COMMISSION REGUL ATION (EU) 2016/1866 
of 17 Oct ober 2016 
amending Annex es II, III and V to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of 
the Council as regards maximum residue levels for 3-decen-2-one, acibenzolar -S-methyl and 
hexac hlorobenzene in or on certain products 
(Text with EEA relevance) 
THE EUR OPEAN COMMISSION, 
Having regar d 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 Febr uary 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 16(1)(a), Article 17 and Article 49(2) thereof, 
Whereas: 
(1)  For acibenzolar -S-meth yl, maximum residue limits (MRLs) were set in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. 
For hexac hlorobenzene, MRLs were set in Annex II and Part B of Annex III to that Regulation. For 3-decen-2- 
one, no specific MRLs were set nor was that substance included in Annex IV to that Regulation, so the default 
value of 0,01 mg/kg laid down in Article 18(1)(b) thereof applies. 
(2)  In the context of a procedure for the author isation of the use of a plant protection product containing the active 
substance 3-decen-2-one on potatoes , an application was submitted in accordance with Article 6(1) of Regulation 
(EC) No 396/2005 for the inclusion of that active substance in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. 
(3)  In accordance with Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, that application was evaluated by the Member 
State concer ned and the evaluation repor t was forwarded to the Commission. 
(4)  The European Food Safety Author ity, hereinaf ter ‘the Authority’, assessed the application and the evaluation 
repor t, examining in particular the risks to the consumer and, where relevant, to animals and issued a conclusion 
on the proposal for inclusion of the active substance in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 (2). It 
forwarded that conclusion to the Commission and the Member States and made it available to the public. 
(5)  In its conclusion, the Author ity concluded that the available information is insuffi cient to establish on whether 
use of 3-decen-2-one as an active substance in plant protect ion products will have no immediat e or dela yed 
harmful effects on human health, including that of vulnerable groups, through dietar y intak es. It is theref ore not 
appropr iate to include the substance in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 and the MRLs should be set at 
the relevant limit of deter mination (LOD). The Commission consult ed the European Union referen ce laboratori es 
on the appropr iate LODs. 
(6)  For acibenzolar -S-methyl, the Author ity submitted a conclusion on the peer review of the pesticide risk 
assessment of the active substance (3). In that framew ork, it recommended increasing the MRL for the group of 
pome fruits to 0,2 mg/kg. Based on the new toxicological referen ce values, it recommended lowering the existing 
MRL for tomat oes to 0,3 mg/kg. 
(7)  For hexachlor obenzene, all existing author isations for plant prot ection products containing that active substance 
have been revok ed. In accordance with Article 17 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 in conjunction with 
Article 14(1)(a) thereof the MRLs set out for those active substances in Annexes II and III should theref ore 21.10.2016 L 286/4 Official Jour nal of the European Union EN

Conclusion on the peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of the active substance (3E)-3-decen-2-one (applied for as 3-decen-2-one). 
EFSA Journal 2015;13(1):3932 [43 pp.]. 
(3)Conclusion on the peer review of the pesticide risk assessment of the active substance acibenzolar -S-methyl. EFSA Journal 
2014;12(8):3691 [74 pp.]. be delet ed. Recent monit oring data show that residues occur on pumpkin seeds at a level higher than the 
LOD (1). Residues of hexac hlorobenzene are resulting from envi ronmental contamination in soil, due to the use 
of this persist ent compound in the past. The existing MRL of 0,05 mg/kg for pumpkin seeds adequate ly addresses 
the occur rence of hexachlorobenzene in that product. The MRL will be reviewed; the review will take into 
account the information available within 10 years from the publication of this Regulation. For products of 
animal origin, monitori ng data show that lower values than the LOD should be set in muscle and milk from all 
species. 
(8)  Based on the conclusions of the Auth ority and taking into account the factors relevant to the matte r under 
consideration, the appropr iate modific ations to the MRLs fulfil the requirements of Article 14(2) of Regulation 
(EC) No 396/2005. 
(9)  Through the World Trade Organisation, the trading partners of the Union were consulted on the new MRLs and 
their comments have been take n into account. 
(10)  Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 should theref ore be amended according ly. 
(11)  In order to allow for the normal marketing, processing and consum ption of products, this Regulation should 
provide for a transitional arrangement for products whic h have been produced before the modification of the 
MRLs made by this Regulation and for which information shows that a high level of consumer prote ction is 
maintained. 
(12)  A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before the modifi ed MRLs become applicable in order to permit 
Member States, third countr ies and food business operators to prepare themselves to meet the new requirements 
whic h will result from the modifi cation of the MRLs. 
(13)  The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committ ee on 
Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
