of 3 June 2014  
amending Annexes II and III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the 
Council as regards maximum residue levels for ethoxysulfuron, metsulfuron-methyl, nicosulfuron, 
prosulfuron, rimsulfuron, sulfosulfuron and thifensulfuron-methyl in or on certain products  
(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 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 (  1 ), and in particular Article 14(1)(a), Article 18(1)(b) and Article 49(2) thereof,  
Whereas:  
(1) For ethoxysulfuron, metsulfuron-methyl, prosulfuron, rimsulfuron, sulfosulfuron and thifensulfuron-methyl 
maximum residue levels (MRLs) were set in Annex II and Part B of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. 
For nicosulfuron MRLs were set in Part A of Annex III to that Regulation.  
(2) For ethoxysulfuron, the European Food Safety Authority, hereinafter ‘the Authority’, submitted a reasoned opinion 
on the existing MRLs in accordance with Article 12(2) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 in conjunction with 
Article 12(1) thereof (  2 ). It concluded that concerning the MRL for rice some information was not available and 
that further consideration by risk managers was required. As there is no risk for consumers, the MRL for that 
product should be set in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 at the specific limit of determination. This MRL 
will be reviewed; the review will take into account the information available within two years from the publication 
of this Regulation.  
(3) For metsulfuron-methyl, the Authority submitted a reasoned opinion on the existing MRLs in accordance with 
Article 12(2) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 in conjunction with Article 12(1) thereof (  3 ). It recommended 
lowering the MRLs for barley grain, oat grain, rice grain, rye grain and wheat grain. It recommended, for 
certain products, raising or keeping the existing MRLs or setting MRLs at the level identified by the Authority. 
It concluded that concerning the MRL for linseed some information was not available and that further 
consideration by risk managers was required. As there is no risk for consumers, the MRL for this product 
should be set in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 at the existing level or the level identified by the 
Authority. This MRL will be reviewed; the review will take into account the information available within two years 
from the publication of this Regulation.EN 11.6.2014 Official Journal of the European Union L 171/1

Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005.  EFSA Journal  2013; 11(1):3078. [32 pp.].(4) For nicosulfuron, the Authority submitted a reasoned opinion on the existing MRLs in accordance with 
Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 (  1 ). It concluded that concerning the MRLs for maize grain and 
sweet corn some information was not available and that further consideration by risk managers was required. As 
there is no risk for consumers, MRLs for those products should be set in Annex II to Regulation (EC) 
No 396/2005 at the existing level or the level identified by the Authority. Those MRLs will be reviewed; the 
review will take into account the information available within two years from the publication of this Regulation.  
(5) For prosulfuron, the Authority submitted a reasoned opinion on the existing MRLs in accordance with Article 12(2) 
of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 in conjunction with Article 12(1) thereof (  2 ). It recommended lowering the MRLs 
for sweet corn, maize, millet and sorghum. It concluded that concerning the MRLs for barley and wheat (Spelt, 
triticale) some information was not available and that further consideration by risk managers was required. As 
there is no risk for consumers, MRLs for those products should be set in Annex II to Regulation (EC) 
No 396/2005 at the existing level or the level identified by the Authority. Those MRLs will be reviewed; the 
review will take into account the information available within two years from the publication of this Regulation.  
(6) For rimsulfuron, the Authority submitted a reasoned opinion on the existing MRLs in accordance with Article 12(2) 
of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 in conjunction with Article 12(1) thereof (  3 ). It recommended lowering the MRLs 
for potatoes, tomatoes, sweet corn, maize grain and chicory roots.  
(7) For sulfosulfuron, the Authority submitted a reasoned opinion on the existing MRLs in accordance with 
Article 12(2) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 in conjunction with Article 12(1) thereof (  4 ). It concluded that 
concerning the MRL for potatoes no information was available and that further consideration by risk managers 
was required. The MRL for potatoes should be set at the specific limit of determination or at the default MRL as set 
out in Article 18(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. The Authority concluded that concerning the MRLs for 
rye grain and wheat grain some information was not available and that further consideration by risk managers was 
required. As there is no risk for consumers, the MRLs for rye grain and wheat grain should be set in Annex II to 
Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 at the specific limit of determination. Those MRLs will be reviewed; the review will 
take into account the information available within two years from the publication of this Regulation.  
(8) For thifensulfuron-methyl, the Authority submitted a reasoned opinion on the existing MRLs in accordance with 
Article 12(2) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 in conjunction with Article 12(1) thereof (  5 ). It recommended 
lowering the MRLs for soya bean, barley grain, maize grain, millet grain, oat grain, rye grain, sorghum grain 
and wheat grain. It recommended, for certain products, raising or keeping the existing MRLs or setting MRLs at the 
level identified by the Authority. The Authority concluded that concerning the MRL for linseed no information was 
available and that further consideration by risk managers was required. The MRL for linseed should be set at the 
specific limit of determination or at the default MRL as set out in Article 18(1)(b) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005.  
(9) As regards products of plant and animal origin for which neither relevant authorisations nor import tolerances 
were reported at Union level nor Codex MRLs were available, the Authority concluded that further consideration 
by risk managers was required. Taking into account the current scientific and technical knowledge, MRLs for those 
products should be set at the specific limit of determination or at the default MRL as laid down in Article 18(1)(b) 
of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005.EN L 171/2 Official Journal of the European Union 11.6.2014

Regulation (EC) No 396/2005.  EFSA Journal  2012;10(12):3064. [27 pp.].  
( 5 ) European Food Safety Authority; Review of the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for thifensulfuron-methyl according to 
Article 12 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005.  EFSA Journal  2012;10(8):2863. [38 pp.].(10) The Commission consulted the European Union reference laboratories for residues of pesticides as regards the need 
to adapt certain limits of determination. As regards several substances, those laboratories concluded that for certain 
commodities technical development requires the setting of specific limits of determination.  
(11) Based on the reasoned opinions of the Authority and taking into account the factors relevant to the matter under 
consideration, the appropriate modifications to the MRLs fulfil the requirements of Article 14(2) of Regulation (EC) 
No 396/2005.  
(12) Through the World Trade Organisation, the trading partners of the Union were consulted on the new MRLs and 
their comments have been taken into account.  
(13) Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 should therefore be amended accordingly.  
(14) A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before the modified MRLs become applicable in order to permit 
Member States, third countries and food business operators to prepare themselves to meet the new requirements 
which will result from the modification of the MRLs.  
(15) In order to allow for the normal marketing, processing and consumption of products, this Regulation should 
provide for a transitional arrangement for products which have been lawfully produced before the modification of 
the MRLs and for which information shows that a high level of consumer protection is maintained.  
(16) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on 
the Food Chain and Animal Health,
