Measure description
Contains several individual measures for environmentally sustainable restocking mussel fisheries and to ensure the development of eu and sublitoral mussel beds and communities, e.g. through use-free zones. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiche: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
Das Ziel dieser Maßnahme ist eine nachhaltige und schonende Nutzung nicht lebender Ressourcen. Die Maßnahme trägt damit zur Erreichung von gemeinsamen Zielen von Küstenschutz und Naturschutz bei, so dass Maßnahmen des Küstenschutzes nicht zu einem zusätzlichen Sedimentdefizit im Wattenmeer mit negativen Konsequenzen für Küsten- und Naturschutz führen. Dazu gehören die Minimierung der räumlichen und zeitlichen Beeinträchtigungen während und nach der Entnahme sowie technische Verfahren zur Minimierung von Auswirkungen. Der Abbau von Sand und Kies erfolgt in der Nordsee und insbesondere in den Nationalparken ausschließlich für Maßnahmen des Küstenschutzes inklusive der Versorgung der Inseln und Halligen mit Sand auf der Basis von Genehmigungen. Ergänzende Informationen ergeben sich aus dem Maßnahmenkennblatt: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file=files/meeresschutz/berichte/art13-massnahmen/zyklus22/MSRL_Art13_Anlage1_Massnahmenkennblaetter_2022.pdf // Zu Indikatoren: Die Indikatoren zu UZN/UZO4.5 und 4.6 befinden sich in Entwicklung.
The measure provides for the restoration of seagrass populations and the restoration and conservation of these natural habitats in the transitional and coastal waters as a contribution to denitrification. A pilot project in the field of outdoor Ems is initially planned. As a first step, a dynamic model system will be developed to allow the development of seagrass beds to be taken into account in management decisions in the future. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
Under the Start Conditional Regulation (AnlBV), tankers and gas tankers of certain sizes are already obliged to navigate the German Bight Western Approach off the German coast at a greater depth. In order to avoid nearshore accidents such as those of the ‘MSC ZOE’, this measure should consider the adaptation of shipping route regulations internationally. The measure aims at an initiative for a legal act (order of a legal provision) to enforce the usage requirement for other specific vessels (large container ships). Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
Voraussetzung für die Wiederansiedlung der Art ist das Vorkommen von geeignetem Siedlungssubstrat in Flächen ohne physikalische Störungen. Die Maßnahme umfasst die Durchführung eines Forschungsvorhabens, in dessen Rahmen potenziell geeignete Wiederansiedlungsflächen (z.B. ehemalige Riffe) im Küstenmeer für ein Pilotprojekt ausgewiesen werden sollen. In diesen Bereichen sind störungsfreie bzw. störungsarme Zonen einzurichten. Ergänzende Informationen ergeben sich aus den Maßnahmenkennblättern: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file=files/meeresschutz/berichte/art13-massnahmen/zyklus22/MSRL_Art13_Anlage1_Massnahmenkennblaetter_2022.pdf // Zu CEA, CBA: Es wurde 2021 eine sozioökonomische Voreinschätzung durchgeführt.

Die Fähigkeit der Watten und Vorländer, in der gleichen Geschwindigkeit mit dem Anstieg des Meeresspiegels mitzuwachsen, ist kritisch zu hinterfragen. In einer ersten Phase der geplanten Strategie sollen Handlungsoptionen zur Erhaltung eines ausgeglichenen Sedimenthaushalts auch durch Ausnutzung natürlicher Transport- und Sortierungsprozesse mit – in der Summe positiven – ökologischen Auswirkungen ermittelt werden. Dazu müssen aufbauend auf den vielen vorhandenen qualitativ beschreibenden Grundlagendaten Instrumente zur Einschätzung der maßgebenden Prozesse entwickelt werden. Ergänzende Informationen ergeben sich aus den Maßnahmenkennblättern: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file=files/meeresschutz/berichte/art13-massnahmen/zyklus22/MSRL_Art13_Anlage1_Massnahmenkennblaetter_2022.pdf // Zu CEA,CBA: Es wurde 2021 eine sozioökonomische Voreinschätzung durchgeführt.

