Where possible, both acute and chronic toxicity data must be obtained for the taxons set down below, which are important for that body type of water, and for any aquatic taxon for which they are located. are available data. "the" basic set " of the taxons consists of: a) Alge and/or macrophytes b) Daphnia or representative bodies for saline waters; c) Fish. Setting standard values for characterization of quality chemical status The following procedure shall apply for the establishment of an average maximum annual concentration ((i) appropriate safety factors shall be established in each case, depending on the nature and quality of the data available and the technical indications for the risk assessment for new substances notified and the risk assessment for substances existing and safety factors set out in Table no. 1.2.6.: Table no. 1.2.6.

Where anomalies occur, determinations need to be reviewed to enable a much more accurate safety factor to be calculated; (iv) the standard value/values set must be equally subject to review and public consultation, including to enable a more precise safety factor to be calculated. 1.3. Ecological and chemical status monitoring for surface waters The surface water monitoring network must be established in accordance with the provisions of art. 35. The monitoring network must be designed so as to ensure a coherent and comprehensive general view of the ecological and chemical state within each river basin and to allow the classification of water bodies in five classes, in compliance with the normative definitions set out in point 1.2 1.2. A map or maps showing the surface water monitoring network in the watershed design and management guidelines must be developed. Based on the characterization and impact assessment, carried out in accordance with art. 43 43 para. ((1 ^ 5) and Annex no. 1 1 ^ 2, for each period to which a river basin level directories scheme is applied, shall establish a monitoring monitoring programme and an operational monitoring programme. In certain cases, investigative monitoring programs may be established. Within the established system, parameters that are indicators of the condition of each important quality element must be monitored. For the selection of parameters for quality biological elements, the level of the required taxons required to achieve the level of certainty and adequate precision in the classification of quality elements shall be identified Estimates of the level of certainty and accuracy of the results provided by the monitoring programmes must be presented in the Guidelines. 1.3.1. Design of the surveillance monitoring program 1.3.1.1. Objective: Surveillance monitoring programmes shall provide information to: a) supplementation and validation of the impact assessment procedure, detailed in Annex no. 1 1 ^ 2; b) efficient and effective design of future monitoring programs; c) assessment of long-term changes in natural conditions; d) evaluation of long-term changes resulting from general anthropogenic activity. The results of such a monitoring programme shall be reviewed and used in combination with the impact assessment procedure set out in Annex no. 1 ^ 2, for the determination of the requirements for the monitoring programs in the current and future hydrographic basin level guidelines. 1.3.1.2. Selection of monitoring points The surveillance monitoring program must be carried out for a sufficient number of water bodies, so as to ensure an assessment of the global status of the surface waters of each river basin or sub-basin river basin within the the river basin district. For the selection of these water bodies, the monitoring will be carried out at the points where: a) the flow rate of the watercourse is important within the district of the river basin as a whole, including the points on large rivers, where the river basin is more than 2,500 sq km; b) the volume of water present is significant within the river basin district, including natural lakes and large artificial lakes; c) important water bodies cross the border of a state; d) there are places identified in accordance with the information exchange legislation; e) at other such points where it is necessary to estimate the load of pollutants that are transferred across borders and which are transferred to the marine aquatic environment. 1.3.1.3. Selection of quality elements The surveillance monitoring shall be carried out for each monitoring point for 1 year during the period covered by the river basin level directories for: a) the parameters indicating all the quality biological elements; b) the parameters indicating all the quality hydromorphological elements; c) parameters indicating all quality physico-chemical elements; d) the list of priority pollutants that are being evacuated in a river basin or sub-basin; e) other pollutants evacuated in significant quantities in the basin or watershed, unless the previous monitoring exercise has shown that the body of water has reached the good condition and there is no evidence, following the review of the impact of human activity in accordance with Annex no. 1 ^ 2, showing that the impact on the body of water has changed. In this case the surveillance monitoring must be carried out once during the period of validity of three successive guidelines, drawn up at the level of the river basin. 