For the purposes of this entry, point (b) of Article 4(1) shall apply to concentrations of PFOS equal to or below 10 mg/kg (0,001 % by weight) where it is present in substances or in mixtures. 2. For the purposes of this entry, point (b) of Article 4(1) shall apply to concentrations of PFOS in semi-finished products or articles, or parts thereof, if the concentration of PFOS is lower than 0,1 % by weight calculated with reference to the mass of structurally or micro-structurally distinct parts that contain PFOS or, for textiles or other coated materials, if the amount of PFOS is lower than 1 μg/m2 of the coated material. 3. Use of articles already in use in the Union before 25 August 2010 containing PFOS shall be allowed. Article 4(2), third and fourth subparagraphs shall apply in relation to such articles. 4. If the quantity released into the environment is minimised, manufacturing and placing on the market is allowed for the following specific uses provided that Member States report to the Commission every four years on progress made to eliminate PFOS: mist suppressants for non-decorative hard chromium (VI) plating in closed loop systems. Where such a derogation concerns production or use in an installation within the scope of Directive 2008/1/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (4), the relevant best available techniques for the prevention and minimisation of emissions of PFOS described in the information published by the Commission pursuant to Article 17(2), second subparagraph, of Directive 2008/1/EC shall apply. As soon as new information on details of uses and safer alternative substances or technologies becomes available, the Commission shall review the derogation in the second subparagraph so that: (a) the uses of PFOS will be phased out as soon as the use of safer alternatives is technically and economically feasible; (b) a derogation can only be continued for essential uses for which safer alternatives do not exist and where the efforts undertaken to find safer alternatives have been reported on; (c) releases of PFOS into the environment have been minimised by applying best available techniques. 5. Once standards are adopted by the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) they shall be used as the analytical test methods for demonstrating the conformity of substances, mixtures and articles to points 1 and 2. Any other analytical method for which the user can prove equivalent performance could be used as an alternative to the CEN standards.
