Q5f - Description of programme for GES assessment
There is a linkage between sub-programmes and descriptors provided in monitoring programme. However, the monitoring programme at present stage is incomplete due to lack of knowledge and correspondingly insufficient number of available indicators. At this time there is no or only very few indicators for descriptors 1, 4 and 6. Some ongoing work will result in HELCOM CORE set indicators for biodiversity that would be used for D1. However, indicator description is not yet finished. Therefore, it is not possible to assess how well adopted monitoring programme will contribute to assessment needs by use of developed indicators. Consequently, the need to amend monitoring programme is already foreseen.

Q6d - Description of programme for targets assessment
The monitoring programme is incomplete at the present stage due to lack of knowledge and severe limitation in indicator availability. The indicators are lacking as well as system/tool to aggregate the indicator-based assessments so that the overall progress towards targets could be assessed. Question 6a:The assessment system that agregates indicators to assess targets is not developped yet. The target values are elaborated for separate indicators. Information on that can be found in document elaborated for Initial assessment (www.lhei.lv/docs/2012/Juras_derektiva_C.pdf)

Q7b - Description of monitoring of activities
• The land-based pressure monitoring is addressed in the frame of Water framework directive. • Atmospheric depositions of nutrients and selected contaminants are addressed on regional level through cooperation in HELCOM frame. The actual calculations are performed by EMEP and presented for the whole regional in form of maps. • The ship traffic intensity as well as oil pollution by ships is addressed in form of regional cooperation in HELCOM. Oil spill maps are regularly updated and published on HELCOM web page covering whole region. • Fishing pressure is addressed in the frame of CFP. • The physical impact by port activities (dumping of dredged material, maintenance of port facilities) and potentially impact by construction of other infrastructure is and will be addressed locally in frame of Impact assessment procedure and following operator monitoring. • The marine litter will be addressed on regional scale. Currently HELCOM Marine litter action plan, that will include also suggestions on monitoring, is in elaboration stage. • Noise is not addressed at present.
