Target code
IE- D11T1-MRU001
IE- D11T1-a-MRU001
Target code
Target description
The spatial distribution, temporal extent, and levels of anthropogenic impulsive sound sources do not exceed levels that adversely affect populations of marine animals.
By 2025 ensure guidance to regulate both continuous and impulsive noise from anthropogenic activities is developed and implemented in order to maintain low levels of noise in Irelands marine environment.
Target purpose
  • DirectlyPreventFurtherPressure
