2013/39/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, andfCommission Directive 2014/101/EU.2In this Part “protection of the water environment” includes, in particular—apreventing further deterioration of, and protecting and enhancing, the status of aquatic ecosystems and, with regard to their water needs, terrestrial ecosystems and wetlands directly depending on those aquatic ecosystems,bpromoting sustainable water use based on the long-term protection of available water resources,caiming at enhancing protection and improvement of the aquatic environment through, amongst other things, specific measures for the progressive reduction of discharges, emissions and losses of priority substances and the cessation or phasing out of discharges, emissions and losses of the priority hazardous substances,densuring the progressive reduction of pollution of groundwater and preventing further pollution of it, andecontributing to mitigating the effects of floods and droughts,with a view to contributing to the achievement of the aims specified in subsection (3).3Those aims are—athe provision of a sufficient supply of good quality surface water and groundwater as needed for sustainable, balanced and equitable water use,ba significant reduction in pollution of groundwater,cthe protection of territorial and other marine waters, anddachieving the objectives of international agreements, including those which aim to prevent and eliminate pollution of the marine environment, in relation to which measures are adopted under paragraph 1 of Article 16 of the Directive in pursuance of a proposal under paragraph 3 of that Article.The general duties21The Scottish Ministers and SEPA must exercise their functions under the relevant enactments so as to secure compliance with the requirements of the Directive , the Groundwater Directive and the Priority Substances Directive.2The responsible authorities must exercise their designated functions so as to secure compliance with the requirements of the Directive , the Groundwater Directive and the Priority Substances Directive.3Subsection (4) applies to—athe Scottish Ministers in exercising their functions, and SEPA in exercising its functions, under the relevant enactments in pursuance of subsection (1),bthe responsible authorities in exercising their designated functions in pursuance of subsection (2).4The Scottish Ministers, SEPA and the responsible authorities must—ahave regard to the social and economic impact of such exercise of those functions,bso far as is consistent with the purposes of the relevant enactment or designated function in question—ipromote sustainable flood risk management, andiiact in the way best calculated to contribute to the achievement of sustainable

responsible authority, means such of the authority’s functions relating to the water environment as are specified in relation to the authority in an order made by the Scottish Ministers (whether or not the order designating the authority as a responsible authority). The water environment: definitions31The following provisions have effect for the interpretation of this Part.2The water environment” means all surface water, groundwater and wetlands.3Surface water” means inland water (other than groundwater), transitional water and coastal water.4Groundwater” means water which is below the surface of the ground in the saturation zone and in direct contact with the ground or subsoil.5Wetland” means an area of ground the ecological, chemical and hydrological characteristics of which are attributable to frequent inundation or saturation by water and which is directly dependent, with regard to its water needs, on a body of groundwater or a body of surface water.6Inland water” means—aall standing or flowing water on the surface of the land (other than transitional water), andball groundwater,within the landward limits of coastal water.7Transitional water” means water (other than groundwater) in the vicinity of river mouths which is partly saline in character as a result of its proximity to coastal water but which is substantially influenced by freshwater flows.8Coastal water” means water (other than groundwater) within the area extending landward from the 3 mile limit up to the limit of the highest tide or, where appropriate, the seaward limits of any bodies of transitional water, but does not include any water beyond the seaward limits of the territorial sea of the United Kingdom adjacent to Scotland.9The 3 mile limit” means the limit consisting of a line every point of which is at a distance of 3 miles on the seaward side from the nearest point of the baseline from which the breadth of the territorial sea of the United Kingdom adjacent to Scotland is measured; and “miles” means international nautical miles of 1,852 metres.10Nothing in this Part applies to any water contained in—aartificial swimming pools,bmains or other pipes belonging to Scottish Water or which are used by Scottish Water or any other person for

treatment of pollutants.11The Scottish Ministers—amust deposit with SEPA maps showing what appear to them to be the landward and seaward limits of every body of transitional water,bmay, if they consider it appropriate to do so, deposit with SEPA maps showing the landward and seaward limits of coastal water,cmay, if they consider it appropriate to do so by reason of any change of what appears to them to be any of the limits referred to in paragraphs (a) and (b), deposit a map showing the revised limits.12SEPA must make the maps deposited with it under subsection (11) available, at all reasonable times, for public inspection free of charge.13In subsection (8), “the seaward limits of any bodies of transitional water” means the places for the time being shown as such in the latest map deposited under subsection (11).Chapter 2River basin management planning<Emphasis>River basin districts</Emphasis>Establishment of river basin districts41The Scottish Ministers must by order designate one or more river basin districts for the purposes of this Part.2A river basin district is an area, identified in the order, comprising one or more river basins together with any relevant bodies of groundwater and bodies of coastal water which are to form part of that river basin district in accordance with subsection (3).3A relevant body of groundwater or body of coastal water is to form part of the nearest river basin district or, if it appears to the Scottish Ministers that another river basin district is more appropriate, that district.4An order under subsection (1) (a “designation order”) must identify each river basin district by reference to a map prepared for the purposes of the order and laid before the Scottish Parliament.5The Scottish Ministers must send to SEPA a copy

