CAS: Chemical Abstracts Service.
(2)
EU number: European Inventory of Existing Commercial Substances (EINECS) or European List of Notified Chemical Substances (ELINCS).
(3)
This parameter is the EQS expressed as an annual average value (AA-EQS). Unless otherwise specified, it applies to the total concentration of all substances and isomers.
(4)
Inland surface waters encompass rivers and lakes and related artificial or heavily modified water bodies.
(5)
This parameter is the EQS expressed as a maximum allowable concentration (MAC EQS). Unless otherwise specified, it applies to the total concentration of all substances and isomers. Where the MAC EQS are marked as ‘not applicable’, the AA EQS values are considered protective against short-term pollution peaks in continuous discharges since they are significantly lower than the values derived on the basis of acute toxicity.
(6)
If an EQS for biota or sediment is given, it, rather than the water EQS, shall be applied, without prejudice to Article 3(3) of this Directive allowing an alternative biota taxon, or another matrix, to be monitored instead, as long as the EQS applied provides an equivalent level of protection. Unless otherwise specified, it applies to the total concentration of all substances and isomers. Unless otherwise indicated, the biota EQS relate to fish. ‘fw fish’ indicates the biota EQS for freshwater fish monitored in inland waters; ‘sw fish’ indicates the biota EQS for saltwater fish monitored in other surface waters. For substances numbered 15 (Fluoranthene), 28 (PAHs), and 51 (Bisphenol-A) the biota EQS refers to crustaceans and molluscs. For the purpose of assessing chemical status, monitoring of Fluoranthene PAHs, and Bisphenol-A in fish is not appropriate. For substance number 37 (Dioxins and dioxin-like compounds), the biota EQS relates to fish, crustaceans and molluscs, in line with point 4.1.5 of Annex I to Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915 (*).
(7)
For the group of priority substances covered by brominated diphenylethers (No 5), the EQS refer to the sum of the concentrations of congener numbers 28, 47, 99, 100, 153 and 154.
(8)
Tetra, Penta, Hexa, Hepta, Octa and Decabromodiphenylether (CAS numbers 40088-47-9, 32534-81-9, 36483-60-0, 68928-80-3, 32536-52-0, 1163-19-5, respectively).
(9)
For Cadmium and its compounds (No 6) the EQS values vary depending on the hardness of the water as specified in five class categories (Class 1: < 40 mg CaCO3/l, Class 2: 40 to < 50 mg CaCO3/l, Class 3: 50 to < 100 mg CaCO3/l, Class 4: 100 to < 200 mg CaCO3/l and Class 5: ≥ 200 mg CaCO3/l).
(10)
No indicative parameter is provided for this group of substances. The indicative parameter(s) shall be defined through the analytical method.
(11)
DDT total comprises the sum of the isomers 1,1,1 trichloro 2,2 bis (p chlorophenyl) ethane (CAS 50 29 3, EU 200 024 3); 1,1,1 trichloro 2 (o chlorophenyl) 2 (p chlorophenyl) ethane (CAS 789 02 6, EU 212 332 5); 1,1-dichloro 2,2 bis (p chlorophenyl) ethylene (CAS 72 55 9, EU 200 784 6); and 1,1 dichloro 2,2 bis (p chlorophenyl) ethane (CAS 72 54 8, EU 200 783 0).
(12)
These EQS refer to bioavailable concentrations of the substances.
(13)
Nonylphenol (CAS 25154-52-3, EU 246-672-0) including isomers 4-nonylphenol (CAS 104-40-5, EU 203-199-4) and 4-nonylphenol (branched) (CAS 84852-15-3, EU 284-325-5).
(14)
Octylphenol (CAS 1806-26-4, EU 217-302-5) including isomer 4-(1,1’,3,3’-tetramethylbutyl)-phenol (CAS 140-66-9, EU 205-426-2).
(15)
Benzo(a)pyrene (CAS 50-32-8) (RPF 1), benzo(b)fluoranthene (CAS 205-99-2) (RPF 0,1 ), benzo(k)fluoranthene (CAS 207-08-9) (RPF 0,1 ), benzo(g,h,i)perylene (CAS 191-24-2) (RPF 0), indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene (CAS 193-39-5) (RPF 0,1 ), chrysene (CAS 218-01-9) (RPF 0,01 ), benzo(a)anthracene (CAS 56-55-3) (RPF 0,1 ), dibenz(a,h)anthracene (CAS 53-70-3) (RPF 1) and fluoranthene (CAS 206-44-0) (RPF 0,01 ). Fluoranthene also appears separately in row 15. The PAHs anthracene and naphthalene are listed only separately because no RPF is available.
(16)
For the group of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) (No 28), the biota EQS refers to the sum of the concentrations of eight of the nine PAHs listed in footnote 15 expressed as benzo(a)pyrene equivalents based on the carcinogenic potencies of the substances relative to that of benzo(a)pyrene, i.e. the RPFs in footnote 15. Benzo(g,h,i)perylene does not need to be measured in biota for the purposes of determining compliance with the overall biota EQS. The biota EQS for fluoranthene in row 15 must also be complied with.
(17)
Tributyltin compounds including tributyltin-cation (CAS 36643-28-4).
(19)
There is insufficient information available to set a MAC-EQS for these substances.

