(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

(2)

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 76/895/EEC of 23
November 1976 relating to the fixing of maximum levels for
pesticide residues in and on fruit and vegetables (1), as last
amended by Commission Directive 2002/79/EC (2), and in
particular Article 5 thereof,

(3)

Having regard to Council Directive 86/362/EEC of 24 July
1986 on the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in
and on cereals (3), as last amended by Directive 2002/79/EC,
and in particular Article 10 thereof,

sulfosulfuron, cinidon-ethyl,

The new active substances fenhexamid, acibenzolar-S-
methyl, cyclanilide, pyraflufen-ethyl, iprovalicarb, prosul-
furon,
cyhalofop butyl,
famoxadone,
florasulam, metalaxyl-M, picolinafen and
flumioxazine were included in Annex I to Council Direc-
tive 91/414/EEC by Commission Directives 2001/28/
EC (12), 2001/87/EC (13), 2002/48/EC (14), 2002/64/EC (15)
and 2002/81/EC (16).

The inclusion in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC of the
active substances concerned was based on the assess-
ment of
the information submitted concerning the
proposed use. Information relating to this use has been
submitted by certain Member States in accordance with
Article 4(1)(f) of Directive 91/414/EEC. The information
available has been reviewed and is sufficient to allow
certain maximum residue levels (MRLs) to be fixed.

Having regard to Council Directive 86/363/EEC of 24 July
1986 on the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in
and on foodstuffs of animal origin (4), as last amended by Direc-
tive 2002/79/EC, and in particular Article 10 thereof,

(4) Where no Community MRL or provisional MRL exists,
Member States are to establish a national provisional
MRL in accordance with Article 4(1)(f) of Directive 91/
414/EEC before plant protection products containing
these active substances may be authorised.

Having regard to Council Directive 90/642/EEC of 27
November 1990 on fixing of maximum levels for pesticide resi-
dues in and on certain products of plant origin including fruit
and vegetables (5), as last amended by Commission Directive
2002/100/EC (6), and in particular Article 7 thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July
1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on
the market (7), as last amended by Commission Directive 2003/
39/EC (8), and in particular Article 4(1)(f) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

The existing active substances amitrole, diquat, isopro-
turon and ethofumesate, were included in Annex I to
Council Directive 91/414/EEC by Commission Directives
2001/21/EC (9), 2002/18/EC (10) and 2002/37/EC (11),
respectively.

For the active substances chlorfenapyr, fentin acetate and
fentin hydroxide decisions were taken not to include
them in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC by Commis-
sion Decision 2001/697/EC (17), 2002/478/EC (18) and
2002/479/EC (19), respectively. These Decisions provided
that plant protection products containing these active
substances shall no longer be authorised for use in the
Community. It is therefore necessary to add all of the
pesticide residues arising from use of these plant protec-
tion products to the Annexes to Directives 86/362/EEC,
86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC to allow for proper surveil-
lance and control of the prohibition of their uses and to
protect the consumer.

In order to allow legitimate expectations to be fulfilled
for existing stocks of pesticides to be used, the Commis-
sion non-inclusion Decisions allowed a phasing-out
period, and it is appropriate that MRLs premised on the
notion that use of
the substance concerned is not
authorised in the Community, should not apply until the
end of
the phasing-out period applying to that
substance.

Community MRLs and the levels recommended by the
Codex Alimentarius are fixed and evaluated following
similar procedures. There are a limited number of Codex
MRLs for diquat and fentin (-acetate or -hydroxide).
These have been considered in the setting of the MRLs
fixed in this Directive. Codex MRLs that will be recom-
mended for withdrawal in the near future were not taken
into account. The MRLs based on Codex MRLs having
been evaluated in the light of the risks for the consu-
mers, no risk was established when using the toxicolo-
gical end points based on the studies available to the
Commission.

