Marine Strategic Framework directive?
Common principles on the basis of which Member States have to draw up their own strategies
in cooperation with other Member States and third countries
To achieve Good Environmental Status of the seas
Aim:
• ensure the ecological sustainability of economic activities linked to the marine environment.
• to protect and restore Europe's marine ecosystems
Member States must firstly assess the ecological status of their waters and the impact of human activities. This assessment covers:
• an analysis of the essential characteristics of these waters (physical and chemical features, types of habitat, animal and plant populations, etc.);
• an analysis of the main impacts and pressures, • an economic and social analysis of the use of these waters
and the cost of the degradation of the marine environment.
On this basis, the Member States must define the
objectives and indicators to achieve good environmental
status.
