Established Maximum Residue Limit: Pendimethalin

The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for pendimethalin notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1325 (dated 12 August 2020) was adopted 2 November 2020. The proposed MRL was established via entry into the Maximum Residue Limits Database and is provided directly below:MRL (ppm)1      Raw Agricultural Commodity (RAC) and/or Processed Commodity 0.1                    Bulb onions (crop subgroup 3-07A, except dry bulb onions)21ppm = parts per million2 Dry bulb onions are excluded from this MRL action as a 0.1 ppm MRL is already established for the
commodity.            An MRL is established for each commodity included in the listed crop groupings in accordance with the Residue Chemistry Crop Groups webpage (https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/consumer-product-safety/pesticides-pest-management/public/protecting-your-health-environment/pesticides-food/residue-chemistry-crop-groups.html) in the Pesticides and Pest Management section of the Canada.ca website.            MRLs established in Canada may be found using Health Canada's Maximum Residue Limit Database (http://pr-rp.hc-sc.gc.ca/mrl-lrm/index-eng.php) on the Maximum Residue Limits for Pesticides webpage (https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/consumer-product-safety/pesticides-pest-management/public/protecting-your-health-environment/pesticides-food/maximum-residue-limits-pesticides.html). The database allows users to search for pesticides or for food commodities.
