Inventory of Emissions, Discharges and Losses of Substances and Chemical Analysis Information - 2015

The Environmental Quality Standards Directive (2008/105/EC), (as amended by Directive 2013/39/EU), is a daughter directive of WFD that specifies the assessment, reporting and objectives required for Chemical Status. Collation and reporting of the inventory of emissions, discharges and losses of priority substances is a requirement under Directive 2008/105/EC. This inventory must include diffuse and direct discharges in each River Basin District (RBD) for each substance for which data is available. The inventory will be used to verify that emissions, discharges and losses are making progress towards reduction or cessation objectives for the chemicals listed under the Directive.
