| Q1e - Gaps and plans | GES Criteria: Benthic habitats are only partially covered; habitat mapping is ongoing and improvement of the monitoring program is planned for 2020, depending on the economical situation.
Litter and Noise monitoring are partially covered and under development and improvement is planned by 2018, depending on the economical situation. Monitoring of introduction of non-indigenous species has not yet started in ports, but work is ongoing to improve the situation. Plans to improve monitoring as regards the environmental targets are the same. |
