18 4- European Agenda Soil Protection: results of ENV Council Industrial Emissions Directive German and French guidances Finnish position The EC guidance / IEEG meeting Tour de Table for updating ELD / Bios Study

19 4- Soil Protection Feedback from the ENV COUNCIL meeting, March 2014 Andreas BIEBER

20 4- IED (1/5) Baseline report guidance documents Germany France Finland Italy English version soon available

21 4- IED (2/5) EC Guidance EC Guidance published May EN_V2_P1_ DOC Clearer on: Clarification on the possibility of soil and groundwater contamination at the site: three elements to consider (quantities, environment characteristics at the site of possible emission, measures of prevention to avoid that contamination can take place) Main stages of preparing the baseline report Mainly flexible text.

22 4- IED (3/5) EC Guidance Still challenging / concerning on some issues: Contamination and Pollution considered as interchangeable. Still controversy Information necessary to determine the state of soil and groundwater should be given (if referring to the IED text) when there are significant quantities to consider, not in all cases? All demonstrations / decisions should be made and held by the competent authorities (a little bit beyond the IED formal requirements?) Reference to ISO/CEN prior to national standards (no place for national mandatory protocols? No difference between the different types of standards?) Stages 3, 5 and 7 Uncertainties; limited to 2 important Elements (GW baseline data and use of statistical data)????

23 4- IED (4/5) IEEG Meeting 6 May 2014 / Feedback Anna-Maija Pajukallio / Co Molenaar

24 Tour de table 4- IED (5/5)

25 4- Environmental Liability Directive Bios Study update Common Forum position / D. Darmendrail NICOLE position / A. Sinke

26 4- Environmental Liability Directive Bios Questions for Common Forum: Scope of the strict liability Status quo or evolution? Pipelines, mining, shale gas exploration/exploitation Scope of environmental damage Appropriateness of the significance thresholds for land and water damage Use of permit and state-of-the-art defences

27 4- ELD / CF answers Scope of environmental damage: unclear distinction between the various types of environmental damage (interconnected resources) Soil damage: Human Health risks only a wider approach would be justified, not only for the sake of environmental benefits but in a sense of resource protection and effectiveness also economically (finding synergies).

28 4- ELD / CF answers Thresholds for land and water damage (values!): Already EU legislations that determine what resource is to be protected and how (Water Framework Directive, GW Daughter Directive). significance is a local / regional debate (comparison to natural geochemical backgrounds): Signifiance = Intensity, Extent, Duration 3 thresholds to discuss? Or risk assessment/risk management

29 4- ELD / BIOS report CCLs: the Commission may wish to consider in a possible future revision of the ELD as an option for priority - extending strict liability to non-annex III activities, either only for biodiversity damage or for all environmental damage. as a priority air damage. as a priority lowering the threshold for an imminent threat of environmental damage. as a priority defining land damage to include groundwater damage (and, perhaps, other water damage) due to the close relationship between them. as a priority clarifying or revising the definition of water damage. as a priority deleting the optional defences. as a priority clarifying the scope of cover for environmental damage provided by the nuclear Conventions es Report available at:

30 4- EC work programme announced at IMPEL meeting Soil Protection / Soil Partnership Ispra meeting IED: Revision of BAT conclusions for "pulp and paper production", "mineral oil and gas refineries", non-ferrous metal production", "intensive rearing of pigs and poultry", common wastewater and waste gas treatment" and "large combustion plants Water directive: Update on River Basin Management Plans Review of Annexes I and II under the Groundwater Directive: pollutants, thresholds and now additional pollutants

31 4- EC work programme announced at IMPEL meeting COPERNICUS (ex. GMES) vs. INSPIRE & SEIS: 6 services of which Land monitoring, Emergency management, Climate change) addressing a wide range of environmental policies - Knowledge base For 7 th EAP. Environmental Impact Assessment: revised in 2014 (broader scope) ELD: promotion of the implementation, training, EC review report (due in April 2014) Review of EU Framework of Environmental Inspections: internal impact assessment with possible options (including more binding framework)

32 Review of EU Framework of Environmental Inspections (2) Possible Elements It should cover about 40 existing pieces of environment legislation It is necessary to make it fit with other closely-related inspections' regimes, notably market surveillance, which covers products It will be risk-based, that is it will seek to have inspections targeted on the basis of risk It will take account of the compliance assurance chain, i.e. look at compliance promotion and enforcement, closely related to inspections It will leave a broad margin of discretion to Member States while seeking that a common set of risk criteria are used and adequate data is available to evaluate how effective inspections are in practice

46 NICOLE 5 Networking (1/X) WG Regulation SEDNET Demand for participating to a WG Sediment Science & Policy Interfacing CABERNET Conference 2014 / SNOWMAN?

47 5 Networking SEDNET Workshop Sediment Science & Policy Interfacing: Topic: the integration of sustainable sediment management in sustainable regional or urban development / the future of coastal environments and river basins in Europe Objective: to develop an effective approach to integrate sustainable sediment management in regional or urban (re) development. How current policy must prepare to evolve to balance the needs of environmental protection / conservation with clear population demands? How to anticipate and make those changes to EU and member state regulations and environmental policy? What science is needed and how should that science inform policy? What science is relevant now and what new science is needed? Can we make predictions with uncertainty now and point to information gaps? 1 st day: Views on the problem, site visit, group model building; 2 nd day: Interdisciplinary solutions, stakeholder analysis, reflection on approach, appointments 3 rd day: Writing: the approach, proposal, etc.
