Whereas:
(1) Austria has authorised trials involving the use of oxalic acid to reduce the calcium content of wine, the addition of up to 200 mg of metartaric acid per litre of wine for the tartaric stabilisation of wine and the use of silver chloride to eliminate undesirable taste or odour in wine.
(2) Austria has sent the Commission a communication regarding those trials. The Commission has informed the Member States of the results of the latter.
(3) Austria has requested the Commission for authorisation to extend those trials for a further three years in view of the positive results achieved and has submitted the relevant documents in support of its request.

That trial, which may also pose risks to public health and the environment, should therefore not be extended.

(8) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
Austria is hereby authorised to continue applying the following oenological practices on a trial basis:
- the use of oxalic acid for the precipitation of calcium, provided that this treatment does not lead to an increase in the initial concentration of oxalic acid in the wine treated,
- the addition of up to 200 mg of metatartaric acid per litre of wine, provided that the total quantity of tartaric acid present in the wine does not lead to the acceptable daily intake of tartrate of 30 mg/kg body weight being exceeded and that no DL-tartaric acid is formed in the wine treated,
until 31 July 2002 in accordance with the conditions laid down in Article 41 of Regulation (EC) No 1622/2000.
