This must not affect the steering wheel’s operational safety even if the permanent deformation is greater than 1 degree in the direction of rotation. 6. 2. 1. 4. Fatigue test The replacement steering wheel is mounted with its rim in a test jig, as shown in annex 7, figure of an example of a fatigue test device, and subjected to a approximate sinusoidal endurance load cycle test with a torque of 14 daNm – 0,5 daNm at a frequency of 1,5 Hz – 0,25 Hz. The replacement steering wheel must withstand at least 1 U 105 load cycles without showing any signs of cracks or fractures which might affect its operational safety. 6. 2. 2. Installation requirement tests and driver’s view to the instrument panel 6. 2. 2. 1. The driver’s view to: (a) the speedometer (b) the tell tales for: P direction indicator P main beam C 337 E/12 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning 28. 11. 2000 P rear fog lamp P hazard warning signal P automatic antilock system P brake system malfunctions P airbag function indicator shall be guaranteed. The visibility is assessed by means of a comparative evaluation of photographs taken of the instrument panel of the vehicle under test equipped with a replacement steering wheel. The H points are measured after the vehicle has been aligned on the three dimensional measuring device. The relation between vehicle and coordinate system is established through reference points of the body. If the coordinates of the R point are not known, the H point is determined using a 50 percentile manikin. The driver’s seat is adjusted as follows: (a) seat in rearmost position of the device for longitudinal adjustment; (b) backrest inclined corresponding to 25R back angle of the manikin; (c) other adjusting devices in central position. A 35 mm camera inclined by 15R towards the horizontal plane is used to simulate binocular viewing and photos are taken from each of the eye points. Position of the eye points related to the R or H point in the coordinate system in accordance with ISO 4130 (dimensions in mm): x 0 y z Q 32,5 + 635,0 x 0 y z + 32,5 + 635,0 For the camera the eye points are determined 35 mm in front of the plane of representation (normally the film plane) and on the centre axis of the optical system. 6. 2. 2. 2. Operation of control elements An examination is made to find out whether the minimum and maximum distances indicated below between the control elements for instance for direction indicator and headlamp flasher and the steering wheel rim are maintained. Thus, satisfactory operation of the control elements and satisfactory handling of the replacement steering wheel are to be ensured: (a) the measure KaL with a limitation of a minimum 30 mm refers to the control element with the smallest distance to the replacement steering wheel. It denotes the shortest distance between the control element and the rearplane of the steering wheel rim facing the instrument panel. (b) The measure KbL with a limitation of a maximum value of 130 mm denotes the distance from the centre of the direction indicator control element and the front plane of the steering wheel rim facing the driver. 6. 2. 2. 3. Testing of installation The conditions of installation, the diameter of the replacement steering wheel as compared with the original version of the vehicle manufacturer, the repositioning of direction indicator control, the function of the audible warning device and the function of the airbag tell tale are considered in the examination. Also the function of sensors monitoring the driver’s seat or the passenger seat(s) and providing a deployment status to the airbag controller shall be examined, if available. 6. 2. 2. 4. Testing of adapters The fitting dimensions (e. g. toothing of the steering shaft) are compared with the dimensions as provided by the manufacturer using a profile projector. The strength of the replacement adapters is checked by tightening the fixing nut/screw applying twice the tightening torque specified by the vehicle manufacturer but not more than 85 Nm. Adequate examinations are made to verify that the adapters for vehicle types with anti-theft systems integrated into the steering wheel conform to the corresponding features of the steering wheel produced by the vehicle manufacture in terms of strength, dimensions and the materials and function, or tests of the anti-theft system in accordance with Regulation No 18 shall be carried out to demonstrate that he replacement steering wheel system fulfils the above mentioned Regulation. 28. 11. 2000 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning C 337 E/13 6. 2. 3.

