Changes from report parliamentary committee draft to plenary report

AddedAnnex I – paragraph 1 – point 10 a (new), Annex V – point 1.3.4. – paragraph 4: (10a) In point 1.3.4, paragraph 4 is amended as follows: / "Monitoring frequencies shall be selected, and increased if necessary, to take account of the variability in parameters resulting from both natural and anthropogenic conditions. Furthermore, the times at which monitoring is undertaken shall be selected so as to take account of the impact on the status assessment of seasonal fluctuations in substance use and of variation in water levels and thus ensure that the results reflect changes in the water body caused by anthropogenic pressure and by climatic variation. As regards priority substances that are sensitive to climatic variations and priority substances whose concentration is likely to peak over short periods as a result of seasonal fluctuations in the use of these substances, the monitoring shall be carried out more frequently than for other substances."

AddedDirective 2000/60/EC

AddedAnnex I – paragraph 1 – point 18, Annex V – point 2.4.5 – subparagraph 4: Member States shall also indicate by a black dot on the map, those groundwater bodies which are subject to significant and sustained upward trends, including seasonal upward trends caused, inter alia, by a low discharge of a water body, in the concentrations of any pollutant resulting from the impact of human activity. Reversal of a trend shall be indicated by a blue dot on the map.

AddedAnnex II – paragraph 1 – point 1, Annex VIII – point 10: 10. Materials in suspension, including micro/nanoplastics, as well as materials known to give rise to micro- or nanoplastics;

AddedDirective 2006/118/EC

AddedAnnex III, Annex I – introductory part: Note 1: The QS for the pollutants listed under entries 3 to 7 shall apply from … [OP: please insert the date = the first day of the month following 6 months after the entry into force of this amending Directive], with the aim of achieving good water chemical status at the latest by 22 December 2033.

Addedthe good chemical status is to be achieved after the 3rd river basin management plan, one after the current one 2022-2027. the QS should be established as soon as possible so that the measures are properly considered in the 3rd RBMP, as well as in relation to the Industrial Emissions Directive for industrial pollutants, etc.

AddedDirective 2006/118/EC

AddedAnnex III, Annex I – paragraph 1 a (new): Where, for a given body of groundwater, in particular one situated in the ecological network of special areas of conservation under Council Directive 92/43/EEC, it is considered that the groundwater quality standards could result in a failure to achieve the environmental objectives specified in Article 4 of Directive 2000/60/EC for associated bodies of surface water, or in any significant deterioration of the ecological or chemical quality of such bodies, or in any significant damage to groundwater or terrestrial ecosystems which depend directly on that body of groundwater, more stringent threshold values shall be established in accordance with Article 3 and Annex II to this Directive. Programmes and measures required in relation to such threshold values shall also apply to activities falling within the scope of Directive 91/676/EEC.

AddedDirective 2006/118/EC

AddedIt is not appropriate to set the same quality standard for groundwater as for surface waters. In general, the quality standard for groundwater should be ten times lower as for surface water. As the EQS for carbamazepine in surface water has been set at 0,25 µg/l, the quality standard for carbamazepine in groundwater should be set at 0,025 µg/l.
