Recital 9
(9) Directive 2000/60/EC requires Member States to identify water bodies used for the abstraction of water intended for human consumption, to monitor them, and to take the necessary measures to avoid deterioration in their quality and to reduce the level of purification treatment required in the production of water that is fit for human consumption. In this context, micro-plastics have been identified as a potential risk to human health, but more monitoring data are required to confirm the need for setting an environmental quality standard for micro-plastics in surface and groundwaters. Micro-plastics should therefore be included in the surface and groundwater watch lists and should be monitored as soon as the Commission has identified suitable monitoring methods. In this context , account should be taken of the methodologies for monitoring and assessing the risks from micro-plastics in drinking water, developed under Directive (EU) 2020/2184 of the European Parliament and of the Council57. _________________ 57 Directive (EU) 2020/2184 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2020 on the quality of water intended for human consumption (recast) (OJ L 435, 23.12.2020, p. 1).

Recital 20 a (new)
(20 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.
