Article 4
1. The Contracting Parties shall implement these programmes and measures by 1 January 1986. 2. Contracting Parties shall communicate to the Commission the text of the provisions of internal law which they adopt in the field governed by these programmes and measures. N° L 375/ 30. 12. 85 00 ANNEX I Limit values, time limits by which they must be complied with, and the procedure for monitoring discharges 1.The limit values and the time limits for the industrial sectors concerned are set out together in the table below: >TABLE> 00 2.Limit values expressed as concentrations which in principle must not be exceeded are given in the above table for the industrial sectors 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. In no instance may limit values expressed as maximum concentrations be greater than those expressed as maximum quantities divided by water requirements per kilogram of cadmium handled. However, because the concentration of cadmium in effluents depends on the volume of water involved, which differs for different processes and plants, the limit values, expressed in terms of the quantity of cadmium discharged in relation to the quantity of mercury handled, given in the above table, must be complied with in all cases. 3.The daily average limit values are twice the corresponding monthly average limit values given in the above table. 4.A monitoring procedure must be instituted to check whether the discharges comply with the emission standards which have been fixed in accordance with the limit values laid down in this Annex. This procedure must provide for the taking and analysis of samples and for measurement of the flow of the discharge and the quantity of cadmium handled. Should the quantity of cadmium handled be impossible to determine, the monitoring procedure may be based on the quantity of cadmium that may be used in the light of the production capacity on which the authorization was based. 5.A sample representative of the discharge over a period of 24 hours shall be taken. The quantity of cadmium discharged over a month must be calculated on the basis of the daily quantities of cadmium discharged. However, a simplified monitoring procedure may be instituted in the case of industrial plants which do not discharge more than 10 kilograms of cadmium per annum. In the case of industrial electroplating plants, a simpliefid monitoring procedure may only be instituted if the total volume of the electroplating tanks is less than 1,5 m3.
