We suggest to create an option/a possibility to indicate if the classification boundaries for a certain supporting QE and the class boundaries for sensitive BQE are reported in accordance with/are relevant to the water category (for example: in the schema element supportingQEcode, several quality elements are the same for several water body categories and not specific for a certain one e.g. QE3-1-3 - Oxygenation conditions, QE3-1-6 - Nutrient conditions). These are assessed in terms of ecological status/potential, but it is not possible to indicate the relationship between classification boundaries for a certain supporting QE (for each WB category) and the class boundaries for sensitive BQE. Also, we suggest to add a schema element (column) to indicate whether the surface water body is a natural or an artificial or a heavily modified water body. This issue is important due to the fact that the relation between classification boundaries for a certain supporting QE (for each WB category) and the class boundaries for sensitive BQE depends whether the surface water body is a natural or an artificial or a heavily modified water body.
