PRILOGA II Reševanje sporov z arbitražo iz 22. člena tega sporazuma je določeno, kot sledi:

1) Stranki v sporu glede razlage in uporabe sporazuma uradno obvestita sekretariat Savske komisije o soglasju, da bosta spor reševali na arbitražnem sodišču. 2) Uradno obvestilo navaja zadevo za arbitražo, vključno s členom (členi) sporazuma, katerega (katerih) razlaga ali uporaba je sporna. 3) Ko sekretariat Savske komisije prejme uradno obvestilo o reševanju spora pred arbitražnim sodiščem, ga v 15 dneh po datumu prejema pošlje vsem pogodbenicam sporazuma.

1) Arbitražno sodišče sestavljajo tri člani. Vsaka stranka v sporu imenuje enega razsodnika. Razsodnika, ki ju imenujeta stranki v sporu, nato s skupnim soglasjem imenujeta razsodnika, ki je predsednik arbitražnega sodišča. 2) Če eno stran v sporu sestavljata dve ali več pogodbenic sporazuma, te skupaj imenujejo enega člana arbitražnega sodišča. 3) Predsednik arbitražnega sodišča ne sme biti državljan nobene pogodbenice sporazuma, ne sme imeti stalnega prebivališča ali biti zaposlen v kateri od strank v sporu in s sporno zadevo ne sme biti predhodno kakor koli povezan. 4) Če se imenovana razsodnika v dveh mesecih po imenovanju drugega razsodnika ne moreta sporazumeti o izbiri predsednika arbitražnega sodišča, lahko vsaka stranka v sporu od predsednika Meddržavnega sodišča zahteva, da v skladu z drugim odstavkom tega člena v dveh mesecih imenuje predsednika arbitražnega sodišča. 5) Če stranka svojega razsodnika ni imenovala v dveh mesecih po tem, ko je bilo uradno obvestilo iz 1. člena te priloge dostavljeno sekretariatu Savske komisije, lahko druga stranka o tem obvesti predsednika Meddržavnega sodišča, ki v dveh mesecih določi predsednika arbitražnega sodišča. Ko je predsednik arbitražnega sodišča tako določen, od stranke, ki ni imenovala razsodnika, zahteva, da to stori v dveh mesecih. Če ta stranka tega ne stori, predsednik arbitražnega sodišča o tem obvesti predsednika Meddržavnega sodišča, ki opravi imenovanje v dveh mesecih.

1) Arbitražno sodišče sprejme svojo odločitev v skladu z mednarodnim pravom in tem sporazumom. 2) Arbitražno sodišče sestavi svoj poslovnik. 3) O postopkih in vsebinskih vprašanjih arbitražnega sodišča se odloča z večino glasov.

1) Arbitražno sodišče lahko uporablja vsa sredstva, potrebna za ugotavljanje dejstev. 2) Stranki v sporu zagotovita, da je storjeno vse potrebno za učinkovito vodenje arbitražnega postopka.

Stranki in člani arbitražnega sodišča morajo spoštovati zaupnost vseh zaupnih informacij, ki so jih prejeli med postopkom.

Če se katera od strank v sporu ne udeleži postopka, se ta kljub temu lahko nadaljuje.

1) Pogodbenica sporazuma, ki ima pravni interes v predmetu spora, na katerega bi odločitev arbitražnega sodišča lahko vplivala, sme z odobritvijo arbitražnega sodišča poseči v postopek. 2) Odločitev arbitražnega sodišča zavezuje vsako pogodbenico, ki je posegla v postopek, kot je opisano v prvem odstavku tega člena.

Arbitražno sodišče sprejme svojo odločitev v petih mesecih po začetku obravnave, razen če ne ugotovi, da je treba ta rok podaljšati za največ pet mesecev.

1) Odločitev arbitražnega sodišča vključuje utemeljitev. 2) Ta odločitev zavezuje obe stranki v sporu. 3) Arbitražno sodišče pošlje svojo odločitev strankama v sporu in sekretariatu Savske komisije, ki jo nato pošlje vsem pogodbenicam sporazuma.

Če se stranki v sporu ne moreta sporazumeti o razlagi ali izvajanju odločitve arbitražnega sodišča, lahko vsaka stranka zahteva, da ji arbitražno sodišče pomaga pri rešitvi. Če arbitražno sodišče ni na voljo, lahko stranki zahtevata, da se na enak način, kot je bilo ustanovljeno prvo arbitražno sodišče, ustanovi še eno arbitražno sodišče, da bi pomagalo pri rešitvi.

