   of 10 May 2017
   approving dichlofluanid as an existing active substance for use in biocidal products of product-type 21
   (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 dichlofluanid.

               (2)

               Dichlofluanid has been evaluated for use in products of product-type 21, antifouling products, as described in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

               (3)

               The United Kingdom was designated as evaluating competent authority and submitted the assessment report together with its recommendations on 22 October 2015.

               (4)

               In accordance with Article 7(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, the opinion of the European Chemicals Agency was formulated on 11 October 2016 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 21 containing dichlofluanid may be expected to satisfy the criteria of Article 19(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, provided that certain specifications and conditions concerning their use are complied with.

               (6)

               The acceptability of the risks related to the use of antifouling products, as well as the suitability of the proposed risk mitigation measures, should however be further confirmed. In order to facilitate, at the time of the renewal of the approvals of existing antifouling active substances, the review and comparison of the risks and benefits of those substances as well as of the risk mitigation measures applied, the expiry date of approval of all those substances should be the same.

               (7)

               It is therefore appropriate to approve dichlofluanid for use in biocidal products of product-type 21, subject to compliance with certain specifications and conditions.

               (8)

               Since dichlofluanid meets the criteria for classification as skin sensitiser category 1 as defined in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), treated articles treated with or incorporating dichlofluanid should be appropriately labelled when placed on the market.

               (9)

               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.

               (10)

               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
   Dichlofluanid is approved as an active substance for use in biocidal products of product-type 21, 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 product assessment shall pay particular attention to the exposures, the risks and the efficacy linked to any uses covered by an application for authorisation, but not addressed in the Union-level risk assessment of the active substance.
                  In the event that products containing dichlofluanid are subsequently authorised for use by non-professional users, persons making products available on the market for non-professional users shall ensure that the products are supplied with appropriate gloves.
                  The authorisations of biocidal products are subject to the following conditions:

                              (1)

                              Products containing dichlofluanid shall not be authorised or used to control the growth and settlement of fouling organisms on freshwater going vessels.

                              (2)

                              For industrial or professional users, safe operational procedures and appropriate organisational measures shall be established. Where exposure cannot be reduced to an acceptable level by other means, products shall be used with appropriate personal protective equipment.

                              (3)

                              Labels and, where provided, instructions for use shall indicate that children shall be kept away until treated surfaces are dry.

                              (4)

                              Labels and, where provided, safety data sheets of products authorised shall indicate that application, maintenance and repair activities shall be conducted within a contained area, on an impermeable hard standing with bunding or on soil covered with an impermeable material to prevent losses and minimise emissions to the environment, and that any losses or waste containing dichlofluanid shall be collected for reuse or disposal.

                              (5)

                              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.

                        The placing on the market of treated articles is subject to the following condition:
                  The person responsible for the placing on the market of a treated article treated with or incorporating dichlofluanid shall ensure that the label of that treated article provides the information listed in the second subparagraph of Article 58(3) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

         (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. The active substance in the product placed on the market can be of equal or different purity if it has been proven to be technically equivalent to the evaluated active substance.

         (2)  Regulation (EC) No 470/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 May 2009 laying down Community procedures for the establishment of residue limits of pharmacologically active substances in foodstuffs of animal origin, repealing Council Regulation (EEC) No 2377/90 and amending Directive 2001/82/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Regulation (EC) No 726/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 152, 16.6.2009, p. 11).

         (3)  Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 February 2005 on maximum residue levels of pesticides in or on food and feed of plant and animal origin and amending Council Directive 91/414/EEC (OJ L 70, 16.3.2005, p. 1).

         COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 789/2011
   of 5 August 2011
   opening the procedure for the allocation of export licences for cheese to be exported to the United States of America in 2012 under certain GATT quotas
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 171(1), in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Section 2 of Chapter III of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1187/2009 of 27 November 2009 laying down special detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 as regards export licences and export refunds for milk and milk products (2) provides that export licences for cheese exported to the United States of America as part of the quotas under the agreements concluded during multilateral trade negotiations may be allocated according to a special procedure by which preferred importers in the USA may be designated.

