THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 November 2013 on ship recycling and amending Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 and Directive 2009/16/ECnote, and in particular Article 16(4) thereof,Whereas:
(1)Article 6(2), point (a), of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 requires ship owners to ensure that ships destined to be recycled are only recycled at ship recycling facilities included in the European List of ship recycling facilities (‘European List’) published pursuant to Article 16(2) of that Regulation.
(2)The European List is set out in Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/2323note.
(3)The authorisation of NV Galloo Recycling Ghent, a ship recycling facility located in Belgium is due to expire on 31 March 2025. The Commission has received information from the competent authorities in Belgium that the authorisation to conduct ship recycling granted to that facility has been renewed for a period of five years prior to its expiry, in accordance with Article 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013. Furthermore, the competent authorities in Belgium informed the Commission that the facility NV Galloo Recycling Ghent has changed name to NV Galloo and has notified new maximum ship dimensions that the facility can accept. The European List should therefore be updated to reflect those changes.
(4)The authorisation of Jatob Frederikshavn ApS, a ship recycling facility located in Denmark is due to expire on 9 March 2025. The competent authorities in Denmark informed the Commission that the authorisation to conduct ship recycling granted to that facility has been renewed for a period of five years prior to its expiry, in accordance with Article 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013. They also informed about a change to the maximum annual ship recycling output. The European List should therefore be updated to reflect those changes.
(5)The authorisation of Les Recycleurs Bretons-Navaléo, a ship recycling facility located in France is due to expire on 19 June 2025. The Commission has received information from the competent authorities in France that the authorisation to conduct ship recycling granted to that facility has been renewed for a period of five years prior to its expiry, in accordance with Article 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013. Furthermore, the competent authorities in France informed the Commission about changes in the contact details of the ship recycling facility Les Recycleurs Bretons-Navaléo and new maximum ship dimensions that the facility can accept. The European List should therefore be updated to reflect those changes.
(6)The competent authorities in the Netherlands have informed the Commission that the ship recycling facility Sagro Aannemingsmaatschappij Zeeland B.V. located in the Netherlands has been authorised in accordance with Article 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013. The Netherlands has provided the Commission with all information relevant for that facility to be included in the European List. That ship recycling facility should therefore be included in the European List.
(7)The inclusion in the European List of Galaksis N., a ship recycling facility located in Latvia, expired on 17 July 2024. The competent authorities in Latvia have informed the Commission about the change of the operator of the ship recycling facility and requested to reflect the change of the name of the facility accordingly, the other conditions of the permit remaining unchanged. However, since the authorisation to conduct ship recycling was granted for an unlimited period, it was not issued in accordance with Article 14 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013. Therefore, the requested changes should not be included and Galaksis N. should be removed from the European List.
(8)The authorisation of UAB Vakarų refonda, a ship recycling facility located in Lithuania is due to expire on 30 April 2025 and the competent authority in Lithuania informed the Commission that the permit was withdrawn upon request of the facility. That ship recycling facility should therefore be removed from the European List.
(9)The inclusion in the European List of BLRT Refonda Baltic OÜ, a ship recycling facility located in Estonia is due to expire on 15 February 2026. The competent authorities in Estonia have informed the Commission about the change of the operator of the ship recycling facility to Metruna OÜ and requested to reflect the change of the name of the facility accordingly, the other conditions of the permit remaining unchanged. The European List should therefore be updated to reflect that change.
(10)The Commission has received an application to be included in the European List, in accordance with Article 15(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 for Temurtaşlar Gemi Söküm İthalat İhracat San. Ve Tic. A.Ş., a ship recycling facility located in Türkiye. Having assessed the information and supporting evidence provided and gathered in accordance with Article 15 of that Regulation, the Commission considers that the facility complies with the requirements set out in Article 13 of that Regulation to conduct ship recycling and to be included in the European List. Temurtaşlar Gemi Söküm İthalat İhracat San. Ve Tic. A.Ş. should therefore be included in the European List.
(11)The inclusion in the European List of Sök Denizcilik Tic. Ltd. Şti. and Öge Gemi Söküm İth. İhr.Tİc. San. A.Ş., ship recycling facilities located in Türkiye, are due to expire on 12 February 2025. The Commission has received information from those facilities that they wish to renew their inclusion in the European List in accordance with Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013. Having assessed the information and supporting evidence provided and gathered in accordance with Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013, including through inspections, the Commission considers that the facilities comply with the requirements set out in Article 13 of that Regulation to conduct ship recycling and to be included in the European List. The inclusion of those ship recycling facilities in the European List should therefore be renewed.
(12)The inclusion in the European List of Ege Celik San. Ve Tic A.Ş., a ship recycling facility located in Turkiye is due to expire on 12 February 2025. The Commission has received information from that facility that it wishes to renew its inclusion in the European List in accordance with Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013. Having assessed the information and supporting evidence provided and gathered in accordance with Article 15 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013, including through inspections, the Commission considers that the facility has failed to comply with certain requirements of Article 13(1), points (e), (f), (g) and (i) of that Article. The facility has failed to take adequate measures to maintain the hull integrity in order to control any leakage in the intertidal zone. The facility cut the primary hull while below the drainage line without the use of a slag collector and handled waste on the shoreline without an impermeable floor. The facility also failed to follow their own procedures aimed at ensuring that possible flammable materials are removed prior to cutting, which has posed a high risk to the safety of workers. Ege Celik San. Ve Tic A.Ş. should therefore be removed from the European List.
(13)Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/2323 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(14)The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 25 of Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1#
The Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/2323 is replaced by the text in the Annex to this Decision.
Article 2#
This Decision shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
