in Section 1.2.2, the table ‘Physico-chemical quality elements’ is replaced by the following: ‘General physico-chemical quality elements Element | High status | Good status | Moderate status General conditions | The values of the general physico-chemical elements correspond totally or nearly totally to undisturbed conditions. Nutrient concentrations remain within the range normally associated with undisturbed conditions. Levels of salinity, pH, oxygen balance, acid neutralising capacity, transparency and temperature do not show signs of anthropogenic disturbance and remain within the ranges normally associated with undisturbed conditions. | Temperature, oxygen balance, pH, acid neutralising capacity, transparency and salinity do not reach levels outside the ranges established so as to ensure the functioning of the ecosystem and the achievement of the values specified above for the biological quality elements. Nutrient concentrations do not exceed the levels established so as to ensure the functioning of the ecosystem and the achievement of the values specified above for the biological quality elements. | Conditions consistent with the achievement of the values specified above for the biological quality elements.’;