PURPOSE The procedure described in this annex is used to establish the KHL point location and the actual torso angle for one or several seating positions in a motor vehicle and to verify the relationship of measured data to design specifications given by the vehicle manu- facturer (1). DEFINITIONS For the purposes of this annex: KReference dataL means one or several of the following characteristics of a seating position: the KHL point and the KRL point and their relationship, the actual torso angle and the design torso angle and their relationship. KThree-dimensional VHW point machineL (3-D H machine) means the device used for the determination of KHL points and actual torso angles. This device is described in appendix 1 to this annex; K VHW pointL means the pivot centre of the torso and the thigh of the 3-D H machine installed in the vehicle seat in accordance with paragraph 4 below. The KHL point is located in the centre of the centreline of the device which is between the KHL point sight buttons on either side of the 3-D H machine. The KHL point corresponds theoretically to the KRL point (for tolerances see paragraph 3. 2. 2 below). Once determined in accordance with the procedure described in paragraph 4, the KHL point is considered fixed in relation to the seat-cushion structure and to move with it when the seat is adjusted; K VRW pointL or Kseating reference pointL means a design point defined by the vehicle manufacturer for each seating position and established with respect to the three-dimensional reference system; KTorso-lineL means the centreline of the probe of the 3-D H machine with the probe in the fully rearward position; KActual torso angleL means the angle measured between a vertical line through the KHL point and the torso line using the back angle quadrant on the 3-D H machine. The actual torso angle corresponds theoretically to the design torso angle (for tolerances see paragraph 3. 2. 2 below): KDesign torso angleL means the angle measures between a vertical line through the KRL point and the torso line in a position which corresponds to the design position of the seat-back established by the vehicle manufacturer; KCentreplane of occupantL (C/LO) means the median plane of the 3-D H machine positioned in each designated seating position; it is represented by the co-ordinate of the KHL point on the KYL axis. For individual seats, the centreplane of the seat coincides with the centreplane of the occupant. For other seats, the centreplane of the occupant is specified by the manufacturer; KThree-dimensional reference systemL means a system as described in appendix 2 to this annex; KFiducial marksL are physical points (holes, surfaces, marks or indentations) on the vehicle body as defined by the manufacturer; KVehicle measuring attitudeL means the position of the vehicle as defined by the co-ordinates of fiducial marks in the three-dimensional reference system. REQUIREMENTS Data presentation For each seating position where reference data are required in order to demonstrate compliance with the provisions of the present Regulation, all or an appropriate selection of the following data shall be presented in the form indicated in appendix 3 to this annex: the co-ordinates of the KRL point relative to the three-dimensional reference system; the design torso angle; all indications necessary to adjust the seat (if it is adjustable) to the measuring position set out in paragraph 4. 3 below. Relationship between measured data and design specifications The co-ordinates of the KHL point and the value of the actual torso angle obtained by the procedure set out in paragraph 4. below shall be compared, respectively, with the co-ordinates of the KRL point and the value of the design torso angle indicated by the vehicle manufacturer. The relative positions of the KRL point and the KHL point and the relationship between the design torso angle and the actual torso angle shall be considered satisfactory for the seating position in question if the KHL point, as defined by its co-ordinates, lies within a square of 50 mm side length with horizontal and vertical sides whose diagonals intersect at the KRL point, and if the actual torso angle is within 5R of the design torso angle. ___________ (1) In any seating position other than front seats where the KHL point cannot be determined using the KThree-dimensional KHL point machineL or procedures, the KRL point indicated by the manufacturer may be taken as a reference at the discretion of the competent authority.

