animal
tissues
when
an
acceptable
plant
metabolism
study
is
submitted.
If
the
Committee
determines
that
lindane
per
se
is
the
only
residue
of
concern
requiring
regulation,
then
the
existing
storage
stability
data
for
poultry
commodities,
the
analytical
method
used
for
data
collection,
and
the
poultry
feeding
study
will
be
upgraded
to
acceptable
status.

The
HED
MARC
(T.
Morton,
8/
30/
00,
D267069)
concluded
that
the
total
radioactive
residues
should
be
used
for
risk
assessment
purposes
until
an
adequate
plant
metabolism
study
is
submitted.

Because
the

uses
have
not
been
adequately

the
adequacy
of
the

cannot
be
determined.
The

are
reminded
that
radiovalidation
of

therefore,
representative

Adequate
methods
are
available
for
determination
of
residues
of
lindane
per

in/
on
plant

Methods
I
and

for

of
1,
2,
3,
4,
5,
6­
hexachlorocyclohexane
in/
on

Method
I
is
a
multiresidue
method
(see
"GLN
860.1360:
Multiresidue
Methods"
section)
for
chlorinated
compounds.
Method
II
is
based
upon
the
official
final
AOAC
method
(1990,
15th
edition
of
AOAC)
and
is
suitable
for
determining
residues
of
lindane
in/
on
AOAC
Group
I
nonfatty
foods
(vegetables
and
fruits),
dairy
products,
fish,
and

The

of
Method

Adequate
data­
collection
methods
have
been
submitted
for
detection
of
lindane
per
se
in/
on
cucumbers
and
spinach.
The
analytical
procedures
for
detecting
lindane
in
cucumbers
and
spinach
are
essentially
the
same.
Residues
of
lindane
are
extracted
with
acetonitrile,
partitioned
with
hexane:
acetonitrile,
cleaned
up
using
Florisil
column
chromatography,
and
analyzed
by
gas
chromatography
with
electron
capture
detection
(ECD);
the
reported
detection
limit
was
0.01
ppm.
Based
on
acceptable
method
validation
recoveries,
the
Agency
has
deemed
the
GC/
ECD
method
to
be
adequate
for
determining
residues
of
lindane
per
se
in
nonfatty
crops.

A
GC/
MS
method
(SOP#
Meth­
109)
entitled
"Determination
of
Lindane
in
Wheat
and
Canola
Matrices"
was
utilized
as
the
data­
collection
method
in
a
recently
submitted
wheat
field
study.
Briefly,
residues
in/
on
wheat
forage,
hay,
grain,
and
straw
samples
were
extracted
with
acetonitrile
and
water.
The
water
was
salted
out,
and
an
aliquot
of
the
remaining
acetonitrile
extract
was
purified
by
means
of
a
hexane
solvent
partition,
gel
permeation
chromatography,
dichloromethane/
salt
water
solvent
partition,
and
a
carbon
black
solid
phase
extraction
cartridge
cleanup.
Detection
and
quantitation
were
conducted
using
a
gas
chromatograph
equipped
with
a
mass
selective
detector
(GC/
MS).
The
LOQ
was
0.
005
ppm.

A
data­
collection
method,
based
on
the
AOAC
method,
was
also
submitted
for
detection
of
lindane
per
se
in
eggs,
milk,
and
animal
tissues.
The
Agency
previously
required
an
EPA
method
validation
for
the
submitted
method
if
lindane
tolerances
for
lean
animal
tissues
were
to
be
established
because
the
AOAC
method
did
not
describe
techniques
which
the
registrant's
method
contained
(e.
g.,
gel
permeation
chromatography
and
rotary
evaporation).
The
FDA
method
now
utilizes
these
techniques;
therefore,
the
requirement
for
a
petition
method
validation
was
conditionally
waived
provided
HED's
MARC
determines
that
lindane
per
se
is
the
only
residue
of
concern
in
animal
commodities.

Assuming
that

and
provided

the

support
the

are
stable
in
wheat
grain,
wheat
hay,
and
wheat
straw
for
up
to
approximately
18
months
when
stored

Lindane
residues
in
canola
seed
were
stable
for
up
to
6.
5
months
when
stored
under
frozen
conditions
(no
temperature
given).
Lindane
residues
were
stable
for
up
to
2
months
in
canola
oil
and
1.
5
months
in
canola

is
required
to
submit
additional

specifying
the

of
the
canola

Assuming
that
lindane

is
the
terminal
residue
of
concern,
these
data
support
the
storage
conditions
and