               (2)

               That procedure should be opened for exports during 2012 and the additional rules relating to it should be determined.

               (3)

               In administering imports the competent authorities in the USA make a distinction between the additional quota granted to the European Union under the Uruguay Round and the quotas resulting from the Tokyo Round. Export licences should be allocated taking into account the eligibility of those products for the USA quota in question as described in the Harmonised Tariff Schedule of the United States of America.

               (4)

               With a view to exporting the maximum quantity under the quotas for which there is moderate interest, applications covering the whole quota quantity should be allowed.

               (5)

               The Commission has developed an information system that allows managing documents and procedures electronically in its own internal working procedures and in its relations with the authorities involved in the common agricultural policy. It is considered that the notifications provided for in Section 2 of Chapter III of Regulation (EC) No 1187/2009 and in this Regulation can be fulfilled via that system in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 792/2009 of 31 August 2009 laying down detailed rules for the Member States' notification to the Commission of information and documents in implementation of the common organisation of markets, the direct payments' regime, the promotion of agricultural products and the regimes applicable to the outermost regions and the smaller Aegean islands (3). In the interests of efficient administration, Member States should use that information system, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 792/2009.

               (6)

               For reasons of legal certainty and clarity, it should be laid down that the measures provided for in this Regulation cease to apply at the end of 2012.

               (7)

               The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,

         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

               (2)

               Regular monitoring of the data used to determine representative prices for poultrymeat and egg products and for egg albumin shows that the representative import prices for certain products should be amended to take account of variations in price according to origin.

               (3)

               Regulation (EC) No 1484/95 should be amended accordingly.

               (4)

   concerning the non-renewal of approval of the active substance isoproturon, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market, and amending Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011
   (Text with EEA relevance)
   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market and repealing Council Directives 79/117/EEC and 91/414/EEC (1), and in particular Article 20(1) and Article 78(2) thereof,
   Whereas:

               (1)

               Commission Directive 2002/18/EC (2) included isoproturon as an active substance in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC (3).

               (2)

               Active substances included in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC are deemed to have been approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 and are listed in Part A of the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 (4).

               (3)

               The approval of the active substance isoproturon, as set out in Part A of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011, expires on 30 June 2016.

               (4)

               An application for the renewal of the inclusion of isoproturon in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC was submitted in accordance with Article 4 of Commission Regulation (EU) No 1141/2010 (5) within the time period provided for in that Article.

               (5)

               The applicant submitted the supplementary dossiers required in accordance with Article 9 of Regulation (EU) No 1141/2010. The application was found to be complete by the rapporteur Member State.

               (6)

               The rapporteur Member State prepared a renewal assessment report in consultation with the co-rapporteur Member State and submitted it to the European Food Safety Authority (hereinafter ‘the Authority’) and the Commission on 28 February 2014.

               (7)

               The Authority communicated the renewal assessment report to the applicant and to the Member States for comments and forwarded the comments received to the Commission. The Authority also made the supplementary summary dossier available to the public.

               (8)

               On 5 August 2015 the Authority communicated to the Commission its conclusion (6) on whether isoproturon can be expected to meet the approval criteria provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. The Authority concluded that there is a high potential for the representative uses assessed to result in groundwater exposure above the parametric drinking water limit of 0,1 μg/l by the relevant metabolites of isoproturon in situations represented by all pertinent groundwater scenarios. In addition, a high long-term risk to birds and wild mammals and a high risk to aquatic organisms from isoproturon were identified.

               (9)

               Based on these identified risks, it has not been established with respect to one or more representative uses of at least one plant protection product that the approval criteria provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 are satisfied. It is therefore appropriate not to renew the approval of isoproturon in accordance with Article 20(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009.
