environmental monitoring

1. Environmental Monitoring

- a description of the envisaged methods for monitoring the state of the environment during implementation of the plan;

b) Earth observation research and applications, in particular environmental monitoring, meteorology, aeronomy and geodesy;

(b) Earth observation research and applications, in particular environmental monitoring, meteorology, aeronomy and geoinformatics, disaster management;

envisaged methods of monitoring the state of the environment during implementation of the plan;

- what methods of monitoring the state of the environment during the implementation of the plan are envisaged.

(1) The decision approving the plan shall also contain a decision, on the basis of the environmental report, on the monitoring of the state of the environment as a result of the implementation of the plan.

It provides a basis for deciding whether to approve or reject the proposed disposal option and for defining environmental monitoring requirements.

13. Environment monitoring is the continuous observation and supervision of the state of the environment through the systematic measurement of specific parameters of environmental elements at selected places and related supervisory procedures intended for the discovery of changes in the environment from the viewpoint of these parameters.

VII. MONITORING ENVIRONMENTAL AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION INFORMATION SYSTEM

(1) Parliament shall establish an Environmental Protection Council (hereinafter " Council ") to oversee the state of environmental protection.

"(c) if the results of the monitoring which the Member States are obliged to carry out on the environment concerned reveal a deterioration in the area under consideration, or".

For the surveillance and monitoring of the environments affected, Member States may, at any time, lay down other parameters in addition to those laid down by this Directive.

COUNCIL DIRECTIVE of 3 December 1982 on procedures for the surveillance and monitoring of environments concerned by waste from the titanium dioxide industry (82/883/EEC)

Whereas, for the surveillance and monitoring of the environments affected, Member States may at any time lay down other parameters in addition to those laid down by this Directive;

For the monitoring and inspection of the environments affected, Member States shall determine the frequency of sampling and analysis for each parameter listed in the Annexes.

(2) A party responsible for an environmental strain shall bear the costs of establishing a new state or the restoration of the previous state of the environment in cases of the exploitation of natural goods, including the costs of monitoring and supervising their effects.

Member States shall carry out surveillance and monitoring of the environments affected and of a neighbouring zone deemed to be unaffected, special account being taken of local environmental factors and the manner of disposal, i.e. whether intermittent or continuous.

This Directive lays down, pursuant to Article 7 (3) of Directive 78/176/EEC, the procedures for the surveillance and monitoring of the effects on the environment, having regard to its physical, chemical, biological and ecological aspects, of the discharge, dumping, storage on, tipping on or injection into the ground of waste from the titanium dioxide industry.

Whereas, irrespective of the method and extent of the treatment of wastes from the titanium dioxide industry, the discharge, dumping, storage on, tipping on or injection into the ground of such wastes must be accompanied by measures for the surveillance and monitoring of the environments concerned from a physical, chemical, biological and ecological point of view;

The Commission shall assess the effectiveness of the procedure for the surveillance and monitoring of the environments affected and shall - no later than six years after notification of this Directive - place before the Council, if appropriate, proposals to improve this procedure and, if necessary, to harmonize the methods of measurement including their limit of detection, accuracy and precision and the sampling methods.

ecological monitoring.

(g) environmental monitoring records.

(e) the results of environmental monitoring;

the desirability of establishing a framework for a cooperative environmental monitoring programme, based on and taking into account present and future national, sub-regional, regional and other international programmes;

environmental control and monitoring procedures exist and function adequately in critical areas, for example, animal and other biological test systems rooms, test substance storage areas, laboratory areas,

General surveillance and environmental monitoring programmes in general may similarly assist in this context.

the results of the monitoring of the aquatic environment carried out in accordance with Article 3. Where appropriate, these should be submitted within the framework of the Joint Monitoring Programme.

Monitoring, data collection and reporting requirements should be addressed efficiently in future environmental legislation;

General surveillance could, where compatible, make use of established routine surveillance practises such as monitoring of agricultural crops, plant protection, veterinary and medical products as well as ecological monitoring, environmental observation and nature conservation programmes.

Council Directive 82/883/EEC of 3 December 1982 on procedures for the surveillance and monitoring of environments concerned by waste from the titanium dioxide industry

This would include existing environment observation programmes in the field of agriculture, food surveys, nature conservation, ecological long-term monitoring programmes, soil observation and veterinary surveys.

Council Directive 82/883/EEC of 3 December 1982 on procedures for the surveillance and monitoring of environments concerned by waste from the titanium dioxide industry (OJ No L 378, 31. 12. 1982, p. 1)

Council Directive 82/883/EEC of 3 December 1982 on procedures for the surveillance and monitoring of environments concerned by waste from the titanium-dioxide industry (OJ No L 378, 31.12.1982, p. 1),

These systems may include observation programmes in the field of agriculture, food surveys, nature conservation, long-term ecological monitoring systems, environment observation programmes and veterinary surveys.

Whereas the fourth action programme, in continuation of the earlier Action Programmes, lists amongst its main areas of activity, monitoring and control with a view to improving water quality and reducing pollution;

Community vessels shall admit on board scientific staff, without powers of inspection, to be responsible for gathering data which will make it possible to monitor the state of exploitation of Mozambican fisheries resources, as well as environmental data.

Council Directive 82/883/EEC of 3 December 1982 on procedures for the surveillance and monitoring of environments concerned by waste from the titanium-dioxide industry (OJ No L 378, 31.12.1982, p. 1), as amended by:

(27) Since the objectives of the proposed action, namely the monitoring of forests, their condition and environment interactions, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can, therefore, be better achieved at Community level, the Community may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty.

the results of environmental monitoring;

Surveillance and monitoring of the environment concerned

the results of the monitoring of the environment concerned carried out pursuant to Article 7,

Whereas the exchange of information provided for in this Decision would lay the foundations for a system for monitoring surface fresh-water pollution at Community level and could constitute a component of the global environmental monitoring system provided for in the United Nations environment programme;

-the results of the monitoring referred to in Article 4 of the area of the aquatic environment which is affected by discharges,

Whereas discharge, dumping, storage, tipping and injecting of waste must be accompanied both by monitoring of the waste and monitoring and surveillance of the environment concerned;

if the results of the monitoring provided for in Annex II (B) reveal a deterioration in the environment concerned in the area under consideration, or

Bodies of water forming these areas shall be included within the operational monitoring programme referred to above where, on the basis of the impact assessment and the surveillance monitoring, they are identified as being at risk of failing to meet their environmental objectives under Article 4.

Within one year of notification of this Directive, the Commission shall submit to the Council a proposal on the procedures for the surveillance and monitoring of the environments concerned.
