COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 2007/34/EC

of 14 June 2007

amending, for the purposes of its adaptation to technical progress, Council Directive 70/157/EEC concerning the permissible sound level and the exhaust system of motor vehicles

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 70/156/EEC of 6 February 1970 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of motor vehicles and their trailers (1), and in particular the second indent of Article 13(2) thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 70/157/EEC relating to the permissible sound level and the exhaust system of motor vehicles (2), and in particular Article 3 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Directive 70/157/EEC is one of the separate Directives in the context of the Community type-approval procedure laid down in Directive 70/156/EEC. The provisions of Directive 70/156/EEC relating to systems, components and separate technical units for vehicles therefore apply to Directive 70/157/EEC.

(2) Since the entry into force of Directive 70/157/EEC of 6 February 1970, the noise limits for motor vehicles have been reduced several times, most recently in 1995. The last reduction did not have the expected effects and subsequent studies have shown that the measurement method no longer reflects the real life driving behaviour. It is therefore necessary to introduce a new test cycle and bring the driving conditions for carrying out the noise test closer into line with real life driving operations. The new test cycle is contained in UN/ECE Regulation No 51, 02 series of amendments (3).

(3) During a transitional period, the current test as well as the new test should be carried out for type-approval and the results of both tests should be reported to the Commission. This would enable the Commission to obtain the necessary data for establishing appropriate limit values for the new measurement method which would replace the existing test protocol. The current method should continue to be required in order to receive type-approval and the new method should be used for monitoring purposes. After the transitional period, the test protocol as adapted to the new test should become the only measurement required in order to receive type-approval.

(4) In order to take into account the most recent amendments to UN/ECE Regulations Nos 51 and 59, to which the Community has already acceded, it is appropriate to adapt Directive 70/157/EEC to technical progress by aligning it with the technical requirements of those regulations. This is important, in particular, in order to take over the mandatory monitoring procedure of the motor vehicle noise emissions laid down in the UN/ECE Regulation No 51 for the purposes of EC type-approval. Otherwise, the Directive would fall behind the Regulation with regard to technical advancement.

(5) Pursuant to Article 3 of Directive 70/157/EEC, the measures provided for by this Directive do not modify the requirements set out in points 5.2.2.1 and 5.2.2.5 of Annex I to Directive 70/157/EEC. With regard to the new structure of the Annexes, it is necessary to adapt the numbering and references specified in those points. In order to ensure the link to other provisions of Community legislation, it is also appropriate to provide for a correlation between the current and the new numbering.

(6) The measures provided for in this Directive are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for Adaptation to Technical Progress,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:

Article 1

1. Directive 70/157/EEC is amended as follows:

(a) Annex I is replaced by the text set out in Annex I to this Directive;

(b) Annex II is replaced by the text set out in Annex II to this Directive;

(c) Annex III is replaced by the text set out in Annex III to this Directive;

(d) Annex IV is deleted.

2. References to points 5.2.2.1 and 5.2.2.5 of Annex I to Directive 70/157/EEC shall be construed as references to points 2.1 and 2.2 of Annex I, as replaced by this Directive.

Article 2

With effect from 6 July 2008 and until 6 July 2010, the vehicle to be type-approved shall be subject to the test laid down in Annex 10 of UN/ECE Regulation No 51 for monitoring purposes only. The results of that test shall be added to the documents set out in Appendices 1 and 2 of Annex I to Directive 70/157/EEC as amended by this Directive, in conformity with Annex 9 of UN/ECE Regulation No 51. The Member State concerned shall send such information documents to the Commission. These obligations do not affect cases of extension of existing approvals according to this Directive. For the purpose of this monitoring procedure a vehicle is not considered to be a new type if the vehicle differs only in respect to paragraphs 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 of UN/ECE Regulation No 51.

Article 3

1. Member States shall adopt and publish, by 5 July 2008 at the latest, the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with this Directive. They shall forthwith communicate to the Commission the text of those provisions and a correlation table between those provisions and this Directive.

They shall apply those provisions from 6 July 2008.

When Member States adopt those provisions, they shall contain a reference to this Directive or be accompanied by such a reference on the occasion of their official publication. Member States shall determine how such reference is to be made.

2. Member States shall communicate to the Commission the text of the main provisions of national law which they adopt in the field covered by this Directive.

Article 4

This Directive shall enter into force on the 20th day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

Article 5

This Directive is addressed to the Member States.

ANNEX I ANNEX I PROVISIONS FOR EC TYPE-APPROVAL IN RESPECT OF THE SOUND LEVEL OF A TYPE OF MOTOR VEHICLE 1. APPLICATION FOR EC TYPE-APPROVAL OF A VEHICLE TYPE 1.1. The application for EC type-approval pursuant to Article 3(4) of Directive 70/156/EEC of a vehicle type with regard to its sound level shall be submitted by the vehicle manufacturer. 1.2. A model for the information document is given in Appendix 1. 1.3. A vehicle representative of the type in respect of which type-approval is sought must be submitted to the technical service responsible for the tests by the vehicle manufacturer. 1.4. At the request of the technical service, a specimen of the exhaust system and an engine of at least the same cylinder capacity and rated maximum power as that fitted to the vehicle in respect of which type-approval is sought must also be submitted. 2. SOUND LEVEL OF MOVING VEHICLES 2.1. Limiting values The sound level measured in accordance with the provisions of Annex III shall not exceed the following limits: Vehicle categories Values expressed in dB(A) (decibels(A)) 2.1.1.

Vehicles intended for the carriage of goods and having a maximum permissible mass exceeding 3,5 tonnes: 2.1.4.1. with an engine power of less than 75 kW 77 2.1.4.2. with an engine power of not less than 75 kW but less than 150 kW 78 2.1.4.3. with an engine power of not less than 150 kW 80 However — for vehicles of categories 2.1.1 and 2.1.3, the limit values are increased by 1 dB(A) if they are equipped with a direct injection diesel engine, — for vehicles with a maximum permissible mass of over two tonnes designed for off-road use, the limit values are increased by 1 dB(A) if their engine power is less than 150 kW and 2 dB(A) if their engine power is 150 kW or more, — for vehicles in category 2.1.1, equipped with a manually operated gear box having more than four forward gears and with an engine developing a maximum power exceeding 140 kW/t and whose maximum power/maximum mass ratio exceeds 75 kW/t, the limit values are increased by 1 dB(A) if the speed at which the rear of the vehicle passes the line BB' in third gear is greater than 61 km/h. 2.2. Interpretation of results 2.2.1. To take account of inaccuracies in the measuring instruments, the result obtained from each measurement is determined by deducting 1 dB(A) from the meter reading. 2.2.2. The measurements are considered valid if the difference between two consecutive measurements on the same side of the vehicle does not exceed 2 dB(A). 2.2.3. The highest sound level measured shall constitute the test result. Should the result exceed the maximum permissible sound level for the category of vehicle tested by 1 dB(A), two further measurements shall be made at the corresponding microphone position. Three of the four measurements thus obtained at that microphone position must fall within the prescribed limits. 3. MARKINGS 3.1.
