Abstract

Abstract: The conclusions of the EFSA following the peer review of the initial risk assessments carried out by the competent authorities of the rapporteur Member State Estonia and co‐rapporteur Member State, France, for the pesticide active substance Phlebiopsis gigantea strains VRA 1835, VRA 1984 and FOC PG 410.3 are reported. The context of the peer review was that required by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 844/2012, as amended by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 2018/1659. The conclusions were reached on the basis of the evaluation of the representative use of Phlebiopsis gigantea strains VRA 1835, VRA 1984 and FOC PG 410.3 as a fungicide (field use) on conifer forests: pine, spruce, larch. The reliable end points, appropriate for use in regulatory risk assessment, are presented. Missing information identified as being required by the regulatory framework is listed. Concerns are identified.
