(OJ L 254, 10.10.2018, p. 4). EN Offi cial Jour nal of the European Union 10.2.2021                                                                                                                                            L 46/5   (3) The active substances carbon tetrachlori de and omethoat e were never approved in the Union for the use in plant 
prote ction products. Temporar y MRLs were set for carbon tetrac hlor ide in cereals by Commission Regulation (EC) 
No 149/2008 (10) and omethoate in several products by Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/1135 (11). 
(4) All existing author isations for plant prot ection products containing those active substances have been revok ed. It is 
theref ore appropr iate to delet e the MRLs set out for those substances in Annex es II and III of Regulation (EC) 
No 396/2005 in accordance with Article 17 of that Regulation in conjunction with Article 14(1)(a) thereof. 
(5) The Commission consulted the European Union reference laborat ories as regar ds the need to adap t certain limits of 
determination (LOD s). Those laboratori es concluded that for certain products technical development permits the 
setting of lowe r LODs. For the active substances for whic h all MRLs should be reduced to the relevant LODs, default 
values should be liste d in Annex V in accordance with Article 18(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. 
(6) In accordance with Article 6(2) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, an application was submitte d for modification of 
the existing MRL for potat oes together with residue trials and monitori ng data. The request was made to account 
for poten tial contamination of potatoes abov e the default MRL of 0,01 mg/kg when stored in facilities with a 
histo ry of chlor propham use. The applicant claims that, due to the specifi c proper ties of chlor propham, with the 
current cleaning operations of these storage facilities remaining residues cannot be fully avoided. The submitte d 
monitori ng data conf irm the presence of residues of chlor propham in untreat ed potatoes. 
(7) The Netherlands evaluated that application in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 and 
forwarded the evaluation repor t to the Commission. 
(8) The European Food Safet y Auth ority (‘the Auth ority’) assessed the application and the evaluation repor t, examining 
in particular risks to consumers and, where relevant, to animals and gave a scientific opinion on the proposed 
MRL (12). It forwarded that opinion to the applicant, the Commission and the Member States and made it available 
to the public. 
(9) The Author ity concluded in its scientific opinion that the MRLs recommended by the Netherlands either at 
0,3 mg/kg or at 0,4 mg/kg were acceptable with regard to consumer safety on the basis of a consumer exposure 
assessment for 27 specifi c European consumer groups. The Auth ority took into account the most recent 
information on the toxicological proper ties of the substance and considered the presence of 3-ch loroaniline, which 
is formed at conditions reflecting oven-baking of potatoes. Neither the lifetime exposure to chlor propham via 
consum ption of all food products that may contain it, nor the shor t-term exposure to chlor propham and its major 
metabolite 3-ch loroaniline, due to high consump tion of potatoe s, showed that there is a risk that the acceptable 
daily intake or the acute reference dose is exceed ed. 
(10) In light of the Author ity’s conclusions on risk to consumers, and taking into account that the levels should be set as 
low as reasonably achi evable, the MRL for potatoes should be set at a level of 0,4 mg/kg resulting from the Good 
Laboratory Practice (GLP) trials and corresponding to the 97,5th percentile of all the sample results. Moreover , as 
the Authority concluded that the current cleaning practices are inadequat e, it is appropr iate to provide food 
business operat ors with suffi cient time to develop and introduce a new cleaning methodology . 
(11) This temporar y MRL will be reviewed based on monitori ng data submitted to the Commission by 31 December 
2021 and thereaf ter by 31 December of each subsequent year. It will allow the Commission to regularly re-assess 
the situation and gradually reduce the MRL, where appropr iate, as implementation of bette r cleaning methodology 
progresses. A repor t on the development and implementation of cleaning practices should be submitted to the 
Commission together with the monitori ng data by 31 December 2021, and updat es to it in the subsequent years. 
(12) Through the World Trade Org anisation, the trading partners of the Union were consulte d on the new MRLs and their 
comments have been taken into account.
