In the second RBMPs of WFD countries[2], around 8 000 surface water bodies (about 6 % of total) were affected by significant pressures from abstraction, with the highest share in Hungary, Spain, Cyprus, and Bulgaria. For around half of these surface water bodies, significant pressures from abstractions are linked to agriculture, while abstractions for public water supply and industry are also major pressures.

[2] Throughout this report, the term WFD countries has been used to cover the countries that implement the WFD: the 27 EU Member States, Norway and United Kingdom.
