Appendix to annex I

1.Cod selectivity in the North Sea and Skagerrak

1.1.

Member States shall take measures to distribute, in the course of the year 2010, the use of cod quotas by vessels flying their flag, operating in the North Sea and Skagerrak and using bottom trawls, Danish seines and similar towed gear, with the exception of beam trawls, and to limit cod discards by those vessels, in accordance with conditions set out in points 1.2 to 1.6.

1.2.

Member States shall adapt the use of the gears mentioned in point 1.1 in respect of the utilisation of their cod quotas. For this purpose, Member States shall establish utilisation targets of their cod quotas by the end of each quarter of 2010, and communicate these to the Commission by 1 February 2010.

1.3.

If, at the end of any of the first three quarters of 2010, the utilisation of the cod quota is more than 10 % above the target quantity, the Member State concerned shall put in place measures to ensure that its vessels referred to in point 1.1 apply technical changes to their fishing gears deployed which allow for a reduction in cod by-catches to such an extent as sufficient to meet the target for the utilisation of the quota at the end of the following quarter.

1.4.

Within one month from the end of the quarter in which the target quantity has been exceeded, Member States shall inform the Commission of the measures referred to in point 1.3, outlining the technical changes that are to be introduced to the gears and the vessels that will be affected, together with supporting evidence of the likely effect on catch rates of cod.

1.5.

Where the cod quota of a Member State has been utilised up to a level of 90 % at any time before 15 October 2010, it shall be obligatory for all vessels of that Member State referred to in point 1.1 using gears with a mesh size of 80 mm or greater, with the exception of vessels using Danish seines, to use for the remainder of the year the fishing gear described in Appendix 4 to Annex III of Regulation (EC) No 43/2009 or any other gear the technical attributes of which result in similar catch rates of cod, as confirmed by STECF, or, for vessels targeting Norway lobster, a sorting grid as described in Appendix 3 to that Annex or any other gear with a proven equivalent escapement capability.

1.6.

Notwithstanding point 1.5, Member States may also apply the measures referred to in that point to individual vessels or to groups of vessels that, at any time before 15 November 2010, have used 90 % of the part of the national cod quota that was made available to them in accordance with the national method of allocating fishing opportunities.

1.7.

Notwithstanding points 1.3 and 1.5, Member States may also apply the measures referred to in those points with respect to individual vessels or to groups of vessels to which part of the national cod quota has been made available in accordance with the national method of allocating fishing opportunities.

2.Cod selectivity in Eastern Channel

2.1.

Member States shall take measures to distribute, in the course of the year 2010, the use of cod quotas by vessels flying their flag, operating in the Eastern Channel and using bottom trawls, Danish seines and similar towed gear, with the exception of beam trawls, and to limit cod discards by those vessels, in accordance with conditions set out in points 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4.

2.2.

Member States shall adapt the use of the gears mentioned in point 2.1 in respect of the utilisation of its cod quota. For this purpose, Member States shall establish utilisation targets of its cod quotas by the end of each quarter of 2010, and communicate these to the Commission by 1 February 2010.

2.3.

If, at the end of any of the second and third quarters of 2010, the utilisation of the cod quota is more than 10 % above the target quantity, the Member State concerned shall put in place measures, including real time closures, to ensure that the vessels referred to in point 2.1 flying their flag avoid cod by-catches and target non quota species, to such an extent as sufficient to meet the target for the utilisation of the cod quota at the end of the following quarter.

2.4.

On request from the Commission, Member States shall inform the Commission of the measures referred to in point 2.3.
