Adopted 19 October 2004

Regulations Regarding the Characterisation of the Types, Classification, Quality Criteria of Surface Water Bodies and the Procedures for Determination of Anthropogenic Loads

Issued pursuant to
Section 5, Paragraphs four, eight and nine
and Paragraph ten, Clauses 1, 3 and 4
of the Water Management Law

I. General Provisions

1. The Regulation prescribes:

1.1. the characterisation of the types of surface water bodies and the classification of surface water bodies;

1.2. the procedures for the determination of anthropogenic loads, as well as the priority substances and the procedures for limiting the emission thereof;

1.3. high, good, moderate, poor and bad ecological quality criteria of surface waters, good and poor chemical quality criteria, as well as ecological potential criteria (also criteria of good ecological potential) of a heavily modified or artificial water body.

2. In order to prepare a river basin management plan (hereinafter - the management plan) and programmes of measures, as well as to specify the environmental quality objectives to be included in the management plan (hereinafter - the environmental quality objective), valsts sabiedrība ar ierobežotu atbildību "Latvijas Vides, ģeoloģijas un meteoroloģijas centrs" [State limited liability company Latvian Environment, Geology and Meteorology Centre] (hereinafter - the Centre), on the basis of the existing monitoring data and other data obtained, processed and compiled prior to the development of the management plan over an extended period of time, shall:

2.1. determine the water body types of rivers, lakes, coastal and transitional waters according to the criteria set out in Annex 1 to this Regulation;

2.2. according to the type, divide rivers, lakes, coastal and transitional waters into surface water bodies;

2.3. classify surface water bodies and heavily modified or artificial water bodies;

2.4. determine the environmental quality objectives for surface water bodies and, taking into account the quality of the particular water body and the impact of anthropogenic load thereon, determine the surface water bodies at risk of failing the environmental quality objectives.

[11 August 2009]

3. Upon the request of the Centre, State and local government authorities shall provide the information at the disposal thereof and the data necessary in order to characterise the types of surface water bodies and to assess their quality, as well as to determine the anthropogenic load of surface water bodies.

[11 August 2009]

II. Characterisation of the Types of Surface Water Bodies

4. The criteria for the types of surface water bodies referred to in Annex 1 to this Regulation shall be taken into account in determining the type of surface water bodies. The type of an artificial or heavily modified water body shall be determined, using the criteria of the type of a surface water body most accurately corresponding to the characteristics thereof.

[11 August 2009]

5. Upon dividing rivers, lakes, coastal and transitional waters into surface water bodies, substantial circumstances (for example, impact of anthropogenic load (also morphological changes of a water reservoir or watercourse), use of waters for extraction of drinking water, their relation to protected territories) shall be assessed, as well as the following conditions shall be complied with:

5.1. only surface water bodies corresponding to the relevant type of water bodies shall be joined into one water body;

5.2. the water body does not overlap with another water body and does not cross borders of another water body;

5.3. the water body according to the ecological and chemical quality is homogeneous;

5.4. waters of the water body are deemed discrete and significant elements of the hydrographical network.

6. Taking into account the conditions referred to in Paragraph 5 of this Regulation, a separate water body shall be:

6.1. a river or rivers, the catchment basin of which exceeds 100 km2;

6.2. a lake, the surface area of which is 0.5 km2 or more;

6.3. a river which has a smaller catchment basin or a lake which has a smaller surface area than that referred in Sub-paragraph 6.1 or 6.2 of this Regulation accordingly, if a separate water body is necessary in order to achieve the environmental quality objectives.

[11 August 2009]

7. The surface waters existing in the protected territories specified in the Water Management Law may be separate water bodies, if separate water body is necessary in order to ensure the protection and management of the particular territory and if such waters are deemed discrete and significant elements of the drainage system.

