Draft Commission Regulation amending Annexes II, III and V to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene, chlormequat, metribuzin, metribuzin-desamino-diketo (metribuzin-DADK), terbuthylazine and triclopyr in or on certain products (Text with EEA relevance). |
| Summary |
The proposed draft Regulation concerns the review of existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene, chlormequat, metribuzin, metribuzin-desamino-diketo (metribuzin-DADK), terbuthylazine and triclopyr in certain food commodities following the monitoring data collected for 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene as requested by Commission Regulation (EU) 2022/1346 and for chlormequat as requested by Regulation (EU) 2022/1290 and Commission Regulation (EU) 2017/693; the non- availability of confirmatory data of terbuthylazine and triclopyr required by Commission Regulation (EU) 2021/1795 and by Commission Regulation (EU) 2018/686, respectively; and the non-approval of metribuzin in the European Union. MRLs for these substances in certain commodities are lowered or raised. Lower MRLs are set after deleting old uses which are not authorized any more in the European Union. The draft Regulation also proposes some product-specific limit of quantification (LOQ) adaptions in line with technical progress.
