THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 of 22 May 2001 on production aid for cotton(2), and in particular Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In accordance with Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, a world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined periodically from the price for ginned cotton recorded on the world market and by reference to the historical relationship between the price recorded for ginned cotton and that calculated for unginned cotton. That historical relationship has been established in Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001 of 2 August 2001(3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1486/2002(4). Where the world market price cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on the most recent price determined.

To that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and quotations recorded on one or more European exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the Community and coming from the various supplier countries considered the most representative in terms of international trade. However, there is provision for adjusting the criteria for determining the world market price for ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the quality of the product delivered and the offers and quotations concerned.

(3) The application of the above criteria gives the world market price for unginned cotton determined hereinafter,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in pigmeat (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1475/86 (2), and in particular Article 4 (6) thereof,

COMMISSION DECISION
of 30 July 2007
amending Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to the use of halon 2402 in Bulgaria
(notified under document number C(2007) 3594)
(2007/540/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 June 2000 on substances that deplete the ozone layer (1), and in particular Article 4(4)(iv) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
The Commission has, during the course of the review provided for in Article 4(4)(iv) of Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000, and after consultation with Member States, come to the following findings with regard to the use of halon 2402.
(2)
The production of halon 2402 in developed countries ceased on 1 January 1994 in accordance with obligations under the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer. Since that time, any halon 2402 required shall be obtained from specialised storage facilities which have stored halon that has been replaced by alternatives.
(3)
Halon 2402 is still used in some applications in Bulgaria for fire and explosion suppression in military land vehicles, naval vessels and in aircraft. Romania has reported it has no uses of halon 2402.
(4)
The replacement of halon fire fighting equipment with alternative fire protection agents needs to take into account the availability of technically and economically feasible alternatives or technologies that are acceptable from the point of view of environment and health. Refit activities to install equipment that does not rely on halon for fire and explosion protection in military applications needs to be scheduled in a way that avoids unacceptably compromising the defense capability of the Member States. Special budgetary consideration and a period of time to convert to an alternative are often needed to adapt alternative fire protection agents to perform safely and effectively. At this point in time, no technically and economically feasible alternatives exist for such applications.
(5)
Article 4(4)(v) of Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 requires halon installed in equipment that is not listed as a critical use in Annex VII to have been decommissioned by 31 December 2003 and the halon to be recovered in accordance with Article 16. In order to qualify for a critical use exemption that would allow the continued use of halon 2402 in Bulgaria that acceded to the European Union on 1 January 2007, Annex VII to Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 should be amended to allow this fire extinguishing agent to be used for specific applications.
(6)
Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7)
The measures provided in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 18(1) of Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Annex VII to Regulation (EC) No 2037/2000 is amended as set out in the Annex to this Decision.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
Done at Brussels, 30 July 2007.
