The European Water Framework Directive (WFD, EU Water Framework Directive, 2000) has several objectives. These objectives concern the protection of groundwater, inland surface waters, transitional waters and coastal waters. The main aim is to achieve a good ecological status by 2015. Apart from natural waters the WFD also considers artificial and heavily modified water bodies. According to Article 4(3) of the Water Framework Directive the principal environmental objective for heavily modified water bodies (HMWB) and for artificial water bodies are a “good ecological potential” (GEP) instead of a "good ecological status" (GES) and a “maximal ecological potential” (MEP) instead of a “pristine status”.