A

formed
the
basis
for
food­
use
classification
of
lindane
when
the
pesticide
is
applied
as
a
seed
treatment.
In
this
study,
[
14
C]
lindane
was
applied
as
a
seed
treatment
to
corn
(field
and
sweet),
mustard,
radish,
spinach,
sugar
beet,
and
wheat
at
approximately
1x
the
label
rate.
The
treated
seeds
were
then
planted
outdoors
in
55
gallon
drum
halves
and
allowed
to
grow
under
simulated
normal
agricultural
practices.
Samples
of
immature
and
mature
crop
commodities
were
analyzed
for
total
14
C,
and
some
fractions
were
extracted
with
hexane
and
analyzed
by
a
GC
method
for
total
lindane.
The
above
study
failed
to
adequately
identify
radioactive
residues
in/
on
all
commodities
grown
from
treated
seed.
Nonetheless,
with
the
possible
exception
of
wheat
grain
and
foliage,
residues
were
characterized
to
be
not
associated
with
biological
molecules
(e.
g.,
amino
acid,
sugar,
etc.)
that
have
incorporated
the
radiolabel.
The
total
residues
found,
the
hexane­
extractable
residues,
and
the
residues
attributable
to
lindane
are
summarized
in
the
table
below.
Should
the
HED
MARC
determine
that
lindane
metabolites
other
than
the
parent
should
be
regulated,
the
Agency
will
require
the
registrants
to
submit
additional
crop

were
nondetectable
(<
0.

Ruminant
Feeding
Study
Thirteen
lactating
Holstein
cows
were
orally
administered
gelatin
capsules
containing
lindane
daily
for
28
consecutive
days.
The
cows
were
assigned
to
four
groups
(four
cows
per
dose
group
plus
one
control).
Three
of
the
four
cows
in
each
dosing
level
were
also
dermally
treated
via
a
dip
tank
on
day
21
and
28.
Lindane
residues
in
Table
2
are
from
the
single
cow
which
did
not
receive
the
dip
treatment.
Cows
were
housed
in
a
common
area.
The
administered
dose
levels
were
20
ppm,
60
ppm,
and
200
ppm
which
are
equivalent
to
143x,
426x,
and
1,418x
the
maximum
lindane
dietary
burden
of
0.
141
ppm
for
dairy
cattle
(assuming
lindane
is
the
sole
residue
of
concern).
Using
the
total
radioactive
residues
for
feed
items
as
required
by
the
HED
MARC,
the
feeding
levels
are
equivalent
to
3x,
10x,
and
34x
the
maximum
lindane
dietary
burden
for
dairy
cattle
(equivalent
to
7x,
20x,
and
67x
the
maximum
lindane
dietary
burden
for
beef
cattle).
The
calculation
of
expected
dietary
intake
for
beef
and
dairy
cattle,
using
feed
items
derived
from
proposed
seed
treatment
uses,
is
presented
in
Table

The
daily
dose
was
given
to
each
cow
after

and
stored
at

in
Rotational
Crops
The
basic
registrants
have
submitted
a
confined
rotational
crop
study
which
was
deemed
unacceptable
and
not
upgradable
because
of
inadequate
characterization
and
identification
of
residues
due
to
significant
losses
of
organosoluble
residues
during
analysis.
Although
the
study
is
inadequate
and
the
application
rate
used
(0.75
lb
ai/
A)
greatly
exceeds
the
level
of
soil
residues
that
are
likely
to
result
from
seed­
treatment
uses,
the
data
indicate
that
residues
of
lindane
persist
in
the
soil
and
can
be
taken
up
by
rotational
crops
at
intervals
up
to
one
year.

For
the
purpose
of
reregistration,
the
Agency
will
not
require
a
new
confined
rotational
crop
study
provided
the
registrants
propose
a
30­
day
plantback
interval
for
leafy
vegetables
and
a
12­
month
plantback
interval
for
all
other
unregistered
crops
on
all
of
their
end­
use
product
labels
for
lindane.
If
this
recommendation
is
not
acceptable
to
the
registrants,
then
limited
rotational
field
trial
data
are
required.
The
limited
field
trials
should
be
conducted
on
a
representative
crop
(as
defined
in
40
CFR
180.41)
at
two
sites
per
crop
for
the
following
three
crop
groups:
root
and
tuber
vegetables,
leafy
vegetables
and
small
grains
(wheat,
barley,
oats,
and
rye)
for
a
total
of
six
27
trials.
As
with
confined
studies
(OPPTS
860.1850),
soybeans
may
be
substituted
for
the
leafy
vegetable.
The
six
trials
should
be
conducted
on
crops
which
a
registrant
intends
to
have
as
rotational
crops
on
the
label.
In
addition,
some
of
the
six
trials
could
be
conducted
using
other
crops
that
are
typically
involved
in
crop
rotation
such
as
alfalfa
and
soybeans.
The
registrants
have
informed
the
Agency
they
will
propose
the

TOLERANCE
REASSESSMENT
SUMMARY
Tolerances
for
residues
of
lindane
in/
on
raw
agricultural
and
animal
commodities
are
established
under
40
CFR
§180.133
and
expressed
in
terms
of
residues
of
lindane
per
se
[gamma
isomer
of
benzene
hexachloride].
The
residue
definition
for
lindane
is
misleading
and
should
be
amended
as
follows
to
harmonize
with
IUPAC
nomenclature:
gamma
isomer
of
1,
2,
3,
4,
5,
6hexachlorocyclohexane
Plant
commodity
tolerances
for
lindane
were
originally
established
based
on
registered
uses
which
included
preplant
soil
application,
foliar
applications,
and
seed
treatments.
Animal
commodity
tolerances
were
established
based
on
uses
which
included
direct
livestock
animal
treatment
as
well
as
animal
premise
treatment.
Refer
to
Table
B
for
a
list
of
established
lindane
tolerances.

