Sulphur dioxide is a pollutant mainly emitted by ships.

The Commission has also started taking action on another carcinogenic pollutant, NO for which EU legislation has set limits since 2010.

3. Where a Member State applies paragraphs 1 or 2, it shall ensure that the limit value for each pollutant is not exceeded by more than the maximum margin of tolerance specified in Annex XI for each of the pollutants concerned.

...icators for which Member States have to consider establishing threshold values can now be removed only by codecision; deletion of a comment in the table in Annex I (‘Groundwater Quality Standards’) stating - in relation to the setting of 50 mg/l as the quality standard for the pollutant ‘Nitrates’ - that for activities falling within the scope of the Nitrates Directive (Directive 91/676/EEC), programmes and measures required in relation to this value of 50 mg/l will be in accordance with the Nitrates Directive; insertion of a new sentence making it clear that the starting point for trend reversal measures may be set higher than 75% ...[+++]- but only if the rate of increase and the reversibility of the trend are such that the starting point would still enable such measures to prevent most cost-effectively, or at least mitigate as far as possible, any environmentally significant detrimental changes in groundwater quality (already in common position text) and if such a starting point would not lead to any delay in achieving the deadline for the environmental objectives (new provision introduced as part of the conciliation); introduction of a new phrase at the end of point 1, subparagraph 2 of Annex IV, Part B (‘Starting Points for Trend Reversals’) to emphasise the importance of adhering to the Groundwater Directive’s environmental objectives for water protection as follows: “For activities falling within the scope of Directive 91/676/EEC, the starting point for implementing measures to reverse significant and sustained upward trends will be established in accordance with that Directive and with Directive 2000/60/EC and, in particular, adhering to environmental objectives for water protection as set out in its article 4”; insertion of “Measures to prevent or limit inputs of pollutants into groundwater bodies used for or intended for future use for the abstraction of water intended for human consumption should include such measures as are necessary to ensure that under the water treatment regime applied, and in accordance with Community legislation, the resulting water will meet the requirements of the Drinking Water Directive. ...
