Removed‘ANNEX I

RemovedGROUNDWATER QUALITY STANDARDS (QS)

RemovedNote 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 186 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. [Am. 142]

RemovedWhere, 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. [Am. 143]

Removed(2) EU number: European Inventory of Existing Commercial Substances (EINECS) or European List of Notified Chemical Substances (ELINCS).

Removed(3) ‘Total’ means the sum of concentrations of Trichloroethylene and Tetrachloroethylene ’

RemovedAnnex V

RemovedAnnex I to Directive 2008/105/EC is amended as follows:

Removed(1) the title is replaced by the following:

Removed‘ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY STANDARDS (EQS) FOR PRIORITY SUBSTANCES IN SURFACE WATERS;’

Removed(2) Part A is replaced by the following:

Removed‘PART A: ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY STANDARDS

RemovedNote 1: Where an EQS is listed between [], this value is subject to confirmation in the light of the opinion requested from the Scientific Committee on Health, Environmental and Emerging Risks.

Removed*The quality standards shall be set by the Commission by delegated act.

Removed(1) CAS: Chemical Abstracts Service.

Removed(2) EU number: European Inventory of Existing Commercial Substances (EINECS) or European List of Notified Chemical Substances (ELINCS).

Removed(3) This parameter is the EQS expressed as an annual average value (AA‑EQS). Unless otherwise specified, it applies to the total concentration of all substances and isomers.

Removed(4) Inland surface waters encompass rivers and lakes and related artificial or heavily modified water bodies.

Removed(5) This parameter is the EQS expressed as a maximum allowable concentration (MAC EQS). Where the MAC EQS are marked as "not applicable", the AA EQS values are considered protective against short-term pollution peaks in continuous discharges since they are significantly lower than the values derived on the basis of acute toxicity.

Removed(6) If an EQS biota is given, it, rather than the water EQS, shall be applied, without prejudice to the provision in Article 3(3) of this Directive allowing an alternative biota taxon, or another matrix, to be monitored instead, as long as the EQS applied provides an equivalent level of protection. Unless otherwise indicated, the biota EQS relate to fish. For substances numbered 15 (Fluoranthene), 28 (PAHs), and 51 (Bisphenol-A) the biota EQS refers to crustaceans and molluscs. For the purpose of assessing chemical status, monitoring of Fluoranthene and PAHs, and Bisphenol-A in fish is not appropriate. For substance number 37 (Dioxins and dioxin-like compounds), the biota EQS relates to fish, crustaceans and molluscs, in line with Commission Regulation (EU) No 1259/2011* Annex Section 5.3.

Removed(7) For the group of priority substances covered by brominated diphenylethers (No 5), the EQS refer to the sum of the concentrations of congener numbers 28, 47, 99, 100, 153 and 154.

Removed(8) Tetra, Penta, Hexa, Hepta, Octa and Decabromodiphenylether (CAS numbers 40088-47-9, 32534-81-9, 36483-60-0, 68928-80-3, 32536-52-0, 1163-19-5, respectively).

Removed(9) For Cadmium and its compounds (No 6) the EQS values vary depending on the hardness of the water as specified in five class categories (Class 1: <40 mg CaCO3/l, Class 2: 40 to <50 mg CaCO3/l, Class 3: 50 to <100 mg CaCO3/l, Class 4: 100 to <200 mg CaCO3/l and Class 5: ≥200 mg CaCO3/l).

Removed(10) No indicative parameter is provided for this group of substances. The indicative parameter(s) must be defined through the analytical method.

Removed(11) DDT total comprises the sum of the isomers 1,1,1 trichloro 2,2 bis (p chlorophenyl) ethane (CAS 50 29 3, EU 200 024 3); 1,1,1 trichloro 2 (o chlorophenyl) 2 (p chlorophenyl) ethane (CAS 789 02 6, EU 212 332 5); 1,1-dichloro 2,2 bis (p chlorophenyl) ethylene (CAS 72 55 9, EU 200 784 6); and 1,1 dichloro 2,2 bis (p chlorophenyl) ethane (CAS 72 54 8, EU 200 783 0).

Removed(12) These EQS refer to bioavailable concentrations of the substances.
