Target description |
Target: All developments that may give rise to significant permanent changes in the hydrological regime of currents, waves, or sediments must comply with existing regulatory regimes and guidance should be followed to ensure that regulatory assessments are undertaken in a way that ensures the full consideration of any potential impacts, including cumulative effects at the most appropriate spatial scales to ensure that GES is not compromised.
Notes:
The targets for MSFD Cycle 2 have been aligned with the criteria outlined in the Commission Decision 2017/848. Where targets from MSFD Cycle 1 do not align with the Criteria these have been discontinued and have been reported as ‘Target no longer needed’.
There was no Target timescale date specified in MSFD Cycle 1 for this target.
The Timescale date 205012 has been entered to allow the Schema be submitted and processed without errors. Under no circumstances should this date be attributed to the now abandoned target. |
The spatial extent and distribution of permanent alteration of hydrographical conditions to the seabed and water column, is at a level that ensures that the structure and functions of the ecosystems are safeguarded and that benthic ecosystems, in particular, are not adversely affected |
