| Q4f - Programme description | The Cabinet views this MSFD Monitoring Programme as a guiding component of the approach to ensure a good status of the marine environment in the Dutch part of the North Sea. The MSFD Monitoring Programme has been drawn up in accordance with Article 11 of the Directive. It details the actual monitoring of the 32 indicators outlined in the Marine Strategy Part 1. Based on the measurement data, the Monitoring Programme provides insight into:
1. The status of the indicators, thereby indicating the extent to which an environmental target is achieved (MSFD, Art. 10), in order to facilitate the ongoing assessment and periodic updating of the environmental targets (MSFD, Art. 5) in order to maintain or reach good environmental status.
2. The effectiveness of the programme of measures to be implemented under the MSFD.
Although the Monitoring Programme focuses primarily on the 32 indicators from the Marine Strategy Part 1, it also uses, for the purpose of interpreting the results, a number of supporting parameters that are included as standard during sampling (such as temperature, acidity, conductivity, salinity and dissolved oxygen). For the purpose of the next assessment of the environmental status in 2017-2018 and assessments thereafter, use will also be made of the information resulting from monitoring for research or from other statutory frameworks and policy areas. This includes information from national monitoring under the Bathing Water Directive in the area of microbial pathogens, shipping intensity monitoring (including fishing vessels) for the purpose of shipping traffic safety and bathymetric information obtained from hydrographic measurements. In determing spatial and temporal distribution of the monitoring, natural variation is taken into account as well as the possibilities to distinguish changes from natural variability. Important parameters for climate change and ocean acidification, such as temperature and pH are incorporated in the regular monitoring programmes. Economic data is collected by Statistics Netherlands (abbreviated as CBS in Dutch). CBS supplies the required data following receipt of a specified request for information. Thus, the requirements of MSFD Art. 8 are met and the indicative list of elements included in MSFD Appendix III is incorporated.
In this way, the MSFD Monitoring Programme provides a solid basis for updating the Marine Strategy during the second implementation cycle of the MSFD. This begins by updating the initial assessment (MSFD Art. 8) and describing the good environmental status (MSFD Art. 9), environmental targets and indicators (MSFD Art. 10) in 2018, and continues through to the adjustment of the existing programme of measures (Art. 13) in 2021.

| Q5f - Description of programme for GES assessment | a,b) In the art 9 and 10 report in 2012 the Netherlands has opted for a general description of GES under art 9 and a further elaboration of the targets and associated indicators under art 10. These targets and indicators cover all criteria from the Commission Decision as far as they are considered relevant for the Netherlands part of the North Sea. Therefore, they also cover the information requirement for the assessment of the descriptors and targets.
See paragraph 9.2.10 of the Marine Strategy II for a detailed description of how the targets and the information required to describe GES, via the elaboration of an information strategy, functional requirements and a monitoring strategy, are translated into the monitoring plan
c) The monitoring allows the quantitative assessment of both distance from GES and trends.
d) Variations in river discharge influence the input of contaminants. Continuous discharge measurements are therefore part of the monitoringprogramme on input of contaminants via rivers. The measurements in the monitoring programme cannot distinguish natural (background) concentrations of metals and other naturally occurring compounds such as PAHs from anthropogenic sources. This has to be taken into account in the assessment.
e) e) The MSFD Monitoring Plan will be updated annually in a digitally amended supplement based on the latest developments and insights in the area of indicator definitions and measurement methods, for example as a result from (sub) regional coordination within OSPAR. |

| Q5h - Plans to implement monitoring for GES assessment | In 2013, OSPAR has established common indicators for the input of the metals mercury, cadmium and lead via air and water, the concentrations of mercury, cadmium and lead, PCB’s, PAK’s and PBDE in biota and sediment, organotin in sediment and the incidence of imposex/intersex in sea snails. These indicators are based on the established OSPAR monitoring and assessment programmes CAMP, RID and CEMP and will contribute to the OSPAR Intermediate Assesment in 2017. The Netherlands uses the measurements in sediment only for determining trends, not for assessing environmental quality. As stated above, monitoring and assessment are already coordinated within the frameworks of the WFD and OSPAR. In the coming years, the Monitoring Plan is adjusted as necessary on the basis of the results of coordinating the various measurement methods under the WFD and OSPAR in terms of indicators (23) Concentrations of contaminants in water and (24) in biota. |

| Q4j - Description of spatial scope | OSPAR Contracting Parties provide geographical coordinates for their sampling. The programme covers mainly coastal, territorial and other marine waters. The extent of past OSPAR coordinated monitoring can be viewed from OSPAR CEMP assessment reports.
Monitoring is done mainly in areas where risks indicate that contaminants are likely to be present, based on local knowledge of the Contracting Parties. Usually in coastal waters where elevated concentrations have been found in previous surveys. The first selection of stations was originally done in industrialised estuaries and those adjacent coastal areas with a known history of contaminant input. |

