The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for methomyl notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1180 (dated 18 July 2018) was adopted 9 October 2018. The proposed MRLs were established via entry into the Maximum Residue Limits Database and are provided directly below:MRL (ppm)1      Raw Agricultural Commodity (RAC) and/or Processed Commodity5.0                    Succulent shelled peas3.0                    Broccoli2.0                    Brussels sprouts, cauliflowers0.01                  All food commodities (other than those listed in this item)21 ppm = parts per million2 This MRL replaces the currently established MRLs of 4.0 ppm for grapes, 2.0 ppm for lettuce, 1.0 ppm for strawberries and 0.5 ppm for apples.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(s) or for food commodity(ies).
