PART A

Only uses as a post-harvest fungicide for indoor use may be authorised.

PART B

For the implementation of the uniform principles of Annex VI, the conclusions of the review report on 2-phenylphenol, and in particular Appendices I and II thereof, as finalised in the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health on 27 November 2009, as amended in the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health on 28 October 2010, shall be taken into account.

In this overall assessment Member States must pay particular attention:

  • to the protection of operators and workers and ensure that conditions of use prescribe the application of adequate personal protective equipment,

  • to put in place appropriate waste management practices to handle the waste solution remaining after application, including the cleaning water of the drenching and other application systems. Member States permitting the release of wastewater into the sewage system, shall ensure that a local risk assessment is carried out.

The Member States concerned shall ensure that the notifier submits to the Commission:

  • further information on the potential for skin depigmentation for workers and consumers due to possible exposure to the metabolite 2-phenylhydroquinone (PHQ) on citrus peel,

  • further information to confirm that the analytical method applied in residue trials correctly quantifies the residues of 2-phenylphenol, PHQ and their conjugates.

They shall ensure that the notifier provides such information to the Commission by 31 December 2011.

Furthermore, the Member States concerned shall ensure that the notifier submits to the Commission further information to confirm the residue levels occurring as a result of application techniques other than those in drench chambers.

They shall ensure that the notifier provides such information to the Commission by 31 December 2012.’
