(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Whereas:

(1)

In accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 272/2009 of 2 April 2009 supplementing the common basic standards on civil aviation security laid down in the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 300/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2), the Commission recognises the equivalence of aviation security standards of third countries under the condition that the criteria set out in that Regulation are met.

(2)

The Commission has verified that the United States of America fulfil the criteria set out in Part E of Annex to Regulation (EC) No 272/2009.

(3)

The Commission should notify without delay the appropriate national authorities responsible for aviation security if it has information suggesting that security standards applied by the third country with a significant impact on overall levels of aviation security in the Union are no longer equivalent to common basic standards on aviation security.

(4)

The appropriate authorities of the Member States should be notified without delay when the Commission has credible information about actions taken to re-establish the equivalency of relevant aviation security standards including compensatory measures applied by the third country.

(5)

Commission Regulation (EU) No 185/2010 (3) should therefore be amended accordingly.

(6)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Civil Aviation Security,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The Annex to Regulation (EU) No 185/2010 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2
