(2000/172/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 91/67/EEC of 28 January 1991 concerning the animal health conditions
governing the placing on the market of aquaculture animals and products (1), as last amended by Directive
98/45/EC (2), and in particular Article 6 thereof,

Whereas:

The Member States may obtain the status of approved farms free of certain fish diseases for fish
farms located in non-approved zones in respect of infectious haematopoietic necrosis (IHN) and viral
haemorrhagic septicaemia (VHS).

The list of approved fish farms in France was established by Commission Decision 95/473/EC (3), as
last amended by Decision 1999/556/EC (4).

France has submitted justifications to the Commission for obtaining the status of approved farms
located in non-approved zones in respect of IHN and VHS for other fish farms, as well as the
national provisions ensuring compliance with the rules on maintenance of approval.

The Commission and the Member States examined the justifications notified by France for those
farms.

That examination has shown that the farms concerned meet the requirements of Article 6 of
Directive 91/67/EEC.

Therefore, those farms should accordingly qualify for the status of approved farms in non-approved
zones.

Those farms should be added to the list of approved farms.

The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing
Veterinary Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

The Annex to Decision 95/473/EC is hereby replaced by the Annex hereto.
