Phorate .: H113-24/2015-47E-PDF
Under the authority of the Pest Control Products Act, Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) has concluded that the registration of the new end-use product Thimet 20-G on potatoes, containing technical grade phorate, is acceptable. The specific uses approved in Canada are detailed on the label of Thimet 20-G, Pest Control Products Act Registration Number 29000. While the evaluation of this phorate application indicated that the end-use product has value and the human health and environmental risks associated with the new uses are acceptable, the risks from exposure to total phorate residues from treated crops (other than potatoes), at the MRL levels established in exporting countries, exceed PMRA’s level of concern. Therefore, MRLs are being proposed for all uses not registered in Canada at the limit of quantitation of the enforcement analytical method.
