SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of March 31, 1994

(59 FR 15144), EPA issued a proposed rule that gave notice that the

Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd., had petitioned EPA under section 408 of

the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, 21 U.S.C. 346a, to establish

a permanent tolerance under 40 CFR 180.455 for procymidone in or on

wine grapes at 5.0 ppm. The comment period on the proposal was to

expire on April 30, 1994.

Because EPA has added additional documentation to the public docket

on the proposed tolerance under section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug

procymidone on wine grapes, EPA is reopening and extending for 30 days

the comment period on the proposed rule. Comments on the proposed rule

to establish a tolerance of 5.0 ppm for residues of the fungicide

procymidone on grapes that appeared in the Federal Register of March

31, 1994 (59 FR 15144), may be submitted to the address noted above in