III. Procedures for the Determination of Anthropogenic Load and Procedures for Limiting the Emission of Priority Substances

8. In order to determine the load caused by anthropogenic activities for surface water bodies in each river basin district, the Centre shall:

8.1. compile and analyse information regarding the most substantial anthropogenic loads, including regarding extraction of water (taking into account the seasonal fluctuation of extraction of water, the total quantity of extraction of water per year and water losses in the distribution system) and determine such economic activities, which are related to industry, agriculture, community management and other fields of activities and due to which:

8.1.1. point or diffuse source pollution occurs;

8.1.2. polluting substances - priority substances and also substances especially hazardous and hazardous to the aquatic environment - specified in laws and regulations regarding water protection are discharged into water;

8.1.3. the hydrological regime or morphology of surface waters changes, including due to deviation or redistribution of water flow;

8.2. survey the actual and planned (permitted) type of spatial planning specified in the spatial plans in effect (if such spatial plan does not exist, the type of land use shall be surveyed);

8.3. determine the economic activities, which should be taken into account when characterising the anthropogenic load of rivers, lakes, transitional and coastal waters, as well as artificial and heavily modified water bodies;

8.4. develop criteria, according to which the significance of anthropogenic loads, as well as the causes, extent and impact of anthropogenic loads shall be assessed;

8.5. evaluate whether it is possible to achieve the environmental quality objectives put forward for the water body or there is a risk of failing them.

[11 August 2009; 10 November 2020]

9. In assessing the anthropogenic load, the Centre shall use the data of water monitoring and information obtained in preparing the characterisation of the river basin.

[11 August 2009]

10. Priority substances and hazardous substances and the procedures for limiting emissions thereof shall be determined in laws and regulations regarding emissions of polluting substances into water.

[10 November 2020]

IV. Classification of and Quality Criteria for Surface Water Bodies, as well as Ecological Potential Criteria of a Heavily Modified or Artificial Water Body

11. Surface water bodies shall be divided in ecological quality classes and chemical quality classes.

12. Surface water bodies, in accordance with the ecological quality criteria (biological, hydromorphological, chemical and physico-chemical) specified in Annex 3 to this Regulation and the explanation of criteria specified in Annex 4, shall be divided into high (reference) ecological quality class, good ecological quality class or moderate ecological quality class. If data show that ecological quality of a water body is worse than the moderate, it shall be divided into poor ecological quality class or bad ecological quality class in order to be able to select the most appropriate measures for improvement of the relevant water body condition.

12.1 In determining the ecological quality class, the Centre shall take into account:

12.11. the monitoring data and other data obtained over an extended period of time;

12.12. the results of modelling;

12.13. the load caused by anthropogenic activities on the water body, which has been determined in accordance with Chapter III of this Regulation.

[11 August 2009]

13. Ecological quality of a surface water body is high (reference condition) if it has been established in monitoring that:

13.1. values of biological, psysico-chemical and hydromorphological criteria conform to waters of the relevant type totally or nearly totally undisturbed by anthropogenic activities and the natural habitats observed are characteristic to waters of the relevant type;

13.2. synthetic substances (of artificial origin) are not detected in the water body or their concentration in water is lower than the concentration to be determined in a laboratory (such concentration, which may be detected during defining of the reference condition using available technological methods, shall be deemed the lowest concentration to be determined);

13.3. the concentration of polluting substances of natural origin in water detected in the water body conforms to the background level characteristic to waters of the relevant type undisturbed by anthropogenic activities.

[11 August 2009]

14. Ecological quality of a surface water body is good if values of biological and physico-chemical criteria obtained in monitoring only slightly differ from the values that have been determined for a surface water body of high quality (reference condition).

15. Ecological quality of a surface water body is moderate if values of biological and physico-chemical criteria obtained in monitoring are lower than the values that have been determined for a surface water body of good quality.

16. Ecological quality of a surface water body is poor if values of biological and physico-chemical criteria obtained in monitoring are lower than the values that have been determined for a surface water body of moderate quality, and the species and natural habitats found in the water body significantly differ from those characteristic to surface water bodies of the relevant type, which are not affected by anthropogenic activities.