Across all objectives, the North-East Atlantic Environmental Strategy, updated to implement the OSPAR Convention, contributes to the achievement of the objectives of the MSFD in the sense of a Category 1b measure, while continuing existing OSPAR measures. The inclusion of regional measures, plans and programmes in the national programme of measures does not alter their legal nature. The effectiveness of the measure is measured through the MSFD environmental indicators. Specific indicators may exist within the framework of the policy implementing the action and may be used to assess effectiveness. //Indicators: The actions of NEAES are linked to the OSPAR indicator system, which captures the impact of the measures (https://www.ospar.org/work-areas/cross-cutting-issues/ospar-common-indicators). The indicator system is constantly evolving.
The objective of the measure is to ensure adequate protection of endangered species/biotope types in the existing protected area by 1. Consider whether legislation needs to be adapted if necessary and, if necessary, to take account of new legislation for protected areas if species/biotope types are classified as being at risk in accordance with criterion 2 listed in the identification sheet and have not been sufficiently taken into account in them; 2. Ensure that these species/biotope types are properly taken into account and that the procedures for authorising protected areas are taken into account. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiche: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
Design and implement a programme (possibly with the help of EU funds) to promote sustainable ecosystem-friendly fisheries, with the aim of further embedding the issue in public awareness and informing about it. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiche: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
The action has three components: 1. Fisheries management measures in Natura 2000 areas in the North Sea and Baltic Sea; 2. The common fisheries policy; 3. Promote the development and use of ecosystem-friendly and sustainable fishing gear. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiche: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
The measure consists of (1) the discharge and application of biological limit values for pressures of durc anthropogenic, impulsive underwater sealing to prevent negative effects on relevant species; The objective of understanding and, where necessary, regulating, on the basis of scientific evidence, anthropogenic noise levels in the sea in order to effectively protect relevant species. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
The action aims at establishing a register and mandatory reporting obligations covering all relevant sources of impulsive and prolonged sound inputs. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
The measure covers the design and construction of a permanent measurement network for long-term underwater sound measurement and the derivation of international noise mapping standards, including the provision of appropriate models for the singular and cumulative assessment of regional noise pollution in German marine areas. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
The action will develop comprehensive noise mitigation measures to reduce anthropogenic impairments caused by impulse noise on relevant marine species for the North Sea and Baltic Sea and consider their type of conversion as a measure. As regards permanent sounds, the action will initially consist of a more intensive research phase to fill knowledge gaps. The aim is to reduce anthropogenic marine noise pollution based on further scientific evidence and to effectively protect relevant species. The measure relates to the values under development below IP6-01 as a basis for deriving concrete measures to reduce impulse and continuous sound. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
A coordinated tool should be established and permanently maintained to ensure the availability of information and analysis for MSFD, WFD and permit-granting processes. For this purpose, a contract is planned to be awarded in 2022. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
The action aims at developing criteria, framework conditions and practices based on Best Available Techniques and Best Environmental Practice (BAT/BEP), which serve as a guide for future-oriented environmentally friendly mariculture and a guide to licensing practices. In addition, in order to support the implementation of these guidelines and the development and implementation of BAT/BEP, the development of environmentally friendly and innovative methods in mariculture will be encouraged. The implementation of the measures provides for dialogue at regional level (HELCOM/OSPAR) and between environmental and aquaculture experts. The development of indicators is part of the operationalisation of the action. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
The measure provides, in several stages, for the development and establishment of site- and conservation-specific measures necessary to create effective withdrawal and rest areas for species and habitats. To this end, inter alia, needs assessments for withdrawal and rest rooms, analyses of the spatial location of protection needs in relation to existing spatial protection measures and legal checks to identify appropriate implementation tools, as well as steps for political decision, implementation and monitoring of implementation, are planned and carried out. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
Geogene und biogene Riffe sollen dort wiederhergestellt werden, wo diese natürlicherweise vorkamen bzw. vorkommen und durch menschliche Aktivitäten verschwunden oder stark degeneriert sind. Dabei sind fachliche Anforderungen an die Fläche und an die Ausgestaltung der Riffstrukturen u.a. hinsichtlich des Materials zu beachten. Ergänzende Informationen ergeben sich aus den Maßnahmenkennblättern: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file=files/meeresschutz/berichte/art13-massnahmen/zyklus22/MSRL_Art13_Anlage1_Massnahmenkennblaetter_2022.pdf // Zu Indikatoren: Vorschläge für mögliche Indikatoren liegen vor.

