Article 4U.K.

1.Member States shall ensure that a monitoring and sampling programme is applied in bivalve mollusc farms, farming areas and harvested natural beds in order to observe whether there is an abnormal mortality and keep track of the health situation of stocks.

In addition, the official service may apply the above programme to purification centres and storage tanks which discharge water into the sea.

If, during application of this programme, any abnormal mortality is observed, or if the official service has information giving it reason to suspect the presence of diseases, the following measures shall be taken:

  • a list shall be drawn up of the sites where the diseases referred to in Annex A, list II to Directive 91/67/EEC are present, provided that such diseases are not the subject of a programme approved pursuant to the aforementioned Directive,

  • a list shall be drawn up of the sites at which abnormal mortality has been observed as a result of the presence of the diseases referred to in Annex D, or on which the official service has information giving it reason to suspect the presence of diseases,

  • monitoring of the evolution and geographical spread of the diseases referred to in the first and second indents.

2.The detailed rules for implementing this Article, and inter alia the rules to be applied for establishing the programme referred to in paragraph 1, particularly as regards the frequency and timetable of monitoring, procedures for taking samples (statistically representative volume) and methods of diagnosis, shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 10.
