1 DATA SHEETS FOR VEHICLE FUELS AND EMISSIONS COUNTRY ASSESSMENT UNDER PROJECTS: CAPACITY BUILDING FOR IMPROVEMENT OF VEHICLE FUEL QUALITY IN THE SEE COUNTRIES AND ADDRESSING CLEAN FUEL AND VEHICLES ISSUES IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE AND TURKEY Project Goal: The project aims at supporting the development of local capacity for elaboration and implementation of strategies and programmes for improvement of vehicle fuel quality and abatement of air pollution from vehicle transport. Objectives of the Assessment: To present the current state of vehicle fuel quality and emissions in the countries of the region, to develop on this basis comparative material, which will enable decision-makers and experts to discuss problems and necessities and define possible solutions at a meeting in the fall of The questionnaire comprises of 5 main chapters: 1. Personal Information 2. Country Specific Data 3. Air Quality 4. Fuel Quality 5. Vehicle Emissions Please read the following instructions before filling in the questionnaire! 1. Additional information is provided to help completion of tables. Please read it carefully before filling in data. 2. Gray table cells are not to be filled in. 3. There are several text box types: a) "Steps towards EU approximation" require information related to consideration and development of new legislation, which will ensure full transposition of EU legislation. b) "Technical assistance for EU approximation" requires information related to Phare, bilateral, twinning, etc. projects. Please specify project title, time period, donors and implementing institutions. 4. We propose to use 2003 as a reporting year. If data for 2003 is not yet publicized, and the available information is for a previous year, please insert this information pointing the particular year in the relevant cell or giving the year in a footmark. 5. Many question sets follow the formats for reporting required by EU Directives. You may not find available all required data. Please, fill in the available data: a) If there are data gaps, insert N/A in the respective table cell; b) If such data is not measured, monitored or reported in your country, insert N/R in the respective table cell; c) Please, use the text boxes to present any useful information, which is not covered by the tables or which needs additional description. 1.
