THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

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(1), and in particular Article 10 thereof,

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(2), and in particular Article 10 thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 90/642/EEC of 27 November 1990 on the fixing of maximum levels for pesticide residues in and on certain products of plant origin, including fruit and vegetables(3), 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(4), and in particular Article 4(1)(f) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) In accordance with Directive 91/414/EEC, authorisations of plant protection products for use on specific crops are the responsibility of the Member States. Such authorisations have to be based on the evaluation of effects on human and animal health and influence on the environment. Elements to be taken into account in such evaluations include operator and bystander exposure and impact on the terrestrial, aquatic and aerial environments, as well as impact on humans and animals through consumption of residues on treated crops.

(2) Maximum residue levels (MRLs) reflect the use of minimum quantities of pesticides to achieve effective protection of plants, applied in such a manner that the amount of residue is the smallest practicable and is toxicologically acceptable, in particular in terms of estimated dietary intake.

(3) MRLs for pesticides covered by Directive 90/642/EEC, 86/363/EEC and 86/362/EEC are to be kept under review and may be modified to take account of new or changed uses. Information about new or changed uses has been communicated to the Commission which should lead to changes in the residue levels of acephate, acetamiprid, acibenzolar-S-methyl, aldrin, benalaxyl, benomyl, carbendazim, chlormequat, chlorothalonil, chlorpyrifos, clofentezine, cyfluthrin, cypermethrin, cyromazine, dieldrin, dimethoate, dithiocarbamates, esfenvalerate, famoxadone, fenhexamid, fenitrothion, fenvalerate, glyphosate, indoxacarb, lambda-cyhalothrin, mepanipyrim, metalaxyl-M, methidation, methoxyfenozide, pymetrozine, pyraclostrobin, pyrimethanil, spiroxamine, thiacloprid, thiophanate-methyl and trifloxystrobin.

(4) The lifetime exposure of consumers to the pesticides referred to in this Directive via food products that may contain residues of those pesticides has been assessed and evaluated in accordance with the procedures and practices used within the Community, taking account of guidelines published by the World Health Organisation(5). Based on those assessments and evaluations, the MRLs for those pesticides should be set so as to ensure that the acceptable daily intake is not exceeded.

(5) An acute reference dose (ARfD) has been set for acephate, acetamiprid, carbendazim, chlormequat, chlorothalonil, chlorpyrifos, cyfluthrin, cypermethrin, cyromazine, dieldrin, dimethoate, esfenvalerate, famoxadone, fenitrothion, indoxacarb, lambda-cyhalothrin, mepanipyrim, metalaxyl-M, methidation, methoxyfenozide, pymetrozine, pyraclostrobin, thiacloprid, and thiophanate-methyl. The acute exposure of consumers via each of the food products that may contain residues of these pesticides has been assessed and evaluated in accordance with the procedures and practices currently used within the Community, taking account of guidelines published by the World Health Organisation. The opinions of the Scientific Committee on Plants (SCP), in particular advice and recommendations concerning the protection of consumers of food products treated with pesticides(6), have been taken into account. Based on the dietary intake assessment, the MRLs for those pesticides should be fixed so as to ensure that the ARfD will not be exceeded. In the case of the other substances, an assessment of the available information has shown that no ARfD is required and that therefore a short term assessment is not needed.

(6) Where authorised uses of plant protection products do not result in detectable levels of pesticide residues in or on the food product, or where there are no authorised uses, or where uses which have been authorised by Member States have not been supported by the necessary data, or where uses in third countries resulting in residues in or on food products which may enter into circulation in the Community market have not been supported with such necessary data, MRLs should be fixed at the lower limit of analytical determination.

(7) The setting or modification at Community level of provisional MRLs does not prevent the Member States from establishing provisional MRLs for acetamiprid, acibenzolar-S-methyl, famoxadone, fenamiphos, glyphosate, indoxacarb, mepanipyrim, methoxyfenozide, pymetrozine, pyraclostrobin, thiacloprid and trifloxystrobin in accordance with Article 4(1)(f) of Directive 91/414/EEC and Annex VI to that Directive. It is considered that a period of four years is sufficient to permit further uses of these substances. The provisional Community MRLs should then become definitive.

(8) It is therefore necessary to modify the MRLs set in Directives 86/362/EEC, 86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC, to allow proper surveillance and control of the uses of the plant protection products concerned and to protect the consumer. Where MRLs have already been defined in the Annexes to those Directives, it is appropriate to amend them. Where MRLs have not yet been defined, it is appropriate to set them for the first time.

(9) Through the World Trade Organisation, the Community’s trading partners have been consulted where necessary and their comments on these levels have been taken into account.

(10) Directives 86/362/EEC, 86/363/EEC and 90/642/EEC should therefore be amended accordingly.

(11) The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

^a Indicates lower limit of analytical determination.
^b The MRLs expressed as CS₂ can arise from different dithiocarbamates and therefore they do not reflect a single Good Agricultural Practice (GAP). It is therefore not appropriate to use these MRLs to check compliance with a GAP.
^c In brackets the origin of the residue (ma: maneb; mz: mancozeb; me: metiram; pr: propineb; t: thiram; z: ziram).
^d Fat soluble.
^e Based on background levels due to use of aldrin and dieldrin in the past.
^f Monitoring data show that levels up to 0,02 mg/kg of dieldrin can be found on pumpkin seed used for oil extraction.
^g Indicates that the maximum residue level has been established provisionally in accordance with Article 4(1)(f) of Directive 91/414/EEC.