The
only
food/
feed
use
of
lindane
which
is
being
supported
for
reregistration
is
seed
treatment
on
cereal
grains
(excluding
rice
and
wild
rice).

A
definitive
reassessment
of
the
currently
established
tolerances
for
lindane
cannot
be
made
at
this
time
due
to
major
deficiencies
in
the
residue
chemistry
database.
The
Agency
tentatively
concludes
that
no
changes
in
the
present
tolerance
expression
are
required
at
this
time
until
the
nature
of
the
residue
in
plants
and
animals
is
adequately
elucidated,
and
HED's
MARC
has
determined
the
terminal
residues
of
concern.
Because
of
the
Agency's
concerns
about
the
possibility
of
human
health
effects
due
to
dietary
exposure
to
lindane
and
the
lack
of
data
to
support
seed
treatment
uses,
no
additional
tolerances
other
than
those
required
to
support
the
basic
registrants'
proposed
seed
treatment
uses,
will
be
considered
until
the
data
gaps
identified
in
this
Residue
Chemistry
Chapter
are
fulfilled.

The
listing
of
lindane
tolerances
under
40
CFR
§180.133
should
be
subdivided
into
parts
(a),
(b),
(c),
and
(d).
Part
(a)
should
be
reserved
for
commodities
with
permanent
tolerances,
part
(b)
for
Section
18
emergency
exemptions,
part
©
for
tolerances
with
regional
registrations,
and
part
(d)
for
indirect
or
inadvertent
residues.

Pending
Tolerance
Petitions:

In
1993,
CIEL
proposed
to
delete
all
food/
feed
uses
except
seed
treatment.
Concomitantly,
CIEL
proposed
to
establish
tolerances
of
0.1
ppm
for
residues
of
lindane
per
se
in/
on
several
RACs
as
a
result
of
seed
treatment.
In
an
initial
Agency
review
(DP
Barcode
D213401,
10/
31/
95,
S.
Funk)
of
available
residue
data
reflecting
seed
treatment,
the
Agency
concluded
that
the
proposed
tolerances
were
adequate
in
some
instances
and
inadequate
or
non­
acceptable
in
others.
In
those
instances
where
the
proposed
tolerances
were
deemed
inadequate,
the
reviewer
proposed
values
that
HED
would
consider
as
appropriate.

In
1998,
CIEL
submitted
a
petition,
PP#
9F05057,
for
the
establishment
of
time­
limited
tolerances
for
residues
of
lindane
per
se
in/
on
several
commodities
resulting
from
seed
treatment.
The
Agency
review
(DP
Barcodes
D254236,
8/
30/
00,
T.
Morton)
of
these
tolerance
proposals
concluded
that
tolerances
could
not
be
established
until
an
adequate
plant
metabolism
study
was
submitted.

The
registrants
have
also
submitted
PP#
9F6022,
(D269388,
T.
Morton,
5/
10/

for
the
establishment
of
tolerances
on
lindane
per
se
in/
on
canola
for
which
seed
treatment
is
being
proposed.
Tolerances
cannot

CODEX
HARMONIZATION
The
Codex
Alimentarius
Commission
has
established
several
maximum
residue
limits
(MRLs)
for
lindane
in/
on
various
plant
and
animal
commodities.
The
Codex
MRLs
are
expressed
in
terms
of
gamma
HCH
(fat­
soluble).
With
respect
to
tolerance
expression,
the
Codex
MRL
and
U.
S.
tolerance
for
lindane
are
presently
in
harmony.
However,
the
nature
of
the
residue
in
plants
and
ruminants
remains
inadequately
understood,
and
the
HED's
MARC
may
determine
that
additional
lindane
metabolites
should
be
included
in
the
U.
S.
tolerance
expression.

A
numerical
comparison
of
the
Codex
MRLs
and
the
corresponding
reassessed
U.
S.
tolerances
resulting
from
seed
treatment
is
presented
in
Table
C.
The
established
Codex
MRLs
and
the
recommended
U.
S.
tolerances
for
Brussels
sprouts,
cabbage
(Savoy),
cabbages
(head),
cereal
grains,
lettuce
(head),
and
radish
are
not
in
harmony
presumably
because
of
differences
in
good
agricultural
practices.
Attempts
to
harmonize
residue
limits
in
animal
commodities
cannot
be
made
at
this
time
because
of
several
residue
chemistry
data
gaps.
