And with it any hope left for EUO longs blows away..... see:

CM2 designated as best in class and CM5 only one ISO accredited (GFI)-page 22-

remember the clame to fame for GFI was having just the ISO certificate precisely refered to on this EU paper..... Eurocontrol's ISO 17025 accredited Petromark™ molecular fuel marking system.

From pg 52 of this July/17 report it appears CM5 is the current Euoromarker which performed poorly. No surpise they wish to replace it.

WRONG - the decision has not been made, all 4 candidate markers were forwarded to EU SCHEER for environmental review and draft results are to be presented at their 1/22 meeting. If you read the whole table on page 22 you would take note those methods were for laboratory confirmation testing methods and CM 5 says "Euromarker reference method" all over it...that is obviously SY124.....read

This comment didn’t grow on my dirt, it grew on the dirt of a certain TAXUD Policy Officer who has been very helpful in the past as you well know. To repeat

what a load of BS from Zen on the environmental impact thing, going through my commnications with EU officials nowhere says anything about that. SCHER has given their opinion on another candidate other than GFI being the superior and here´s whats to follow next:  I can confirm that the evaluation of new candidate markers is on-going and we expect a report in the first quarter of this

El Canadiense (Putzpuh), here is the SCHEER Committee Draft agenda for the SCHEER January 22 meeting, right at the top of the page is the link to the PDF: https://ec.europa.eu/health/scientific_committees/scheer/minutes_plenary_en On that PDF you can see this bullet point under item#2: Draft Scientific advice on Safety, health and environmental risks associated with the use of four candidates for

Dear Zencot, you take the concept of "grasping at straws" to a whole new ball game ! Enjoy the show while it lasts, only 2 years before shop shuts down....
