Questions referred
Must paragraph 6.6(a) of Annex I to Directive 96/61/EC (1), which applies to installations for the intensive rearing of poultry with more than 40 000 places, be interpreted:
1. |
as including within its scope quails, partridges and pigeons; and, if so, |
2. |
as authorising a mechanism for calculating authorisation thresholds on the basis of a system of ‘animal-equivalents’, which gives weighting to the number of animals per place according to species so that account may be taken of the amount of nitrogen actually excreted by the various species? |
(1) Council Directive 96/61/EC of 24 September 1996 concerning integrated pollution prevention and control (OJ 1996 L 257, p. 26).
