This document describes a proposal for a regulatory change that would result in the revocation of the General Maximum Residue Limit (MRL) Regulation which currently provides a default level of 0.1 parts per million (ppm) for pesticide residues on domestically grown and imported food unless specific MRLs are set. According to the proposal, specific MRLs for each pesticide and food combination will be set at levels at or below 0.1 ppm.