If these conditions are met, the KRL point and the design torso angle, shall be used to demonstrate compliance with the provisions of this Regulation. If the KHL point or the actual torso angle does not satisfy the requirements of paragraph 3. 2. 2 above, the KHL point and the actual torso angle shall be determined twice more (three times in all). If the results of two of these three operations satisfy the requirements, the conditions of paragraph 3. 2. 3 above shall apply. If the results of at least two of the three operations described in paragraph 3. 2. 4 above do not satisfy the requirements of paragraph 3. 2. 2 above, or if the verification cannot take place because the vehicle manufacturer has failed to supply information regarding the position of the KRL point or regarding the design torso angle, the centroid of the three measured points or the average of the three measured angles shall be used and be regarded as applicable in all cases where the KRL point or the design torso angle is referred to in this Regulation. PROCEDURE FOR KHL POINT AND ACTUAL TORSO ANGLE DETERMINATION The vehicle shall be preconditioned at the manufacturer’s discretion, at a temperature of 20 – 10 RC to ensure that the seat material reached room temperature. If the seat to be checked has never been sat upon, a 70 to 80 kg person or device shall sit on the seat twice for one minute to flex the cushion and back. At the manufacturer’s request, all seat assemblies shall remain unloaded for a minimum period of 30 min prior to installation of the 3-D H machine. The vehicle shall be at the measuring attitude defined in paragraph 2. 11 above. The seat, if it is adjustable, shall be adjusted first to the rearmost normal driving or riding position, as indicated by the vehicle manufacturer, taking into consideration only the longitudinal adjustment of the seat, excluding seat travel used for purposes other than normal driving or riding positions. Where other modes of seat adjustment exist (vertical, angular, seat-back, etc. ) these will then be adjusted to the position specified by the vehicle manufacturer. For suspension seats, the vertical position shall be rigidly fixed corresponding to a normal driving position as specified by the manufacturer. The area of the seating position contacted by the 3-D H machine shall be covered by a muslin cotton, of sufficient size and appropriate texture, described as a plain cotton fabric having 18,9 threads per cm2 and weighing 0,228 kg/m2 or knitted or non-woven fabric having equivalent characteristics. If the test is run on a seat outside the vehicle, the floor on which the seat is placed shall have the same essential characteristics (1) as the floor of the vehicle in which the seat is intended to be used. Place the seat and back assembly of the 3-D H machine so that the centreplane of the occupant (C/LO) coincides with the centreplane of the 3-D H machine. At the manufacturer’s request, the 3-D H machine may be moved inboard with respect to the C/LO if the 3-D H machine is located so far outboard that the seat edge will not permit levelling of the 3-D H machine. Attach the foot and lower leg assemblies to the seat pan assembly, either individually or by using the T-bar and lower leg assembly. A line through the KHL point sight buttons shall be parallel to the ground and perpendicular to the longitudinal centreplane of the seat. Adjust the feet and leg positions of the 3-D H machine as follows: Designated seating position: driver and outside front passenger Both feet and leg assemblies shall be moved forward in such a way that the feet take up natural positions on the floor, between the operating pedals if necessary. Where possible the left foot shall be located approximately the same distance to the left of the centreplane of the 3-D H machine as the right foot is to the right. The spirit level verifying the transverse orientation of the 3-D H machine is brought to the horizontal by readjustment of the seat pan if necessary, or by adjusting the leg and foot assemblies towards the rear. The line passing through the KHL point sight buttons shall be maintained perpendicular to the longitudinal centreplane of the seat. 4. 7. 1. 2. If the left leg cannot be kept parallel to the right leg and the left foot cannot be supported by the structure, move the left foot until it is supported. The alignment of the sight buttons shall be maintained. 4. 7. 2. Designated seating position: outboard rear For rear seats or auxiliary seats, the legs are located as specified by the manufacturer. If the feet then rest on parts of the floor which are at different levels, the foot which first comes into contact with the front seat shall serve as a reference and the other foot shall be so arranged that the spirit level giving the transverse orientation of the seat of the device indicates the horizontal. 4. 7. 3. Other designated seating positions: 4. 8. 4. 9. 4. 9. 1. The general procedure indicated in paragraph 4. 7. 1 above shall be followed except that the feet shall be placed as specified by the vehicle manufacturer. Apply lower leg and thigh weights and level the 3-D H machine. Tilt the back pan forward against the forward stop and draw the 3-D H machine away from the seat-back using the T-bar. Reposition the 3-D H machine on the seat by one of the following methods: If the 3-D H machine tends to slide rearward, use the following procedure. Allow the 3-D H machine to slide rearward until a forward horizontal restraining load on the T-bar is no longer required i. e. until the seat pan contacts the seat-back. If necessary, reposition the lower leg. ___________ (1) Tilt angle, height difference with a seat mounting, surface texture, etc. 28. 