Implementation of requirements on Priority substances within the Context of the Water Framework Directive

Brief reminder of the objectives A centralised dataset

The cornerstone for the definition of a manageable list of substances presented with the prioritisation process

The first building block to apply the monitoring-based prioritisation method

A testing phase for robustness in course

A living system that will be transferred to WISE and the EEA et the end of all collection and treatments, after tests




Overall situation

Almost all countries provided data: of which in last update:

Preliminary data treatment

• Only datasets for surface water River, Lake, Transitional, Coastal, Marine

• Elimination of : data measured before year 2000 non relevant parameters (e.g. P(tot), Nitrates, etc.) datasets for which neither LOD or LOQ was provided (except if >LoQ) Insufficient precision of matrix or fraction (all ”other”)

• Correction With MS of missing LoD/LoQ, fraction, inconsistencies… Internally for missing CAS N°, wrong names, doublets

• Harmonisation of the measurement units Water: µg/l, Sediment: µg/kg dw, Biota: µg/kg ww




- Data 2000-2008- Surface water - 26 Member States + CH and NO- 19 613 stations

Data collection 2009: requirements • Countries that have not provided any data or had provided very

small datasets, (EL, BG, but also CY, NL, ES and IE, + huge increase of FR)

• analysis on dissolved metals (252 155 analyses)

• analysis on water with marine influence: transitional, coastal and marine water (15360 analysis: 11909 CW, 3412 TW, 39 MW)

• analysis on sediment and biota (743 049 analyses of which 3 812 on biota)

• analysis on the 13 substances or groups thereof as listed in EQS Daughter Directive under Annex III (113 638 analyses, 2008: 182 893 analyses)

Conclusions and perspectives

• Data collection 2009: 9 million analysis on 893 substances• 2 countries provided for first time• 8 countries + a stakeholder provided more data• Big increase in dissolved metals and sediment data, weak on

marine influenced and biota

• With 14,5 million analysis, a change of the management tool was necessary (postgre)

• Very good basis for monitoring based prioritisation
