These procedures are supplementary to those specified by IVAO and/or National documents. 2 AREAS OF RESPONSIBILITY AND DELEGATION OF THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROVISION OF ATS. 2.1 Areas of Responsibility The lateral and vertical limits of the respective areas of responsibility are as follows: 2.1.1 ACC Copenhagen Lateral limits: Copenhagen FIR and airspace delegated to ACC Copenhagen within London FIR/UIR (EGTT), see 2.2. Vertical limits: FL85 to FL660 in Copenhagen FIR FL195 to FL660 in delegated airspace within London FIR/UIR 2.1.2 Amsterdam ACC Lateral limits: Amsterdam FIR Vertical limits: FL245 to FL660 2.1.3 Dutchmil ACC Lateral limits: Amsterdam FIR Vertical limits: FL055 to FL245 2.1.4 Amsterdam FIC Lateral limits: Amsterdam FIR Vertical limits: SFC to FL055

2.2 2.2.1 Delegation of the Responsibility for the Provision of ATS Other areas Within the EGTT UIR/FIRs the responsibility for the provision of ATS in accordance with the airspace classifications has been delegated from Scottish ACC to ACC Copenhagen in an area north west of the line 550000N050000E - 543000N043200E from FL195 to FL660, designated North Sea High Area. See diagram 2.01. The airspacee classification within this area is C. Diagram 2.01 delegated airspace a North Sea High Area Within the indicated area, ATS is provided p by Copenhagen ACCC

ANNEX B AREA OF COMMON INTEREST B.1 Airspace Structure and Classifications within the Area of Common Interest B.1.1 EKDK FIR Area Vertical limits Airspace Classification Copenhagen FIR Surface to FL195 G Copenhagen CTA FL195 to FL660 C B.1.2 EHAA FIR Area Vertical limits Airspace Classification North Sea uncontrolled Surface to FL055 G NW Millingen CTA North FL055 to FL195 A NW Millingen CTA North FL195 to FL245 C Amsterdam UIR FL245 to FL660 C B.2 Sectorisation B.2.1 B.2.1.1 The Sectorisation within the ACI is as follows: Within Copenhagen area of responsibility: EKDK_CTR, Copenhagen Control, 126.055 from FL85 to FL660.

B.2.1.2 Within Amsterdam area of responsibility: If the controller is not available the responsibility for that area transfers in order of writing to the next controller for that area. Traffic in the North Sea uncontrolled area (SFC-FL055): EHAI_CTR, Amsterdam Information, 124.300 EHAA_W_CTR, Amsterdam Radar, 125.750 EHAA_E_CTR, Amsterdam Radar, 124.875 Traffic in the NW Millingen CTA North (FL055-FL245): EHMC_N_CTR, Dutchmil, 125.925 EHMC_S_CTR, Dutchmil, 128.350 EHAA_W_CTR, Amsterdam Radar, 125.750 EHAA_E_CTR, Amsterdam Radar, 124.875 Traffic in the Amsterdam UIR (FL245-FL660): EHAA_W_CTR, Amsterdam Radar, 125.750 EHAA_E_CTR, Amsterdam Radar, 124.875 B.2.2 Temporary changes in sectorisation shall be coordinated with the involved ATS units whenever applicable.

ANNEX D PROCEDURES FOR CO-ORDINATION D.1 ATS-Routes, Co-ordination Points and Level Allocation Available ATS-Routes, COPs to be used and flight allocation to be applied are described in the tables below. D.1.1 Flights from ACC Copenhagen to Amsterdam ACC ATS-Route COP Flight Allocation Special Conditions L619 UL619 SUTEB Odd level, FL270 and above P603 UP603 GREFI Even level, FL260 and above Z705 UZ705 AMADA D.1.2 Flights from Amsterdam ACC to ACC Copenhagen ATS-Route COP Flight Allocation Special Conditions UL619 L619 SUTEB Even level, FL260 and above UP603 P603 UZ733 P603 GREFI Odd level, FL210 and above UZ704 Z704 AMADA Odd level, FL250 and above D.2 Special procedures D.2.1 The North Sea area inside the EHAA FIR consists mainly of military practice areas which can be activated and will then have limited to no availability for crossing civil flights. Activation of these areas will be done only by NL-Staff and communicated to the XN-Staff for publication and notification of the procedures in effect. D.3 VFR flights VFR flights within EHAA FIR/UIR is not allowed above FL55. Any VFR flights entering EHAA FIR at or below FL55 will be in G airspace. Prior coordination for this traffic is not required. D.4 Helicopter operations in the lower airspace If operating under IFR flight rules helicopter operations in the lower airspace over the North Sea shall be coordinated individually. Operations under VFR shall be treated as in point D.3

ANNEX E TRANSFER OF CONTROL AND TRANSFER OF COMMUNICATIONS E.1 Transfer of Control The transfer of control takes place at the coordination points specified in D.1. E.2 Transfer of Communications The transfer of communications shall take place not later than two minutes before the transfer of control unless otherwise coordinated.

ANNEX F RADAR BASED CO-ORDINATION PROCEDURES F.1 Silent Transfer of Radar Control Silent transfer of radar control (transfer without prior coordination) between Amsterdam ACC and ACC Copenhagen may take place provided that at least 2000FT or 20NM of separation exists between traffic and levels are assigned in accordance with section D.1. F.1.1 Reduced separation A smaller separation than that specified in F.1 may only be used after prior coordination between the relevant ATC units.
