The Commission admits that the EQS in the drinking water directive is outdated, but we see no initiative from the Commissions side to review de drinking water directive. 1 If you need more information on the discussions we had within the group on this subject, please contact He is the sub-pilot for groundwater for this file. VLAAMSE MILIEUMAATSCHAPPIJ @vmm.be Van: @envcoord.health.fgov..be <owner- @envcoord.health..fgov.be> Namens (SPF Sant Publique - FOD Volksgezondheid) Verzonden: dinsdag 28 november 2023 11:22 Aan: @envcoord.health.fgov.be Onderwerp: [ ] RE: Council of the European Union - Delegates Portal: Community document(s) registered between November 13, 2023 00:01 and November 20, 2023 00:01 Chers collgues, Au vu de l'actualit en Wallonie pour les PFAS, nous nous posons, au SPF Environnement (service REACH), les questions suivantes en relation au document en annexe (dat du 14/11) et en particulier sur la position belge qui y est exprime : - n'est-il pas logique de fixer la qualit des eaux souterraines un seuil bas (plus bas que pour l'eau potable) afin de pouvoir encore effectuer si ncessaire des mlanges d'eaux comme c'est le cas actuellement afin de repasser sous les 100ng/l dans l'eau potable ? - comment un seuil de 100ng/l dans les eaux souterraines peut-il tre compatible avec un seuil de vigilance de 30ng/l comme propos en Wallonie ? - pourquoi la position belge semble-t-elle dire que le problme de sant (norme de l'EFSA) et les concentrations dans l'eau souterraine sont deux problmes distincts, en disant que les eaux souterraines seraient une question environnementale ? Il nous semble qu'une des principales justifications des seuils dans les eaux souterraines est la protection de la sant humaine (eau potable). - quelles consquences aurait une situation o les eaux souterraines seraient terme 100ng/l, et que donc une puration charbon actif s'avrerait ncessaire de manire gnralise ? (sans compter que les courtes chanes seraient peu retenues par ces filtres).
