Modification of the existing maximum residue levels for triclopyr in animal commodities

In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, the applicant Corteva Agriscience International Sàrl submitted a request to the competent national authority in the Netherlands to modify the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the active substance triclopyr in animal commodities. The data submitted in support the request were found to be sufficient to derive MRL proposals for swine and ruminant edible commodities and for ruminant milks considering residue levels expected for the intended uses on grassland. Adequate analytical methods for enforcement are available to control the residues of triclopyr on the commodities under consideration at the validated limit of analytical quantification (LOQ) of 0.01 mg/kg. Based on the risk assessment results, EFSA concluded that the short‐term and long‐term intake of residues resulting from the uses of triclopyr according to the reported agricultural practices and the derived MRLs in products of animal origin is unlikely to present a risk to consumer health. The consumer risk assessment is indicative pending the submission of the confirmatory data requested under the MRL review.
