Indicator under development: area of N2000 and/or MSFD protected areas. Designate areas under HD/BD (N2000) and/or MSFD, implement NSA area agreements. Progress D1T3 (2018): Management plans have been developed and are following their own trajectory. Some new environmental objectives incorporate agreements from management plans, while others are supplementary and also contribute to achieving the N2000 conservation objectives.

Indicator under development: Number of conservation targets realised. The year in which this environmental objective is expected to be achieved has not yet been determined. Therefore, '999912' is reported for 'Timescale', Implementation based on rules on Natura2000 areas in the Dutch Environment and Planning Act International measures: all measures (existing or planned) listed in MS1 make a contribution. Implementation of the nature restoration regulation through the implementation of the Nature Plan Possible additional measures based on the evaluation of management plans or species protection plans. Progress D1T2 (2018): restoring tranquility remains a priority. This environmental objective is part of environmental objective 1.2 concerning achieving conservation objectives. Progress D1T3 (2018): Management plans have been developed and are following their own trajectory. Some new environmental objectives incorporate agreements from management plans, while others are supplementary and also contribute to achieving the N2000 conservation objectives.

Indicator under development: Number of habitat types and species declining/not declining. The year in which this environmental objective is expected to be achieved has not yet been determined. Therefore, '999912' is reported for 'Timescale'. Implementation based on rules on Natura2000 areas in the Dutch Environment and Planning Act. International measures: all measures (existing or planned) listed in MS1 make a contribution. Possible additional measures based on the evaluation of management plans or species protection plans.

Fisheries measures (Art. 11 CFP) in line with North Sea agreement (NSA 4.38). Draw up assessment framework for other activities. Progress D6T1 (2018): At least 10 percent of the seabed of the Dutch North Sea will be completely free from all controllable human activities that impact the seabed by 2030.

Indicators under development: Area where fisheries measures are in force, in combination with indicator D6C2. (ANS-NL-D6C1-D6C4 verlies per habitat and physical-disturb-fisheries-bottom-contact-qsr23-ospar) Fisheries measures (Art. 11 CFP) as per North Sea agreement (4.38).

The year in which this environmental objective is expected to be achieved has not yet been determined. Therefore, '999912' is reported for 'Timescale'. Fisheries measures (Art. 11 CFP) as per North Sea agreement (4.38).

The year in which this environmental objective is expected to be achieved has not yet been determined. Therefore, '999912' is reported for 'Timescale'. Measures that restrict fishing (Art. 11 CFP) in accordance with North Sea agreement (4.38). Draw up consideration framework for other activities in MSFD areas (2028) Additional measures if possible and appropriate through North Sea Nature Enhancement Programme (NNEP) (2030). Progress D1T3 (2018): Management plans have been developed and are following their own trajectory. Some new environmental objectives incorporate agreements from management plans, while others are supplementary and also contribute to achieving the N2000 conservation objectives.

The year in which this environmental objective is expected to be achieved has not yet been determined. Therefore, '999912' is reported for 'Timescale'. Threshold is currently met, so goal is to maintain GES.

Indicator under development: area of biogenic reefs. The year in which this environmental objective is expected to be achieved has not yet been determined. Therefore, '999912' is reported for 'Timescale'. Recovery measures in ecological valuable areas: establish oyster recovery areas in Friese Front c.f. article 4.43 North Sea agreement (2025). North Sea Nature Enhancement Programme (NN) (2030) Nature-inclusive construction of wind farms serving flat oyster (ongoing). Fisheries measures (Art. 11 CFP) cf. article 4.35 North Sea agreement for the purpose of restoring sandbox worm reefs (2030). Progress D6T5 (2018): This environmental objective was addressed within the framework of The Rich North Sea and is being continued in the North Sea Nature Enhancement Program.

Important steps have been achieved in collaboration with OSPAR. This environmental goal is being removed: it focuses on the development of an assessment under Article 8, which does not fit into the system of environmental goals (Article 10).
