Method used
The BAL-LV environmental objective to achieve or maintain GES is defined in accordance with the desired environmental status as defined by good environmental status descriptors. Consequently, the desired objectives for the marine environment were defined on the basis of qualitative characteristics in accordance with Commission Decision 2010/477 / EU and related indicators with quantitative values. The quantitative values of the indicators were determined using trend analysis and historical data. The Marine Environment Initial Assessment Report Technical Annex “Good Environmental Status Criteria, Indicators and Assessment for the Gulf of Riga and the Baltic Sea” provides an explanation of the methods for quantifying the quantified targets for the marine environment.

Description [Targets]
All commercially exploited fish and shellfish populations are biologically safe in terms of population distribution by age and size, indicating a good state of fish stocks.
The achievement of GES is achieved when fishing mortality does not exceed FMSY, which should be provided over a longer period of time.
The achievement of GES is achieved when fishing mortality does not exceed FMSY, which should be provided over a longer period of time.
The achievement of GES is achieved when fishing mortality does not exceed FMSY, which should be provided over a longer period of time.
The achievement of GES is achieved when fishing mortality does not exceed FMSY, which should be provided over a longer period of time.
GES is achieved if the spawning biomass of the stock is not lower than the maximum sustainable biomass biomass.
