Target description |
Including MSFD related ecological objectives in MSP |
The nutrient load of agriculture and forestry and peat production is reduced. |
The nutrient load caused by aquaculture does not threaten the achievement of a good condition or an already achieved good condition and methods that reduce the load are introduced in aquaculture. |
The atmospheric nitrogen load caused by shipping is reduced. |
The load caused by waste water is reduced
|
The opportunities for managing internal nutrient stocks in the Baltic Sea will improve |
The load of phosphorus and nitrogen as well as solid matter and organic matter is reduced. This is a main target for the sub-targets "RAV". |

Target assessment description |
MSFD related objectives were included in the Maritime spatial plans and the target was achieved. While this target is still topical; MSP will not be updated during the 3rd MSFD cycle and this target can be ended. |
Nutrient loads from agriculture or forestry have not decreased in any MRU. However; the nutrient levels in crop fields has decreased alot; which may indicate reductions in future. |
Nutrient loads from fish farms have decreased 49-96% (P) and 32-93% (N) in the MRUs; but no decrease has taken place during the recent 6 years. Because fish farms have been named as a significant pressure in many coastal waterbodies; this target will be continued. |
Nitrogen emissions from ships decreased by >25% during 2000-2015; but in recent years there has been also some increases. |
Phosphorus and nitrogen loads from industry and WWTPs have decreased in all MRUs. No data is available from ships or scattered buildings. |
Pilots and assessments have been made of the applicability of different cleaning methods; but no clear solution was not yet found. The target is continued. |
HELCOM nutrient reduction results seem to indicate that the target is achieved; but there is large uncertainty in thresholds in FI. Therefore the target is continued. This is the main target and assessments are given in the sub-targets BAL-FI-RAV1-2030; BAL-FI-RAV2-2030; BAL-FI-RAV3-2030; BAL-FI-RAV4-2030; BAL-FI-RAV5-2030 |
