No. L 304, 23.10.2014, p. 89), which amends Directive 2009/126/EC (O.J. No. L 285, 31.10.2009, p. 36) as regards the test methods to certify petrol vapour recovery systems for use in service stations and the test methods to verify the operation of such systems.\nRegulation 4 amends the principal Regulations to substitute the definition of “PVR II” in paragraph 2 of Part 2 of Schedule 12 so that the updated definition refers to that Directive as amended by Commission Directive 2014/99/EU.\nAn Impact Assessment has been prepared and copies can be obtained from the Air and Environmental Quality Unit, Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs, Goodwood House, 44-58 May Street, Town Parks, Belfast, BT1 4NN.
