Commission Regulation (EC) No 260/2006
of 15 February 2006
amending Regulation (EC) No 1573/2005 opening a standing invitation to tender for the resale on the Community market of rye held by the German intervention agency for processing into bioethanol and its subsequent use for the production of biofuel in the Community
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1784/2003 of 29 September 2003 on the common organisation of the market in cerealsf1, and in particular Article 6 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
The use of bioethanol obtained from rye made available under the invitation to tender opened by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1573/2005f2 for the final production of biofuel involves various economic operators and the transport of the bioethanol to the premises of the industrialists responsible for adding the bioethanol to other fuels.
(2)
As the economic circuits used require the transport of the bioethanol, provision should be made for the possibility of storing it with intermediaries by mixing it with identical products not obtained under the invitation to tender concerned. It is, however, necessary to maintain traceability of the flows of the quantities obtained under the invitation to tender.
(3)
Regulation (EC) No 1573/2005 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(4)
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Cereals,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
