Member States shall ensure that all appropriate risk mitigation measures are applied. Particular attention must be paid to the protection of: aquatic organisms. Where relevant, an appropriate distance must be kept between treated areas and surface water bodies. This distance may depend on the application or not of drift reducing techniques or devices, birds and mammals. Conditions of authorisation shall include risk mitigation measures, such as a judicious timing of the application and the selection of those formulations which, as a result of their physical presentation or the presence of agents that ensure an adequate avoidance, minimise the exposure of the concerned species, consumers, the acute dietary exposure of which must be controlled, groundwater, when the active substance is applied in regions with vulnerable soil and/or climatic conditions. Conditions of authorisation shall include risk mitigation measures, operators, who must wear suitable protective clothing, in particular gloves, coveralls, rubber boots and face protection or safety glasses during mixing, loading, application and cleaning of equipment, unless the exposure to the substance is adequately precluded by the design and construction of the equipment itself or by the mounting of specific protective components on such equipment, workers, who must wear suitable protective clothing, in particular gloves, if they must enter a treated area before the specific re-entry period has expired. PART B For the implementation of the uniform principles of Annex VI, the conclusions of the review report on procymidone, and in particular Appendices I and II thereof, shall be taken into account. Member States must ensure that the authorisation holders report at the latest on 31 December of each year on incidences of operator health problems. Member States may require that elements, such as sales data and a survey of use patterns, are provided so that a realistic picture of the use conditions and the possible toxicological impact of procymidone can be obtained. Member States shall request the submission of further confirmatory data and information to prove the acceptability of the active substance when applied in situations where there is a likelihood of long term exposure of wild mammals, and on the sewage treatment applied in the case of greenhouse applications. Member States shall request the submission of further studies to address the potential endocrine disrupting properties of procymidone within two years after the adoption of the Test Guidelines on endocrine disruption by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). They shall ensure that the notifier at whose request procymidone has been included in this Annex provide such studies to the Commission within two years of the adoption of the above test guidelines.’

PART A

Only uses as fungicide on the following crops may be authorised:

cucumbers in greenhouses (closed hydroponic systems),
plums (for processing).

at rates not exceeding

[F10,75 kg active substance per hectare per application.]

The following uses must not be authorised:

air application,
knapsack and hand-held applications neither by amateur nor by professional users,
home gardening.

Member States shall ensure that all appropriate risk mitigation measures are applied. Particular attention must be paid to the protection of:

aquatic organisms. Where relevant, an appropriate distance must be kept between treated areas and surface water bodies. This distance may depend on the application or not of drift reducing techniques or devices,
birds and mammals. Conditions of authorisation shall include risk mitigation measures, such as a judicious timing of the application and the selection of those formulations which, as a result of their physical presentation or the presence of agents that ensure an adequate avoidance, minimise the exposure of the concerned species,
consumers, the acute dietary exposure of which must be controlled,
groundwater, when the active substance is applied in regions with vulnerable soil and/or climatic conditions. Conditions of authorisation shall include risk mitigation measures,
operators, who must wear suitable protective clothing, in particular gloves, coveralls, rubber boots and face protection or safety glasses during mixing, loading, application and cleaning of equipment, unless the exposure to the substance is adequately precluded by the design and construction of the equipment itself or by the mounting of specific protective components on such equipment,
workers, who must wear suitable protective clothing, in particular gloves, if they must enter a treated area before the specific re-entry period has expired.

PART B

For the implementation of the uniform principles of Annex VI, the conclusions of the review report on procymidone, and in particular Appendices I and II thereof, shall be taken into account.

Member States must ensure that the authorisation holders report at the latest on 31 December of each year on incidences of operator health problems. Member States may require that elements, such as sales data and a survey of use patterns, are provided so that a realistic picture of the use conditions and the possible toxicological impact of procymidone can be obtained.

Member States shall request the submission of further confirmatory data and information to prove the acceptability of the active substance when applied in situations where there is a likelihood of long term exposure of wild mammals, and on the sewage treatment applied in the case of greenhouse applications.

Member States shall request the submission of further studies to address the potential endocrine disrupting properties of procymidone within two years after the adoption of the Test Guidelines on endocrine disruption by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). They shall ensure that the notifier at whose request procymidone has been included in this Annex provide such studies to the Commission within two years of the adoption of the above test guidelines.’
