This document provides an overview of the policy of Health Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency in estimating the concentration of pesticides in potential drinking water sources. These estimates are incorporated into aggregate exposure assessments as part of the process of assessing the potential impact of pesticide use on the health of Canadians.

The following policy document is intended to provide guidance and information to PMRA personnel and decision-makers, and to the public. As a guidance document, the policy in this document describes the process used by PMRA scientists in dietary risk assessments.

Aggregate exposure and risk assessments involve the analysis of exposure to a single chemical by multiple pathways and routes of exposure. The pathways of exposure considered in this general principles document include the potential for pesticide residues in food and drinking water, as well as residues from pesticide use in residential, non-occupational environments.

The following policy document is intended to provide guidance and information to the Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) personnel and decision-makers and to the public.
