Whereas:
(1) A case of foot-and-mouth disease in wild boar and a number of outbreaks of that disease in livestock were confirmed in Bulgaria in January 2011. As a consequence, Bulgaria has taken measures in the framework of Council Directive 2003/85/EC of 29 September 2003 on Community measures for the control of foot-and-mouth disease(3).
(2) In addition, Commission Decision 2011/44/EU of 19 January 2011 concerning certain protection measures against foot-and-mouth disease in Bulgaria(4) was adopted, as it was necessary to reinforce the control measures taken by Bulgaria. That Decision is to apply until 31 March 2011.
(3) On 19 March 2011, Bulgaria reported an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in beef cattle grazing in the municipality of Sredets, situated in the region of Burgas, west of the municipality of Malko Tarnovo where the last outbreak was reported on 31 January 2011.
(4) It is therefore necessary to prolong the measures laid down in Decision 2011/44/EU, until 30 June 2011.
(5) Decision 2011/44/EU should therefore be amended accordingly.
(6) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,
