7.4.3.      Measures (NiD etc.)

While clear improvements in the nutrient content of water over recent years are evident in some agricultural catchments across Europe, for others the situation is worsening or has stabilised but with concentrations at a high level. These findings reflect the fact that while some action has been taken in certain locations, compliance with the environmental objectives of the WFD is not required until 2015. Furthermore, appropriate measures under the ND have only recently been implemented in many countries and, in others, full compliance is yet to be achieved.