11. 2000 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning C 337 E/25 4. 9. 2. 4. 10. 4. 11. 4. 12. If the 3-D H machine does not tend to slide rearward, use the following procedure. Slide the 3-D H machine rearwards by applying a horizontal rearward load to the T-bar until the seat pan contacts the seat-back (see figure 2 of appendix 1 to this annex). Apply a 100 – 10 N load to the back and pan assembly of the 3-D H machine at the intersection of the hip angle quadrant and the T-bar housing. The direction of load application shall be maintained along a line passing by the above intersection to a point just above the thigh bar housing (see figure 2 of appendix 1 to this annex). Then carefully return the back pan to the seat-back. Care must be exercised throughout the remainder of the procedure to prevent the 3-D H machine from sliding forward. Install the right and left buttock weights and then, alternately, the eight torso weights. Maintain the 3-D H machine level. Tilt the back pan forward to release the tension on the seat-back. Rock the 3-D H machine from side to side through a 10R arc (5R to each side of the vertical centreplane) for three complete cycles to release any accumulated friction between the 3-D H machine and the seat. During the rocking action, the T-bar of the 3-D H machine may tend to diverge from the specified horizontal and vertical alignment. The T-bar must therefore be restrained by applying an appropriate lateral load during the rocking motions. Care shall be exercised in holding the T-bar and rocking the 3-D H machine to ensure that no inadvertent exterior loads are applied in a vertical or fore and aft direction. The feet of the 3-D H machine are not to be restrained or held during this step. If the feet change position, they should be allowed to remain in that attitude for the moment. Carefully return the back pan to the seat-back and check the two spirits levels for zero position. If any movement of the feet has occurred during the rocking operation of the 3-D H machine, they must be repositioned as follows: Alternately, lift each foot off the floor the minimum necessary amount until no additional foot movement is obtained. During this lifting, the feet are to be free to rotate; and no forward or lateral loads are to be applied. When each foot is placed back in the down position, the heel is to be in contact with the structure designed for this. Check the lateral spirit level for zero position; if necessary, apply a lateral load to the top of the back pan sufficient to level the 3-D H machine’s seat pan on the seat. 4. 13. Holding the T-bar to prevent the 3-D H machine from sliding forward on the seat cushion, proceed as follows: (a) return the back pan to the seat-back; (b) alternately apply and release a horizontal rearward load, not to exceed 25 N, to the back angle bar at a height approximately at the centre of the torso weights until the hip angle quadrant indicates that a stable position has been reached after load release. Care loads are applied to the 3-D H machine. If another level shall be exercised to ensure that no exterior downward or lateral adjustment of the 3-D H machine is necessary, rotate the back pan forward, re-level, and repeat the procedure from paragraph 4. 12. 4. 14. Take all measurements: 4. 14. 1. The co-ordinates of the KHL point are measured with respect to the three-dimensional reference system. 4. 14. 2. The actual torso angle is read at the back angle quadrant of the 3-D H machine with the probe in its fully rearward position. 4. 15. 4. 16. If a re-run of the installation of the 3-D H machine is desired, the seat assembly should remain unloaded for a minimum period of 30 min prior to the re-run. The 3-D H machine should not be left loaded on the seat assembly longer than the time required to perform the test. If the seats in the same row can be regarded as similar (bench seat, identical seats, etc. ) only one KHL point and one Kactual torso angleL shall be determined for each row of seats, the 3-D H machine described in appendix 1 to this annex being seated in a place regarded as representative for the row. This place shall be: 4. 16. 1. in the case of the front row, the driver’s seat; 4. 16. 2. in the case of the rear row or rows, an outer seat. C 337 E/26 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning 28. 11. 2000 Annex 8 Appendix 1 DESCRIPTION OF THE THREE-DIMENSIONAL 5H6 POINT MACHINE (1) (3-D H machine) 1. Back and seat pans The back and seat pans are constructed of reinforced plastic and metal; they simulate the human torso and thigh and are mechanically hinged at the KHL point. A quadrant is fastened to the probe hinged at the KHL point to measure the actual torso angle. An adjustable thigh bar, attached to the seat pan, establishes the thigh centreline and serves as a baseline for the hip angle quadrant. 2. Body and leg elements Lower leg segments are connected to the seat pan assembly at the T-bar joining the knees, which is a lateral extension of the adjustable thigh bar. Quadrants are incorporated in the lower leg segments to measure knee angles. Shoe and foot assemblies are calibrated to measure the foot angle. Two spirit levels orient the device in space. Body element weights are placed at the corresponding centres of gravity to provide seat penetration equivalent to a 76 kg male. All joints of the 3-D H machine should be checked for free movement without encountering noticeable friction.