There is an analysis and follow-up of recommendations for action from a marine protection perspective, where the existing regulatory framework for mining projects is an obstacle to the achievement of the MSFD objectives or how it should better take into account the MSFD requirements in order to ensure sustainable and MSFD-compliant use of German coastal and marine waters. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiches: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
The action aims at actively accompanying and supporting IMO activities in reporting, locating and, where appropriate, retrieving containers overboard. An investigation of national and international accidents with significant container losses is planned. The lessons learned will feed into proposals for individual organisational and technical arrangements. If necessary, the action may seek external expertise in order to provide an independent scientific basis for any regulatory proposals. These proposals are intended to feed into the national positioning, which in turn will form part of the EU coordination for IMO discussions. Additional information can be obtained from the measure fiche: https://www.meeresschutz.info/berichte-art13.html?file
Marine protected areas in accordance with the Habitats Directive and VGL have been designated in the EEZ. The respective protected areas regulate uses. Some of the actions foreseen for implementation in the FRMPs have started.
Marine protected areas in accordance with the Habitats Directive and VGL have been designated in coastal waters. The respective Protected Area Regulations regulate uses.
The measure on species and biotope protection was implemented in 2017 by the BNatSchG. In particular, a prohibition on deterioration, an obligation to carry out an environmental and Habitats Directive impact assessment, and a prohibition on killing and injury and the prohibition of serious disturbance apply to particularly protected species.
The measure relates to new or recast agreements that go beyond measure M927. Additional measures include, for example, the designation of shellfish farming districts and management requirements in the SH-Wadden Sea National Park for shellfish farming compatible with nature and national parks, including areas which are kept free of use; Catch limits for pole-and-line and recreational fisheries and temporary closure periods for fish stocks recovery.
The measure relates to new or recast agreements that go beyond measure M915. Marine protected areas, including nature conservation areas, Natura 2000 areas and national parks, have already been designated in the coastal waters of the German North Sea and the Baltic Sea and protected by protective regulations. The prohibitions and bids set out therein are complemented by voluntary agreements with certain user groups (fisheries, tourism) in order to mitigate adverse effects (by-catch, disturbance) in particular during sensitive periods.
The actions foreseen in the FRMPs have partially started. Some of the nature reserves of the EEZs provide for fishing measures with restrictions on bottom-contacting fishing and static net fishing in accordance with a recommendation of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). A joint recommendation has been made by BALTFISH, the Baltic Regional Fisheries Management Organisation, to protect the particularly vulnerable population of harbour porpoises in the Central Baltic Sea. Implementation is still pending. As regards adverse impacts of fishing on food webs and habitats through by-catch, discarding and bottom towed gear in coastal waters, the Protected Area Regulations and Land Fishing Regulations contain partial fishing rules. Voluntary agreements for the protection of species and habitats in coastal waters complement these rules. The effectiveness of the measure is measured through the MSFD environmental indicators. Specific indicators may exist within the framework of the policy implementing the action and may be used to assess effectiveness. //Indicators: The effectiveness of the measure is measured through the MSFD environmental indicators. Specific indicators may exist within the framework of the policy implementing the action and may be used to assess effectiveness.