(8) With respect

for

the

reports

assessment

to the inclusion in or exclusion from
Annex I
active
to Directive 91/414/EEC of
substances concerned, the related technical and scientific
evaluations were finalised in the form of Commission
review reports. The
the
substances mentioned were finalised on the dates as
mentioned in the Commission Directives cited under (1)
and (2) and in the Commission Decisions cited under
(5). These reports fixed the acceptable daily intake (ADI)
and, if necessary, the acute reference dose (ARfD) for the
substances concerned. The lifetime exposure of consu-
mers to food products treated with the active substance
concerned has been assessed and evaluated in accor-
dance with Community procedures. Account has also
been taken of guidelines published by the World Health
Organisation (1)
the Scientific
and the opinion of
Committee for Plants (2) on the methodology employed.
It is concluded that MRLs proposed will not lead to
those ADIs or ARfD being exceeded.

(9)

(10)

In order to ensure that
the consumer is adequately
protected from exposure to residues resulting from
unauthorised uses of plant protection products, provi-
sional MRLs should be set for the relevant product/pesti-
cide combinations at the lower limit of analytical deter-
mination.

The setting at Community level of such provisional
MRLs does not prevent the Member States from estab-
lishing provisional MRLs for the substances in this Direc-
tive in accordance with Article 4(1)(f) of Directive 91/
414/EEC and Annex VI thereto. It is considered that a
period of four years is sufficient to permit further uses
of the active substance concerned. The provisional MRL
should then become definitive.

the consumer. The Annexes to Directives 86/362/EEC,
86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC should therefore be
amended accordingly.

(12)

To establish maximum levels of pesticide residues for
diquat at Community level
it is necessary to transfer
provisions from Directive 76/895/EEC to Directives 86/
362/EEC, 86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC, delete these
provisions in Directive 76/895/EEC and amend some of
these provisions in the light of technical and scientific
progress as well as changes in uses and authorisations at
national and Community level.

(13)

This Directive is in accordance with the opinion of the
Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal
Health,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

Article 1

In Annex II to Directive 76/895/EEC the entries relating to
diquat shall be deleted.

Article 2

The maximum pesticide residue levels as shown in Annex I to
this Directive are added to Part A of Annex II to Directive 86/
362/EEC:

Article 3

The maximum pesticide residue levels as shown in Annex II
and III to this Directive are added to Annex II A and B to
Directive 86/363/EEC.

Article 4

The maximum pesticide residue levels as shown in Annex IV to
this Directive are added to Annex II to Directive 90/642/EEC.

(11)

It is therefore necessary to add all of the pesticide resi-
dues arising from use of these plant protection products
to the Annexes to Directives 86/362/EEC, 86/363/EEC
and 90/642/EEC to allow for proper surveillance and
control of the prohibition of their uses and to protect

Article 5

Member States shall bring into force the laws, regulations and
administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Direc-
tive by 30 June 2003 at the latest except for the provisions for
fentin hydroxide, fentin acetate and chlorfenapyr, which shall
be brought into force by 30 June 2004. They shall forthwith
inform the Commission thereof.

They shall apply these provisions with effect from 1 July 2003,
except for the provisions for fentin hydroxide, fentin acetate
and chlorfenapyr, which they shall apply by 1 July 2004.

will become definitive with effect from 14 July 2007.
In the case of foodstuffs with a fat content of 10 % or less by weight, the residue is related to the total weight of the boned foodstuff.
In such cases, the maximum level is one-tenth of the value related to fat content, but must be no less than 0,01 mg/kg.
In determining the residues in raw cow's milk and whole cream cow's milk, a fat content of 4 % by weight should be taken as a basis.
For raw milk and whole cream milk of another animal origin, the residues are expressed on the basis of the fat.
For the other foodstuffs listed in Annex I under CN codes 0401, 0402, 0405 00, and 0406:
— with a fat content of less than 2 % by weight, the maximum level is taken as half that set for raw milk and whole cream milk,
— with a fat content of 2 % or more by weight, the maximum level is expressed in mg/kg of fat. In such cases, the maximum level

is 25 times that set for raw milk and whole cream milk.

(3) For eggs and egg products with a fat content higher than 10 %, the maximum level is expressed in mg/kg fat. In this case, the

maximum level is 10 times higher than the maximum level for fresh eggs.

(4) Footnotes (1), (2) and (3) do not apply in cases where the lower limit of analytical determination is indicated.
