check at the Code
of Federal Regulations for Lambda and its isomer Gamma-cyhalothrin:
this insecticide is permitted in
or on over 380 food
commodities in the United States.
The
following list identifies these crops for which EPA has set
pesticide tolerances.
Note:
A
food additive tolerance of 0.01 ppm is established for residues
of the insecticide Lambda-cyhalothrin
In or on all food items
(other than those already covered by a higher tolerance
as a result of use on growing crops) in food-handling establishments
where food products are held, processed, or prepared - see
(3) below.

The analytical enforcement methods for lambda-cyhalothrin
are
applicable for determination of gamma-cyhalothrin residues
in plant
and animal commodities. |
(3)
A food additive tolerance of 0.01
part per million is
established for residues of the insecticide [1[alpha](S*),3[alpha](Z)]-
()-cyano(3-phenoxyphenyl)methyl 3-(2-chloro-3,3,3-
trifluoro-1-propenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate
(lambdacyhalothrin) as follows:
(i)
In or on all food items (other than
those already covered by a
higher tolerance as a result of use on growing crops) in
food-handling
establishments where food products are held, processed,
or prepared.
(ii)
Application shall be limited solely
to spot and/or crack and
crevice treatment with a spray solution maximum of
a 0.06-percent active
ingredient by weight. Food must be removed or covered during
treatment.
Spray should not be applied directly to surfaces or utensils
that may
come into contact with food. Food-contact surfaces and equipment
should
be thoroughly cleaned with an effective cleaning compound
and rinsed
with potable water before using.
(iii)
For spot treatment, a coarse low-pressure spray shall be
used.
Limit individual spot treatments to an area no larger than
20 percent of
the surface area. Any individual spot treatment shall not
exceed 2
square feet.
(iv)
For crack and crevice treatment, equipment capable of
delivering a pin-stream of spray directly into the cracks
and crevices
shall be used.
(v) To assure safe use of the additive, its label and labeling
shall
conform to that registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, and it shall be used in accordance with such label
and labeling.
(b)
Section 18 emergency exemptions. Time-limited
tolerances are
established for combined residues of the insecticide lambda-cyhalothrin
