COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 772/2013

of 8 August 2013

amending Annexes II, III and V to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for diphenylamine 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 Articles 14(1)(a) and 18(1)(b) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | For diphenylamine maximum residue levels (MRLs) were set in Annex II and Part B of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. Diphenylamine was the subject of Commission Decision 2009/859/EC of 30 November 2009 concerning the non-inclusion of diphenylamine in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC and the withdrawal of authorisations for plant protection products containing that substance (2) and it is the subject of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 578/2012 of 29 June 2012 concerning the non-approval of the active substance diphenylamine, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (3). |
| --- | --- |

(1)

For diphenylamine maximum residue levels (MRLs) were set in Annex II and Part B of Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. Diphenylamine was the subject of Commission Decision 2009/859/EC of 30 November 2009 concerning the non-inclusion of diphenylamine in Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC and the withdrawal of authorisations for plant protection products containing that substance (2) and it is the subject of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 578/2012 of 29 June 2012 concerning the non-approval of the active substance diphenylamine, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (3).

| (2) | The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) gave a reasoned opinion on the existing MRLs for diphenylamine pursuant to Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 on 22 August 2011 (4), examining in particular the risks to the consumer. That opinion has been forwarded to the Commission and the Member States and was made available to the public. |

The European Food Safety Authority (‘the Authority’) gave a reasoned opinion on the existing MRLs for diphenylamine pursuant to Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 on 22 August 2011 (4), examining in particular the risks to the consumer. That opinion has been forwarded to the Commission and the Member States and was made available to the public.

| (3) | In that opinion the Authority recommends neither the inclusion of diphenylamine in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 nor the inclusion of the CXLs in Annex II to that Regulation. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

In that opinion the Authority recommends neither the inclusion of diphenylamine in Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 nor the inclusion of the CXLs in Annex II to that Regulation.

| (4) | All existing authorisations for plant protection products containing diphenylamine have been revoked. The MRLs set out for this active substance in Annexes II and III should therefore be deleted, except for apples and pears. |
| --- | --- |

(4)

All existing authorisations for plant protection products containing diphenylamine have been revoked. The MRLs set out for this active substance in Annexes II and III should therefore be deleted, except for apples and pears.

| (5) | As regards diphenylamine in apples and pears, Member States, third countries and food business operators informed the Commission of an unavoidable cross-contamination that affects untreated apples and pears and which is due to the presence of residues of diphenylamine in storage facilities, in particular machinery, surfaces and containers with particular regard to bins, and that is technically not feasible to completely remove at this stage. |
| --- | --- |

(5)

As regards diphenylamine in apples and pears, Member States, third countries and food business operators informed the Commission of an unavoidable cross-contamination that affects untreated apples and pears and which is due to the presence of residues of diphenylamine in storage facilities, in particular machinery, surfaces and containers with particular regard to bins, and that is technically not feasible to completely remove at this stage.

| (6) | Based on the monitoring data received on the cross-contamination, it is appropriate to set a temporary MRL as low as possible, given the consumer concerns raised by diphenylamine, and that would still allow the normal marketing and trade of untreated apples and pears. |
| --- | --- |

(6)

Based on the monitoring data received on the cross-contamination, it is appropriate to set a temporary MRL as low as possible, given the consumer concerns raised by diphenylamine, and that would still allow the normal marketing and trade of untreated apples and pears.

| (7) | Although no final consumer risk assessment can be performed at this stage due to several data gaps identified by the Authority on the diphenylamine dossier, it can be reasonably expected that a temporary MRL of 0,1 mg/kg, which is 50 times lower than the current MRL of 5 mg/kg, should not pose any unacceptable risk to consumers. |

Although no final consumer risk assessment can be performed at this stage due to several data gaps identified by the Authority on the diphenylamine dossier, it can be reasonably expected that a temporary MRL of 0,1 mg/kg, which is 50 times lower than the current MRL of 5 mg/kg, should not pose any unacceptable risk to consumers.

| (8) | Pursuant to Article 16(2) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the Commission will review the situation within two years from the date of entry into force of the present Regulation based on any new monitoring data and other new elements that would become available. |

(9)

Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 should therefore be amended accordingly.

| (10) | 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. |
| --- | --- |

(10)

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.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 773/2013

of 12 August 2013

establishing a derogation from Council Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 as regards the minimum distance from coast and the minimum sea depth for boat seines fishing for transparent goby (Aphia minuta) in certain territorial waters of Spain (Murcia)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 of 21 December 2006 concerning management measures for the sustainable exploitation of fishery resources in the Mediterranean Sea (1), and in particular Article 13(5) thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Article 13(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 prohibits the use of towed gears within 3 nautical miles of the coast or within the 50 m isobath where that depth is reached at a shorter distance from the coast. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

