1. Italian Committee of United Cities (CICU) PHARE - twinning Project SK02/IB/EN01 Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute PRP as a tool for: Reduce overall polluting pressures Protect and restore water ecological status Achieve the environmental objectives as set by the common frame for water policy (Dir. 2000/60/CE) APPROACH TO IMPLEMENT THE PRP

2. Italian Committee of United Cities (CICU) PHARE - twinning Project SK02/IB/EN01 Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute Directive 76/464/CE and daughter directives Identify polluting substances with priority set on toxicity, persistance and bio accumulation Set EQS to prevent dangerous effects PRPProgrammes of measures to achieve DS emission reduction in waters PRP Reduce pollution

3. Italian Committee of United Cities (CICU) PHARE - twinning Project SK02/IB/EN01 Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute WFD approach: GOOD All water bodies should achieve a GOOD Ecological Status within 2015 protect water bodies at HIGH or GOOD Ecological Status reduce/ cancel polluting input in water bodies at risk not achieving the environmental objective Protect & Restore Water Ecological Status

4. Italian Committee of United Cities (CICU) PHARE - twinning Project SK02/IB/EN01 Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute WFD approach: in the RIVER BASIN identify water bodies at risk of achieving environmental objectives Assess pressures and impacts (quality/quantity) Protect & Restore Water Ecological Status 2

8. Italian Committee of United Cities (CICU) PHARE - twinning Project SK02/IB/EN01 Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute The Combined Approach (WFD art 10) Emission controls based on Best Available Technologies (BAT) Relevant emission limit values Diffuse impacts: Best Environmental Practices (BEP) If Quality objective or Quality standard pursuant any relevant Directive are at risk: set more stringent emisson controls

9. Italian Committee of United Cities (CICU) PHARE - twinning Project SK02/IB/EN01 Slovak Hydrometeorological Institute Programmes of measures (WFD art 11) BASIC MEASURES (among others….): 1) point discharge sources: prohibition on the entry of pollutant into water, prior authorisation, prior registration laying down emissions controls 2) periodical revisionand update 3) prohibition of discharge of pollutants in GW (derogations) SUPPLEMENTARY MEASURES Any other measure implemented to achieve environmental objectives