text: C 303 E/160 Gazzetta ufficiale delle Comunit(cid:224) europee IT 24. 10. 2000 (2000/C 303 E/177) INTERROGAZIONE SCRITTA P-0198/00 di Monica Frassoni (Verts/ALE) alla Commissione (27 gennaio 2000) Oggetto: Allargamento della strada di accesso a Gardaland, Castelnuovo del Garda (Verona) Con delibera 153 del 28. 7. 1999 il comune di Castelnuovo sul Garda (Verona) ha approvato il progetto esecutivo di ampliamento a quattro corsie piø pista ciclabile e pedonabile del tratto di circa 1400 m, ricadente nel proprio territorio, della strada denominata Via Derna, che collega la statale 249 (Gardesana orientale) alla provinciale 30 (Per Col(cid:224)) (1). Tale opera viene giustificata con la necessit(cid:224) di dare soluzione ai problemi di accesso automobilistico al parco di divertimenti Gardaland spa, che si far(cid:224) carico dell(cid:146)onere di realizzazione. L(cid:146)obiettivo finale Ł infatti quello di prolungare tale asse fino all(cid:146)autostrada A4 (Milano- Venezia) passando per la statale 450 (Superstrada Napoleonica) (2). Tuttavia, nØ il comune di Lazise, nØ l(cid:146)ANAS, nØ la Societ(cid:224) Autostrade spa si sono impegnate, per quanto di loro competenza, a completare l(cid:146)opera e a potenziare i raccordi con le strade interessate (provinciale 30 e statale 450) e con l(cid:146)autostrada A4 (Milano-Venezia) tramite un nuovo casello. Ci(cid:242) mette seriamente in dubbio l(cid:146)utilit(cid:224) del progetto, dimostrando che l(cid:146)iniziativa del comune di Castelnuovo Ł una forzatura nei confronti degli altri enti pubblici. Contro il progetto, sono gi(cid:224) state presentate osservazioni ed Ł stato inoltrato ricorso al Tribunale amministrativo regionale da parte di privati (3). Per il progetto non Ł stata effettuata nessuna valutazione d(cid:146)impatto ambientale (VIA), nØ Ł stato esaminato se tale valutazione sia necessaria. Il provvedimento italiano (4) che recepisce la direttiva 85/337/CEE (5) prevede che tutte le strade extraurbane secondarie e quelle urbane di scorrimento a quattro o piø corsie lunghe piø di 1500 mt, ricadenti anche parzialmente in area naturale protetta, debbano essere sottoposte a VIA; per quelle non ricadenti invece, si deve comunque verificare se le caratteristiche del progetto richiedano una VIA. Via Derna ricade in parte in ambito territoriale soggetto a vincolo paesaggistico ed un suo allargamento contrasta pure con gli indirizzi ambientali per la predisposizione dei piani di area del Lago di Garda, previsti dal Piano territoriale regionale di coordina- mento, massimo strumento di pianificazione del Veneto (6). La Corte di giustizia ha recentemente dato un(cid:146)interpretazione restrittiva dell(cid:146)applicazione della VIA (7). in area naturale protetta, Non ritiene la Commissione necessario sottoporre il progetto in questione a procedimento di verifica ambientale, finalizzato ad accertare la necessit(cid:224) di una VIA? In caso affermativo, quali misure intende assumere per garantirlo? (1) A titolo informativo, Via Derna fu costruita nel 1977 con contributi FEAOG come strada di valorizzazione agricola (DM 16772 del 25. 