 Established Maximum Residue Limits: Fludioxonil 
The proposed maximum residue limit (PMRL) document for fludioxonil notified in 
G/SPS/N/CAN/692 (dated 1 July 2013) was adopted 17 September 2013. 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 
30a Spinach 
0.5b Fruiting Vegetable Group (Crop Group 8-09), except tomatillos and Tomatoes 
ppm = parts per million 
a The MRL of 30 ppm replaces the previously  established MRL of 0.01 ppm (EMRL2008-02). 
b The MRL of 0.5 ppm replaces the previously established MRL of 0.01 ppm for bell peppers, 
eggplants, ground cherries, non-bell peppers, pepinos, and pepper hybrids. A new MRL is not 
required for tomatillos and tomatoes since there is an established MRL of 0.5 ppm for these two 
crops (EMRL2012-28). 
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
