Whereas:
(1) Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 provides that the difference between quotations or prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1 of that Regulation and prices for those products in the Community may be covered by an export refund.

Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2837/93 of 18 October 1993 (3), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 3499/93 (4), provides for a minimum density of olive trees on areas qualifying for the aid;
Whereas experience in the application of the aid scheme shows that this provision has not achieved the objective of excluding from aid areas which should not be considered true olive groves on account of their low tree density; whereas, as a  consequence, provision should be made for a higher minimum density of trees and for the way it is to be calculated;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Oils and Fats,
Article 1 (a) of Regulation (EEC) No 2837/93 is hereby replaced by the following:

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 130S thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),
Whereas, on 6 March 1986, the Council adopted Decision 86/85/EEC (4) establishing a Community information system for the control and reduction of pollution caused by the spillage of hydrocarbons and other harmful substances at sea;
Whereas the Council, as was emphasized in its conclusions of 24 November 1986, has expressed its concern at the pollution caused by accidents occurring in inland waters;
Whereas improved information on the resources for intervention in the event of a major spillage is a key element towards ensuring greater protection against such pollution of inland waterways;
Whereas the scope of Decision 86/85/EEC should therefore be extended, in particular with a view to compiling an inventory of the principal resources for intervention in the event of a spillage in major inland waterways of hydrocarbons and other harmful substances,
Decision 86/85/EEC is hereby amended as follows:
1. The title is replaced by the following:
'Council Decision of 6 March 1986 establishing a Community information system for the control and reduction of pollution caused by the spillage of hydrocarbons and other harmful substances at sea or in major inland waters.'
2. Article 1 (1) is replaced by the following:
'1. An information system is hereby established to make available to the competent authorities in the Member States the data required for the control and reduction of pollution caused by the spillage of hydrocarbons and other harmful substances in large quantities at sea or in major inland waters.'
3. The following is added to Article 1 (2):
'(e) an inventory of the principal resources for intervention available to the competent authorities of the Member States in the event of a spillage of hydrocarbons and other harmful substances in major inland waters, and among these in international waterways in particular (Annex IV).'

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 of 12 December 1979 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 (3), and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Whereas, by letter dated 19 May 1982, the Federal Republic of Germany has requested the Commission to invoke the procedure provided for in Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 in order to determine whether or not the apparatus described as "Dionex - Ion Chromatograph, model 10", ordered on 31 July 1981 and to be used for the study of the effect of acidic precipitation on the vegetation and soil and in particular for quantitative analysis of rain water for a number of components, should be considered to be a scientific apparatus and, where the reply is in the affirmative, whether apparatus of equivalent scientific value is currently being manufactured in the Community;
Whereas, in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79, a group of experts composed of representatives of all the Member States met, on 15 November 1982, within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;
Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is a chromatograph ; whereas its objective technical characteristics, such as the sensibility of the analysis and the use to which it is put, make it specially suited to scientific research ; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for scientific activities ; whereas it must therefore be considered to be a scientific apparatus;
Whereas, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of equivalent scientific value capable of use for the same purpose is not currently manufactured in the Community ; whereas, therefore, duty-free admission of this apparatus is justified,
The apparatus described as "Dionex - Ion Chromatograph, model 10", which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 19 May 1982, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