1) Vsaka stranka v sporu krije svoje stroške. 2) Stranki v sporu v enakem deležu krijeta stroške arbitražnega postopka, vključno z izdatki za razsodnike. Arbitražno sodišče ima svojo evidenco o izdatkih in jo v skladu s svojim poslovnikom predloži strankama kot prilogo k svoji odločitvi. Na podlagi določb šestega odstavka 10. člena Okvirnega sporazuma o Savskem bazenu (v nadaljnjem besedilu sporazum) so se Bosna in Hercegovina, Republika Hrvaška, Republika Slovenija in Zvezna republika Jugoslavija (v nadaljnjem besedilu pogodbenice) sporazumele, kot sledi:

Plovba po reki Savi od rečnega kilometra 0,00 do rečnega kilometra 586,00, po reki Kolubari od rečnega kilometra 0,00 do rečnega kilometra 5,00, po reki Drini od rečnega kilometra 0,00 do rečnega kilometra 15,00, po reki Bosni od rečnega kilometra 0,00 do rečnega kilometra 5,00, po reki Vrbas od rečnega kilometra 0,00 do rečnega kilometra 3,00, po reki Uni od rečnega kilometra 0,00 do rečnega kilometra 15,00 in po reki Kupi od rečnega kilometra 0,00 do rečnega kilometra 5,00 poteka v skladu z določbami 10. člena Okvirnega sporazuma o Savskem bazenu.

1) Pristojni organi pogodbenic skrbijo za carinske, policijske in sanitarne postopke ter pravila o teh postopkih pošljejo Savski komisiji, ki pomaga pri njihovem usklajevanju. 2) Carinska, policijska in sanitarna pravila, ki se nanašajo na plovbo po rekah iz 1. člena tega protokola, se za plovila uporabljajo ne glede na državno pripadnost. Ta pravila so taka, da ne ovirajo plovbe. 3) Carinske in mejne formalnosti se opravljajo na krajih, ki jih določijo pristojni organi pogodbenic. Pogodbenice obvestijo Savsko komisijo o lokaciji teh krajev.

Pristojni organi pogodbenic nadzorujejo plovbo na enotni podlagi v skladu s sklepi Savske komisije in notranjimi predpisi pogodbenic.

1) Če sta oba bregova reke iz 1. člena tega protokola na ozemlju ene pogodbenice, ima ta pogodbenica pravico, da zapečati pošiljke v tranzitu ali jih da pod nadzor pristojnih organov. Poleg tega ima ta pogodbenica pravico, da od poveljnika ali naročnika prevoza blaga zahteva pisno izjavo, s katero preveri, ali prevaža pošiljke, katerih uvoz v zadevno državo je prepovedan, nima pa pravice, da bi prepovedala prevažanje takih pošiljk. Ti postopki se ne smejo uporabiti zato, da bi bile navedene pošiljke pregledane, in tudi ne smejo preprečiti tranzita in/ali povzročiti zamude v tranzitu. Poveljnik ali naročnik prevoza blaga, ki predloži nepravilno izjavo, je odgovoren zanjo in za vse možne posledice v skladu s pravom pogodbenice organom, za katere je bila taka izjava dana. 2) Če reka iz 1. člena tega protokola oblikuje mejo med dvema pogodbenicama, so plovila, potniki in pošiljke v tranzitu oproščeni vseh mejnih formalnosti med tranzitom.

Med plovbo lahko plovila uporabljajo ladijsko in obalno opremo za sporočila, povezana s plovbo, na način, ki ga predpiše Savska komisija.

1) Pogodbenice si medsebojno priznavajo ladijske listine in listine o usposobljenosti posadke, vključno s spričevalom za upravljanje plovila. 2) Temeljna tehnična pravila o plovilih in pogoje za pridobitev spričevala za upravljanje plovila določi Savska komisija.

1) Da bi zagotavljala varnost plovbe, Savska komisija sprejema letne in večletne načrte za označevanje plovnih vodnih poti in opravlja dejavnosti iz četrtega odstavka 10. člena sporazuma. 2) Savska komisija določa pravila o dolžini plovne poti v skladu z mednarodno kategorizacijo. 3) Če reka iz 1. člena tega protokola oblikuje mejo med dvema pogodbenicama, se pogodbenici dogovorita o načinu opravljanja dejavnosti in izvajanja ukrepov iz četrtega odstavka 10. člena sporazuma. 4) Savska komisija določi način za označevanje plovne vodne poti na rekah iz 1. člena tega protokola.
