12672. The director or commissioner may prohibit the harvest of any produce or may seize and hold any lot of produce when a preharvest interval specified in the registered labeling of a pesticide applied to the produce has not been complied with. Except as provided in Section 12673, this harvest prohibition shall not extend beyond the expiration of the preharvest interval. Lots of produce so seized shall be held until the preharvest interval has expired and the director has determined that any pesticide residue is within a permissible tolerance.(Amended by Stats. 1990, Ch. 288, Sec. 3.)
