2. Monitoring shall be carried out on soil, surface water and groundwater in order to provide data on nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations in soil water, on mineral nitrogen in the soil profile and nitrate concentrations in groundwater and surface water, both under derogation and non-derogation conditions.

The Report from the Commission to the Council and the European Parliament on the implementation of Directive 91/676/EEC concerning the protection of waters against pollution caused by nitrates from agricultural sources based on Member State reports for the period 2008-2011 shows that in the United Kingdom for the region of Northern Ireland for groundwater, all monitoring stations have mean nitrate concentrations below 50 mg/l and 93 % of monitoring stations have mean nitrate concentrations below 25 mg/l.

Therefore, a watch list for pollutants of groundwater should be established under the Common Implementation Strategy for Directive 2000/60/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) to increase the availability of monitoring data on substances posing a risk or potential risk to bodies of groundwater, and thereby facilitate the identification of substances, including emerging pollutants, for which groundwater quality standards or threshold values should be set.

Therefore, it is appropriate to require that the applicant submit further confirmatory information as regards: the specification of the technical material, as commercially manufactured, including appropriate analytical data, the relevance of the impurities, comparison and verification of the test material used in the mammalian toxicity and ecotoxicity dossiers against the specification of the technical material, analytical methods for the monitoring of the metabolite M6 (7) in soil, groundwater and surface water and for the monitoring of metabolite M9 (8) in groundwater, additional values regarding the period required for 50 percent diss ...[+++]ipation in soil for the soil metabolites P/V-54 (9) and P/V-55 (10), rotational crop metabolism, the long-term risk to granivorous birds, granivorous mammals and herbivorous mammals and the relevance for ground water of the soil metabolites P/V-54, P/V-55 and M9 if carboxin is classified under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council (11) as ‘suspected of causing cancer’.
