Description
A WFD measure is defined as a measure that is required to comply with directives or other legislation introduced before the adoption of the WFD. This issue is complicated by the fact that one of the objectives of the WFD was to provide a unified and streamlined approach to EU water legislation. It therefore incorporates and, in some cases, repeals and replaces a number of directives relating to water. It is the practical application of the distinction between measures relating to Directives in existence prior to WFD and those measures that are required by the new objectives included in the WFD (such as achieving good ecological status). Defining whether a given measure is a pre-WFD or a WFD measure is the same as determining the legal driver for implementing that particular measure.