For the group of PFAS (No 65), the EQS refer to the sum of the concentrations of the 25 PFAS listed in footnote 26 expressed as PFOA-equivalents based on the potencies of the substances relative to that of PFOA, i.e. the RPFs in footnote 26. The critical EQS is the biota EQS (relating to fish consumption) and must therefore be complied with. The AA-EQS are not equivalently protective.
(28)
‘Pesticides’ means plant protection products as referred to in Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009 and biocidal products as defined in Article 3 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
(29)
The minimum performance criteria laid down in Directive 2009/90/EC apply to each individual substance within the group of substances but taking account of the need to quantify the contribution of each substance to the total concentration for comparison with the EQS.
(30)
With the following exceptions: the four pesticides to be monitored in biota or sediment, i.e. the substances numbered 16, 30, 34 and 44, and glyphosate.

PART B: APPLICATION OF THE EQS SET OUT IN PART A
|
1.
|
►M2
For any given surface water body, applying the AA-EQS means that, for each representative monitoring point within the water body, the arithmetic mean of the concentrations measured at different times during the year does not exceed the standard. ◄
The calculation of the arithmetic mean, the analytical method used and, where there is no appropriate analytical method meeting the minimum performance criteria, the method of applying an EQS must be in accordance with implementing acts adopting technical specifications for chemical monitoring and quality of analytical results, in accordance with Directive 2000/60/EC.
|
▼M1
|
2.
|
►M2
For any given surface water body, applying the MAC-EQS means that the measured concentration at any representative monitoring point within the water body does not exceed the standard. ◄
However, in accordance with Section 1.3.4 of Annex V to Directive 2000/60/EC, Member States may introduce statistical methods, such as a percentile calculation, to ensure an acceptable level of confidence and precision for determining compliance with the MAC-EQS. Where Member States do so, such statistical methods shall comply with detailed rules laid down in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 9(2) of this Directive.

The water EQS laid down in this Annex are expressed as total concentrations in the whole water sample.
By way of derogation from the first subparagraph, in the case of cadmium, lead, mercury and nickel (hereinafter ‘metals’), the water EQS refer 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, or, where specifically indicated, to the bioavailable concentration.
Member States may, when assessing the monitoring results against the relevant EQS, take into account:
(a)
natural background concentrations for metals and their compounds where such concentrations prevent compliance with the relevant EQS;
(b)
hardness, pH, dissolved organic carbon or other water quality parameters that affect the bioavailability of metals, the bioavailable concentrations being determined using appropriate bioavailability modelling.

ANNEX II
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY STANDARDS FOR RIVER BASIN SPECIFIC POLLUTANTS
PART A: INDICATIVE LIST OF CATEGORIES OF RIVER BASIN SPECIFIC POLLUTANTS
1. Organohalogen compounds and substances which may form such compounds in the aquatic environment.
2. Organophosphorous compounds.
4. Substances and preparations, or the breakdown products of such, which have been proved to possess carcinogenic or mutagenic properties or properties which may affect steroidogenic, thyroid, reproduction or other endocrine-related functions in or via the aquatic environment.
5. Persistent hydrocarbons and persistent and bioaccumulable organic toxic substances.
7. Metals and their compounds.
8. Arsenic and its compounds.
9. Biocides and plant protection products.
10. Materials in suspension, including micro/nanoplastics
11. Microorganisms, genes or genetic material reflecting the presence of microorganisms resistant to antimicrobial agents, in particular microorganisms pathogenic to humans or livestock.
PART B: THE PROCEDURE FOR DERIVING ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY STANDARDS FOR RIVER BASIN SPECIFIC POLLUTANTS
Methods used for the establishment of EQS for river basin specific pollutants shall include the following steps:
(a)
identification of the receptors and compartments or matrices at risk from the substance of concern;
(b)
collation and quality assessment of data on the properties of the substance of concern, including its (eco)toxicity, in particular from reports on laboratory, mesocosm and field studies which cover both chronic and acute effects in both fresh and saltwater environments;
(c)
extrapolation of (eco)toxicity data to no-effect or similar concentrations using deterministic or probabilistic methods, and selection and application of appropriate assessment factors to address uncertainties and derive EQS;
(d)
comparison of EQS for different receptors and compartments, and selection of critical EQS, i.e. the EQS that provides protection to the most sensitive receptor in the most relevant compartment or matrix.

(3)
This parameter is the EQS expressed as an annual average value (AA-EQS). Unless otherwise specified, it applies to the total concentration of all substances and isomers.
(4)
Inland surface waters encompass rivers and lakes and related artificial or heavily modified water bodies.
(5)
This parameter is the EQS expressed as a maximum allowable concentration (MAC EQS). Where the MAC EQS are marked as ‘not applicable’, the AA EQS values are considered protective against short-term pollution peaks in continuous discharges since they are significantly lower than the values derived on the basis of acute toxicity.
(6)
If a biota EQS is given, it, rather than the water EQS, shall be applied, without prejudice to Article 3(3) of this Directive allowing an alternative biota taxon, or another matrix, to be monitored instead, as long as the EQS applied provides an equivalent level of protection. Unless otherwise indicated, the biota EQS relate to fish.
