	abstract = {River quality in Europe has traditionally been determined using physico-chemical
		elements and benthic invertebrate fauna (FBA, 2000), often with classification computed by not considering background values for those elements. The classification
		requirements introduced by the WFD involve a considerable burden to the rivermanagement authorities that are forced to develop monitoring programs, including
		all biological elements/parameters and to establish the appropriate protection/
		restoration measures. This chapter provides an overview of the European water legislation relevant to river quality, with emphasis on the Water Framework Directive (WFD).
