Pesticide oxathiapiprolin in or on various commodities (ICS Codes: 65.020, 65.100, 67.040, 67.080).

Proposed Maximum Residue Limit: Oxathiapiprolin (PMRL2021-12). Language(s): English and French. Number of pages: 6

The objective of the notified document PMRL2021-12 is to consult on the listed maximum residue limits (MRLs) for oxathiapiprolin that have been proposed by Health Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA).

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

0.5                     Bushberries (crop subgroup 13-07B, except lowbush blueberries)²

0.4                      Low growing berries (crop subgroup 13-07G, except lingonberries and         cranberries)^3,4

0.01                   Tree nuts (crop group 14-11)

¹ ppm = parts per million

² 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 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.
