As provided for in Article 17 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1340/2008 of 8 December 2008 on trade in certain steel products between the European Community and the Republic of Kazakhstan (1), the European Commission gives notice that Council Regulation (EC) No 1340/2008 expired on 30 November 2015 following Kazakhstan’s accession to the World Trade Organisation on this date.

The Commission’s assessment of available information previously indicated that it would be possible for the organic aquaculture sector to comply with this requirement. However, new information received recently from Member States and stakeholders suggests that organic juveniles and shellfish seed are at this date not available in sufficient quantities and that the sector of organic aquaculture would have difficulties ensuring production of organic aquaculture animals. Therefore, the Commission would like to inform economic operators concerned that it is preparing a Commission Regulation amending Regulation (EC) No 889/2008, that would postpone the application of the percentage of 0 % provided for in Article 25e(3) and in the third subparagraph of 25o(1) of Regulation (EC) No 889/2008 by one year. The 0 % would therefore only apply as of 31 December 2016. This prolongation of the possibility of using non-organic juveniles and seed from non-organic bivalve shellfish hatcheries until 31 December 2016 should avoid disruption of organic aquaculture production in the Union, and would give time to the market for organic juveniles and shellfish seed to develop further.

(2) Direct gas delivery for “big users”.

(3) This group is specific to the Netherlands. It involves gases with a low Wobbe index which may contain a relatively high proportion of higher hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide. It was not included in annex B of EN 437. This nameless specific group of low calorific gas will not be supplied before 1 January 2022 at the earliest.

(4) The safe operation of gas appliances in this group must be guaranteed for gases which contain a high level of carbon dioxide, molecular hydrogen or higher hydrocarbons. A higher Wobbe index may apply for users in exceptional geographical locations, which effectively means that a different gas group is applicable.

(5) Supply pressures indicate the gas pressure, after the gas has passed through any gas pressure regulator, for the gas meter installed on the premises of the end consumer. Supply pressures to industrial consumers may be considerably higher.

(6) Group E gas will not be supplied to current users of low calorific gas before 1 January 2030 at the earliest.

(8) For domestic consumers, supply pressures reflects the pressure on entry into the meter. Supply pressures to non-domestic consumers may be considerably higher.

Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature of the European Union

Pursuant to the second indent of Article 9(1)(a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 (1), the Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature of the European Union (2) are hereby amended as follows:

On page 279, the Explanatory note to heading:

‘7019 Glass fibres (including glass wool) and articles thereof (for example, yarn, woven fabric)’

is replaced by the following:

‘7019 Glass fibres (including glass wool) and articles thereof (for example, yarn, woven fabric)

Glass fibres include two main categories:

(a) textile glass fibres (filament glass fibres) produced from textile glass, i.e. glass products in which the filaments are largely parallel to each other; textile glass fibres are mostly used for reinforcement of other materials, e.g. composites, plastics;

(b) glass wool fibres; glass wool fibres (random oriented fibres) produced by a rotary spinning process and are mostly used for insulation purposes.

There are two types of textile glass fibre:

(a) (continuous) filament glass fibre consisting of a large number of continuous parallel filaments with diameters usually between 3 and 34 μm (microns); after forming, those continuous filaments are held together in a strand by size (also called “sizing”) designed to facilitate subsequent production steps (chopping, winding, twisting, weaving, etc.); the intermediate products are then used in the production of certain commercial glass fibre articles (chopped strands, rovings, yarns, etc.);

(b) discontinuous filament glass fibre (staple glass fibre) consisting of filaments cut or broken in short lengths during the production process and pulled into a continuous strand of loosely assembled fibres; they are usually used in woven fabrics, for example, for the covering of walls in the construction and building sector.

Textile glass fibres can be further processed into the following articles of this heading:

— mats and scrims with chemically bonded fibres, i.e. chopped strand mats, continuous strand mats and typical non-woven products like thin sheets (voiles), laid scrims, etc.,

— fabrics with mechanically bonded fibres, i.e. woven fabrics, non-crimp fabrics, knitted fabrics, stitched fabrics, needled fabrics like woven rovings, open mesh fabrics, screens.’