Assessment of the approval requirement, including appropriate assessment in accordance with relevant technical legislation, restrictions, requirements and, where applicable, scope of compensation www.bsh.de/de/Meeresnutzung/Wirtschaft/Windparks/index.jsp www.bsh.de/de/Meeresnutzung/Wirtschaft/Rohrleitungen/
The regional planning plans of the Federal Government and the Länder exist and are regularly updated.
National legal transposition takes place in accordance with the implementation deadlines of the CFP: Landing obligation is fully implemented, multi-annual plans have been implemented; sustainable management of all stocks not yet achieved, but progress has been made. There are still shortcomings in achieving environmental objectives 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4, including by-catch reduction, monitoring and control of fisheries management measures and fisheries measures to protect endangered species and habitats. This will be done by the new measure UZ4-02 in the programme of measures at 2. Cycle continued.
State Fisheries Acts and Coastal Fishing Regulations of the Coastal Federal States contain restrictions on the use of certain fishing gears, fishing protected areas, closed seasons and fishing bans for fish species. Regulations on protected areas already contain, inter alia, rules for pole-and-line fishing and areas free of use.
Legal requirements for impact assessments of uses.
Spatial planning tool to systematically coordinate usage claims in the coastal zone and its development. ICZM is guided by sustainability criteria and considers the sea and land side of coastal areas as a functional unit. The effectiveness of the measure is measured through the MSFD environmental indicators. Specific indicators may exist within the framework of the policy implementing the action and may be used to assess effectiveness. //Indicators: The effectiveness of the measure is measured through the MSFD environmental indicators.

Progress description
Die Maßnahme ist in Schleswig-Holstein abgeschlossen. In Niedersachsen läuft die Konzepterstellung.
The amendment to Section 57 of the BNatSchG extended the power to adopt ordinances on protected areas and thus created the basis for the inclusion of ecosystem-determining species and biotope types in the EEZ’s protected area regulations. A second step, which has already begun, will examine which species and biotope types should be included in the protected area schemes. In a final third step, species and biotope types are included in the Protected Area Regulations. This measure has already been implemented in the national parks of coastal waters. Full transposition is still pending in other protected areas and in the protected areas of the EEZ.
Verschiedene Einzelaktivitäten in den Ländern sind in Zusammenarbeit mit den Nationalparkverwaltungen abgeschlossen. Sie reichen von der Schulung von Natur- und Landschaftsführern über ein Kinder- und Jugendbuch zur nachhaltigen Fischerei bis hin zu Ausstellungsschwerpunkten zur nachhaltigen Fischerei und Informationsangebote für die Öffentlichkeit und Schulklassen. Die neue Dachmarke in Schleswig-Holstein „WIR Fischen.SH“ soll auch der Verbreitung von Informationen zur nachhaltigen Fischerei dienen. Weitere Aktivitäten sind gestartet, ihr Abschluss ist bis 2023 geplant. Es kommen fortlaufend neue Aktivitäten hinzu - derzeit sind Aktivitäten bis 2027 geplant.
