Whereas:
(1) The Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011(2) lists active substances approved or deemed to have been approved under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009.
(2) For the active substances Adoxophyes oranagranulovirus, L-ascorbic acid, Bacillus firmusI-1582, Bacillus pumilusQST 2808, bispyribac, chromafenozide, dodemorph, fenpyrazamine, flubendiamide, flumetralin, gamma-cyhalothrin, meptyldinocap, metaflumizone, penflufen, plant oils/citronella oil, pyridalyl, spinetoram, spiromesifen, spirotetramat and Zucchini Yellow Mosaic Virus โ weak strain, which are currently listed in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011, applications for renewal were either not submitted or were submitted but withdrawn and following the expiry of their respective approval periods, they are no longer approved or deemed to have been approved. Therefore, these active substances should be deleted from the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 for the sake of clarity and transparency.
(3) Strains T11 and IMI 206040 of Trichoderma atroviride(formerly T. harzianum) are listed together as a single entry in Part A of the the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011. For strain IMI 206040 an application for renewal was not submitted and following the expiry of its approval period, it is no longer deemed to have been approved. Therefore, this strain should be deleted from the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 for the sake of clarity and transparency.
(4) Capric acid, caprylic acid, fatty acids C7-C18 and C18 unsaturated potassium salts, fatty acids C8-C10 Me esters (methyl decanoate and methyl octanoate), lauric acid, oleic acid and pelargonic acid are listed together as a single entry in Part A of the the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011. For fatty acids C8-C10 Me esters (methyl decanoate and methyl octanoate), lauric acid and oleic acid applications for renewal were not submitted and following the expiry of their respective approval periods, they are no longer deemed to have been approved.
Therefore, these active substances should be deleted from the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 for the sake of clarity and transparency.
(5) Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(6) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed,
