The Commission has examined those measures in collaboration with Hungary, and it is satisfied that the borders of the protection and surveillance zones, established by the competent authority in that Member State, are at a sufficient distance to the actual holding where the outbreak was confirmed.
Komisija je v sodelovanju z Madžarsko proučila navedene ukrepe in presodila, da so meje okuženih in ogroženih območij, ki jih je vzpostavil pristojni organ v navedeni državi članici, dovolj oddaljene od dejanskega gospodarstva, na katerem je bil izbruh potrjen.
In order to prevent any unnecessary disturbance to trade within the Union and to avoid unjustified barriers to trade being imposed by third countries, it is necessary to rapidly define the protection and surveillance zones established in Hungary at Union level in collaboration with that Member State.
Za preprečitev kakršnih koli nepotrebnih motenj za trgovino v Uniji in v izogib tveganju, da tretje države sprejmejo neupravičene omejitve trgovanja, je treba na ravni Unije v sodelovanju z Madžarsko nemudoma opredeliti okužena in ogrožena območja v navedeni državi članici.
Accordingly, pending the next meeting of the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, the protection and surveillance zones in Hungary, where the animal health control measures as laid down in Directive 2005/94/EC are applied, should be defined in the Annex to this Decision and the duration of that regionalisation fixed.
Zato bi bilo treba do naslednje seje Stalnega odbora za rastline, živali, hrano in krmo v Prilogi k temu sklepu opredeliti okužena in ogrožena območja na Madžarskem, kjer se uporabljajo nadzorni ukrepi za zdravje živali iz Direktive 2005/94/ES, ter določiti trajanje navedene regionalizacije.
Hungary shall ensure that the protection and surveillance zones established in accordance with Article 16(1) of Directive 2005/94/EC comprise at least the areas listed as protection and surveillance zones in Parts A and B of the Annex to this Decision.
Madžarska zagotovi, da okužena in ogrožena območja, vzpostavljena v skladu s členom 16(1) Direktive 2005/94/ES, obsegajo vsaj okužena in ogrožena območja iz delov A in B Priloge k temu sklepu.
This Decision shall apply until 26 March 2015.

Sklep Komisije 2011/383/EU [9] preneha veljati 28. junija 2015.
An assessment has been carried out to evaluate the relevance and appropriateness of the current ecological criteria, as well as of the related assessment and verification requirements, established by Decisions 2009/563/EC, 2009/564/EC, 2009/578/EC, 2010/18/EC, 2011/263/EU, 2011/264/EU, 2011/382/EU and 2011/383/EU.
Opravljena je bila ocena smiselnosti in primernosti obstoječih okoljskih meril ter z njimi povezanih zahtev za ocenjevanje in preverjanje iz odločb 2009/563/ES, 2009/564/ES, 2009/578/ES, 2010/18/ES ter sklepov 2011/263/EU, 2011/264/EU, 2011/382/EU in 2011/383/EU.
As the current ecological criteria and the related assessment and verification requirements set out in those Decisions are still under revision, it is appropriate to prolong those periods of validity of the ecological criteria and those related assessment and verification requirements.
Ker se sedanja okoljska merila ter z njimi povezane zahteve za ocenjevanje in preverjanje iz navedenih odločb in sklepov še pregledujejo, je primerno ta obdobja veljavnosti navedenih okoljskih meril ter z njimi povezanih zahtev za ocenjevanje in preverjanje podaljšati.
Given the different stages of the revision processes, the period of validity of the ecological criteria and related assessment and verification requirements set out in Decision 2009/563/EC should be prolonged until 31 December 2015 and the period of validity of the ecological criteria and related assessment and verification requirements set out in Decisions 2009/564/EC, 2009/578/EC, 2010/18/EC, 2011/263/EU, 2011/264/EU, 2011/382/EU and 2011/383/EU should be prolonged until 31 December 2016.
Glede na različne faze postopkov pregleda bi bilo treba obdobje veljavnosti okoljskih meril in z njimi povezanih zahtev za ocenjevanje in preverjanje iz Odločbe 2009/563/ES podaljšati do 31. decembra 2015, obdobje veljavnosti okoljskih meril ter z njimi povezanih zahtev za ocenjevanje in preverjanje iz odločb 2009/564/ES, 2009/578/ES, 2010/18/ES ter sklepov 2011/263/EU, 2011/264/EU, 2011/382/EU in 2011/383/EU pa bi bilo treba podaljšati do 31. decembra 2016.
