| | Spanish translation:copa de riesgo | Explanation:
"Before FQPA, a cup was something that held coffee, shortening, or flour. Now, a cup has become the pivotal concept governing pesticide use. EPA pesticide tolerances allow applications in the amount of active ingredient to which a person can be exposed each day without becoming a health threat. Think of a cup that holds that exact amount: That's the "risk cup.""

En otras lenguas romances (como en francés, por ejemplo), se conoce por el equivalente de "copa de riesgo", así que debería funcionar en español también. |

Explanation:
The risk cup is a specific term with specific meaning: "EPA uses the idea of a “risk cup” to explain the new rules for determining tolerance levels. Under the new procedures, the risk cup may fill up or even overflow." A visual description is found in http://ipm.ncsu.edu/srpsec/fqpa.pdf
