Proposal for a directive
Recital 1

(1) The Union is endeavouring to secure a future international agreement to control greenhouse gas impacts from international aviation and, in the meantime, is limiting climate change impacts from aviation ~~activities to and from aerodromes~~ in the Union and EEA by autonomous action. In order to ensure that these objectives are mutually supportive and not in conflict, it is appropriate to take account of developments at and positions taken in international fora and in particular to take account of the Resolution containing the ‘Consolidated statement of continuing ICAO policies and practices related to environmental protection’ adopted at the 38th session of the Assembly of the International civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO).

In doing so, the Union emphasises that requirements can be applied in respect of certain percentages of emissions fromfacilitated progress in ICAO.

Recital 3

(3) While the application of Directive 2003/87/EC continues to be based on arrival at or departure from aerodromes in the Union, in order to be a simple and workable means to limit the application of regional market-based measures for the 7 years until a global market-based measure begins operation, the percentages have been calculated by Eurocontrol on the basis of the proportion of the Great Circle Distance between the main airports in the EEA and in third countries that is not more than 12 miles beyond the furthest point of EEA coastline. Since the Union does not consider that a global market- based measure should be based on actual airspace considerations, as compared to the arrival or departure from aerodromes, the relevance of the percentages is limited to the period up to 2020.deleted

By way of derogation from Article 12(2a) and Article 14(3), for flights to and from countries outside the EEA, an aircraft operator may choose not to report emission data using the percentages in Annex IIc, in order that such emissions shall be calculated by the competent authority.

The competent authority shall report all such calculations to the Commission. Calculations of emissions made in these circumstances shall be considered to be the verified emissions of the aircraft operator for the purposes of Articles 11a, 12, 14 and 28a.deleted
