Recital 25 a (new)
(25 a) Given that groundwater ecosystems are more vulnerable to stressors than many other freshwater ecosystems, the difficulty associated with remediation of contaminated groundwaters and the importance of groundwater as a drinking water source, a precautionary approach should be applied when setting groundwater threshold values, to protect groundwater ecosystems, human health and groundwater-dependent ecosystems. With regard to this, as well as the recommendations from the EMA guidance document EMA/CVMP/ERA/103555/2015, a factor 10 (lower) thresholds should be applied for groundwater compared to surface water.