10. 74, ai sensi della legge 910 del 27. 10. 66, art. 35). (2) La lunghezza complessiva dell(cid:146)asse Gardaland-Autostrada A4 sarebbe complessivamente di circa 5,8 km. (3) Cause TAR Veneto n. 3027/99 (Frezza Gianfranco), 3028/99 (Lorenzini Andreino e Claudio) e 3029/99 (Lorenzini Renzo). (4) DPR del 12. 4. 1996, pubblicato sulla Gazzetta ufficiale del 7. 9. 1996. (5) Cfr. GU L 175 del 5. 7. 1985, pag. 40. (6) A questo proposito, la legge regionale veneta sulla VIA n. 10 del 26. 3. 1999, pubblicata sul BUR del 30. 3. 1999, prevede la VIA per le strade urbane di scorrimento a quattro o piø corsie lunghe piø di 1950 mt e per le strade extraurbane secondarie lunghe piø di 5 km, qualora entrambe ricadano anche parzialmente in area sensibile. Nulla dispone la legge regionale per le strade extraurbane secondarie lunghe meno di 5 km e ricadenti in aree sensibili. (7) Ha infatti statuito che, nel caso di opere elencate nell(cid:146)allegato II delle direttive in materia di IVA, uno Stato membro non ha il potere di dispensare o sottrarre un progetto alla VIA qualora il suo impatto ambientale sia notevole, segnatamente per la sua natura, dimensione o ubicazione (Causa C-435/97, sentenza del 16. 9. 1999), e che comunque Ł obbligatorio procedere anteriormente ad una verifica ambientale per accertare la necessit(cid:224) di una VIA (Causa C-133/94, sentenza del 2. 5. 1996). Risposta data dalla sig. ra Wallstr(cid:246)m A nome della Commissione (23 febbraio 2000) Il progetto cui fa riferimento l(cid:146)onorevole parlamentare riguarda una strada a quattro corsie della lunghezza di 1400 metri e deve quindi essere compreso nella voce 10e), «Costruzione di strade, porti e impianti portuali, compresi i porti di pesca (progetti non compresi nell(cid:146)allegato I)», di cui all(cid:146)allegato II della direttiva 24. 10. 2000 IT Gazzetta ufficiale delle Comunit(cid:224) europee C 303 E/161 97/11/CE, del 3 marzo 1997, che modifica la direttiva 85/337/CEE concernente la valutazione dell(cid:146)impatto ambientale di determinati progetti pubblici e privati (1). Al paragrafo 2 dell(cid:146)articolo 4, la direttiva dispone che, fatto salvo il paragrafo 3 dell(cid:146)articolo 2 per i progetti elencati nell(cid:146)allegato II, gli Stati membri determinano, mediante: a) un esame del progetto caso per caso, o b) soglie o criteri fissati dagli Stati membri, se il progetto debba essere sottoposto a valutazione a norma degli articoli da 5 a 10. Gli Stati membri possono decidere di applicare entrambe le procedure di cui alle lettere a) e b). Non essendo al corrente della situazione descritta dall(cid:146)onorevole parlamentare, la Commissione prender(cid:224) le opportune disposizioni per ottenere informazioni dettagliate in merito a questo progetto e per garantire l(cid:146)osservanza del diritto comunitario.

