Commission Directive 2009/88/EC
of 30 July 2009
amending Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council to include thiacloprid as an active substance in Annex I thereto
（Text with EEA relevance）
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 1998 concerning the placing of biocidal products on the market [1], and in particular Article 11（4） thereof,
Whereas:
（1） The United Kingdom （UK） has received on 20 February 2006 an application from Lanxess Deutschland GmbH, in accordance with Article 11（1） of Directive 98/8/EC, for the inclusion of the active substance thiacloprid in its Annex I or IA for use in product-type 8, wood preservatives, as defined in Annex V to Directive 98/8/EC. thiacloprid was not on the market on the date referred to in Article 34（1） of Directive 98/8/EC as an active substance of a biocidal product.
（2） After carrying out an evaluation, the UK submitted a competent authority report, together with a recommendation, to the Commission on 3 July 2007.
（3） The competent authority report was reviewed by the Member States and the Commission within the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products on 28 May 2008, and the findings of the review were incorporated in an assessment report.
（4） It appears from the examinations made that biocidal products used as wood preservatives and containing thiacloprid may be expected to satisfy the requirements laid down in Article 5 of Directive 98/8/EC. It is therefore appropriate to include thiacloprid in Annex I.
（5） However, unacceptable risks were identified for the in situ treatment of wooden structures near water, where direct losses to the aquatic compartment cannot be prevented. Therefore, authorisations for these uses should not be granted unless data have been submitted in order to demonstrate that the products can be used without unacceptable risks to the environment.
（6） Not all potential uses have been evaluated at the Community level. It is therefore appropriate that Member States assess those risks to the compartments and populations that have not been representatively addressed in the Community level risk assessment and, when granting product authorisations, ensure that appropriate measures are taken or specific conditions imposed in order to mitigate the identified risks to acceptable levels.
（7） In the light of the findings of the assessment report, it is appropriate to require that risk mitigation measures are applied at product authorisation level to products containing thiacloprid and used as wood preservatives to ensure that risks are reduced to an acceptable level in accordance with Article 5 of Directive 98/8/EC and Annex VI thereto. In particular, appropriate measures should be taken to protect the soil and aquatic compartments since unacceptable risks to these compartments have been identified during the evaluation. Products intended for industrial and/or professional use should be used with appropriate protective equipment if the risk identified for industrial and/or professional users cannot be reduced by other means.
（8） A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is included in Annex I in order to permit Member States to bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive.
（9） Directive 98/8/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
（10） The Standing Committee on Biocidal Products was consulted on 30 May 2008 and delivered a positive opinion on the draft Commission Directive amending Annex I to Directive 98/8/EC to include thiacloprid as an active substance. On 11 June 2008 the Commission submitted the said draft for scrutiny by the European Parliament and the Council. The European Parliament did not oppose the draft measures within the set deadline. The Council opposed the adoption by the Commission indicating that the proposed measures exceeded the implementing powers provided for in Directive 98/8/EC. As a consequence, the Commission did not adopt the draft measures and submitted an amended draft of the concerned Directive to the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products. The Standing Committee was consulted on the said draft on 20 February 2009.
（11） The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

ANNEX
The following entry "No 18" is inserted in Annex I to Directive 98/8/EC:
No | Common Name | IUPAC Name Identification Numbers | Minimum purity of the active substance in the biocidal product as placed on the market | Date of inclusion | Deadline for compliance with Article 16（3） （except for products containing more than one active substance, for which the deadline to comply with Article 16（3） shall be the one set out in the last of the inclusion decisions relating to its active substances） | Expiry date of inclusion | Product type | Specific provisions [1] |
"18 | Thiacloprid | （Z）-3-（6-chloro-3-pyridylmethyl）-1,3-thiazolidin-2-ylidenecyanamide EC No: n/a CAS No: 111988-49-9 | 975 g/kg | 1 January 2010 | n/a | 31 December 2019 | 8 | When assessing the application for authorisation of a product in accordance with Article 5 and Annex VI, Member States shall assess, when relevant for the particular product, the populations that may be exposed to the product and the use or exposure scenarios that have not been representatively addressed at the Community level risk assessment. When granting product authorisation, Member States shall assess the risks and subsequently ensure that appropriate measures are taken or specific conditions imposed in order to mitigate the identified risks. Product authorisation can only be granted where the application demonstrates that risks can be reduced to acceptable levels. Member States shall ensure that authorisations are subject to the following conditions: 1.In view of the assumptions made during the risk assessment, products authorised for industrial and/or professional use, must be used with appropriate personal protective equipment, unless it can be demonstrated in the application for product authorisation that risks to industrial and/or professional users can be reduced to an acceptable level by other means.2.In view of the risks identified for the soil and aquatic compartments appropriate risk mitigation measures must be taken to protect those compartments. In particular, labels and/or safety-data sheets of products authorised for industrial use shall indicate that freshly treated timber must be stored after treatment under shelter and/or on impermeable hard standing to prevent direct losses to soil or water and that any losses must be collected for reuse or disposal.3.Products shall not be authorised for the in situ treatment of wooden structures near water, where direct losses to the aquatic compartment cannot be prevented, or for wood that will be in contact with surface water, unless data have been submitted to demonstrate that the product will meet the requirements of Article 5 and Annex VI, if necessary by the application of appropriate risk mitigation measures." |
