(Annex 4) GW Sub-Unit Optional See Guidance Document on the Reporting of Horizon Information (Annex 4) Glossary: clarification of terms and reporting requirements Some which have large number of water bodies with low pressures group water bodies for the assessment of pressures and status. The information reported for the water bodies belonging to a group will therefore be identical. Pressures and impacts on groundwater Introduction Article 5 of the WFD requires MS to identify the significant pressures present in the RBD likely to cause water bodies to be of less than good status. It also requires MS to assess the impacts on water bodies to support the determination of status. See section on pressures and impacts for surface water bodies for further background information. How will the Commission and EEA use the information The purpose of the collection of the information is to identify the main pressures within the RBD. The summary information will be used to compile maps at a European level of relevant pressures and to ensure that relevant pressures have been identified at RBD level. Statistics and information will be provided to the European Parliament at EU wide level. Information will be provided to the public through WISE.
