1.

Member States shall take the necessary measures to ensure that transformers containing more than 0,05 % by weight of PCBs are decontaminated under the following conditions: the objective of the decontamination must be to reduce the level of PCBs to less than 0,05 % by weight and, if possible, to no more than 0,005 % by weight; the replacement fluid not containing PCBs must entail markedly lesser risks; the replacement of the fluid must not compromise the subsequent disposal of the PCBs; the labelling of the transformer after its decontamination must be replaced by the labelling specified in the Annex hereto.
