The objective of the notified document PMRL2016-59 is to consult on the listed domestic maximum residue limits (MRLs) for mandipropamid that have been proposed by Health Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA).

MRL (ppm)1 Raw Agricultural Commodity (RAC) and/or Processed Commodity
0.09 Tuberous and corm vegetables (crop subgroup 1C)2
1 ppm = parts per million
2 The proposed MRL for tuberous and corm vegetables (CSG 1C) will replace the established MRL of 0.01 ppm for potatoes.

MRLs are proposed for each commodity included in the listed crop groupings in accordance with the Residue Chemistry Crop Groups webpage (http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/cps-spc/pest/part/protect-proteger/food-nourriture/rccg-gcpcr-eng.php) in the Pesticides and Pest Management section of Health Canada's website.