Monitoring is done mainly in areas where risks indicate that contaminants are likely to be present, based on local knowledge of the Contracting Parties. Takes place in coastal waters where elevated concentrations have been found and TBT has been used in the past (harbours, dockyards, marinas). |
The OSPAR Riverine Inputs and Direct Discharges monitoring programme (RID) estimates the riverborne and direct inputs of some contaminants to the waters covered by the Convention. The main pressures covered are contaminants arising from agriculture, industry, households, wastewater treatment plants and industrial installations and aquaculture. |
The OSPAR Comprehensive Atmospheric Monitoring Programme (CAMP) consists of coastal atmospheric monitoring stations where monitoring data are estimated to represent marine atmospheric deposition conditions. |

Monitoring strategy description |
The principal purpose of the MSFD monitoring programme is to review the progress that has been made towards achieving good environmental status prescribed for each criterion in the Marine Strategy Part I (2018). This review is based on established indicators. The monitoring can also be used to evaluate the environmental targets defined for each descriptor. The environmental targets are operational in nature and are linked to specific actions and/or measures in the Marine Strategy Part 3. The effects of individual measures cannot generally be linked directly to environmental status or the criteria. Monitoring data can, however, indirectly give an indication of the effectiveness of measures.
The monitoring (methods, spatial and temporal coverage) aims to achieve sufficient statistical confidence in the assessment. The risk of not achieving GES or deterioration from GES is addressed in the Marine Strategy, Parts 1 and 3.
The European Commission requests that the electronic reports explain how the DPSIR cycle is monitored and to which part of the cycle the monitoring surveys are linked. The MSFD monitoring programme helps to generate better insight into the relationships between the use of the sea and the marine ecosystem. This can be accomplished by monitoring pressures and the underlying activities (D1C1: incidental bycatch, D2: non-indigenous species, D3C1: fish mortality, D5: eutrophication, D6C1/D6C4: physical loss of seabed/habitats and D6C2: fisheries intensity and sand extraction, D8 and D9: pollutants, D10: litter, D11: underwater noise), and by monitoring species and habitats (D1: biodiversity (with the exception of D1C1), D3C2: spawning stock biomass, D4: food web, D6C3/D6C5: habitats ) and hydrographical characteristics (D7). The numerous relationships between the various elements of the marine ecosystem are complex, and many are still not known. Consequently, it is often only possible to give an indication of the impact of specific activities on the marine ecosystem.
Experts generally derive DPSIR relationships from the monitoring of pressures/activities and of species and habitats (from the MSFD monitoring programme), in combination with data derived from permits and research programmes. However, some surveys have been established to measure pressures and their effects and/or to learn more about the effectiveness of measures.

Programme description |
The evaluation of the extent to which GES for D8C3 is achieved calls for registration of significant pollution incidents at sea, which also means that the spatial extent and total duration of pollution events must be reported every year. Monitoring is based on administrative registration and analysis.
Incidents at sea with oil and other oily substances have been monitored in the area covered by the Bonn Agreement since 1986 (www.bonnagreement.org). The Netherlands makes an active contribution to detect such incidents, using targeted aerial observation. Rijkswaterstaat has capacity available day and night for this monitoring, with roughly 1,200 flying hours annually and a day:night ratio of 75:25. Data from monitoring flights are entered in a Rijkswaterstaat database (VluVerO). Records of all incidents and details of how they were dealt with are registered.
The timing of the monitoring is geared to the European satellite monitoring by CleanSeaNet (CSN) of the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA). This satellite monitoring can give an initial indication of the presence of oil compounds on the sea’s surface. On the basis of Sentinel satellite images and monitoring of ship movements (VMS), CSN can pinpoint locations that might be polluted with oil. Planes can then be sent out to ascertain whether there actually is any pollution.
Since 2008, the Netherlands, together with neighbouring countries, reports the number of observed pollution events at sea for the Bonn Agreement (Bonn Agreement, 2016). These reports form the basis for the six-yearly assessment for the MSFD, which establishes whether the number of pollution events at sea is declining.
In the initial MSFD monitoring programme (2014), oil effects at sea were monitored by counting the number of dead or dying oiled common guillemots that were washed up. However, those data were not used for the OSPAR Intermediate Assessment (OSPAR, 2017). These monitoring results were mentioned in the last MSFD assessment, but the assessment was otherwise based on the monitoring for the Bonn Agreement. The registration and monitoring for the purposes of that agreement are therefore sufficient for the evaluation of D8C3. The monitoring survey of oiled marine birds is therefore no longer part of the MSFD monitoring programme. |
To achieve GES, the offshore waters must comply with the agreements made in OSPAR. The coastal waters must comply with the requirements of the WFD. The measurements for D8C1 are all part of Rijkswaterstaat’s monitoring programme (MWTL).
Coastal waters
The WFD applies in marine waters from the baseline to 12 nautical miles from the coast for priority substances and to 1 mile from the coast for the specific pollutants. The concentrations of the contaminants are measured in water or biota. Monitoring is carried out at a single representative location for each coastal WFD water body: coastal zone Zeeland, coastal zone Northern Delta, coastal zone of Holland, Wadden coastal zone, and Ems-Dollard.
Monitoring complies with the technical specifications of Directive 2009/90/EC (WFD method) and the Dutch protocol on monitoring and status assessment of WFD surface water bodies (Rijkswaterstaat, 2020).
Measurements in water: Monitoring is carried out once a quarter for specific pollutants and once a month for priority substances. For specific pollutants, see list of substances in the Decree on Quality Requirements and Monitoring of Water (BKMW); for priority substances see the list in the Priority Substances Directive, both available on www.helpdeskwater.nl.
Measurements in biota: the concentrations of all WFD priority substances with a standard for biota (see Guidance on Priority Substances on the Helpdesk Water website) are measured in flounder (Platichthys fesus). PAH are an exception; those measurements are taken in shellfish. The monitoring frequency of fish and shellfish is once every three years.
Offshore waters
In the offshore waters, i.e., the entire Dutch Continental Shelf from 1 or 12 nautical miles from the coast, respectively, the concentrations of the contaminants relevant for the marine environment are measured in the most suitable compartment: sediment or biota, or both. For the method of sampling and analysis, including information about quality assurance/quality control, see the OSPAR Guidelines (2011, 2012, 2018).
Monitoring covers the following common indicators (OSPAR):
• concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in biota and sediment: phenanthrene, anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene, benzo[a]anthracene, chrysene, benzo[a]pyrene, benzo[g,h,i]perylene, indeno[123-c,d]pyrene
• concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in biota and sediment: congeners 28, 52, 101, 118, 138, 153 and 180
• concentrations of polybrominated diphe |

