Commission Regulation (EU) No 575/2011of 16 June 2011on the Catalogue of feed materials(Text with EEA relevance) THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 767/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 on the placing on the market and use of feed, amending European Parliament and Council Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 and repealing Council Directive 79/373/EEC, Commission Directive 80/511/EEC, Council Directives 82/471/EEC, 83/228/EEC, 93/74/EEC, 93/113/EC and 96/25/EC and Commission Decision 2004/217/ECOJ L 229, 1.9.2009, p. 1., and in particular Article 26(2) and (3) thereof,Whereas:(1)Commission Regulation (EU) No 242/2010 of 19 March 2010 creating the Catalogue of feed materialsOJ L 77, 24.3.2010, p. 17. established the first version of the Catalogue of feed materials. It consists of the list of feed materials already listed in Part B of the Annex to Directive 96/25/EC and columns 2, 3 and 4 of the Annex to Directive 82/471/EEC and of a glossary taking over point IV of Part A of the Annex to Directive 96/25/EC.(2)The appropriate representatives of the European feed business sectors have, in consultation with other concerned parties, in collaboration with the competent national authorities and taking into account relevant experience from opinions issued by the European Food Safety Authority and scientific or technological developments, developed amendments to Regulation (EU) No 242/2010. These amendments concern new entries and improvements of existing entries.(3)The Commission has assessed the submitted amendments, verified that the procedure and conditions foreseen in Article 26 of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009 has been followed and are fulfilled and agrees to the amendments as modified during the assessment.(4)Given the very high number of amendments to be made to Regulation (EU) No 242/2010, it is appropriate, for reasons of coherence, clarity and simplification, to repeal and replace that Regulation.(5)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1The Catalogue of feed materials referred to in Article 24 of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009 is established, as set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2Regulation (EU) No 242/2010 is repealed.References to the repealed Regulation shall be construed as references to this Regulation.
Article 3This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.Done at Brussels, 16 June 2011.For the CommissionThe PresidentJosé Manuel BarrosoANNEXCATALOGUE OF FEED MATERIALSPART AGeneral provisions(1)The use of this Catalogue by the feed business operators shall be voluntary. However, the name of a feed material listed in Part C may be used only for a feed material complying with the requirements of the entry concerned.(2)All entries in the list of feed materials in Part C shall comply with the restrictions on the use of feed materials in accordance with the relevant legislation of the Union. Feed business operators using a feed material entered in the Catalogue shall ensure that it complies with Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009.(3)In accordance with good practice as referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 183/2005, feed materials shall be free from chemical impurities resulting from their manufacturing process and from processing aids, unless a specific maximum content is fixed in the Catalogue.(4)The botanical purity of a feed material shall not be less than 95 %. However, botanical impurities such as residues of other oil seeds or oil fruits derived from a previous manufacturing process shall not exceed 0,5 % for each type of oil seed or fruit. Derogating from these general rules a specific level shall be set in the list of feed materials in Part C.(5)The common name/qualifier of one or more of the processes, as listed in the last column of the glossary of processes in Part B, may be added to the name of the feed material to indicate that it has undergone the respective process or processes.(6)If the manufacturing process for a feed material differs from the description of the process concerned, as set out in the glossary of processes in Part B, the manufacturing process shall be set out in the description of the feed material concerned.(7)For a number of feed materials, synonyms may be used. Such synonyms are included in square brackets in the column "name" of the entry for the feed material concerned in the list of feed materials in Part C.(8)In the description of the feed materials in the list of feed materials in Part C, the word "product" is used instead of the word "by-product" to reflect the market situation and the language used in practice by feed business operators to highlight the commercial value of feed materials.(9)The botanical name of a plant is only given in the description of the first entry in the list of feed materials in Part C concerning that plant.(10)The underlying principle for the compulsory labelling of analytical constituents of a certain feed material in the Catalogue is, whether a certain product contains high concentrations of a specific constituent, or the manufacturing process has changed the nutritional characteristics of the product.(11)Article 15(g) of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009 in conjunction with point 6 of Annex I to that Regulation lays down labelling requirements as regards the moisture content. Article 16(1)(b) of that Regulation in conjunction with its Annex V lays down labelling requirements as regards other analytical constituents. In addition, point 5 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 767/2009 requires the declaration of the level of ash insoluble in hydrochloric acid if it exceeds 2,2 % in general or for certain feed material if it exceeds the level set in the relevant section of Annex V to that Regulation. However, some entries in the list of feed materials in Part C deviate from those rules as follows:(a)Compulsory declarations regarding analytical constituents in the list of feed materials in Part C replace the compulsory declarations as set out in the relevant section of Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 767/2009.(b)If the column relating to compulsory declarations in the list of feed materials in Part C is left blank with respect to the analytical constituents that would have to be declared in accordance with the relevant section of Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 767/2009, none of those constituents need be labelled. For ash insoluble in hydrochloric acid, however, where no level is set in the list of feed materials in Part C, the level shall be declared if it exceeds 2,2 %.(c)Where one or more specific moisture levels are set in the column "compulsory declarations" of the list of feed materials in Part C, those levels shall apply instead of the levels in point 6 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 767/2009. However, if the moisture content is below 14 % its declaration is not compulsory. Where no specific moisture level is set in that column, point 6 of Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 767/2009 shall apply.(12)"Technical grade" means that a substance is produced in a controlled chemical or physical process fulfilling the relevant requirements in accordance with the feed law of the Union.(13)A feed business operator, who claims a feed material has more properties than those specified in the column "description" of the list of feed materials in Part C, has to comply with Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009. Furthermore, feed materials may meet a particular nutritional purpose in accordance with Articles 9 and 10 of Regulation (EC) No 767/2009.PART BGlossary of processes
