State aid measure C 12/2002 (ex N 847/2001) - Environmental aid to Acciaierie Valbruna SpA

(2002/C 251/05)

(Text with EEA relevance)

By means of the letter dated 2 July 2002, reproduced below, the Commission notified Italy of its decision to terminate the proceedings initiated in respect of the abovementioned aid measure. "By letter dated 20 December 2001, received on 21 December 2001, Italy notified the Commission of a plan to grant aid towards investment to be carried out by Acciaerie Valbruna SpA.

The aid was to amount to EUR 4426397. The investment consisted of nine projects, of which five were considered to be energy-saving measures and four were considered to be aimed at environmental protection.

By letter dated 27 February 2002, the Commission informed Italy that it had decided to initiate the procedure laid down in Article 6(5) of Commission Decision No 2496/96/ECSC in respect of the aid.

The Commission decision to initiate the procedure was published in the Official Journal of the European Communities(1)

By letter dated 12 April 2002, the Italian authorities informed the Commission that the company had decided to forego the aid, that the aid would not be granted, and that Italy was accordingly withdrawing the notification.

As the Italian authorities have withdrawn the notification and do not intend to grant the aid notified, the Commission has decided to terminate the proceedings initiated under Article 6(5) of Decision No 2496/96/ECSC."

Commission notice concerning the Alliance between KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and Northwest Airlines, Inc., (case COMP/D-2/36.111 - procedure under Article 85 (ex Article 89) of the EC Treaty)

(2002/C 264/05)

(Text with EEA relevance)

On 3 July 1996 the Commission opened a procedure under Article 85 (ex Article 89) of the EC Treaty(1) in order to examine the compatibility of the Alliance between KLM and NW (the Parties) with Article 81 of the EC Treaty (Case COMP/D-2/36.111). This procedure relates exclusively to the transatlantic services covered by the KLM/NW Alliance.

On 30 July 2002 the Commission announced in a notice published in the Official Journal of the European Communities its intention to take a favourable position on the cooperation agreements between KLM/NW and to close the proceedings(2). Interested third parties have not raised any substantial new elements.

Accordingly the Commission decided on 28 October 2002 that there is no longer any reason to take action under Article 85 of the Treaty and that the proceedings can therefore be closed.

(2002/C 317/01)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(Publication of titles and references of harmonised standards under the Directive)

>TABLE>

Note 1:

Generally the date of cessation of presumption of conformity will be the date of withdrawal ("dow"), set by the European Standardisation Organisation, but attention of users of these standards is drawn to the fact that in certain exceptional cases this can be otherwise.

Note 2.1:

The new (or amended) standard has the same scope as the superseded standard. On the date stated, the superseded standard ceases to give presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the directive.

Note 2.2:

The new standard has a broader scope than the superseded standard. On the date stated the superseded standard ceases to give presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the directive.

Note 2.3:

The new standard has a narrower scope than the superseded standard. On the date stated the (partially) superseded standard ceases to give presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the directive for those products that fall within the scope of the new standard. Presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the directive for products that still fall within the scope of the (partially) superseded standard, but that do not fall within the scope of the new standard, is unaffected.

Note 3:

In case of amendments, the referenced standard is EN CCCCC:YYYY, its previous amendments, if any, and the new, quoted amendment. The superseded standard (column 4) therefore consists of EN CCCCC:YYYY and its previous amendments, if any, but without the new quoted amendment. On the date stated, the superseded standard ceases to give presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the directive.

Note 4:

The EN 60061-1, -2, -3, and -4 series have a particular structure and therefore the date of cessation of presumption of conformity indicated only affects the types modified by the different amendments.

Note 5:

EN 60335-1:1994/A1:1996 supersedes standards EN 60335-2-19:1989 and EN 60335-2-20:1989. These two standards have 1.4.2004 as the date of cessation of presumption of conformity. The same applies to EN 60335-1:1994/A12:1996.

Note 7:

EN 60335-2-9 covers the safety objectives of directive 73/23/EEC only if, in conjunction, the requirements laid down in Amendment 11:2000 to EN 60335-2-9:1995 or in the Commission Opinion 2000/C 104/07 are taken into account.

Note 8:

EN 60598-1 covers the safety objectives of directive 73/23/EEC only if, in conjunction, Commission Opinion 2001/C 29/02 is taken into account.