17. Ecological quality of a surface water body is bad if values of biological and physico-chemical criteria obtained in monitoring are lower than the values that have been determined for a surface water body of poor quality, and majority of the species and natural habitats characteristic to surface water bodies of the relevant type not affected by anthropogenic activities are not found in the water body.

18. Artificial and heavily modified water bodies according to the ecological quality shall be divided into the highest possible ecological potential class, good ecological potential class, moderate ecological potential class, poor ecological potential class or bad ecological potential class. In order to determine the ecological potential of an artificial or heavily modified water body, the water body shall be considered as equivalent to the type of rivers, lakes, water bodies of transitional waters or coastal waters, to which the characteristics of the artificial or heavily modified water body correspond to the most. Upon dividing the particular artificial or heavily modified water body into an ecological potential class, the ecological quality criteria specified in this Regulation for the corresponding type of surface water bodies shall be used.

19. Surface water bodies and artificial and heavily modified water bodies shall be divided into a good chemical quality class or poor chemical quality class according to the chemical quality. Such surface water bodies and artificial and heavily modified water bodies shall be divided into the good chemical quality class, the concentration of chemical substances in which does not exceed the environmental quality norms specified in the laws and regulations regarding environmental protection.

20. If the monitoring data show that a surface water body, taking into account different biological, hydromorphological, chemical or physico-chemical criteria, conforms to different quality classes (is not homogeneous), it shall be divided into the lowest quality class.

21. In order to determine which values of the ecological quality criteria conform to each quality class and to ensure the mutual comparability of classes, the Centre:

21.1. shall determine the quality criteria values corresponding to the reference condition (high quality or the highest possible ecological potential) on the basis of the monitoring data of reference objects, applying modelling or combining both of the referred to methods. If it is not possible to use such methods, the reference condition may be determined, taking into account an opinion of experts;

21.2. if the reference condition is determined on the basis of monitoring data, the Centre shall create a network of reference objects, including therein water bodies belonging to all the types specified in Annex 1 to this Regulation, conforming to the high quality (reference condition) class. Such number of reference objects shall be selected, which allows to determine credible quality criteria values, taking into account the variability of the criteria and the information necessary for modelling;

21.3. if the reference condition is determined by applying modelling, the Centre shall use information obtained over an extended period of time, the data on sediment composition and other data ensuring the credibility and conformity of values of the criteria characterising the reference condition with the relevant type of water bodies;

21.4. if it is not possible to determine credible values of the criteria of reference conditions due to their high natural variability, the relevant quality criteria need not be used for the quality assessment of the relevant type. In such case it shall be justified in the river basin district management plan why such criteria has not been used;

21.5. values of the highest possible ecological potential determined for artificial or heavily modified water bodies shall be reviewed once every six years.

[11 August 2009]

21.1 In order to ensure the comparability of monitoring systems in the European Union, the Centre shall:

21.11. carry out monitoring in order to obtain data for the determination of values of biological quality criteria;

21.12. express the results of the monitoring referred to in Sub-paragraph 21.1 1 of this Regulation in the form of ecological quality coefficients, showing the ratio of the value of biological criteria observed in a water body and the value of the same criteria in the reference object. The coefficients shall be expressed in numerical values from zero to one where the value, which is close to one, shall indicate high quality class and the values of poor quality class shall be close to zero;

21.13. express the limits of ecological quality classes in numerical values, dividing the eocological quality coefficients in five quality classes;

21.14. ensure the comparison of limit values between a high and good quality class, as well as between a good and moderate quality class within the framework of a process for the comparison of quality assessment systems organised by the European Union (hereinafter - the intercalibration) and use the results of intercalibration for determination of the limits of quality classes;

21.15. a corresponding monitoring of water bodies shall be carried out for each type selected in the intercalibration process.

