Established Maximum Residue Limit: Oxathiapiprolin
Description
The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for oxathiapiprolin notified in G/SPS/N/CAN/1391 (dated 20 May 2021) was adopted 23 December 2021. 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 Commodity0.5 Bushberries (crop subgroup 13-07B, except lowbush blueberries)20.4 Low growing berries (crop subgroup 13-07G, except lingonberries and cranberries)3,40.01 Tree nuts (crop group 14-11)1ppm = parts per million2 Lowbush blueberries are in multiple crop subgroups and are included in crop subgroup 13-07G for this MRL action.3 Lingonberries are in multiple crop subgroups and are included in crop subgroup 13-07B for this MRL action.4 Cranberries are excluded from this MRL action since oxathiapriprolin is not registered for use on cranberries.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.
