For example agriculture is a key source of diffuse pollution.
The diffuse pollution from the agriculture used to be neglected in the past and therefore the data for its extent lacks.
However, challenges still remain, especially with regards to diffuse pollution from agriculture.
Observations 22 40 For instance, figures concerning diffuse pollution in Latvia's river basin management plans are lower than the corresponding figures in the Helcom database referred to in the same year.
The Court recommends that the Commission provides guidance on the possible methods for recovery of environmental damage costs in the field of diffuse pollution.
The application of the тpolluter paysу principle in the field of diffuse pollution from agriculture faces methodological problems.
These apparent inconsistencies raise questions about the reliability of monitoring data,in particular as regards the figures on transboundary pollution and diffuse pollution.
These river basin management plans also include measures for the control of diffuse pollution(see paragraph 10) which however were already in place before the adoption of the plans.
The diffuse pollution of water sources from the pesticides and fertilisers used in farming systems has been addressed with varying degrees of success by current policy tools but clearly remains an obstacle to achieving the Water Framework Directive objectives.
According to the European Environmental Agency's 2018 report on the state of European waters, agricultural production is the major source of diffuse pollution(mostly as a result of nutrient runoff, as well as chemicals like pesticides), which affects 38% of EU surface waters(such as rivers, lakes, wetlands and streams).
This organization causes a potential for institutional and stakeholder conflicts at the national and regional level,as well as a financial bias toward overexploitation of ecosystems for harvesting their tradeable services while externalizing of ecosystem disservices(such as ecosystem fragmentation, diffuse pollution, and so on).
The audit showed that,for the purpose of the Helcom targets, estimates of diffuse pollution are made on the basis of a common methodology at country level, but not at lower levels, such as that of a river basin, sub-basin or body of water.
EEA report No 8/2012 recognises that the positive evolution of nitrate concentrations is partly due to measures to reduce agricultural inputs of nitrates at European and Member State level, butthat‘additional measures are needed to reduce diffuse pollution if the majority of water bodies are to have nitrate levels comparable to high or good ecological status in 2027'.
This is particularly true in the case of data on transboundary and diffuse pollution, which is crucial for a fair allocation of reduction targets by country and for establishing appropriate measures(see paragraphs 37 to 41).
This detailed assessment of the different pollution sources is known as a‘source apportionment approach'(comprehensive waterborne pollution load compilations- PLC), which quantifies waterborne discharges from point sources(agglom-erations, industries and fish farms) and from diffuse pollution sources(agriculture, managed forestry, atmospheric deposition, scattered dwellings and rainwater) as well as natural background losses into inland surface waters.
Measures and instruments implemented by the Member States in order to tackle diffuse pollution from agriculture 99 An important way to reduce emissions from agriculture is to regulate farming practices(e.g. rules on the use of fertilisers, the storage of manure, the use of pesticides, crop rotation, etc.).
Under the water framework directive, where the basic measures- implementation of the nitrates directive andthe other measures for the control of diffuse pollution(see paragraph 29)- are insufficient to achieve good water status, as is the case in the Baltic Sea region, supplementary measures should be implemented in the catchment areas of water bodies which are failing to achieve good water status.
ТPolluter paysу principle only applied to a limited extent to diffuse pollution from agriculture The тpolluter paysу principle is difficult to apply 158 According to the environmental liability directive110, the prevention and remedying of environmental damage should be implemented through the furtherance of the тpolluter paysу principle: an operator whose activity has caused environmental damage is to be held financially liable.
In many cases they are not proportionate to the seriousness of the farmerуs breach of cross-compliance obligations. 159 The application of the тpolluter paysу principle in the field of diffuse pollution from agriculture poses methodological problems: on the one hand it is difficult to identify the polluter and on the other hand it is difficult to establish a causal relationship between a certain practice by the farmer and the level of pollution or damage caused.
Conclusions and recommendations 61 Implementation of measures to tackle diffuse pollution from agriculture 183 In general, Member States made better use of the nitrates directive but were reluctant to make full use of the instruments available such as the enforcement mechanisms, the GAEC standards under cross-compliance, the rural development measures and the тpolluter paysу principle.
For all four Member States the Commission remarked that the costs resulting from diffuse pollution from the agricultural sector should be calculated and included in the economic analysis of costs and their recovery, but it does not request an action plan for Member States that do not or only partially recover the costs of diffuse pollution.

Diffuse sources of pollution are widespread and/or concentrated in highly populated areas.
Despite greatly improved waste-water treatment, diffuse nutrient pollution stemming from agriculture remains a major problem in the coastal and marine environment;
They must include in their programme of measures measures to control diffuse sources of pollution to allow good status to be reached.
A large number of many tiny emissions from houses andvehicles represent collectively a large, diffuse source of pollution, in particular in cities.
Inputs of pollutants from diffuse sources of pollution having an impact on the groundwater chemical status shall be taken into account whenever technically possible.
The pressures reported to affect most surface water bodies are pollution from diffuse sources causing nutrient enrichment, and hydromorphological pressures causing altered habitats.
