Bensulfuron

CAS No 83055-99-6

CIPAC No 502.201

α-[(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-ylcarbamoyl)sulfamoyl]-o-toluic acid (bensulfuron)

methyl α-[(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-ylcarbamoyl)sulfamoyl]-o-toluate (bensulfuron-methyl)

≥ 975 g/kg1 November 200931 October 2019

PART A

Only uses as a herbicide

PART B

For the implementation of the uniform principles of Annex VI, the conclusions of the review report on bensulfuron, and in particular Appendices I and II thereof, as finalised in the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health on 8 December 2008 shall be taken into account.

In this overall assessment Member States must pay particular attention to the following:

  • the protection of aquatic organisms; in relation to these identified risks, risk mitigation measures, such as buffer zones, shall be applied where appropriate,

  • the protection of the groundwater, where the active substance is applied in regions with vulnerable soil and/or climatic conditions.

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

  • further studies on the specification,

  • information to further address the route and rate of degradation of bensulfuron-methyl under aerobic flooded soil conditions,

  • information to address the relevance of metabolites for the consumer risk assessment.

They shall ensure that the notifiers provide such studies to the Commission by 31 October 2011.

PART B

For the implementation of the uniform principles of Annex VI, the conclusions of the review report on sodium 5-nitroguaiacolate, sodium o-nitrophenolate and sodium p-nitrophenolate, and in particular Appendices I and II thereof, as finalised in the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health on 2 December 2008 shall be taken into account.

In this overall assessment Member States must pay particular attention to:

  • the specification of the technical material as commercially manufactured must be confirmed and supported by appropriate analytical data. The test material used in the toxicity dossiers should be compared and verified against this specification of the technical material,

  • the protection of the operators and workers safety. Authorised conditions of use must prescribe the application of adequate personal protective equipment and risk mitigation measures to reduce the exposure,

  • the protection of the groundwater, when the active substance is applied in regions with vulnerable soil and/or climatic conditions. Conditions of authorisation should include risk mitigation measures, where appropriate.

The Member States concerned shall request the submission of further studies to address the risk to groundwater. They shall ensure that the notifiers provide such studies to the Commission by 31 October 2011.
