ANNEX

The column ‘Specific provisions’ of row 268, tebuconazole, of Part A of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011, is replaced by the following:
'
PART A Only uses as fungicide and plant growth regulator may be authorised.

PART B For the implementation of the uniform principles as referred to in Article 29(6) of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, the conclusions of the review report on tebuconazole, and in particular Appendices I and II thereof, as finalised in the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health on 28 October 2008 shall be taken into account. In this overall assessment Member States must pay particular attention to:

— the operator and worker safety and ensure that conditions of use prescribe the application of adequate personal protective equipment;
— the dietary exposure of consumers to the tebuconazole (triazole) metabolites;
— the potential for groundwater contamination, when the active substance is applied in regions with vulnerable soil or climatic conditions, in particular as regards the occurrence in groundwater of the metabolite 1,2,4-triazole;
— the protection of granivorous birds and mammals and herbivorous mammals and must ensure that the conditions of authorisation include, where appropriate, risk mitigation measures;
— the protection of aquatic organisms and must ensure that conditions of authorisation include risk mitigation measures such as buffer zones, where appropriate.
The Member States concerned shall ensure that the notifier submits to the Commission further information addressing the potential endocrine disrupting properties of tebuconazole within two years after the adoption of the OECD test guidelines on endocrine disruption or, alternatively, of Community agreed test guidelines.
