1. Where a piece of measurement equipment within the continuous emissions monitoring system is out of operation for more than five consecutive days in any calendar year, the operator shall inform the competent authority without undue delay and propose adequate measures to improve the quality of the continuous emissions monitoring system affected.

It is very desirable that any local or individual measuring and monitoring systems that are put in place should be consistent with the national and international measuring and monitoring systems so that data can be readily aggregated and disaggregated and the contribution of different policies and of actions by different actors can be compared and assessed.

Although this is not the immediate purpose of the present regulation it is very important that this requirement should be fully taken into account in the development of national and European monitoring systems so that a fully coherent monitoring system at all levels can be developed.