this section, a “designation order”) designate an area of coastal water or transitional water as a shellfish water protected area for the purposes of this Part.2An area of coastal water or transitional water may be designated under subsection (1) only if the Scottish Ministers consider it necessary or desirable to do so for the protection or development of economically significant shellfish production.3The Scottish Ministers must review each designation order—aby 22 December 2019, andbby each date falling every 6 years (or such lesser period as the Scottish Ministers may determine) after 22 December 2019.4Subsection (3) applies to a designation order which comes into force after 22 December 2019 as if paragraph (a) were omitted.5A designation order which would, apart from this subsection, fall to be reviewed under subsection (3) by a particular date need not be reviewed by that date if the order came into force less than 6 months before that date; but must otherwise be reviewed in accordance with that subsection.6A designation order may identify the area of coastal water or transitional water by reference to a map prepared for the purposes of the order and laid before the Scottish Parliament.7 The Scottish Ministers must send SEPA a copy of— aa designation order, andbany map prepared in pursuance of subsection (6).Bodies of water used for the abstraction of drinking water61The Scottish Ministers must by order identify any bodies of water within each river basin district which—aare used for the abstraction of water intended for human consumption and either—iprovide more than 10 cubic metres of such water per day, oriiserve more than 50 persons, orbare intended to be used as mentioned in paragraph (a).2An order under subsection (1)

subsection (1), andbany map prepared in pursuance of subsection (2).Register of protected areas71SEPA must, for each river basin district—aby 22nd December 2004 prepare, andbthereafter maintain,a register of the protected areas lying (whether wholly or partly) within the district in accordance with regulations made by the Scottish Ministers.2Such regulations may, in particular, make provision as to—athe form and manner in which the register is to be prepared and maintained,bthe information which the register is to contain.3In this section, “protected areas” means—zaany shellfish water protected area,aany bodies of water identified under section 6, andbthe areas and bodies of water falling within subsection (4).4The areas and bodies of water falling within this subsection are those for the time being designated or otherwise identified as requiring special protection under any Community instrument providing for the protection of surface water and groundwater or for the conservation of habitats or species directly depending on water, or any enactment implementing such a Community instrument, including, in particular—aareas designated for the protection of economically significant aquatic species,bbodies of water designated as recreational waters,cnutrient-sensitive areas, anddareas designated for the protection of habitats or species where the maintenance or improvement of the status of water is an important factor in the protection of the habitats or species.5The Scottish Ministers may by regulations make such further provision for identifying, or enabling the identification of, the areas and bodies of water falling within subsection (4) as they consider necessary or expedient, including provision for identifying any of those areas or bodies of water by reference to—asuch Community instruments, or enactments implementing such instruments, as are specified in the regulations,bsuch other criteria as may be specified in the regulations.6SEPA must make the register available, at all reasonable times, for public inspection free of charge.Monitoring81SEPA must, in relation to each river basin district—acarry out, or secure the carrying out of, monitoring of the status of the water environment and relevant territorial water adjacent to the district, andbanalyse, or secure the analysis of, the information obtained under paragraph (a).2SEPA must prepare a programme for monitoring (whether by SEPA or other persons) the status of the water environment and relevant territorial water (a “monitoring programme”).3Monitoring in accordance with the monitoring programme must be commenced by 22nd December 2006.4Subsection (3) is subject to any provision made in regulations by virtue of subsection (5)(d).5The Scottish Ministers may by regulations make provision—aas to the nature and method of monitoring and analysis to be carried out (whether by SEPA or by other persons) for the purpose of subsection (1)(a),brequiring persons other than SEPA to carry out such monitoring and analysis,cas to the times at or by which, and the circumstances in which, such monitoring and analysis is to be carried out,dfor monitoring in accordance with the monitoring programme to be commenced in relation to such protected areas (within the meaning of section 7(3)) or descriptions of protected area as are specified in the regulations by such date (other than that specified in subsection (3)) as is specified in or determined under the regulations,eas to the provision to SEPA of information resulting from such monitoring and analysis carried out by persons other than SEPA,fas to the form and content of a monitoring programme,gas to consultation and other procedure in connection with the

