Established Maximum Residue Limit: Clopyralid

The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for clopyralid notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1042 (dated 18 July 2016) was adopted 11 October 2016. The proposed MRLs were established via entry into the Maximum Residue Limits Database and are provided directly below:

MRL (ppm) Raw Agricultural Commodity (RAC) and/or Processed Commodity
1.5 Kidney of cattle, goats, horses, and sheep1
0.09 Meat by-products (except kidney) of cattle, goats, horses, and sheep2
0.015 Milk3
ppm = parts per million
1 Replaces the currently established MRLs of 0.36 ppm in these commodities.
2 Replaces the currently established MRLs of 0.05 ppm in meat by-products of cattle, goats, horses, and sheep.
3 Replaces the currently established MRL of 0.01 ppm in this commodity.
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 (http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/cps-spc/pest/part/protect-proteger/food-nourriture/mrl-lmr-eng.php). The database allows users to search for pesticides(s) or for food commodity(ies).