Annex 4
Cabinet Regulation No. 858
19 October 2004

Criteria for the Determination of High, Good and Moderate Ecological Quality of Surface Water Bodies

[11 August 2009]

1. Rivers

No.

High status

Good status

Moderate status

1.1. Biological criteria
1.1.1. Phytoplankton
  The composition of taxonomic groups of phytoplankton corresponds totally or nearly totally to conditions undisturbed by anthropogenic activities.

The average phytoplankton abundance is wholly consistent with the type-specific physico-chemical conditions of surface water bodies and is not such as to significantly alter the type-specific water transparency conditions. Planktonic blooms occur at a frequency and intensity which is consistent with the type-specific physic-chemical conditions of surface water bodies.

There are slight changes in the composition and abundance of planktonic taxa compared to the type-specific communities of water bodies. Such changes do not indicate any accelerated growth of algae resulting in undesirable disturbances to the balance of organisms present in the water body or to the physico-chemical quality of the water or sediment. A slight increase in the frequency and intensity of the type-specific planktonic blooms may occur. There are changes in the composition and abundance of planktonic taxa compared to the type-specific communities of water bodies exceeding good quality indicators and a significant undesirable disturbance in the values of other biological and physico-chemical quality elements may occur.

A moderate increase in the frequency and intensity of planktonic blooms may occur in comparison to good status. Persistent blooms of phytoplankton may occur during summer months.

1.1.2. Macrophytes and phytobenthos
  The composition of taxonomic groups of macrophytes and phytobenthos corresponds totally or nearly totally to conditions undisturbed by anthropogenic activities.

There are no detectable changes in the average macrophytic and the average phytobenthic abundance.

There are slight changes in the indicators of the composition and abundance of macrophytic and phytobenthic taxa compared to the type-specific communities. Such changes do not indicate any accelerated growth of phytobenthos or higher forms of plant life resulting in undesirable disturbances to the balance of organisms present in the water body or to the physico-chemical quality of the water or sediment. The phytobenthic community is not adversely affected by bacterial tufts and coats present due to anthropogenic activity. The indicators of the composition of macrophytic and phytobenthic taxa differ from the type-specific community and are significantly more distorted than at good status. Moderate changes in the average macrophytic and the average phytobenthic abundance are evident in comparison to good status.

The phytobenthic community may be interfered with and in some areas, displaced by bacterial tufts and coats present as a result of anthropogenic activities.

1.1.3. Benthic invertebrate fauna
  The indicators of the composition and abundance of taxonomic groups of benthic invertebrate taxa correspond totally or nearly totally to conditions undisturbed by anthropogenic activities.

The ratio of disturbance sensitive taxa to insensitive taxa shows no signs of alteration from levels undisturbed by anthropogenic activities.

The level of diversity of invertebrate taxa shows no sign of alteration from levels undisturbed by anthropogenic activities.

There are slight changes in the indicators of the composition and abundance of benthic invertebrate taxa compared to the type-specific communities.

The ratio of disturbance-sensitive taxa to insensitive taxa shows slight alteration from type-specific levels of water bodies.

The level of diversity of invertebrate taxa shows slight signs of alteration from type-specific levels undisturbed by anthropogenic activities.

The composition and abundance of benthic invertebrate taxa differ from the type-specific community more than for good status. Major taxonomic groups of the type-specific community are absent.

The ratio of disturbance-sensitive taxa to insensitive taxa, and the level of diversity, are substantially lower than the type-specific level and significantly lower than for good status.

1.1.4. Fish fauna
  The indicators of the composition and abundance of taxonomic groups of fish correspond totally or nearly totally to conditions undisturbed by anthropogenic activities.

All the type-specific disturbance-sensitive fish species are present.

The age structures of the fish communities show little sign of anthropogenic disturbance and are not indicative of a failure in the reproduction or development of any particular species.