Decisions 2009/563/EC, 2009/564/EC, 2009/578/EC, 2010/18/EC, 2011/263/EU, 2011/264/EU, 2011/382/EU and 2011/383/EU should therefore be amended accordingly.
Odločbe 2009/563/ES, 2009/564/ES, 2009/578/ES, 2010/18/ES ter sklepe 2011/263/EU, 2011/264/EU, 2011/382/EU in 2011/383/EU bi bilo zato treba ustrezno spremeniti.

Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2015/346
Izvedbeni sklep Komisije (EU) 2015/346
on granting a derogation requested by the United Kingdom with regard to Northern Ireland pursuant to Council Directive 91/676/EEC concerning the protection of waters against pollution caused by nitrates from agricultural sources
o odobritvi odstopanja, ki ga je zahtevalo Združeno kraljestvo z ozirom na Severno Irsko na podlagi Direktive Sveta 91/676/EGS o varstvu voda pred onesnaževanjem z nitrati iz kmetijskih virov
(notified under document C(2015) 542)
(notificirano pod dokumentarno številko C(2015) 542)
Having regard to Council Directive 91/676/EEC of 12 December 1991 concerning the protection of waters against pollution caused by nitrates from agricultural sources [1] and, in particular, the third subparagraph of paragraph 2 of Annex III thereto,
ob upoštevanju Direktive Sveta 91/676/EGS z dne 12. decembra 1991 o varstvu voda pred onesnaževanjem z nitrati iz kmetijskih virov [1] in zlasti tretjega pododstavka odstavka 2 Priloge III k Direktivi,
If the amount of manure that a Member State intends to apply per hectare each year is different from those specified in the first sentence of the second subparagraph of paragraph 2 of Annex III to Directive 91/676/EEC and in point (a) of that subparagraph, that amount is to be fixed so as not to prejudice the achievement of the objectives specified in Article 1 of that Directive and it has to be justified on the basis of objective criteria, such as long growing seasons and crops with high nitrogen uptake.
Če se količina gnoja, ki jo namerava država članica letno vnesti na hektar, razlikuje od količin, navedenih v prvem stavku drugega pododstavka odstavka 2 Priloge III k Direktivi 91/676/EGS in v točki (a) navedenega pododstavka, mora biti ta količina določena tako, da ne posega v doseganje ciljev iz člena 1 navedene direktive, in biti upravičena glede na objektivna merila, kot so dolga rastna doba in posevki, ki sprejmejo veliko dušika.
On 14 December 2007, the Commission adopted Decision 2007/863/EC [2] granting a derogation requested by the United Kingdom with regard to Northern Ireland pursuant to Directive 91/676/EEC concerning the protection of waters against pollution caused by nitrates from agricultural sources, allowing the application of livestock manure up to a limit of 250 kg nitrogen per hectare per year, under certain conditions, on farms with at least 80 % grassland.
Komisija je 14. decembra 2007 sprejela Odločbo 2007/863/ES [2] o odobritvi odstopanja, ki ga je zahtevalo Združeno kraljestvo z ozirom na Severno Irsko na podlagi Direktive 91/676/EGS o varstvu voda pred onesnaževanjem z nitrati iz kmetijskih virov, s katero je pod določenimi pogoji dovolila letni vnos 250 kg dušika iz živinskega gnoja na hektar na kmetijah z vsaj 80 % travinja.
On 24 February 2011, the Commission adopted Decision 2011/128/EU [3], amending Decision 2007/863/EC and extending the derogation through 31 December 2014.
Komisija je 24. februarja 2011 sprejela Sklep 2011/128/EU [3] o spremembi Odločbe 2007/863/ES in podaljšanju odstopanja do 31. decembra 2014.
The derogation granted by Decision 2007/863/EC as amended by Decision 2011/128/EU concerned 145 farms in 2013, corresponding to approximately 0,59 % of the total number of holdings and 0,42 % of the total net agricultural area.
Odstopanje, odobreno z Odločbo 2007/863/ES, kakor je bila spremenjena s Sklepom 2011/128/EU, je v letu 2013 zadevalo 145 kmetij, kar ustreza približno 0,59 % skupnega števila kmetijskih gospodarstev in 0,42 % celotne neto kmetijske površine.
