residue data       The USEPA has announced the availability of proposed
requirements for   updated guidance on the residue requirements for the
registration       registration of pesticides.  This document descibes raw
                   and processed foods and animal feeds for which residue
                   data are collected and tolerances are set and the 
                   maximum allowed in the diets of animals.  This is an 
                   update of the "Guide for Estimating Toxic Residues in 
                   Animal Feeds and Diets" authored by Dr. L. Harris in 
                   1975.  The USEPA is reevaluating the policy of allowing 
                   as a substitute for data, a label restriction 
                   prohibiting the use (or sale) of a commodity for 
                   livestock feed purposes.  Comments will be accepted 
                   until 8/22/94.
