    opening tendering procedure No 40/2001 EC for the sale of wine alcohol for new industrial uses

    THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

    Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

    Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine(1), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2826/2000(2),

    Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 1623/2000 of 25 July 2000 laying down detailed rules for implementing Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 on the common organisation of the market in wine with regard to market mechanisms(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 545/2001(4), and in particular Article 80 thereof,

    Whereas:

    (1) Regulation (EC) No 1623/2000 lays down, inter alia, the detailed rules for disposing of stocks of alcohol arising from distillation under Articles 27, 28 and 30 of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999 held by intervention agencies.

    (2) Tendering procedures should be organised for the sale of wine alcohol for new industrial uses with a view to reducing the stocks of wine alcohol in the Community and enabling small-scale industrial projects to be carried out and such alcohol to be processed into goods intended for export for industrial uses. The wine alcohol of Community origin in storage in the Member States consists of quantities produced from distillation under Articles 35, 36 and 39 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 822/87 of 16 March 1987 on the common organisation of the market in wine(5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1677/1999(6), as well as Articles 27 and 28 of Regulation (EC) No 1493/1999.

    (3) Since the adoption of Council Regulation (EC) No 2799/98 of 15 December 1998 establishing agrimonetary arrangements for the euro(7), the prices offered in tenders and securities must be expressed in euro and payments must be made in euro.

    (4) Minimum prices should be fixed for the submission of tenders, broken down according to the type of end-use.

    (5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Wine,
