Target description
Limit damage to sensitive links in the trophic chain in order to restore the resource.
Limit damage to sensitive links in the trophic chain in order to restore the resource.
Maintain a zero level of sampling on oceanic micro-nekton (especially Krill, and myctophidae or lantern fish...)
Maintaining or restoring biodiversity and the functioning of coastal fund ecosystems (medio, infra and circalittoral)
Maintaining a good etat of conservation of the deep habitats of the submarine canyons
Maintaining the fishery resources of the Gulf of Lion and coastal areas
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
Reduce contributions to the sea of chemical contaminants from the water catchment areas as described in the initial assessment
Reducing the input and presence of waste in marine waters (coastal, macro-waste, micro particles)
Reduce the risk of introduction and spread of invasive non-native species

Target assessment description
target: B2026 in the medium greater than or equal to 0.33 of the historical maximum biomass (or CFP Common Fisheries Policy reference)
target: Compliance with the MSY under the CFP
Target: 0 N.B.: depending on the available knowledge on an acceptable level of exploitation for ecosystems, the target may be revised in 2024.
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.
