DECLARATION
of 16 December 2002
laying down the values of the specific emission limits for pollutants, the central regulatory order and the manner in which it is to be operated, including a list of stationary sources subject to regulation, the principles for drawing up and operating regional and local regulatory regulations and the manner and extent of making available information on the level of air pollution to the public
According to Section 55 (3) of Act No. 86 / 2002 Coll., on Air Protection and on the amendment of certain other laws (Air Protection Act), ("the Act '), the Ministry of the Environment provides for the implementation of Sections 8 (12) and 36 (5) of the Act:
Subject matter
This decree sets out the values of the specific limit of imitation pollutants, the central regulatory order and the manner in which it is to be operated, including a list of stationary sources subject to regulation, the principles for the development and operation of regional and local regulatory regulations and the manner and extent of making available information on the level of air pollution to the public in accordance with European Community law. 1)
Basic concepts
For the purposes of this decree:
(a) the regulatory rules - a set of measures referred to in Annexes 2 and 3, including warnings or warnings to the public and measures for the time-limited regulation of air pollution sources by their operators, which are involved in air pollution in a decisive way;
(b) the management centre - the legal person set up by the Ministry of the Environment (hereinafter referred to as "Ministry") and the authorities of the regions (hereinafter referred to as "regional authorities") and the authorities of the municipalities (hereinafter referred to as "municipalities"), which declare a warning signal in the event of a smog situation (hereinafter referred to as "warning signal"), a signal in the event of a smog situation (hereinafter referred to as "warning signal"),
(c) suspended PM10 particles - particles that pass through a size-selective input filter showing a 50% aerodynamic mean of 10 µm separation efficiency.
Special imitation limits
(1) The specific imitation limits are declared for sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, suspended particles PM10 and tropospheric ozone. The summary and the values of the special imitation limits are set out in Annex 1.
(2) In the event of the specific imitation limits being exceeded, the air protection authorities shall act in accordance with the central regulatory rules, regional and local regulatory rules set out in Annexes 2 and 3.
Central, Regional and Local Regulatory Regulations
(1) The Central, Regional and Local Regulatory Regulations are based on:
(a) a set of information on the location and parameters of sources of air pollution, on air pollution derived from automated measuring network data and on the state of dispersion conditions; and
(b) forecasts of dispersion conditions.
Such regulatory arrangements shall be operated on the basis of two-stage signals for the preparation or initiation of regulatory measures and warnings. A lower-level signal is a warning signal. A higher level signal is a control signal and a warning signal.
(2) The binding texts of the announcement and withdrawal of warning, warning and regulation signals are set out in Annex 4. The information to be communicated to the public when the warning signal, the warning signal and the control signal are announced shall be as set out in Annex 5.
(3) The central regulatory order and the principles of the development and operation of regional and local regulatory rules under Article 8 (5) and (6) of the Act are set out in Annexes 2 and 3.
(4) The legal person set up by the Ministry shall ensure the central collection and processing of data and forecasts on air pollution by means of data from an automated measuring network and the state and forecast of dispersion conditions.
Information to the public
(1) Current information on the level of air pollution (Section 36 (5) of the Act) in order to protect human health is made available by a legal person established by the Ministry at least once a day in an appropriate way, such as radio, television, press, publications, computer networks and other mass media.
(2) The information referred to in paragraph 1 shall mean information on the level of pollution by sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide and nitrogen oxides, suspended by PM10 particles, tropospheric ozone and carbon monoxide.
(3) Information on air pollution by sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, suspended PM10 particles and tropospheric ozone is made available to the public once an hour.
(4) Information on the level of pollution by benzene and ammonia as referred to in paragraph 1 shall be made available at least once a month and information on the level of pollution by lead and cadmium every 3 months.
(5) Information on air pollution by substances other than those referred to in paragraphs 2 to 4 is made available to the public once a month in the event of the annual limits being exceeded, in other cases once a year.
(6) The Ministry or the legal person established by it publishes the level of excess of the limit of imitation, the target limit and the long-term objective for tropospheric ozone (2), both in terms of protection of human health and in terms of protection of vegetation. In addition, it shall be made public that the special imitation limits are exceeded for the purpose of announcing warning signals, warning signals and control signals.