1.3.2. Design of operational monitoring program The operational monitoring shall be done for: a) the establishment of the condition of those bodies of water identified as having the risk of not meeting the objectives of protection of the water and aquatic environment b) the evaluation of any changes in the state of such bodies of water, resulting from the measures of measures. The programme may be amended during the period of validity of the river basin directories scheme, depending on the information obtained as part of the requirements set out in Annex no. 1 ^ 2, or as part of this annex, in particular to allow a reduction in the frequency with which an impact is detected to be insignificant or for the important pressure generated by the impact to be removed. 1.3.2.1. Selection of monitoring sites The operational monitoring must be carried out for all those bodies of water which, either on the basis of the impact assessment carried out according to the provisions of Annex 1 ^ 2 or surveillance monitoring, are identified as having the risk of not meeting its water and aquatic environment protection objectives established in accordance with art. 2 ^ 1 and for those bodies of water in which the substances in the priority list are discharged. The monitoring points shall be selected for substances in the priority list as specified in the legislation setting out the relevant standard values for water quality and aquatic environment. In all other cases, including for substances in the priority list, where there are no specific instructions in the specific legislation, the monitoring points shall be determined as follows: a) for water bodies subject to risk due to significant impact pressures of one-off sources, sufficient monitoring points will be established within each body of water, for the purpose of assessing the impact of specific sources. If a body of water is subjected to multiple pressures from one-off sources, the monitoring points can be selected for assessing the size and impact of these pressures as a whole; b) for water bodies at risk due to significant impact pressures of diffuse sources, sufficient monitoring points will be established within selected water bodies, for the purpose of assessing the impact of diffuse sources. The selection of water bodies must be made so that they are representative of the relative risk of the occurrence of pressures due to diffuse sources and for the relative risk of failure to meet the good condition of surface waters; c) for water bodies subject to risk due to hydromorphological pressures, sufficient monitoring points will be established within a selection of water bodies, in order to assess the size and impact of hydromorphological pressures. The selection of water bodies must be characteristic for the global impact of the hydromorphological pressure to which all bodies of water are subjected. 1.3.2.2. Selection of quality elements For the assessment of the impact pressure to which all surface water bodies are subjected, those quality elements that are characteristic of the impact pressures to which the body or bodies of water are subjected shall be monitored. To this end, it must be monitored: a) the characteristics of the element or biological elements of quality most sensitive to the pressures to which the respective bodies of water are subjected; b) all the priority substances discharged, as well as other pollutants evacuated in important quantities; c) the characteristics of the quality hydromorphological element most sensitive to the identified pressure. 1.3.3. Design of the investigative monitoring program Objective The investigation shall be carried out: a) where the reasons for any overtaking are not known; b) where the surveillance monitoring shows that the objectives established according to art. 2 ^ 1 for a body of water cannot be achieved and the operational monitoring has not yet been established, in order to determine the causes for which a body of water or bodies of water do not meet the objectives of protection of the water and aquatic environment established; c) to determine the impact of accidental pollution. The investigative monitoring programme shall provide information necessary for the establishment of a programme of measures to achieve the objectives of protection of the water and aquatic environment established and of the specific measures necessary to remedy the effects of accidental pollution. 1.3.4. Frequency of monitoring For the period of the surveillance monitoring program, the frequencies for the monitoring parameters characteristics of the quality physico-chemical elements set out in Table no. 1.3.4. must be applied, unless, on the basis of technical knowledge and expert decision, higher intervals are justified. For quality biological or hydromorphological elements, the monitoring shall be carried out at least once during the surveillance monitoring period. For the operational monitoring programme, the frequency of the monitoring required for each parameter shall be determined in such a way as to ensure the provision of sufficient data for a credible assessment of the status of the important elements of quality. As a rule, the monitoring must take place at intervals not exceeding those set out in Table no. 1.3.4., except where, on the basis of technical knowledge and expert decision, longer intervals are justified. Frequencies must be chosen in such a way as to achieve an acceptable level of certainty and precision. The estimates of certainty and precision made by the monitoring system used must be established in the Hydrographic Basin Planning and Management Guidelines. Monitoring frequencies must be chosen taking into account the variability of parameters resulting from both natural and anthropogenic conditions. The time frames at which the monitoring is undertaken must be chosen so as to minimize the impact of seasonal variation on results and therefore ensure that the results reflect changes in water bodies as a result of changes. caused by anthropogenic pressures.
