Established Maximum Residue Limit: Rimsulfuron

The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for rimsulfuron notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1523 (dated 18 July 2023) was adopted 11 October 2023. 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 Commodity0.02             Low growing berries, except strawberries2 (crop subgroup 13-07H; except lowbush blueberries3 and lingonberries4)1 ppm = parts per million2 As cranberry is the representative commodity of crop subgroup 13-07H, an MRL for the crop subgroup is established.3 Lowbush blueberries are excluded from this MRL action as an MRL of 0.05 ppm is already established for this commodity.4 Lingonberries are excluded from this MRL action as an MRL of 0.01 ppm is already established for this commodity.The commodities included in the listed crop groups/subgroups can be found on 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 section of the Canada.ca website.MRLs established in Canada may be found using Health Canada’s Maximum Residue Limit Databasehttps://pest-control.canada.ca/pesticide-registry/en/mrl-search.html) on the Maximum residue limits, human health, and food safety 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.htmlThe database allows users to search for pesticides or for food commodities.