Article 13(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 prohibits the use of towed gears within 3 nautical miles of the coast or within the 50 m isobath where that depth is reached at a shorter distance from the coast.

| (2) | At the request of a Member State, the Commission may allow a derogation from Article 13(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006, provided that a number of conditions set out in Article 13(5) and (9) are fulfilled. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

At the request of a Member State, the Commission may allow a derogation from Article 13(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006, provided that a number of conditions set out in Article 13(5) and (9) are fulfilled.

| (3) | On 17 April 2012 the Commission received a request for derogation from Spain to Article 13(1) of that Regulation, for the use of boat seines fishing for Transparent goby (Aphia minuta), within its territorial waters in the Autonomous Community of Murcia. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

On 17 April 2012 the Commission received a request for derogation from Spain to Article 13(1) of that Regulation, for the use of boat seines fishing for Transparent goby (Aphia minuta), within its territorial waters in the Autonomous Community of Murcia.

| (4) | The request covers vessels registered in the Operational Fleet Official Census managed by the Directorate-General for Livestock and Fisheries of the Autonomous Community of Murcia which have a track record in the fishery of more than five years and will operate under a management plan regulating boat seines fishing for transparent goby (Aphia minuta). |
| --- | --- |

(4)

The request covers vessels registered in the Operational Fleet Official Census managed by the Directorate-General for Livestock and Fisheries of the Autonomous Community of Murcia which have a track record in the fishery of more than five years and will operate under a management plan regulating boat seines fishing for transparent goby (Aphia minuta).

| (5) | The management plan guarantees no future increase in the fishing effort, foreseeing that whenever one of the 29 authorised vessels stops the activity only a vessel with an equal or minor capacity in terms of power and length will be able to replace it in the Census. |
| --- | --- |

(5)

The management plan guarantees no future increase in the fishing effort, foreseeing that whenever one of the 29 authorised vessels stops the activity only a vessel with an equal or minor capacity in terms of power and length will be able to replace it in the Census.

(6)

The Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF) assessed the derogation requested by Spain and the related draft management plan at its plenary session held from 5 to 9 November 2012.

| (7) | Spain has adopted the management plan by approving the ‘Order of 27 March 2013, of the regional Ministry for Agriculture and Water regulating the fishery of Transparent goby (Aphia minuta) in the internal waters of the region of Murcia’ (2) in accordance with Article 19(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006. |

| (8) | The derogation requested by Spain complies with the conditions set out in Article 13(5) and (9) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006. |
| --- | --- |

(8)

The derogation requested by Spain complies with the conditions set out in Article 13(5) and (9) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006.

| (9) | In particular, given both the limited size of the continental shelf and the spatial distribution of the target species, which is exclusively limited to certain zones in the coastal areas at depths of less than 50 meters, the fishing grounds are limited. |
| --- | --- |

(9)

In particular, given both the limited size of the continental shelf and the spatial distribution of the target species, which is exclusively limited to certain zones in the coastal areas at depths of less than 50 meters, the fishing grounds are limited.

| (10) | Moreover, the fishery cannot be undertaken with other gears, has no significant impact on protected habitats and is very selective, since the seines are hauled in the water column and do not touch the seabed. Indeed collection of material from the seabed would damage the target species and make the selection of the fished species virtually impossible due to their very small size. |

| (11) | The derogation requested by Spain affects a limited number of vessels, since only 29 vessels are involved. |
| --- | --- |

(11)

The derogation requested by Spain affects a limited number of vessels, since only 29 vessels are involved.

| (12) | The fishing activities concerned fulfil the requirements of the second subparagraph of Article 4(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 concerning protected habitats which, by way of derogation, allows fishing above those habitats if fishing is operated without touching the seagrass bed under certain conditions. |
| --- | --- |

(12)

The fishing activities concerned fulfil the requirements of the second subparagraph of Article 4(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 concerning protected habitats which, by way of derogation, allows fishing above those habitats if fishing is operated without touching the seagrass bed under certain conditions.

| (13) | The requirements of Article 8(1)(h) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 are not applicable since they relate to trawlers. |
| --- | --- |

(13)

The requirements of Article 8(1)(h) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 are not applicable since they relate to trawlers.

| (14) | Since the fishing activities concerned are highly selective, have a negligible effect on the environment and are not affected by provisions in Article 4(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006, they are eligible for the derogation to the minimum mesh size referred to in Article 9(7) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006. Therefore, the minimum mesh size rules set by Article 9(3) do not apply. |

Therefore, the minimum mesh size rules set by Article 9(3) do not apply.

| (15) | The Spanish management plan includes measures for the monitoring of fishing activities, thus fulfilling the conditions set out in Article 13(9) of Regulation (EC) No 1967/2006 and in Article 14 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 (3). |