On 10 October 2014, the United Kingdom for the region of Northern Ireland submitted to the Commission a request for Derogation under the third subparagraph of paragraph 2 of Annex III to Directive 91/676/EEC.
Združeno kraljestvo je za Severno Irsko 10. oktobra 2014 Komisiji predložilo zahtevek za odstopanje na podlagi tretjega pododstavka odstavka 2 Priloge III k Direktivi 91/676/EGS.
The United Kingdom for the region of Northern Ireland, in conformity with paragraph 5 of Article 3 of Directive 91/676/EEC, applies an action programme throughout its whole territory.
Združeno kraljestvo za regijo Severna Irska v skladu z odstavkom 5 člena 3 Direktive 91/676/EGS uporablja akcijski program na vsem svojem ozemlju.
The Report from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament on the implementation of Directive 91/676/EEC concerning the protection of waters against pollution caused by nitrates from agricultural sources based on Member State reports for the period 2008-2011 shows that in the United Kingdom for the region of Northern Ireland for groundwater, all monitoring stations have mean nitrate concentrations below 50 mg/l and 93 % of monitoring stations have mean nitrate concentrations below 25 mg/l.
Poročilo Komisije Svetu in Evropskemu parlamentu o izvajanju Direktive Sveta 91/676/EGS o varstvu voda pred onesnaževanjem z nitrati iz kmetijskih virov na podlagi poročil držav članic za obdobje 2008–2011 kaže, da je v Združenem kraljestvu v regiji Severna Irska, kar zadeva podzemno vodo, povprečna koncentracija nitratov na vseh postajah za spremljanje pod 50 mg/l, in da je povprečna koncentracija nitratov na 93 % postaj za spremljanje pod 25 mg/l.
For surface water, all monitoring stations have mean nitrate concentrations below 25 mg/l.
Kar zadeva površinsko vodo, so povprečne koncentracije nitratov na vseh postajah za spremljanje pod 25 mg/l.
Cattle, poultry and sheep numbers decreased respectively by 5 %, 5 % and 10 %, while pig numbers increased by 4 % from the period 2004-2007 to the period 2008-2011.
Število govedi, perutnine in ovac se je od obdobja 2004–2007 do obdobja 2008–2011 znižalo za 5 %, 5 % oziroma 10 %, število prašičev pa se je zvišalo za 4 %.
Phosphorus average surplus in the period 2008-2011 was 13,6 kg/ha, with a decline of 30,1 % compared to 2004-2007.
Na splošno se na travniških kmetijah 42 % površin obdeluje ekstenzivno, kar v smislu gostote pomeni eno glavo živine na hektar in manjši vnos gnojil, 37 % površin se obdeluje v okviru kmetijsko-okoljskih programov in le 24 % površin se obdeluje intenzivno z gostoto dve glavi živine na hektar ali več.
Average chemical N fertiliser use decreased by 18,4 % in the period 2008-2011 compared to 2004-2007.
5 % površin se uporablja za pridelavo poljščin.
Average chemical P fertiliser use decreased by 53 % in the period 2008-2011 compared to 2004-2007.
Povprečna uporaba kemičnih gnojil na travinju je 79 kg/ha dušika in 5 kg/ha fosforja.
In Northern Ireland, 93 % of agricultural land is devoted to grassland.
Za Severno Irsko je značilno, da ima veliko padavin in pretežno tla s slabim odtokom.
Overall, in grassland farms, 42 % of the land area is farmed extensively and has a stocking rate of less than 1 livestock unit per hectare and low fertiliser inputs, 37 % is farmed under agri-environmental programmes and only 24 % is farmed more intensively, at a stocking rate of 2 livestock units per hectare or more.
Zaradi oviranega odtoka je na večini tal na Severnem Irskem razmeroma velika možnost denitrifikacije, ki zmanjšuje koncentracijo nitratov v tleh in zaradi tega količino nitratov, ki so podvrženi izpiranju.
5 % is used for arable agriculture.
Za podnebje na Severnem Irskem sta značilna enakomerno razporejena letna količina padavin in relativno majhen razpon temperatur, kar spodbuja razmeroma dolgo rastno sezono trave, kjer se zemljišča dejavno upravljajo in obdelujejo od 270 dni na leto na obalnem območju do okoli 260 dni na leto na osrednjem nižavju.
