Changes to Legislation

Changes and effects yet to be applied by the editorial team are only applicable when viewing the latest version or prospective version of legislation. They are therefore not accessible when viewing legislation as at a specific point in time. To view the ‘Changes to Legislation’ information for this provision return to the latest version view using the options provided in the ‘What Version’ box above.

8.6.1. Spatial Object Types U.K.

The following spatial object types shall be used for the exchange and classification of spatial objects related to Hydro - Reporting:

  • WFD Coastal Water

  • WFD Ground Water Body

  • WFD Lake

  • WFD River

  • WFD River or Lake

  • WFD Surface Water Body

  • WFD Transitional Water

  • WFD Water Body

8.6.1.1.WFD Coastal Water (WFDCoastalWater)U.K.

Surface water on the landward side of a line, every point of which is at a distance of one nautical mile on the seaward side from the nearest point of the baseline from which the breadth of territorial waters is measured, extending where appropriate up to the outer limit of transitional waters.

This type is a sub-type of WFDSurfaceWaterBody.

This type is a candidate type to be considered by the spatial data theme Area management/restriction/regulation zones and reporting units in Annex III to Directive 2007/2/EC.

Constraints of the spatial object type WFDCoastalWater U.K.

Coastal water geometry must be a surface

8.6.1.2.WFD Ground Water Body (WFDGroundWaterBody)U.K.

A distinct volume of groundwater within an aquifer or aquifers.

This type is a sub-type of WFDWaterBody.

This type is a candidate type to be considered by the spatial data theme Area management/restriction/regulation zones and reporting units in Annex III to Directive 2007/2/EC.

8.6.1.4.WFD River (WFDRiver)U.K.

A body of inland water flowing for the most part on the surface of the land but which may flow underground for part of its course.

This type is a sub-type of WFDRiverOrLake.

This type is a candidate type to be considered by the spatial data theme Area management/restriction/regulation zones and reporting units in Annex III to Directive 2007/2/EC.

Timeline of Changes

This timeline shows the different versions taken from EUR-Lex before exit day and during the implementation period as well as any subsequent versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation.

The dates for the EU versions are taken from the document dates on EUR-Lex and may not always coincide with when the changes came into force for the document.

For any versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation the date will coincide with the earliest date on which the change (e.g an insertion, a repeal or a substitution) that was applied came into force. For further information see our guide to revised legislation on Understanding Legislation.
