3.2 In addition to the changes mentioned above, there have been several changes in names

concerning the products listed in the catalogue of feed materials. For example: IDTF Number 40341 - “1.6.16 Brewers Rice” was changed to “1.6.16 Rice”, “1.8.3 Sorghum gluten feed” was changed to 1.8.3 Sorghum feed. All these products did already have a cleaning regime, which did not change, neither did the IDTF number. For more information about the new names, see REGULATION (EU) 2017/1017.

4. Modification concerning Rocks / decomposition product of rocks, of natural origin

In order to limit the amount of products concerning rocks/ decomposition products of rocks of natural origin in the IDTF, all these products will be grouped in two groups.. From now on all rocks and decomposition products of rocks of natural origin can be classified under two IDTF numbers mentioned below, distinguished with regard to their particle size.

N° IDTF	Product name	Minimum cleaning	Products in this group
40417	Rocks / decomposition product of rocks, of natural origin (granule size >2mm)	A	For example: Andalusite; Calcium fluoride; Calcium silicate; Chromite; Cobblestones; Colemanite of natural origin; Crushed brick; Diatomaceous earth (not used for filtration; Dolomite; Granite; Grit; Hematite; Iron ore; Labradorite; Lava; Magnetite; Mine stone; Natural gypsum; Nepheline syenite; Perlite; Phonolith; Pozzolana; Pumice / Bims; Quartz; Red schist; Rhyolite; Sanidine feldspar; Shingle; Siderite; Slate (spall); Spinel; Spodumene; Stone chippings; Manganese ore (Manga-K)
30508	Rocks / decomposition product of rocks, of natural origin (granule size ≤2mm)	B	For example: Andalusite; Calcium fluoride; Calcium silicate; Chromite; Cobblestones; Colemanite; Crushed brick; Diatomaceous earth (not used for filtration; Dolomite; Granite; Grit; Hematite; Iron ore; Labradorite; Lava; Magnetite; Mine stone; Natural gypsum; Nepheline syenite; Perlite; Phonolith; Pozzolana; Pumice / Bims; Quartz; Red schist; Rhyolite; Sanidine feldspar; Shingle; Siderite; Slate (spall); Spinel; Spodumene; Stone chippings; Manganese ore (Manga-K)

The above changes to the IDTF are applicable immediately and are binding.
