To supplement the primary network, an auxiliary network of 120 stations shall provide information, directly or through a national data centre, to the International Data Centre upon request.

The conditions under which supplementary data from such facilities are made available, and under which the International Data Centre may request further or expedited reporting, or clarifications, shall be elaborated in the operational manual for the respective monitoring network.

the supply of gas or heat to such networks.

the supply of electricity to such networks.

the supply of drinking water to such networks.

or the supply of drinking water, electricity, gas or heat to such networks;

Local authorities, public law bodies or associations of public law bodies or State-controlled undertakings supplying gas or heat to others or operating a general supply network pursuant to Article 2(3) of the Gesetz über die Elektrizitäts- und Gasversorgung (Energiewirtschaftsgesetz) of 24 April 1998, as last amended on 10 November 2001.

Local authorities, public law bodies or associations of public law bodies or State undertakings, supplying electricity to other undertakings or operating a general supply network pursuant to Article 2(3) of the Gesetz über die Elektrizitäts- und Gasversorgung (Energiewirtschaftsgesetz) of 24 April 1998, as last amended on 10 November 2001.

c) supply or operation of the public telecommunication networks, or the provision of telecommunication services,

Computing and networking are now becoming ubiquitous utilities in the same way as electricity or water supply already are.

a) supply or operation of permanent networks intended for the provision of public services related to the production, transfer or distribution of drinking water, electricity, gas and heat or the supply of drinking water, electricity, gas or heat to such networks,

1. supply or operation of fixed networks intended to provide public services connected with the production, transport or distribution of:

Cross-border connections between energy networks are important for ensuring smooth operation of the internal market, security of supply and optimum use of energy infrastructure.

Thanks to the wide radio coverage supplied by the two public cellular systems on the FS railway network, the general train-to-ground communication needs can be satisfied in this way.

All producers, shippers or distributors of gas or heat which supply public networks that provide their services to the public (section 2 b) of Act No. 199/1994 Sb. on Public Procurement).

Being dominant for the network and other services provisions they may account for a purchaser's share high enough to give them dominance as to the demand, i.e. making suppliers dependent on them.

- supply to the public network is aimed only at the economic exploitation of such production and does not exceed 20% of the organisation's average annual revenue in the last years including the current year.

The supply of gas or heat to networks which provide a service to the public by a contracting entity other than a contracting authority shall not be considered a relevant activity within the meaning of paragraph 1 where:

The supply of electricity to networks which provide a service to the public by a contracting entity other than a contracting authority shall not be considered a relevant activity within the meaning of paragraph 3 where:

The supply of drinking water to networks which provide a service to the public by a contracting entity other than a contracting authority shall not be considered a relevant activity within the meaning of paragraph 1 where:

supply to the public network depends only on the entity's own consumption and has not exceeded 30% of the entity's total production of energy, having regard to the average for the preceding three years, including the current year.

(3) It is considered that the user has special and exclusive rights also in the case referred to in Article 97, item 1, when supplying drinking water, electricity, gas or heat to a network which is operated by another concessionaire.

supply to the public network is aimed only at the economic exploitation of such production and amounts to not more than 20 % of the entity's turnover having regard to the average for the preceding three years, including the current year.

The solution for radio train-to-ground communication working today at FS is primarily based on the use of services supplied by the public operator on the analogue (ETACS) and the digital (GSM) mobile cellular networks in the 900 MHz band.

supply to the public network depends only on the entity's own consumption and has not exceeded 30 % of the entity's total production of drinking water, having regard to the average for the preceding three years, including the current year.

The supply of drinking water, electricity, gas or heat to networks providing a public service through a person who is not a contractor under this Act, shall not be considered as an activity within the meaning of Article 103 in the following cases:

- supply to the public network depends only on the concessionaire's own consumption and does not exceed 30% of the concessionaire's total production of drinking water or energy, having regard to the average for the preceding three years, including the current year,

The aim is to establish a regulatory framework, in accordance with internal market principles, for the relationships between suppliers of networks and services that will result in sustainable competition, interoperability of electronic communications services and consumer benefits.

Nor does the fact that an entity supplies drinking water, electricity, gas or heat to a network which is itself operated by an entity enjoying special or exclusive rights granted by a competent authority of the Member State concerned in itself constitute an exclusive or special right within the meaning of this Directive.

National regulatory authorities may, in accordance with the provisions of Article 8, impose obligations for transparency in relation to interconnection and/or access, requiring operators to make public specified information, such as accounting information, technical specifications, network characteristics, terms and conditions for supply and use, and prices.

Another main reason why it is necessary to coordinate procurement procedures applied by the entities operating in these sectors is the closed nature of the markets in which they operate, due to the existence of special or exclusive rights granted by the Member States concerning the supply to, provision or operation of networks for providing the service concerned.

1. the contractors responsible for the supply or operation of public telecommunications networks or the provision of public telecommunications services, award for the purchase intended exclusively to enable them to provide one or more telecommunications services, and provided other organisations are free to offer those services in the same geographical area under substantially equal conditions,

Taking into account the further opening up of Community postal services to competition and the fact that such services are provided through a network by contracting authorities, public undertakings and other undertakings, contracts awarded by contracting entities providing postal services should be subject to the rules of this Directive, including those in Article 30, which, safeguarding the application of the principles referred to in recital 9, create a framework for sound commercial practice and allow greater flexibility than is offered by Directive 2004/18/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 31 March 2004 on the coordination of procedures for the award of public works contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts(11).

The adjudicating entity shall ask the power supply authority to accept the feedback of braking energy into the supply network, when the energy cannot be absorbed by other railway consumers.

Any new or rebuilt traction unit or infrastructure component (for example power supply equipment, static converter, high-voltage cable) will be integrated in an existing power supply network with traction units.

The compatibility study (or compatibility case) is a process to demonstrate the compatibility of the new rolling stock or the new infrastructure component with the existing traction units and power supply network.
