The Czech authority justifies its request by referring to the conclusion of the risk assessment report named ‘Study to assess risks to the environment and health resulting from the use of phosphate fertilisers containing cadmium’, based on the methodology of ERM (3). According to this study, on the basis of the available data, the PEC value (Predicted Environmental Concentration) from cadmium in mineral fertilizers in the Czech republic, reaches 0,93 of the PNEC value (Predicted No Effect Concentration) for a fertiliser with a cadmium content of 50 mg Cd/kg P2O5 (the national limit predating accession to the EU). A risk to the environment would exist if that value exceeded 50mg. Moreover, an upper limit of 50 mg Cd/kg P2O5 is needed to prevent accumulation of cadmium in soil to a level which would pose a risk to the environment and to human health via the food-chain.

The Commission had signalled in the Communication on interoperability of digital interactive television services (1) its intention to add two more digital interactive television standards, MHEG-5 and WTVML, to the list of standards conditional upon their adoption by European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).

These two standards, MHEG-5 and WTVML have now been adopted by ETSI, and the list of standards is hereby being revised.

Chapter VI of the List of standards and/or specifications for electronic communications networks, services and associated facilities and services as published in the Official Journal of the European Union, reference OJ C 331, 31.12.2002, p.47 is amended as follows:

The heading APPLICATION PROGRAM INTERFACES (APIs), and all the text on page 47 under this heading is deleted, and replaced by the following heading and text:

INTERACTIVE DIGITAL TELEVISION Article 18(1)(a) of the Framework Directive requires Member States to encourage, in accordance with the provisions of Article 17(2), providers of digital interactive television services for distribution to the public in the Community on digital interactive television platforms, regardless of the transmission mode, to use an open API.

Commission opinion of 23 May 2006 concerning the modified plan for the disposal of radioactive waste from the Comurhex plant located in Pierrelatte in France, in accordance with Article 37 of the Euratom Treaty

(2006/C 123/02)

(Only the French text is authentic)

On 8 November 2005, the European Commission received from the Government of France, in accordance with Article 37 of the Euratom Treaty, General Data relating to the modified plan for the disposal of radioactive waste from the Comurhex plant.

On the basis of the General Data and following consultation with the Group of Experts, the Commission has drawn up the following opinion:

1. The distance between the plant and the nearest point on the territory of another Member State, in this case Italy, is approximately 170 km.

2. The modification envisaged will result in an overall increase of the limits for airborne and liquid effluent discharges in order to allow for tritium and carbon 14.

3. Under normal operation, the modification envisaged will not cause an exposure that is significant from the point of view of health for the population of another Member State.

4. In the event of unplanned releases of radioactive effluents resulting from an accident of the type and magnitude considered in the General Data, the planned modification will not give rise to any significant effect from the point of view of health on the population of another Member State.

In conclusion, the Commission is of the opinion that the implementation of the modified plan for the disposal of radioactive waste in whatever form from the Comurhex plant in Pierrelatte in France, both in normal operation and in the event of an accident of the type and magnitude considered in the General Data, is not liable to result in radioactive contamination, significant from the point of view of health, of the water, soil or airspace of another Member State.

(2006/C 246/02)

(Text with EEA relevance)

1. France has decided to amend, with effect from 25 March 2007, the public service obligation imposed on scheduled air services between Strasbourg and Amsterdam published in the Official Journal of the European Communities No C 85 of 9 April 2002 pursuant to Article 4(1)(a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2408/92 of 23 July 1992 on access for Community air carriers to intra-Community air routes.

2. The public service obligation is as follows:

2.1. Frequency

The minimum level of service provided between Amsterdam and Strasbourg must be two round trips per day from Monday to Friday, all year round except for the month of August, when there must be a minimum of one round trip per day, from Monday to Friday. The flights in question must be non-stop.

2.2. Type of aircraft used and minimum capacity provided

The services must be operated by jet aircraft with at least 48 seats.

2.3. Timetables

The first flight in the day departing from Amsterdam must leave at a time that enables flights from other European countries to connect.

The timetable must coincide with parliamentary sessions, i.e. arriving at Strasbourg close to but no later than 14:00 for the session beginning at 15:00 and leaving Strasbourg close to but no earlier than 17:00, when the sessions end.

The two daily rotations must enable passengers to make a return trip in one day.

2.4. Flight bookings

Seats on these flights must be marketed by a computerised booking system.

2.5. Continuity of service

Except in cases of force majeure, the number of flights cancelled for reasons directly attributable to the carrier must not exceed 2 % of the number of flights scheduled in any IATA scheduling season. The carrier must give a minimum of six months' notice before discontinuing these services.

Community carriers are hereby informed that the operation of air services without regard to the abovementioned public service obligation may result in administrative and/or criminal penalties.