(2000/C 303 E/178) INTERROGAZIONE SCRITTA E-0206/00 di Chris Davies (ELDR) alla Commissione (4 febbraio 2000) Oggetto: Trasporto di animali di allevamento vivi Quali misure intende adottare la Commissione a seguito della relazione pubblicata in novembre dall(cid:146)Ufficio alimentare e veterinario che: (cid:129) ha sottolineato le gravi carenze registrate ai posti di ispezione alle frontiere italiane per quanto riguarda l(cid:146)esecuzione delle norme UE relative alla durata del viaggio, ai periodi di riposo, all(cid:146)abbeve- raggio e all(cid:146)alimentazione degli animali, (cid:129) ha raccomandato che le autorit(cid:224) italiane prendano immediati provvedimenti per garantire che gli animali sottoposti a lunghi viaggi in provenienza da paesi terzi, abbiano, se del caso, un periodo di riposo di 24 ore, e (cid:129) ha raccomandato che le autorit(cid:224) italiane rispondano entro un termine di 10 giorni lavorativi alle conclusioni della relazione, indicando i provvedimenti presi o che indendono prendere al riguardo. Risposta del sig.

text: 28. 1. 2000 SV Europeiska gemenskapernas officiella tidning L 23/47 KOMMISSIONENS FÖRORDNING (EG) nr 207/2000 av den 27 januari 2000 om fastställande av exportbidragen för bearbetade produkter av spannmål och ris EUROPEISKA GEMENSKAPERNAS KOMMISSION HAR ANTAGIT DENNA FÖRORDNING de särskilda kriterier som det bör tas hänsyn till då exportbidraget för dessa produkter beräknas. med beaktande av Fördraget om upprättandet av Europeiska gemenskapen, med beaktande av rådets förordning (EEG) nr 1766/92 av den 30 juni 1992 om den gemensamma organisationen av mark- naden för spannmål (1), senast ändrad genom kommissionens förordning (EG) nr 1253/1999 (2), särskilt artikel 13. 3 i denna, med beaktande av rådets förordning (EG) nr 3072/95 av den 22 december 1995 om den gemensamma organisationen av marknaden för ris (3), senast ändrad genom förordning (EG) nr 2072/98 (4), särskilt artikel 13. 3 i denna, och med beaktande av följande: 1. 2. 3. Artikel 13 i förordning (EEG) nr 1766/92 och artikel 13 i förordning (EG) nr 3072/95 fastställer att skillnaden mellan noteringarna eller priserna på världsmarknaden för de produkter som anges i artikel 1 i de förordning- arna och priserna för de produkterna inom gemen- skapen kan täckas av ett exportbidrag. Artikel 13 i förordning (EG) nr 3072/95 föreskriver att då exportbidragen fastställs måste hänsyn tas till den rådande situationen och den förväntade utvecklingen vad avser priser för och tillgängliga kvantiteter av spannmål, ris, brutet ris och spannmålsprodukter på gemenskapens marknad å ena sidan och priser för spannmål, ris, brutet ris och spannmålsprodukter på världsmarknaden å andra sidan. Samma artiklar före- skriver att det också är viktigt att säkerställa jämvikten hos och den naturliga utvecklingen av priserna och handeln på marknaderna för spannmål och ris och dess- utom att ta hänsyn till den planerade exportens ekono- miska aspekt, och behovet av att undvika störningar på gemenskapens marknad. Artikel 4 i kommissionens förordning (EG) nr 1518/ 95 (5), ändrad genom förordning (EG) nr 2993/95 (6), om import- bearbetade produkter baserade på spannmål respektive ris definierar exportsystemet och för 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Det exportbidrag som beviljas för vissa bearbetade produkter bör graderas på grundval av innehållet av aska, råfibrer, skal, proteiner, fett och stärkelse i varje enskild berörd produkt, eftersom detta innehåll är en särskilt god indikator på den kvantitet basprodukter som faktiskt ingår i den bearbetade produkten. Det finns för närvarande inget behov av att, på grundval av den ekonomiska aspekten av en eventuell export och särskilt produkternas natur och ursprung, fastställa ett exportbidrag för maniok, andra tropiska rötter och knölar eller finmalet mjöl erhållna av dessa. För vissa bearbetade produkter av spannmål är det, på grund av gemenskapens obetydliga deltagande i världshandeln, för närvarande onödigt att fastställa ett exportbidrag. Förhållandena på världsmarknaden, eller de särskilda krav som vissa marknader ställer, kan göra det nödvän- digt att variera exportbidraget för vissa produkter i enlighet med destination. Exportbidraget måste fastställas en gång per månad. Det kan ändras under den mellanliggande perioden. Vissa bearbetade produkter av majs får undergå en värmebehandling efter vilken ett exportbidrag som inte motsvarar produktens kvalitet kanske betalas ut. Det bör därför specificeras att för dessa produkter, som inne- håller förgelatinerad stärkelse, bör inget exportbidrag betalas ut. De åtgärder som föreskrivs i denna förordning är fören- från Förvaltningskommittén för liga med yttrandet spannmål. HÄRIGENOM FÖRESKRIVS FÖLJANDE. Artikel 1 (1) EGT L 181, 1. 7. 1992, s. 21.

