1.Immediately following an outbreak of HPAI, the competent authority shall establish:
(a)a protection zone with a radius of at least three kilometres around the holding;
(b)a surveillance zone with a radius of at least 10 kilometres around the holding, including the protection zone.

(a)the epidemiological inquiry;
(b)the geographical situation, particularly natural boundaries;
(c)the location and proximity of holdings and the estimated number of poultry;
(d)patterns of movements and trade in poultry, other captive birds;
(e)the facilities and personnel available to control any movement within the protection and surveillance zones of poultry or other captive birds, their carcases, manure, bedding or used litter, in particular if the poultry or other captive birds to be killed and disposed of have to be moved from their holding of origin.
4.The competent authority may establish further restricted zones around or adjacent to the protection and surveillance zones, taking account of the criteria provided for in paragraph 3.
