         Procedure for demonstrating the level of compliance of existing railway lines with the basic parameters of the technical specifications for interoperability
      
      1.   Introduction
      
      1.1.   Technical Scope
      
      This procedure concerns the following subsystems of the Union rail system:
      
                  (a)
               
               
                  the infrastructure structural subsystem; and
               
            
                  (b)
               
               
                  the energy structural subsystem.
               
            These subsystems are included in the list of subsystems in Annex II (1) to Directive 2008/57/EC.
      1.2.   Geographical Scope
      
      The geographical scope of this procedure is the Union rail system as determined by Directive 2008/57/EC.
      1.3.   Definitions
      
      For the purpose of this procedure:
      
                   
               
               
                  “EI” means existing infrastructure (fixed installations) placed in service before the entry into force of Directive 2008/57/EC or lines placed in service after the entry into force of Directive 2008/57/EC without being subject to the EC verification procedure;
               
            
                   
               
               
                  “EI demonstration of compliance” means the verification whether basic parameters of a subsystem or/and an element of existing lines comply with requirements of the relevant TSIs;
               
            
                   
               
               
                  “EI certificate of demonstration” means the document issued by an independent assessor as a result of the EI demonstration of compliance;
               
            
                   
               
               
                  “EI declaration of demonstration” means the document issued by an applicant after receiving EI certificate of demonstration.
               
            2.   Procedure demonstrating compliance with Technical Specifications for Interoperability for existing lines
      
      2.1.   Purpose
      
      According to Decision 2011/275/EU concerning a technical specification for interoperability relating to the “infrastructure” subsystem of the trans-European conventional rail system, existing lines that are not subject to a renewal or upgrading project may allow the circulation of TSI-conform vehicles whilst meeting the essential requirements of Directive 2008/57/EC.
      Therefore, the following procedure may be applied for demonstrating compliance of existing fixed installations with the relevant TSIs without being subject to a new authorisation for putting into service.
      It is not mandatory, but may be used on a voluntary basis.
      2.2.   Procedure for demonstration of the level of compliance with the basic parameters of the TSI
      
      1.   Procedure for demonstration of the level of compliance with the basic parameters of the TSI is the EI demonstration of compliance procedure whereby the applicant fulfils the obligations laid down in points 2, 3, 5.2 and 5.4, and ensures and declares on his sole responsibility that the subsystem concerned, which has been subject to the provisions of point 4, satisfies the requirements of the relevant TSI(s).
      2.   The applicant lodges an application for the EI demonstration of compliance of the subsystem with an independent assessor of his choice.
      The application includes:
      
                   
               
               
                  name and address of the applicant and, if the application is lodged by the authorised representative, his name and address as well;
               
            
                   
               
               
                  the technical documentation.
               
            3.   Technical documentation
      
               
                  3.1.
               
               
                  The applicant establishes the technical documentation and makes it available to the independent assessor referred to in point 4. The documentation should make it possible to demonstrate the level of compliance of the existing subsystem's with the basic parameters of the relevant TSI(s).
               
            
               
                  3.2.
