THE EUR OPEAN COMMISSION, 
Having regar d to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, 
Having regar d to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 
on additives for use in animal nutr ition (1), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof, 
Whereas: 
(1)  Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provi des for the author isation of additives for use in animal nutr ition and for the 
grounds and procedures for granting such author isation. Article 10 of that Regulation provid es for the re- 
evaluation of additives author ised pursuant to Council Directive 70/524/EEC (2). 
(2)  The substances menthol, d-car vone, menthyl acetat e, d,l-isomenthone, 3-meth yl-2-(pent-2(cis)-enyl)cy clopent-2- 
en-1-one, 3,5,5-tr imethyl cyclohex-2-en-1-one, d-fenchone, fench yl alcohol, carvyl acetate, dihy drocar vyl acetat e 
and fench yl acetat e (‘substances concer ned’) were author ised without a time limit by Directive 70/524/EEC as feed 
additives for all animal species. Those substances were subsequently entered in the Registe r of feed additives as 
existing products, in accordance with Article 10(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. 
(3)  In accordance with Article 10(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 in conjunction with Article 7 thereof, an 
application was submitted for the re-evaluation of the substances concer ned as feed additives for all animal 
species. The applicant request ed those additives be classified in the additive catego ry ‘sensor y additives ’. That 
application was accompan ied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) 
No 1831/2003. 
(4)  The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) concluded in its opinion of 20 Apr il 2016 (3) that, under 
the proposed conditions of use the substances concer ned do not have adverse effects on animal health, human 
health or the environment. The Author ity has concluded that, since the substances concer ned are efficacious 
when used in food as flavourings and their function in feed is essentially the same as in food, no further 
demonstration of efficacy is necessar y. Theref ore, that conclusion can be extrapolat ed to feed. The applicant 
withdrew the application for the use of the substances concer ned in water for drinking. 
(5)  The Author ity further noted that hazards for the skin, eye contact and respirato ry exposure are recognised. Most 
substances are classified as irritating to the respirato ry system . Consequently , appropr iate prote ctive measures 
should be take n. The Author ity does not consider that there is a need for specifi c requirements of post-market 
monitoring. It also verified the repor t on the method of analysis of the feed additives in feed submitted by the 
Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. 
(6)  The assessment of the substances concer ned shows that the conditions for author isation, as provided for in 
Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. According ly, the use of those substances should be 
author ised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation. 
(7)  The applicant proposed use levels for the substances concer ned to the Author ity. Having regard to that proposal, 
the Author ity considered that certain use levels are safe (‘levels considered by the Author ity’). For the purpose of 
official controls along the food chain, certain labelling requirements should be provid ed for. In particular , where 
the use levels exceed the levels considered by the Author ity, it is appropr iate to require that the label of 
premixtures and the labelling of feed mater ials and compo und feed containing the substances concer ned include 
certain information including referen ce to the levels considered by the Author ity. 23.2.2018 L 53/87 Official Jour nal of the European Union EN     
(1)OJ L 268, 18.10.2003, p. 29. 
(2)Council Directive 70/524/EEC of 23 November 1970 concer ning additives in feedingstuffs (OJ L 270, 14.12.1970, p. 1). 
(3)EFSA Journal 2016;14(6):4475. (8)  The fact that the use of the substances concer ned in water for drinking is not author ised does not preclude their 
use in compo und feed which is administ ered via water . 
(9) Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the modifi cations to the conditions of author is­
ation for the substances concer ned, it is appropr iate to allow a transitional period for inter ested parties to 
prepare themselves to meet the new requirements resulting from the author isation. 
(10)  The measures provi ded for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on 
Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGUL ATION: 
Article 1 
Author isation 
The substances specifi ed in the Annex, belonging to the additive catego ry ‘sensor y additives ’ and to the functional group 
‘flavouri ng compounds’, are author ised as feed additives in animal nutr ition subject to the conditions laid down in that 
Annex. 
Article 2 
Transitional measures 
1. The substances specifi ed in the Annex and premixtures containing those substances, whic h are produced and 
labelled before 15 Sept ember 2018 in accordance with the rules applicable before 15 March 2018 may continue to be 
placed on the mark et and used until the existing stoc ks are exhausted. 
2. Feed mat erials and compo und feed containing the substances as specified in the Annex which are produced and 
labelled before 15 March 2019 in accordance with the rules applicable before 15 March 2018 may continue to be 
placed on the mark et and used until the existing stoc ks are exhausted if they are intende d for food-producing animals. 
3. Feed mat erials and compo und feed containing the substances as specified in the Annex which are produced and 
labelled before 15 March 2020 in accordance with the rules applicable before 15 March 2018 may continue to be 
placed on the mark et and used until the existing stocks are exhaust ed if they are intende d for non-f ood-producing 
animals.

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day followi ng that of its publication in the Official Journal of the 
European Union.