the territorial sea of the United Kingdom adjacent to Scotland as is not coastal water or transitional water.Environmental objectives and programmes of measures91For the purposes of the river basin management plan for a river basin district SEPA must—aset environmental objectives for ieach body of water in the district, andiieach shellfish water protected area in the district, andbprepare a programme of measures to be applied to achieve those objectives.2In setting environmental objectives and preparing a programme of measures under this section, SEPA must take account of the characterisation of the river basin district concerned (and any review of it) carried out under section 5.3Environmental objectives may be set so as to apply with modifications in relation to particular descriptions of bodies of water or in particular circumstances.4The Scottish Ministers may by regulations make further provision as to the setting of environmental objectives and the preparation of programmes of measures under this section.5Regulations under subsection (4) making provision as to the setting of environmental objectives under this section may, in particular, include provision as to—athe types of environmental objective which may be set for particular descriptions of body of water,bthe date by which and the criteria by reference to which such objectives are to be

anddpublicise—ithe publication of the approved plan, andiithe arrangements for making copies of it available for public inspection in pursuance of paragraph (b).River basin management plans: review141SEPA must, no later than 6 years (or such lesser period as the Scottish Ministers may direct) from the date on which a river basin management plan was approved under section 13, review and update the plan.2Following such a review SEPA must, by such date as the Scottish Ministers may direct, prepare and submit to the Scottish Ministers a revised river basin management plan for the river basin district in question in respect of such period as the Scottish Ministers may direct.3The revised plan must include (in addition to the matters required to be included by section 10) the matters specified in Part 2 of schedule 1.4Sections 10(2) to (4), 11 to 13 and 17(3) apply in relation to the preparation, submission and approval of a revised river basin management plan.Sub-basin plans151For the purpose of supplementing the river basin management plan for a river basin district—aSEPA must—idivide the district into such geographical areas as it thinks fit, andiiprepare, for each of those areas, a plan in relation to water management within the area,bSEPA or a responsible authority may, if it thinks fit, prepare a plan in relation to a particular aspect of water management within the district.2A plan prepared under subsection (1)(b) may, for example, relate to—aa particular description of body of water,ba particular catchment or geographical area (whether or not an area determined in pursuance of subsection (1)(a)),ca particular matter relating to the water environment,da particular description of user of water resources.3A plan prepared under subsection (1)(a) or (b) is referred to in this Part as a “sub-basin plan”.4A sub-basin plan must not be inconsistent with anything in the river basin management plan which it supplements.5A sub-basin plan prepared under subsection (1)(b), so far as applying to an area determined in pursuance of subsection (1)(a), must not be inconsistent with the sub-basin plan prepared for that area under subsection (1)(a).6SEPA or, as the case may be, the responsible authority must consult such of the persons specified or referred to in section 11(6)(a) to (j) as it thinks fit about a proposed sub-basin plan and must take into account any views expressed by those consulted.7For the purposes of subsection (6) as it applies to a responsible authority, the references in section 11(6)(g) to (j) to SEPA are to be read as if they were references to that responsible authority.Duty to have regard to river basin management plans and sub-basin plans16The Scottish Ministers and every public body and office-holder must, in exercising any functions so far as affecting a river basin district, have regard to—athe river basin management plan for that district as approved under section 13,bso far as the exercise of the functions affects an area of the district determined in pursuance of section 15(1)(a), the sub-basin plan prepared for that area, andcso far as relevant, any sub-basin plan prepared under section 15(1)(b) for the purpose of supplementing the river basin management plan for the district.River Basin District Advisory Groups171Each river basin district is to have one or more River Basin District Advisory Groups.2The function of each Advisory Group is to advise SEPA on any matter which—arelates to the preparation of river basin management plans for the district, andbis within the remit of the Group.3SEPA must, in preparing a river basin management plan, have regard to any advice given by an Advisory Group.4The number of Advisory Groups, and their remits, membership and procedure, are to be such as SEPA may determine.5SEPA may determine the remit of an Advisory Group for any river basin district by reference to one or more of the following, namely—aa particular sub-basin plan,ba particular geographical area,cany other particular aspect of water management within the district.6In determining the number of Advisory Groups for any river basin district and their remits and membership, SEPA must seek to ensure appropriate representation of the interests of the persons specified or referred to in section 11(6)(a) to (h).7SEPA may pay to members of an Advisory Group such expenses and allowances as it may determine.<Emphasis>General</Emphasis>Power to obtain information and documents <Abbreviation Expansion="et cetera" xml:lang="la">etc.</Abbreviation>181The Scottish Ministers and any responsible authority must, on being requested to do so by SEPA, provide SEPA with—asuch information in their or, as the case may be, its possession or under their or its control,
