2 water.europa.eu WFD general objective: achieve Good Status for all waters in 2015 Good status for surface water –Good chemical status + good ecological status Good chemical status means meeting all environmental quality standards (EQS) for the WFD Annex X list of priority substances (PS), currently 33, plus 8 other pollutants Good status for groundwater –Good chemical status + good quantitative status Good chemical status means meeting standards for pesticides and nitrates

3 water.europa.eu Review of Annex X (PS list) of WFD Article 16(4) of Directive 2000/60/EC (WFD) requires review of the PS list at least every four years Article 8 of Directive 2008/105/EC (EQSD) requires –Report to Parliament and the Council on Annex III substances by 13 Jan 2011 –Proposals for new PS or PHS with EQS –Consideration of status of existing PS
