COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2016/2289
of 16 December 2016
approving epsilon-Momfluorothrin as an active substance for use in biocidal products of product-type 18
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular Article 90(2) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
The United Kingdom received on 29 May 2013 an application, in accordance with Article 11(1) of Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (2), for the inclusion of the active substance epsilon-Momfluorothrin, in Annex I to that Directive for use in products of product-type 18, insecticides, acaricides and products to control other arthropods, as described in Annex V to that Directive, which correspond to product-type 18 as described in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. |
|
(2) |
The United Kingdom submitted the assessment report together with its recommendations on 6 October 2015 in accordance with Article 90(2) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. |
|
(3) |
The opinion of the European Chemicals Agency was formulated on 16 June 2016 by the Biocidal Products Committee, having regard to the conclusions of the evaluating competent authority. |
|
(4) |
According to that opinion, biocidal products of product-type 18 and containing epsilon-Momfluorothrin may be expected to satisfy the criteria of Article 19(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, provided that certain specifications and conditions concerning their use are complied with. |
|
(5) |
It is therefore appropriate to approve epsilon-Momfluorothrin for use in biocidal products of product-type 18, subject to compliance with certain specifications and conditions. |
|
(6) |
A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is approved in order to permit interested parties to take the preparatory measures necessary to meet the new requirements. |
|
(7) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
epsilon-Momfluorothrin is approved as an active substance for use in biocidal products of product-type 18, subject to the specifications and conditions set out in the Annex.
Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
