THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1216/2009 of 30 November 2009 laying down the trade arrangements applicable to certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products(1), and in particular Article 7(2) thereof,
Having regard to Council Decision 2004/859/EC of 25 October 2004 concerning the conclusion of an Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters between the European Community and the Kingdom of Norway on Protocol 2 to the bilateral Free Trade Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Kingdom of Norway(2), and in particular Article 3 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Protocol 2 to the bilateral Free Trade Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Kingdom of Norway(3), and Protocol 3 to the EEA Agreement(4), determine the trade arrangements for certain agricultural and processed agricultural products between the Contracting Parties.
(2) Protocol 3 to the EEA Agreement, as amended by Decision 138/2004 of the EEA Joint Committee(5), provides for a zero duty applying to certain waters containing added sugar or other sweetening matter or flavoured, classified under CN code 2202 10 00 and certain other non-alcoholic beverages containing sugar, classified under CN code ex 2202 90 10.
(3) The zero duty for the waters and other beverages in question has been temporarily suspended for Norway by the Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters between the European Community and the Kingdom of Norway concerning Protocol 2 to the bilateral Free Trade Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Kingdom of Norway(6), hereinafter referred to as ‘the Agreement’, approved by Decision 2004/859/EC. According to point IV of the Agreed Minutes of the Agreement, duty free imports of goods of the CN codes 2202 10 00 and ex 2202 90 10 originating in Norway are to be permitted only within the limits of a duty free quota while a duty is to be paid for imports outside the quota allocation.
(4) Commission Regulation (EU) No 1255/2009(7) withdrew the temporary suspension of the duty free regime for the period 1 January to 31 December 2010 for the importation into the Union of the waters and beverages in question.
(5) It is necessary to open the tariff quota for 2011 for the waters and beverages in question. The last annual quota for those products was opened for 2009 by Commission Regulation (EC) No 89/2009(8). As no annual quota was opened for 2010, the quota volume for 2011 should remain the same as for 2009.

It is appropriate to provide that the tariff quota opened by this regulation is to be managed in accordance with those rules.
(7) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for horizontal questions concerning trade in processed products not listed in Annex I,

3.For quantities imported above the quota volume, a preferential duty of EUR 0,047/litre shall apply.
The Union tariff quota referred to in Article 1(1) shall be managed by the Commission in accordance with Articles 308a, 308b and 308c of Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93.
Regulation (EU) No 1255/2009 is repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
