Amendment 29 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 1
Recital 1
(1) Chemical pollution of surface water presents a threat to the aquatic environment with effects such as acute and chronic toxicity to aquatic organisms, accumulation in the ecosystem and loss of habitats and biodiversity, as well as a threat to human health. As a matter of priority, causes of pollution should be identified and emissions should, where possible, be dealt with at source, in the most economically and environmentally effective manner.

(21) Furthermore, in order to improve the information basis for future identification of priority substances, in particular as regards emerging pollutants, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union should be delegated to the Commission in respect of the drawing up of a watch list. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level, involving experts from the Member States, the industries concerned and NGOs which promote environmental protection.

10a. In Annex I, point 3 of Part B is replaced by the following: ‘3. With the exception of cadmium, lead, mercury and nickel (hereinafter ‘metals’) the EQS set up in this Annex are expressed as total concentrations in the whole water sample. In the case of metals the EQS refers to the dissolved concentration, i.e. the dissolved phase of a water sample obtained by filtration through a 0,45 µm filter or any equivalent pre-treatment. Member States may, when assessing the monitoring results against the EQS, take into account: (a) natural background concentrations for metals and their compounds, if they prevent compliance with the EQS value; and (b) hardness, pH or other water quality parameters that affect the bioavailability of metals, the bioavailable concentrations being determined using appropriate bioavailability models.’.
