1 APELE ROMÂNE BIOTA MONITORING ASPECTS Florentina SOARE Carmen HAMCHEVICI Dragos CAZAN National Administration Romanian Waters WG Chemicals March 2017, Brussels, Belgium

2 BIOTA MONITORING Requirements APELE ROMÂNE Directive 2008/105/EC amended by Directive 2013/39/EU Art For the substances numbered 5, 15, 16, 17, 21, 28, 34, 35, 37, 43 and 44 in Part A of Annex I, Member States shall apply the biota EQS laid down in Part A of Annex I

3 BIOTA MONITORING APELE ROMÂNE No Priority Substance CAS No EQS for Biota (µg/kg) (5) Brominated diphenylethers (BDEs) (15) Fluoranthene (16) Hexachlorobenzene (17) Hexachlorobutadiene (21) Mercury (Hg) and its compounds (28) Benzo(a)pyrene (34) Dicofol (35) Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) (37) Dioxins and dioxin-like (sum TEQ) polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) (43) Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) ; (44) Heptachlor and heptachlorepoxide / Brussels March

5 SURFACE WATER BIOTA SELECTING THE MONITORING SITES Guidance Document No: 25 Guidance on chemical monitoring of sediment and biota under the Water Framework Directive the sampling sites have to be representative of the respective ecosystem, and/or of the respective sampling region. The fish should be collected from a sampling site representative of the area. The site should not differ from the general picture of the area of concern

6 SURFACE WATER BIOTA SCREENING NETWORK APPLIED CRITERIA (I) APELE ROMÂNE Monitoring sections, downstream of major polluters / industrial uses Monitoring sections, downstream of urban agglomerations greater than equivalent inhabitants Monitoring sections in areas with intensive agricultural activities Monitoring sections located at the closure area of the main water courses river basin Monitoring sections of rivers (spring sites) for which downstream water bodies were assessed as being in bad chemical status during the period without proven source / known pollution source

7 SURFACE WATER BIOTA SCREENING NETWORK APPLIED CRITERIA (II) Representative monitoring sections on the all Danube river water bodies Monitoring sections located on the border areas of water streams Monitoring sections with existing relevant fish species for biota matrix analysis (fish species recommended in Guidance Document No. 25 on Chemical Monitoring of Sediment and Biota under the Water Framework Directive). 26 monitoring sections selected

9 SURFACE WATER BIOTA Performance criteria in NAAR National Laboratory Priority substance Target LOQ - 5 g Working Criteria Liniar range LOQ (µg / kg) range (solvent) (µg / kg) (µg x kg -1 ) (µg / l) Penta-BDE Fluoranthene Hexachlorobenzene Hexachlorobutadie ne Mercury (Hg) and its compounds Benzo(a)pyrene Dicofol Hexabromocyclodo decane Heptachlor and heptachlorepoxide

10 RESULTS (I) Quantified substances (concentration>loq) PBDE ( BDE 47, BDE 154, BDE 28 and BDE 100) Fluoranthene Hexachlorobenzene Mercury (Hg) and its compounds Dicofol Hexabromocyclododecane Heptachlor and heptachlorepoxide Dioxins and dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)

11 RESULTS (II) Bad chemical status (concentration>eqs) PBDE ( BDE 47, BDE 154, BDE 28 and BDE 100) Hexachlorobenzene Mercury (Hg) and its compounds Heptachlor and heptachlorepoxide Brussells March 2017

12 RESULTS (III)

13 RESULTS (IV)

14 RESULTS (V) Predatory fish Esox lucius Leuciscus cephalus Lota lota Perca fluviatilis Sander lucioperca Silurus glanis Zingel streber Non-predatory fish Abramis brama Alburnus alburnus Barbus barbus Barbus petenyi Blicca bjoerkna Carasius gibelio Chondostroma nasus Leuciscus idus

15 QUESTIONS (I) Q1: Is there too many or too little when establishing the number of biota monitoring sections? Q2: What is the number of biota monitoring sections established in your country? (for the MS) Q3: How do you find the criteria used in establishing the biota monitoring network?

16 QUESTIONS (II) HYPOTHETICAL 400 surface water bodies monitored for assessing the chemical status only for the water matrix 25 surface water bodies (from the 400) monitored for assessing the chemical status both for the water matrix and biota matrix All of the 25 biota monitored water bodies are in bad chemical status 50 water monitored water bodies are in bad chemical status ( including the 25 biota)

17 CHEMICAL STATUS ASSESSMENT BIOTA ASSESSMENT 100% BAD chemical status WATER ASSESSMENT 12.5 % BAD chemical status INTEGRATED CHEMICAL STATUS ASSESSMENT 100% BAD chemical status? (extrapolate or not biota assessment) OR 12.5 % BAD chemical status? (only the obtained results)