Komponente 1 (Fischereimaßnahmen in Natura-2000 Gebieten in Nord- und Ostsee): Für die Nordsee AWZ abgeschlossen mit der Annahme der gemeinsamen Empfehlung und Vorlage an die EU-Kommission. Die EU-KOM hat einen entsprechenden Entwurf eines delegierten Rechtsakts vorgelegt mit dessen in Kraft in 2022 zu rechnen ist. Für die Ostsee AWZ wird die Annahme der gemeinsamen Empfehlung und Vorlage an die EU-Kommission“ spätestens 2023 erfolgen. Frühestens 2023 kann mit dem Inkrafttreten eines EU delegierten Rechtsakts und der vollständigen Umsetzung der Komponente für die Ostsee gerechnet werden. Fischereimanagementmaßnahmen in Natura-2000-Gebieten im Küstenmeer werden durch die jeweiligen Länder vorbereitet und umgesetzt. Mit einer Umsetzung ist bis 2027 zu rechnen. Komponente 2 (Nationale Umsetzung der Gemeinsame Fischereipolitik): Die nationale, rechtliche Umsetzung erfolgt entsprechend der Umsetzungsfristen der GFP: Die Anlandepflicht ist vollständig umgesetzt, die Umsetzung der Mehrjahrespläne ist abgeschlossen; die nachhaltige Bewirtschaftung aller Bestände ist noch nicht erreicht, aber Fortschritte erzielt. Weiterhin bestehen noch Defizite bzgl. der Erreichung der Umweltziele 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 und 4.4., u.a. bei der Beifangreduzierung, der Überwachung- und Kontrolle von Fischereimanagementmaßnahmen und Fischereimaßnahmen zum Schutz von gefährdeten Arten und Lebensräumen. Dies wird durch die Komponente 2 der neuen Maßnahme UZ4-02 in Maßnahmenprogramm zum 2. Zyklus fortgeführt. Komponente 3 (Förderung, Entwicklung und Verwendung von ökosystemgerechten und zukunftsfähigen Fanggeräten): Neue schonende Fangmethoden, um Beifänge von Schweinswalen und Seevögeln zu reduzieren, werden derzeit erprobt oder wurden bereits in die Fischerei eingeführt. Weitere Projekte wurden begonnen um die vielversprechenden Ansätze auch bis hin zur Wettbewerbsfähigkeit zu entwickeln.
Die Errichtung eines Schallregisters war für 2016 geplant und ist fristgerecht erfolgt. Seither befindet sich das Register für die Schallquellen Rammschall, Explosionsschall, und Schall aus militärischen Aktivitäten im operativen Betrieb. Seit 2018 werden stetig Erweiterungen vorgenommen, um weitere Schallquellen zu erschließen. Seit 2019 kommen weitere Bundes- und Landesbehörden der Meldepflicht an das nationale Schallregister nach. Der Schwerpunkt der Entwicklung bis 2024 wird auf dei Umsetzung der Anforderungen im Hinblick auf Dauerschalleinträge liegen. Informationen und Daten aus dem nationalen Schallregister sind seit 2020 unter dem Link https://marinears.bsh.de öffentlich zugänglich. Die aktualisierte Zeitlinie erfasst die laufenden und geplanten Erweiterungen des Schallregisters.
Es laufen vorbereitende Forschungsarbeiten zu Auswirkungen von Impulsschall durch Bau und Betrieb von Offshore-Windenergieanlagen sowie von Vergrämern („seal scarer“) auf marine Säugetiere.
Reason description
Verzögerte Bewilligung EMFF-Mittel, technische Schwierigkeiten Bildflüge, Beeinträchtigung Feldarbeiten durch COVID-19-Pandemie.
Derzeit finden auf EU-Ebene Vorarbeiten statt. In EU-Projekten (JOMOPANS/JONAS) werden Vorschläge erarbeitet, um diese Arbeiten zu unterstützen. Hierbei werden Konzepte für Belastungsindikatoren entwickelt. Basierend darauf werden dann Risiko- und Wirkindikatoren erarbeitet, welche die biologische Relevanz abbilden sollen. Hierbei müssen Frequenz, Ort und zeitabhängige Richtwerte bzw. Schwellenwerte für die Schlüsselarten (z.B. Schweinswal) entwickelt werden.
Es fehlen noch standardisierte Messverfahren und Modelle. Eine nationale sowie regionale Abstimmung läuft derzeit.
Bisherige Verzögerung ergab sich durch fehlende personelle Kapazität (Financing), die durch eine Ausschreibung der Konzeptentwicklung 2021 kompensiert wurde.
