Name Hazardous Substances Emission Discharges from Point Sources
Definition Annual hazardous substances emissions (discharges) from point sources to rivers and lakes or groundwater are requested from EEA Member Countries on a three year basis. However, if major changes have occurred, annual reporting is requested.
Methodology for obtaining data Annual hazardous substances emissions from point sources to rivers and lakes are requested. Direct discharges to coastal water are part of SoE Reporting: Transitional, Coastal and Marine Waters.
Data should be aggregated at the national RBD level. A phased approach to reporting is expected, with the level of spatial detail increasing progressively over time. Consequently, it is intended that RBD scale data provided in the first years of reporting be replaced as RB (sub-unit), or waterbody information becomes available and should be supplied by electronic means at this time. Hazardous substances emission loads should be split in the categories provided in the code list.
We would like to encourage all countries to provide annual hazardous substances emissions from point sources, for as long a time series as possible. If the data was provided by WFD, E-PRTR or SoE Transitional, Coastal and Marine Waters (Riverine load or Direct Discharges) reporting, please flag using value -1, -3 or -5 respectively.
