CMA Drafting group on sediment/biota monitoring

This document provides a revised outline for the guidance on chemical monitoring of sediment and biota under the Water Framework Directive. It includes contributions from participants and outlines the substance selection, monitoring strategies, sampling methods, and trend analysis. The aim is to have a final draft by May 2009.

  1. CMA Drafting group on sediment/biota monitoring October 2008

  2. Participants BFG, MARLAB, ISPRA(ICRAM), ISSEP, MUMM, RIZA, UNEPMAP, MERMAYDE, Finnish EPA, Swedish EPA Still evolving... chair:Mario Carere ISSValeria Dulio INERISco chair:Georg Hanke JRC IESStefano Polesello IRSA October 2008

  3. Adoption of EQS Directive in EU Parliament on 17.6.08 Final version will be the basis for guidance drafting October 2008

  4. Done after Pau: Thematic sub-groups created Received annotated draft outline from participants Reviewed document outline Distributed outline on 17.8.08 to drafting group First draft contributions received prior to CMA plenary in Paris October 2008

  5. Dedicated document store webspace as working tool available both as a source for documents for drafting group and also for upload of reference sources. Draft guidance versions and other info will be on CIRCA October 2008