PAH are an exception; those measurements are taken in shellfish. The monitoring frequency of fish and shellfish is once every three years.
Offshore waters
In the offshore waters, i.e., the entire Dutch Continental Shelf from 1 or 12 nautical miles from the coast, respectively, the concentrations of the contaminants relevant for the marine environment are measured in the most suitable compartment: sediment or biota, or both. For the method of sampling and analysis, including information about quality assurance/quality control, see the OSPAR Guidelines (2011, 2012, 2018).
Monitoring covers the following common indicators (OSPAR):
• concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in biota and sediment: phenanthrene, anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene, benzo[a]anthracene, chrysene, benzo[a]pyrene, benzo[g,h,i]perylene, indeno[123-c,d]pyrene
• concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in biota and sediment: congeners 28, 52, 101, 118, 138, 153 and 180
• concentrations of polybrominated diphe |
To achieve GES, the offshore waters must comply with the agreements made in OSPAR. The coastal waters must comply with the requirements of the WFD. The measurements for D8C1 are all part of Rijkswaterstaat’s monitoring programme (MWTL).
Coastal waters
The WFD applies in marine waters from the baseline to 12 nautical miles from the coast for priority substances and to 1 mile from the coast for the specific pollutants. The concentrations of the contaminants are measured in water or biota. Monitoring is carried out at a single representative location for each coastal WFD water body: coastal zone Zeeland, coastal zone Northern Delta, coastal zone of Holland, Wadden coastal zone, and Ems-Dollard.
Monitoring complies with the technical specifications of Directive 2009/90/EC (WFD method) and the Dutch protocol on monitoring and status assessment of WFD surface water bodies (Rijkswaterstaat, 2020).
Measurements in water: Monitoring is carried out once a quarter for specific pollutants and once a month for priority substances. For specific pollutants, see list of substances in the Decree on Quality Requirements and Monitoring of Water (BKMW); for priority substances see the list in the Priority Substances Directive, both available on www.helpdeskwater.nl.

The indicator for the assessment of criterion D8C2 is imposex in marine snails. To achieve GES, the trend must be downward compared with 2012. Measuring imposex in marine snails is a suitable method of measuring the effect of contamination with tributyltin (TBT), also known as organotin. The indicator is linked to the monitoring and assessment described in the OSPAR-CEMP (Coordinated Environmental Monitoring Programme). For the technical specifications of the method, see OSPAR JAMP Guidelines (2017).
In the Netherlands, the monitoring falls under Rijkswaterstaat’s monitoring programme (MWTL). The sampling is combined with shellfish research that is carried out for the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality between March and July every three years.
To determine the biological effects, snails are collected in the following areas along the Dutch coast: eastern Wadden Sea coastal zone, western Wadden Sea coastal zone, northern coastal zone of Holland, central coastal zone of Holland, southern coastal zone of Holland, Haringvliet coastal zone, Grevelingen coastal zone, Eastern Scheldt coastal zone and Western Scheldt coastal zone.
In accordance with the CEMP, to establish the effects of TBT on snails, the extent of imposex is determined in the most representative species, such as the dog whelk (Nucella lapillus) and the netted dog whelk (Nassarius reticulatus). The TBT concentration in the snails is also measured.
Given the steady and consistent decline in the level of imposex, the measurement frequency can be reduced. Instead of every year, monitoring will be carried out every three years, which is still in accordance with the OSPAR requirement. The monitoring locations and the methodology of the imposex monitoring survey remain unchanged. |