Die Verpflichtungen hinsichtlich der Erstattungen für die Ausfuhr von landwirtschaftlichen Erzeugnissen, die in Waren außerhalb des Geltungsbereichs von Anhang I des Vertrags enthalten sind, könnten in Frage gestellt werden, wenn hohe Erstattungssätze im voraus festgelegt werden. Infolgedessen sind Vorkehrungen gegen solche Situationen zu ergreifen, ohne daß dadurch der Abschluß langfristiger Verträge verhindert wird. Die (1) ABl. L 181 vom 1. 7. 1992, S. 21. (2) ABl.

Festlegung eines Erstattungssatzes im Hinblick auf die vorzeitige zur Verwirklichung dieser Ziele bei. Festsetzung von Erstattungen trägt Im Anschluß an die zwischen der Europäischen Gemein- schaft und den Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika getrof- fene Übereinkunft über die Ausfuhren von Teigwaren aus der Gemeinschaft in die USA, die mit dem Beschluß 87/482/EWG des Rates (7) genehmigt wurde, muß die Erstattung für Waren der KN-Codes 1902 11 00 und 1902 19 00 je nach Bestimmungsgebiet unterschiedlich festgelegt werden. Artikel 4 Absatz 5 Buchstabe b) der Verordnung (EG) Nr. 1222/94 sieht vor, daß, falls der Nachweis gemäß Artikel 4 Absatz 5 Buchstabe a) der genannten Verord- nung nicht erbracht wird, für die Ausfuhr ein vermin- derter Erstattungssatz gilt. Dieser berücksichtigt den Betrag der Produktionserstattung, der zum vermuteten Zeitpunkt der Herstellung der Waren gemäß der Verord- nung (EWG) Nr. 1722/93 der Kommission (8), zuletzt geändert durch die Verordnung (EG) Nr. 87/1999 (9), auf das verarbeitete Grunderzeugnis anzuwenden war. Da jedoch unbedingt sichergestellt sein muß, daß die keine Unterbrechung peinlich genaue Verwaltung erfährt, muß sowohl den Ausgabenvorausschätzungen als auch den verfügbaren Haushaltsmitteln Rechnung getragen werden. Der Verwaltungsausschuß für Getreide hat nicht inner- halb der ihm von seinem Vorsitzenden gesetzten Frist Stellung genommen — (5) (6) (7) (8) HAT FOLGENDE VERORDNUNG ERLASSEN: Artikel 1 Die geltenden Erstattungssätze für die Grunderzeugnisse im Sinne des Anhangs A der Verordnung (EG) Nr. 1222/94 und des Artikels 1 der Verordnung (EWG) Nr. 1766/92 oder des Artikels 1 Absatz 1 der Verordnung (EG) Nr. 3072/95, die in Form von im Anhang B der Verordnung (EWG) Nr. 1766/92 oder im Anhang B der geänderten Verordnung (EG) Nr. 3072/ 95 genannten Waren ausgeführt werden, werden entsprechend dem Anhang festgesetzt.
