Commission Directive 2010/55/EU of 20 August 2010 amending Annex I to Council Directive 91/414/EEC to renew the inclusion of azoxystrobin as active substance (Text with EEA relevance) (repealed) (c. 55)

ANNEXU.K.

In Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC, row No 2 is replaced by the following:

^a Further details on identity and specification of active substance are provided in the review report.

PART B For the implementation of the uniform principles of Annex VI, the conclusions of the review report on azoxystrobin and in particular Appendices I and II thereof, as finalised in the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health on 9 July 2010 shall be taken into account. In this overall assessment Member States must pay particular attention to: the specification of the technical material as commercially manufactured must be confirmed and supported by appropriate analytical data. The test material used in the toxicity dossiers should be compared and verified against this specification of the technical material, the potential for groundwater contamination, when the active substance is applied in regions with vulnerable soil and/or climatic conditions, the protection of aquatic organisms. The Member States must ensure that the conditions of authorisation include risk mitigation measures, where appropriate, such as buffer zones. The Member States concerned shall request the submission of further studies to finalise the risk assessment on groundwater and aquatic organisms. They shall ensure that the notifiers provide such studies to the Commission by 31 October 2012.’

Only uses as fungicide may be authorised.

PART B

For the implementation of the uniform principles of Annex VI, the conclusions of the review report on azoxystrobin and in particular Appendices I and II thereof, as finalised in the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health on 9 July 2010 shall be taken into account.

In this overall assessment Member States must pay particular attention to:

the specification of the technical material as commercially manufactured must be confirmed and supported by appropriate analytical data. The test material used in the toxicity dossiers should be compared and verified against this specification of the technical material,
the potential for groundwater contamination, when the active substance is applied in regions with vulnerable soil and/or climatic conditions,
the protection of aquatic organisms.

The Member States must ensure that the conditions of authorisation include risk mitigation measures, where appropriate, such as buffer zones.

The Member States concerned shall request the submission of further studies to finalise the risk assessment on groundwater and aquatic organisms. They shall ensure that the notifiers provide such studies to the Commission by 31 October 2012.’
