Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2022/2095 of 28 October 2022 establishing measures to prevent the introduction into, establishment and spread within the Union territory of Anoplophora chinensis (Forster) and repealing Decision 2012/138/EU
For the purposes of this Regulation, the following definitions apply:
(1)
‘specified pest’ means Anoplophora chinensis (Forster);
(2)
‘specified plants’ means plants for planting, that have a stem or root collar diameter of 1 cm or more at their thickest point, of Acer spp., Aesculus hippocastanum, Alnus spp., Betula spp., Carpinus spp., Citrus spp., Cornus spp., Corylus spp., Cotoneaste r spp., Crataegus spp., Fagus spp., Lagerstroemia spp., Malus spp., Melia spp., Ostrya spp., Photinia spp., Platanus spp., Populus spp., Prunus laurocerasus , Pyrus spp., Rosa spp., Salix spp., Ulmus spp. and Vaccinium corymbosum ;
(3)

(5)
‘sentinel plants’ means specified plants specifically planted to support the early detection of the specified pest and used for surveillance.
1. Competent authorities shall carry out annual risk-based surveys of the host plants in the areas of their territories where the specified pest is not known to occur for the presence of the specified pest.
The design and sampling scheme of those surveys shall allow to detect, within the Member State concerned, with a sufficient level of confidence, a low level of presence of infested plants. The surveys shall be based on the European Food Safety Authority’s (‘Authority’) General guidelines for statistically sound and risk-based surveys for plant pests.
2. The surveys shall be carried out:
(a)
on the basis of the level of the respective phytosanitary risk;
(b)
in open air, as well as in nurseries, garden centres, trading centres, natural and urban areas and other relevant sites as appropriate;
(c)
at appropriate times of the year with regard to the possibility to detect the specified pest, taking into account the biology of that pest, the presence and biology of host plants, and the scientific and technical information referred to in the Authority’s Pest Survey Card on Anoplophora chinensis ( 5 ) .
3. The surveys shall consist of:
(a)
visual examination of host plants; and
(b)
where appropriate, collection of samples and testing of plants for planting.
In order to complement visual examinations specifically trained sniffer dogs may be used, where appropriate.
1. Each Member State shall, in addition to the obligations provided for in Article 25 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031, establish a contingency plan setting out the actions to be taken in its territory concerning:
(a)
the eradication of the specified pest, as set out in Article 8;
(b)
the movements of specified plants within the Union territory, as set out in Article 10;
(c)
the official inspections to be carried out on movements of specified plants within the Union territory and of host plants into the Union territory, as set out in Articles 10 and 11;
(d)
the minimum resources to be made available and the procedures for making those additional resources available in case of a suspected or confirmed presence of the specified pest;
(e)
rules detailing the procedures for identifying the owners of the plants to be removed, notifying the order of removal and accessing private properties.
2. Member States shall update their contingency plans, as appropriate, by 31 December of each year.
1. Where the presence of the specified pest is officially confirmed, the Member State concerned shall without delay establish a demarcated area consisting of:
(a)
a zone including the infested plants and all specified plants which are liable to become infested within a 100 m radius around infested plants (‘infested zone’);
(b)
a buffer zone with a width of at least 2 km beyond the boundary of the infested zone.
2. The delimitation of the demarcated area shall be based on the scientific principles, the biology of the specified pest, the level of infestation, the particular distribution of the host plants in the area concerned and the evidence on the establishment of the specified pest.
3. For the purposes of taking eradication measures referred to in Article 8 and where the competent authority concludes that eradication of the specified pest is possible, taking into account the circumstances of the outbreak, such as its size and location, the level of infestation or the number and distribution of host plants, the width of the buffer zone may be reduced to not less than 1 km.
4. For the purposes of taking containment measures referred to in Article 9, the buffer zone shall be of a width of at least 4 km.
The width of the buffer zone may be reduced to not less than 2 km, taking into account the circumstances of the outbreak, such as its size and location, the level of infestation or the number and distribution of host plants.
5. Where the presence of the specified pest has been officially confirmed in the buffer zone of a demarcated area for containment, Articles 17 and 18 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031 shall apply.
1. By way of derogation from Article 5, the competent authorities may choose not to establish a demarcated area if the following conditions are fulfilled:
(a)
there is evidence that the specified pest has been introduced into the area with the plants on which it was found and those plants were infested before their introduction into the area concerned, or it is an isolated finding, not expected to lead to establishment; and
(b)
it is ascertained that there is no establishment of the specified pest and the spread and successful breeding of the specified pest is not possible due to its biology, based on the results of a specific investigation and eradication measures taken.
2. Where the competent authority uses the derogation provided for in paragraph 1, it shall:
(a)
immediately take measures to ensure the prompt eradication of the specified pest and to exclude the possibility of its spread;
(b)
during at least one life cycle of the specified pest plus one additional year, and at least four consecutive years, monitor a width of at least 1 km around the infested plants or the place where the specified pest was found, regularly and intensively at least during the first year;
(c)
destruct any infested plant material;
(d)
trace back the origin of the infestation and the plants associated with the infestation as far as possible and examine those plants for any sign of infestation, including by targeted destructive sampling;

