The information required is summarised below: 1. Details of whether MCPB (CAS No. 94-81-5), Dichlorprop-P (CAS No. 15165-67-0), and total Dichlorprop (CAS No. 120-36-5) are monitored in surface waters, groundwaters and drinking water in Estonia, including whether there is a national or regional monitoring program for these substances 2. If monitored could you provide; * Any available data for the period 2015-2021 to include: sites and samples monitored (ideally with location grid references if available), sampling frequency and whether sampling is seasonal, values found (inc. maximum and minimum values), number of samples analysed and limits of detection. Ideally a summary of the data could be provided in a table similar to the below, however any raw data formats would also be helpful * In the case of Dichlorprop-P, is this measured as Dichlorprop-P (CAS No. 15165-67-0) or total Dichlorprop (CAS No. 120-36-5)? * Details and proof of the accreditation or quality assurance programmes utilised by the laboratories undertaking the analysis (e.g ISO, GLP), and details of whether a validated method was used. Does your laboratory have an international accreditation? * Any explanation for positive detections such as pesticide application, accidental spillage etc Please could you also tell me if an Environmental Quality Standard (under the Water Framework Directive) has been set for any of the three pesticides in Estonia.
