Pesticide fluazifop-butyl in or on various commodities (ICS Codes: 65.020, 65.100, 67.040, 67.080)

Proposed Maximum Residue Limit: Fluazifop-butyl (PMRL2018-54)

The objective of the notified document PMRL2018-54 is to consult on the listed maximum residue limits (MRLs) for fluazifop-butyl that have been proposed by Health Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA).

MRL (ppm)1 Raw Agricultural Commodity (RAC) and/or Processed Commodity

5.0              Leaf lettuce

3.0              Head lettuce

1.5              Green onions (crop subgroup 3-07B)

0.5              Bulb onions (crop subgroup 3-07A, except dry bulb onions)2

0.08            Caneberries (crop subgroup 13-07A)

1 ppm = parts per million

2 Dry bulb onions are excluded from this MRL action as a 0.5 ppm MRL is already established for the commodity. MRLs are proposed 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.
