however, non-potable water may be used for steam production, fire fighting, cooling refrigeration equipment and removing waste feathers in the slaughterhouse provided that the pipes installed for this purpose preclude the use of such water for other purposes and present no danger of contamination of fresh meat.

Process water shall only carry feedingstuffs or foodstuffs material and shall be technically free from cleaning agents, disinfectants or other substances not authorised by the animal nutrition legislation.

To enforce the economical and justified exploitation of fresh water resources, especially of highquality ones. This can be achieved, for example, by closing industrial water cycles, introducing dry technologies, etc.

Additional mechanism for achieving the objectives in this field will be the drawing-up of eco-technological standards and criteria for introducing appropriate technologies for wastewater treatment, waste sludge management and drinking water supply, as well as the formulation of criteria for finding locations for relevant facilities.

The protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights should contribute to the promotion of technological innovation and to the transfer and dissemination of technology, to the mutual advantage of producers and users of technological knowledge and in a manner conducive to social and economic welfare, and to a balance of rights and obligations.

This cooperation may be undertaken in such fields as basic science, environmental protection, medical sciences and health, agriculture, engineering research, energy, natural resources and their useful utilization, standards and measurements science, science and technology policy and management, and other areas of science and technology as may be agreed by the Joint Board established in accordance with Articles VIII and IX of this Agreement.

(d) promotion among the affected country Parties of Africa and its subregions, as well as with other affected regions, of exchange of information and appropriate techniques, technical know-how and relevant experience; promotion of scientific and technological cooperation particularly in the fields of climatology, meteorology, hydrology, water resource development and alternative energy sources; coordination of sub-regional and regional research activities; and identification of regional priorities for research and development;

This trend is also noticeable in articles dealing with reproductive technologies, which too often emphasize technological solutions.

Moreover, technological developments and in particular the advent of the Information Society lead to the conclusion that the territorial approach to some of these services is outdated and that they should be considered from a cross-border perspective.

However, a non-potable water supply is authorized in exceptional cases for steam production, fire fighting and the cooling of refrigeration equipment, provided that the pipes installed for this purpose preclude the use of this water for other purposes and present no risk of contamination of fresh meat.

Authorised oenological practices and processes shall exclude the addition of water, except where required by specific technical necessity, as well as the addition of alcohol, except for fresh grape must with fermentation arrested by the addition of alcohol, liqueur wine, sparkling wine, wine fortified for distillation and, in conditions to be determined, semi-sparkling wine.

Technological and market developments make it necessary to review these obligations on a regular basis, either by a Member State for its national market or the Commission for the Community, in particular to determine whether there is justification for extending obligations to new gateways, such as electronic programme guides (EPGs) and application program interfaces (APIs), to the extent that is necessary to ensure accessibility for end-users to specified digital broadcasting services.

Moreover, the growing international dimension of the coal market and the global scale of the problems confronting it means that the European Union has to take a leading role in meeting challenges relating to modern techniques, mine safety and environmental protection at worldwide level by ensuring the transfer of know-how required for further technological progress, improved working conditions (health and safety) and enhanced environmental protection.

knowledge essential to the organization's service, research equipment, techniques or management.

It is also necessary to take into account the fact that technological progress and scientific developments have made available new types of additives, such as those to be used on silage or in water.

The means referred to in paragraph 3 of this Annex shall in particular include minimization of production of wastes by processing techniques, recirculation and reuse of processing water, developing of water economy and improvement of qualifications for water treatment.

Drinking water must be used to cool containers after heat treatment, without prejudice to the presence of any chemical additives used in accordance with good technological practice to prevent corrosion of the equipment and containers;

Without harmonisation at Community level, legislative activities at national level which have already been initiated in a number of Member States in order to respond to the technological challenges might result in significant differences in protection and thereby in restrictions on the free movement of services and products incorporating, or based on, intellectual property, leading to a refragmentation of the internal market and legislative inconsistency.
