(notified under document number C(2007) 663)
(2007/156/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 2000/29/EC of 8 May 2000 on protective measures against the introduction into the Community of organisms harmful to plants or plant products and against their spread within the Community (1), and in particular Article 15(1) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
By way of derogation from Directive 2000/29/EC, Commission Decision 2005/51/EC of 21 January 2005 authorising Member States temporarily to provide for derogations from certain provisions of Council Directive 2000/29/EC in respect of the importation of soil contaminated by pesticides or persistent organic pollutants for decontamination purposes (2) authorises, for a limited period, Member States participating in the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) programme on prevention and disposal of obsolete and unwanted pesticides to permit the introduction of soil contaminated by such pesticides into the Community for treatment in dedicated hazardous waste incinerators.
(2)
Since the implementation of that programme has been delayed, the period during which contaminated soil may be introduced under the authorisation granted by Decision 2005/51/EC should be extended.
(3)
Decision 2005/51/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(4)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Plant Health,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 2146/95 (3) adjusts the special arrangements for the importation of olive oil from certain countries in order to take account of the replacement of variable levies by fixed customs duties as a result of the conclusion of the Uruguay Round;
Whereas the period for taking transitional measures was extended to 30 June 1997 by Regulation (EC) No 1193/96 extending the period for taking the transitional measures necessary in the agricultural sector for implementation of the agreements concluded under the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations; whereas, pending the adoption by the Council of a definitive measure, the measures provided for in Regulation (EC) No 2146/95 should be extended to 30 June 1997;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committtee for Oils and Fats,

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3886/92 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1846/95 (4) lays down certain rules concerning the payment of advances; whereas, given the difficult market situation, an increase in the amount of the advance payment of the special premium, as well a earlier payment of that advance, compatible with budget forecasts, should be authorized;
Whereas the average milk yield per Member State currently applicable to determine the number of cows eligible for the premium for suckler cows has been derived from the relevant statitics for the year 1991 except in the caes of Austria, Finland and Sweden; whereas the average milk yield has increased considerably over the last few years; whereas, therefore, it is appropriate to adjust those figures to the new yields, taking 1993 as the reference year for all Member States;

COMMISSION DECISION
of 13 August 2008
amending Decision 2005/928/EC on the harmonisation of the 169,4-169,8125 MHz frequency band in the Community
(notified under document number C(2008) 4311)
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2008/673/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Decision No 676/2002/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 March 2002 on a regulatory framework for radio spectrum policy in the European Community (Radio Spectrum Decision) (1), and in particular Article 4(3) thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Commission Decision 2005/928/EC (2) harmonises the 169,4-169,8125 MHz frequency band in the Community.
(2)
The frequency plan contained in the Annex to Decision 2005/928/EC describes the channel raster which the different applications operating under the conditions set in this Decision should adhere to. Such a channel raster aims at enabling compatibility and facilitating coexistence of the applications allowed in these bands.
(3)
The frequency plan imposes a channel raster of 12,5 kHz in the 169,4000-169,4750 MHz band and a channel raster of 50 kHz in the 169,4875-169,5875 MHz band.
(4)
Following the adoption of Decision 2005/928/EC further investigations of the technical parameters defined in this Decision revealed that the channel raster arrangements in the bands 169,4000-169,4750 MHz and 169,4875-169,5875 MHz are considered unduly restrictive given the technological development. Allowing several channel raster options will increase the flexibility for the users to choose the optimal bandwidth up to 50 kHz in accordance with quality requirements of the specific applications.
(5)
The European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) has confirmed that increasing the channel raster options in these bands can and should be allowed.
(6)
Decision 2005/928/EC should therefore be amended accordingly. By amending this Decision channels up to 50 kHz will be possible in the 169,4000-169,4750 MHz and 169,4875-169,5875 MHz bands.
(7)
The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Radio Spectrum Committee,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
Decision 2005/928/EC is amended as follows:
1.
In the 4th row of the frequency plan in the Annex the channel raster (in kHz) figure ‘12,5’ for channels 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3a and 3b is replaced by ‘up to 50 kHz’.
2.
In the 4th row of the frequency plan in the Annex the channel raster (in kHz) figure ‘50’ for channels 4b + 5 + 6a and 6b + 7 + 8a is replaced by ‘up to 50 kHz’.
Article 2
Article 1 shall apply from 31 October 2008.
Article 3
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
