U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released an updated draft human health risk assessment (HH DRA) for the pesticide malathion. The updated HH DRA amends the 2016 malathion dietary, occupational, and residential risk assessments using updated information and techniques.

EPA is also proposing several food tolerance changes, based on commodity definition revisions and to harmonize tolerance levels with those of other countries.
