Amendments (2)

Amendment 192 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 5 – paragraph 1 a (new)
1a. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, the competent authority may, in specific cases, set less strict emission limit values. Such a derogation may apply only where an assessment shows that the achievement of emission levels provided in Annex II would lead to disproportionately higher costs compared to the environmental benefits due to: (a) the geographical location or the local environmental conditions of the installation concerned; or (b) the technical characteristics of the installation concerned. The competent authority shall document in the information document provided in article 4(4) the reasons for the application of the first subparagraph including the result of the assessment and the justification for the conditions imposed. The competent authority shall ensure that no significant pollution is caused and that a high level of protection of the environment as a whole is achieved.

Amendment 198 #
Proposal for a directive
Article 5 – paragraph 1 b (new)
1b. The emission limit values set out in Annex II shall not apply to medium combustion plants located in the Canary Islands, French Overseas Departments, the archipelagos of Madeira and Azores and to medium combustion plants being part of small and micro isolated systems as defined in Directive 2009/72/EC. Member States shall set emission limit values for those plants in order to reduce their emissions to air and the potential risks to human health and the environment.
