COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGUL ATION (EU) 2017/65 
of 14 December 2016 
concer ning the author isation of 1-isoprop yl-4-methy lbenzene, pin-2(10)-ene, pin-2(3)-ene, beta- 
caryophy llene, camphene, 1-isopropenyl-4-meth ylbenzene, delt a-3-carene and d-limonene as feed 
additiv es for all animal species 
(Text with EEA relevance) 
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 provides 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 provides for the re- 
evaluation of additives author ised pursuant to Council Directive 70/524/EEC (2). 
(2)  1-Isoprop yl-4-meth ylbenzene, pin-2(10)-ene, pin-2(3)-ene, beta-car yophyllene, camphene, 1-isopropenyl -4- 
meth ylbenzene, delta-3-carene and d-limonene, were author ised without a time limit in accordance with Directive 
70/524/EEC as feed additives for all animal species. Those products were subsequently entered in the Register 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 1-isoprop yl-4-methylbenzene, pin-2(10)-ene, pin-2(3)-ene, 
beta-car yophyllene, camphene, 1-isopropenyl-4-meth ylbenzene, delta-3-carene and d-limonene as feed additives 
for all animal species. The applicant requeste d those additives to be classif ied in the additive categor y ‘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 Safe ty Author ity (‘the Author ity’) concluded in its opinions (3) of 10 March 2015 and of 1 
December 2015 that, under the proposed conditions of use in feed 1-isoprop yl-4-methylbenzene, pin-2(10)-ene, 
pin-2(3)-ene, beta-car yophy llene, camphe ne, 1-isopropenyl -4-methylbenzene, delta-3-carene and d-limonene do 
not have adverse effects on animal health, human health or the environment. The Auth ority further concluded 
that the function of 1-isoprop yl-4-meth ylbenzene, pin-2(10)-ene, pin-2(3)-ene, beta-car yophyllene, camph ene, 1- 
isopropen yl-4-methylbenzene, delta-3-carene and d-limonene in feed is similar to that on food. The Author ity 
has already concluded that for food 1-isoprop yl-4-methylbenzene, pin-2(10)-ene, pin-2(3)-ene, beta- 
caryophy llene, camphe ne, 1-isopropenyl -4-methylbenzene, delta-3-carene and d-limonene are efficacious, as it 
increases the food smell or palatability . The Author ity could not conclude on the safety of for pin-2(3)-ene, pin-2 
(10)-ene, delta-3-carene, beta-car yophy llene and camphe ne used in water for drinking. The Author ity concluded 
that for d-limonene, 1-isoprop yl-4-meth ylbenzene and 1-isopropenyl-4-meth ylbenzene the absence of margin of 
safety would not allow simultaneous administration in feed and water . However , those substances can be used 
within a compound feed subsequently administe red via water . 
(5)  Restr ictions and conditions should be provided for to allow better control. For practical reasons and taking into 
account the re-evaluation performe d by the Author ity, maximum recommended cont ents should be set up. 
Where the recommended conte nt of the additive in compl ete feedingstuff is exceed ed, the identif ication number 
of the feed additive, its name and added amount should be indicated on the label of premixtures, compo und 
feeds and feed mater ials. 17.1.2017 L 13/246 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 feed ingstuffs (OJ L 270, 14.12.1970, p. 1). 
(3)EFSA Journal 2015;13(3):4053 and EFSA Journal 2016;14(1):4339 (6)  The Author ity concluded that in the absence of data on user safety 1-Isoprop yl- 4-meth ylbenzene, pin-2(10)-ene, 
pin-2(3)-ene, beta-car yophy llene, camph ene, 1-isopropen yl-4-methylbenzene, delta-3-carene and d-limonene 
should be considered as irritant to skin, eyes and respirato ry tract and as a skin sensitiser . Consequently , 
appropr iate prote ctive measures should be taken. The Author ity does not consider that there is a need for 
specific requirements of post-market monitor ing. It also verified the repor t on the method of analysis of the feed 
additives in feed submitt ed by the Reference Laboratory set up by Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003. 
(7)  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. 
(8) Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the modifi cations to the conditions of author is­
ation for 1-isoprop yl- 4-meth ylbenzene, pin-2(10)-ene, pin-2(3)-ene, beta-car yophy llene, camphe ne, 1- 
isopropen yl-4-methylbenzene, delta-3-carene and d-limonene 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. 
(9)  The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committ ee on 
Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGUL ATION: 
Article 1
