Proposal Made
For Pesticide
Residue Levels
At the request of the Cali
fornia Depai tments of Pub
lic Health and Agriculture,
the Food and Drug Admin
istration has published a pro
posal to establish residue tol
eiances for DDT. DDD, and
DDE in milk
The Calitorma pioposal
would establish tolerances
tor residues ot these three
pesticides in milk at 005
ppm (pats per million) each.
It more than one of the thiee
chemicals is present, the to
tal may not exceed 0 10 ppm
The proposal would also set
toleiances in dairy products
such as butter, cheese and
ice cream for the three chem
icals at 125 ppm each in
the fat poition ot the prod
ucts with the piovision that
if moie than one of the three
is piesent the total may not
exceed 2 50 ppm in the fat

particularly from the stand
