         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/1937
   of 4 November 2016
   approving cyfluthrin as an existing active substance for use in biocidal products of product-type 18
   (Text with EEA relevance)
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 89(1) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 (2) establishes a list of existing active substances to be evaluated for their possible approval for use in biocidal products. That list includes cyfluthrin.

               (2)

               Cyfluthrin has been evaluated in accordance with Article 16(2) of Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) for use in products of product-type 18, insecticides, acaricides and products to control other arthropods, as defined in Annex V to that Directive, which corresponds to product-type 18 as defined in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

               (3)

               Germany was designated as evaluating competent authority and submitted the assessment report together with its recommendations on 23 December 2010.

               (4)

               In accordance with Article 7(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, the opinion of the European Chemicals Agency was formulated on 16 February 2016 for use in products of product-type 18 by the Biocidal Products Committee, having regard to the conclusions of the evaluating competent authority.

               (5)

               According to that opinion, biocidal products of product-type 18 containing cyfluthrin may be expected to satisfy the requirements of Article 5 of Directive 98/8/EC, provided that certain specifications and conditions concerning their use are complied with.

               (6)

               It is therefore appropriate to approve cyfluthrin for use in biocidal products of product-type 18, subject to compliance with certain specifications and conditions.

               (7)

               A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is approved in order to permit interested parties to take the preparatory measures necessary to meet the new requirements.

               (8)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
   Article 1
   Cyfluthrin is approved as an active substance for use in biocidal products of product-type 18, subject to the specifications and conditions set out in the Annex.
   Article 2
   This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

      This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

                  The authorisations of biocidal products are subject to the following conditions:

                              1.

                              The product assessment shall pay particular attention to the exposures, the risks and the efficacy linked to any use covered by an application for authorisation, but not addressed in the Union-level risk assessment of the active substance.

                              2.

                              In view of the risks identified for the uses assessed, the product assessment shall pay particular attention to:

                                          (a)

                                          surface water and sediment for products used in domestic premises and animal housing with release to a sewage treatment plant;

                                          (b)

                              3.

                              For products that may lead to residues in food or feed, the need to set new or to amend existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 470/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) or Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) shall be verified, and any appropriate risk mitigation measures shall be taken to ensure that the applicable MRLs are not exceeded.

         (1)  The purity indicated in this column was the minimum degree of purity of the active substance evaluated in accordance with Article 89(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

   amending Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 as regards the entry for Uruguay in the list of third countries, territories or parts thereof authorised for the introduction of fresh meat into the Union and correcting that Regulation as regards the model veterinary certificate for ovine and caprine animals intended for breeding or production after importation
   (Text with EEA relevance)
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Directive 2004/68/EC of 26 April 2004 laying down animal health rules for the importation into and transit through the Community of certain live ungulate animals, amending Directives 90/426/EEC and 92/65/EEC and repealing Directive 72/462/EEC (1), and in particular Article 6(1), Article 7 point (e), and Article 13(1) thereof,
   Having regard to Council Directive 2002/99/EC of 16 December 2002 laying down the animal health rules governing the production, processing, distribution and introduction of products of animal origin for human consumption (2), and in particular the introductory phrase and points (1) and (4) of Article 8, thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Commission Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 (3) lays down the veterinary certification requirements for the introduction into the Union of certain consignments of live animals or fresh meat. It also establishes lists of third countries, territories or parts thereof which fulfill certain criteria and from which therefore consignments may be introduced into the Union.

               (2)

               Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 authorises the imports of fresh deboned and matured bovine meat from the whole territory of Uruguay.

               (3)

               Uruguay is free of foot and mouth disease but practices vaccination. It has thus a general health status for bovine animals different from that of the Union. As a result Uruguay is only allowed to export fresh deboned and matured meat of bovine animals. The import requirements provide that the bovine animals intended for slaughter for export of fresh meat to the Union are sent directly from the holding of origin to the slaughterhouse. This rule excludes many small holdings from producing for the Union market as their animals always pass through assembly centres or animal markets before slaughter.

               (4)

               A Union audit in March 2012 confirmed that Uruguay’s identification and movement registration system allows certifying veterinarians to verify the prior whereabouts of the animals. The system thus ensures that animals have stayed 40 days on one holding before transport to the slaughterhouse. Uruguay can also guarantee that the Union animal health import requirements for bovine animals destined for slaughter for export of fresh deboned and matured bovine meat to the Union are respected even if those animals pass through assembly centres and/or markets prior to slaughter due to a system that identifies all bovine animals individually so that they can be traced back to their origin.

               (5)

               Uruguay thus offers guarantees sufficient to ensure that all bovine animals whose meat is destined for export to the Union have the same health status when passing through an assembly centre (including markets) in Uruguay prior to slaughter. Therefore, the entry corresponding to this country in the list in Part 1 of Annex II to Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 should be adapted.

               (6)

               An error appeared in two references to footnotes contained in Part II.2 of the model certificate ‘OVI-X’ set out in Part 2 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 206/2010. Regulation (EU) No 206/2010 should therefore be amended and corrected accordingly.

               (7)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

   Correcting provisions
   In Part 2 of Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 206/2010, Part II of the model certificate ‘OVI-X’, is corrected as follows:

               (b)

               in point II.2.9, the introductory phrase:
               ‘they are/were(1) dispatched from their holding(s) of origin, without passing through any market,’
               is replaced by the following:
               ‘they are/were(2) dispatched from their holding(s) of origin, without passing through any market,’

         Article 3

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2017/1482
   of 17 August 2017
   amending Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 861/2013 imposing a definitive countervailing duty and collecting definitively the provisional duty imposed on imports of certain stainless steel wires originating in India, as regards the TARIC codes of the non-sampled cooperating exporting producers
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/1036 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Union (1) (‘the basic Regulation’),
   Whereas:

               (1)

               The Annex to Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 861/2013 (2), as corrected by a Corrigendum with regard to the denomination of two companies (3), sets out the list of the non-sampled Indian cooperating exporting producers.

               (2)

               Following the publication of the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/220 (4) amending Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1106/2013 (5) imposing a definitive anti- dumping duty on imports of certain stainless steel wires originating in India, the TARIC additional codes attributed by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 861/2013 are no longer correct for some companies listed in that Annex. This is because the specific TARIC additional codes should now match those of the Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/220.

               (3)

               The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 861/2013 should therefore be corrected accordingly.

               (4)

               The corrected provisions should apply from the date of application of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/220,
