(3) Part B is amended as follows:
(a) in point 1, the first paragraph is replaced by the following:
For any given surface water body, applying the AA-EQS means that, for each representative monitoring point within the water body, the arithmetic mean of the concentrations measured at different times during the year does not exceed the standard.;
(b) in point 2, the first paragraph is replaced by the following:
For any given surface water body, applying the MAC-EQS means that the measured concentration at any representative monitoring point within the water body does not exceed the standard..
