The agency is fixing errors or clarifications in how it conducts its business processes, which may affect how researchers, healthcare providers, and the public interact with the organization.
Pesticide Tolerance; Exemptions, Petitions, Revocations, etc.: Imidacloprid
The EPA is reviewing pesticide tolerance rules for imidacloprid, a widely-used insecticide found in many agricultural and household pest control products. This regulation determines how much imidacloprid residue is allowed on food crops and may change current safety limits based on new scientific evidence.
Pesticide Tolerance; Exemptions, Petitions, Revocations, etc.: Diphenylamine, et al.
The EPA is reviewing pesticide rules related to diphenylamine, a chemical used to protect fruits and vegetables during storage and shipping. The agency is considering whether to change, keep, or remove safety limits on how much of this chemical can remain on food.
Pesticide Tolerance; Exemptions, Petitions, Revocations, etc.: Inpyrfluxam
The EPA is proposing new rules about how much of the pesticide inpyrfluxam can remain on food crops and in the environment. This regulation determines whether this pesticide is safe enough to use on American farms and what limits should be placed on it.
Voluntary Standard: Full-Size Baby Cribs
The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is proposing a voluntary safety standard for full-size baby cribs to reduce risks of injury and death. This regulation sets guidelines that crib manufacturers can follow to make their products safer for infants and young children.
Pesticide Tolerance; Exemptions, Petitions, Revocations, etc.: Terbacil, et al.
The EPA is reviewing pesticide safety limits for terbacil and related chemicals used in agriculture. The agency is asking for public feedback on whether these pesticides are safe for food crops and the environment before deciding whether to keep, change, or remove the allowed residue limits.
Pesticide Tolerance; Exemptions, Petitions, Revocations, etc.: Pydiflumetofen
The EPA is deciding whether to allow or limit the use of pydiflumetofen, a pesticide used on crops, by setting safe levels of residue that can remain on food. This regulation affects what farmers can spray on crops and what pesticide residues consumers might be exposed to through the food they eat.
Pesticide Tolerance; Exemptions, Petitions, Revocations, etc.: Inpyrfluxam
The EPA is setting safety limits for a pesticide called Inpyrfluxam, which can be used on crops to control insects and other pests. This regulation establishes how much of this pesticide can remain on food and in the environment while still being considered safe for consumers and farmers.
State Home Care Agreements for State Home Medical Model Adult Day Health Care (AS41)
The Department of Veterans Affairs is proposing new rules about how states can set up agreements with the VA to provide adult day health care services to veterans at home. This regulation matters because it affects what health care services eligible veterans can access and how those services are paid for and delivered.
Maximum Line Speed under the New Swine Slaughter Inspection System
The federal government is proposing new rules about how fast pork processing plants can run their production lines while still properly inspecting meat for safety. The regulation aims to balance food safety with industry efficiency, and it matters because it affects both the safety of pork products Americans eat and the working conditions of plant employees.
Revocation of Regulations Regarding the Mutual Recognition of Pharmaceutical Good Manufacturing Practice Reports, Medical Device Quality System Audit Reports, and Certain Medical Device Product Evaluation Reports: United States and the European Community
The FDA is ending an agreement with the European Union that allowed them to accept each other's inspection reports for drug manufacturing and medical devices without doing their own inspections. This means the FDA will now need to conduct its own inspections of some drugs and devices that were previously approved based on European inspections, which could affect how quickly new medications and medical products reach American patients.
Revocation of Methods of Analysis Regulation
The FDA is removing outdated methods that were previously used to test and analyze food, drugs, and other products to ensure they are safe. This change allows the agency to rely on newer, more accurate testing techniques that better protect public health.
