+ | One of the major pollution problems facing European waters is eutrophication. European policy has consistently identified eutrophication as a priority issue for water protection. Substantial progress has been made in combating eutrophication but there remain several issues where co-ordination is necessary to achieve a harmonised result for different policy areas. Thus an activity was initiated under the Common Implementation Strategy of the Water Framework Directive and the European Marine Strategy to provide guidance on: | ||

+ | * the harmonisation of assessment methodologies and criteria for agreed eutrophication elements/parameters/indicators for lakes, rivers, transitional, coastal and marine waters | ||
+ | * the use of type-specific objectives for biological and general physico-chemical elements | ||
+ | * the co-ordination of monitoring and reporting | ||
