Recital 18

(18) When authorising the use of RENURE fertilisers from processed manure, Member States should also take into account their possible effects on the attainment of the objectives of Council Directive 92/43/EEC (7), and of Directives 2000/60/EC (8), (EU) 2016/2284 (9), (EU) 2020/2184 (10) and 2008/50/EC (11) of the European Parliament and of the Council and of Regulation (EU) 2018/848 of the European Parliament and of the Council (12). The use of RENURE fertilisers should not affect or hamper the implementation of those directives and of that Regulation. In view of the precautionary principle set out in Article 191(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Member States should take particular precautions in and around Natura 2000 areas and in the vicinity of drinking water abstraction points. In application of the above legislation, and prior to giving the authorisation to use such RENURE fertilisers, Member States should assess the overall impact on ammonia emissions in the regions where application of RENURE fertilisers is authorised, in view of ensuring that environmental objectives are not negatively affected.
