Summary |
These notified annexes to the draft Regulation set proposed maximum residue levels for fluopyram, hexachlorociclohexane (HCH), alpha-isomer, hexachlorociclohexane (HCH), beta-isomer, hexachlorociclohexane (HCH), sum of isomers, except the gamma isomer, lindane (hexachlorociclohexane (HCH), gammaisomer), nicotine and profenofos in or on certain products in Annex II and V to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005. MRLs for these substances in certain commodities are changed: either increased, lowered, or deleted. Higher MRLs are set to accommodate new uses in the European Union and in third countries which export those commodities to the European Union. Lower MRLs are set after updating the limit of determination and/or deleting old uses which are not authorized any more in the European Union or for which there is not enough data for an MRL to be set. Deleted MRLs for hexachlorociclohexane (HCH), sum of isomers, except the gamma isomer are replaced by specific MRLs for hexachlorociclohexane (HCH), alpha-isomer and hexachlorociclohexane (HCH) beta-isomer.
