Target description
Reducing the noise level of impulsive emissions in relation to the risks of disturbance and mortality of marine mammals

Maintain or reduce the level of continuous noise produced by anthropogenic activities, including maritime traffic
Maintain or re-establish populations of marine mammals in a good state of conservation
Ensuring the hosting potentials of the marine environment for birds: Power supply, rest, reproduction, deplacements

Target assessment description
target: Defined, concerted and adopted at the same time as the Maritime Basin Strategic Document (Document Stratégique de Façade) action plan.
target: 100% of projects authorised as of the adoption of the seafront strategy
target: Decrease (i.e. the spatial median of the interannual differences in maximum levels per façade is zero or negative)
The environmental objective is abandoned as it does not correspond to the definition of an environmental target for the second cycle. It is too general, it is not intended to reduce a clearly identified pressure and does not have an indicator enabling it to be assessed.
