Furthermore, the CAA proposed revoking MRLs for 28 pesticides. Additionally, the CAA proposed revising the food additive specifications for Fructosyl Transferase and Glutaminase. By July 20, 2026, interested U.S. parties can submit comments to PlantDivision@usda.gov for plant products, TFAA.FAS.AnimalDivision@usda.gov for animal products, and PPTRD@usda.gov for processed products. The CAA will also notify the proposed revisions to the World Trade Organization.
