7. RIVERS – 2 methods not accepted Feb 2017 (MS-level) by country / BQE / GIGFR
Benthic invertebrates (new method)
Report demonstrating WFD compliance and showing that new method classification is more strict than the old one
Some essential elements required in the guidance are mission – not possible to accept at this stage HU
Fish fauna
Report demonstrating that HU method can not be compared to others in the region
Problems with WFD compliance check, especially the RC (best available sites that are clearly impacted)
