The approval periods of those substances will expire on 30 April 2019 .

(3) The approval periods of the active substances benfluralin, fluazinam, flutolanil and mepiquat will expire on 28 February 2019 .

(4) The approval periods of the active substances abamectin, Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. Aizawai, Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israeliensis, Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki, Beauveria bassiana , Cydia pomonella Granulovirus (CpGV), epoxiconazole, fenpyroximate, Lecanicillium muscarium , Metarhizium anisopliae var.

(6) Due to the fact that the assessment of those substances has been delayed for reasons beyond the control of the applicants, the approval of those active substances are likely to expire before a decision on the renewal of the approval has been taken. It is therefore necessary to postpone the expiry of the approval periods.

(7) In view of the aim of the first paragraph of Article 17 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009, as regards cases where the Commission will adopt a Regulation providing that the approval of an active substance referred to in the Annex to this Regulation is not renewed because the approval criteria are not satisfied, the Commission will set the expiry date at the same date as before this Regulation or at the date of the entry into force of the Regulation providing that the approval of the active substance is not renewed, whichever date is later. As regards cases where the Commission will adopt a Regulation providing for the renewal of an active substance referred to in the Annex to this Regulation, the Commission will endeavour to set, as appropriate under the circumstances, the earliest possible application date.

(8) Taking into account that the approval periods of the active substances benfluralin, fluazinam, flutolanil and mepiquat expire on 28 February 2019 , this Regulation should enter into force as soon as possible.

(9) Implementing Regulation (EU) No 540/2011 should therefore be amended accordingly.

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union .
