Abstract: The programme ‘Rhine 2040’ of the International Commission for the Protection of the Rhine (ICPR) states that the ‘influx of micropollutants into waters from municipal waste water collection and treatment systems, industry and commerce as well as agriculture is to be reduced by at least 30% in comparison to the period 2016–2018’. In order to be able to numerically check the input reduction in influx at regular intervals, the ICPR developed an evaluation system for the reduction across the three areas. The assessment approach for agriculture was considered separately, as the input situation here differs significantly.
