# §176.9. Publication of a tolerance.

- (a) If EPA issues an emergency exemption or crisis exemption under FIFRA [section 18](/cfr/40/18.md), and EPA concludes that the tolerance for residues resulting from use of the pesticide under the exemption will be safe, then EPA will establish the tolerance by publishing an amendment to [40 CFR part 180](/cfr/40/part180.md) in the Federal Register.
- (b) A tolerance under this part may be established without prior publication of a proposed tolerance or comment period.