take any other measure, which may help eradicate the specified pest, taking account of ISPM No 9 ( 6 ) and applying an integrated approach in accordance with the principles set out in ISPM No 14 ( 7 ) .
1. The demarcation may be lifted when, based on the surveys referred to in Article 8(1), point (h), the specified pest is not detected in a demarcated area for at least one life cycle of the specified pest plus one additional year, in total no less than four consecutive years.
For the purposes of the first subparagraph, the exact length of the life cycle of the specified pest shall depend on evidence that is available for the area concerned or a similar climate zone.
2. The demarcation may also be lifted in cases where the conditions set out in Article 6(1) are fulfilled.
1. In the demarcated areas for eradication, the competent authorities shall take all of the following measures:
(a)
immediate felling of infested plants and plants suspected to be infested, and complete removal of their roots;
(b)
immediate felling of all specified plants and removal of their roots within a radius of 100 m around infested plants, and examination of those specified plants for any sign of infestation, except in cases where the infested plants were found outside the flying period of the specified pest, when the felling and removal shall be carried out in time before the start of the next flying period;
(c)
removal, examination and safe disposal of plants felled in accordance with points (a) and (b) and of their roots, taking all necessary precautions to avoid spreading of the specified pest during and after felling;
(d)
prohibition of any movement of potentially infested material out of the demarcated area;
(e)

(k)
where necessary, specific measures to address any particularity or complication that could reasonably be expected to prevent, hinder or delay eradication, in particular those related to the accessibility and adequate eradication of all plants that are infested or suspected of infestation, irrespective of their location, public or private ownership or the person or entity responsible for them;
(l)
any other measure which may contribute to the eradication of the specified pest, in accordance with International Standard for Phytosanitary Measure (‘ISPM’) No 9 ( 8 ) and to applying a systems approach in accordance with the principles set out in ISPM No 14 ( 9 ) .
In the case of the first subparagraph, point (a), where it is not possible to remove deeply seated stumps and surface roots, they shall be ground to not less than 40 cm, below the surface level, or covered by insect-proof material.
The surveys referred to in paragraph (1), point (h), shall be intensified compared to the surveys referred to in Article 3.

2. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, first subparagraph, point (b), where a competent authority concludes that felling is inappropriate for a limited number of individual plants, due to their particular social, cultural or environmental value, those individual plants shall be subject to a monthly individual examination for any sign of infestation and measures alternative to felling ensuring high level of protection shall be taken to prevent any possible spread of the specified pest from those plants.
The reasons for such conclusion and the measures taken as a result of it shall be communicated to the Commission in the report under Article 13.
1. When the results of the surveys referred to in Article 8(1), point (h), have confirmed the presence of the specified pest in an area during more than four consecutive years and there is evidence that the specified pest can no longer be eradicated, the competent authorities may limit the measures to the containment of the specified pest.

For column 7
:
Indicate the months of the year when the surveys were carried out.
For column 8
:
Indicate the chosen target population providing accordingly the list of host species/genera and area covered. The target population is defined as the ensemble of inspection units. Its size is defined typically for agricultural areas as hectares, but could be lots, fields, greenhouses, etc. Please justify the choice made in the underlying assumptions. Indicate the inspection units surveyed. ‘Inspection unit’ means plants, plant parts, commodities, materials, pest vectors that had been scrutinised for identifying and detecting the pests.
For column 9
:
Indicate the epidemiological units surveyed, indicating its description and unit of measurement. ‘Epidemiological unit’ means a homogeneous area where the interactions between the pest, the host plants and the abiotic and biotic factors and conditions would result into the same epidemiology, should the pest be present. The epidemiological units are a subdivision of the target population that are homogenous in terms of epidemiology with at least one host plant. In some cases the whole host population in a region/area/country may be defined as epidemiological unit. They could be NUTS regions, urban areas, forests, rose gardens or farms, or hectares. The choice of the epidemiological units hasto be justified in the underlying assumptions.

:
Indicate the methods used during the survey including the number of activities in each case, depending on the specific legal requirements of each pest. Indicate with N/A when the information of certain column is not available.
For column 11
:
Indicate an estimation of the sampling effectiveness. Sampling effectiveness means the probability of selecting infected plant parts from an infected plant. For vectors, it is the effectiveness of the method to capture a positive vector when it is present in the survey area. For soil, it is the effectiveness of selecting a soil sample containing the pest when the pest is present in the survey area.
For column 12
:
‘Method sensitivity’ means the probability of a method to correctly detect pest presence. The method sensitivity is defined as the probability that a truly positive host tests positive. It is the multiplication of the sampling effectiveness (i.e. probability of selecting infected plant parts from an infected plant) by the diagnostic sensitivity (characterised by the visual inspection and/or laboratory test used in the identification process).
For column 13
:
Provide the risk factors in different rows, using as many rows as necessary. For each risk factor indicate the risk level and corresponding relative risk and proportion of host population.
For column B

:
Indicate the number of trapping sites in case this number differs from the number of traps (Column 17) (e.g. the same trap is used in different places).
For column 21
:
Indicate the number of samples found positive, negative or undetermined. ‘Undetermined’ are those analysed samples for which no result was obtained due to different factors (e.g. below detection level, unprocessed sample-not identified, old).
For column 22
:
Indicate the outbreak notifications of the year when the survey took place. The outbreak notification number does not need to be included when the competent authority has decided that the finding is one of the cases referred to in Article 14(2), Article 15(2) or Article 16 of Regulation (EU) 2016/2031. In this case, indicate the reason for not providing this information in column 25 (‘Comments’).
For column 23
:
Indicate the sensitivity of the survey, as defined in ISPM 31. This value of the achieved confidence level of pest freedom is calculated based on the examinations (and/or samples) performed given the method sensitivity and the design prevalence.
For column 24
:
Indicate the design prevalence based on a pre-survey estimate of the likely actual prevalence of the pest in the field. The design prevalence is set as a goal of the survey and corresponds to the compromise the risk managers are making between the risk of having the pest and the resources available for the survey. Typically, for a detection survey a value of 1 % is set.
