Monitoring strategy description
The goal of the Strategy is to provide information for the assessments of the status of marine waters with regard to the populations of 5 species groups of birds (grazing, wading, surface-feeding, pelagic-feeding and benthic-feeding birds) in wintering (all encountered species) and breeding seasons in compliance with Commission Directive (EU) 2017/845 of 17 May 2017 and criteria laid down in Commission Decision (EU) 2017/848 of 17 May 2017. Strategy takes into consideration regional cooperation through established HELCOM monitoring guidelines. The strategy also reflects the human activities, pressures and impacts by monitoring the health status of white-tailed eagle as well as monitoring of by-catch. Information gathered within the strategy will not only provide information on the status of marine waters but also help to identify measures to be implemented and assess progress of those already implemented to achieve good environmental status of marine waters, in accordance with the initial assessment of the status of marine waters and the set of characteristics for the good environmental status of marine waters.

Gaps and plans
Currently, as part of bird monitoring, descriptor D1C2 - abundance is possible to evaluate. As part of the work of the JWGBIRD working group of experts from HELCOM, OSPAR, and ICES, methodologies for assessing descriptors: D1C3 and D1C5 are being developed. After the final preparation and recommendations, the process of their implementation in Poland will start. However, the date is not known.

Programme description
The monitoring of incidental catches of cetaceans results from the implementation of EU regulations - the Regulation (EU) 2019/1241 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2019 on the conservation of fisheries resources and the protection of marine ecosystems through technical measures, amending Council Regulations (EC) No 1967/2006, (EC) No 1224/2009 and Regulations (EU) No 1380/2013, (EU) 2016/1139, (EU) 2018/973, (EU) 2019/472 and (EU) 2019/1022 of the European Parliament and of the Council, and repealing Council Regulations (EC) No 894/97, (EC) No 850/98, (EC) No 2549/2000, (EC) No 254/2002, (EC) No 812/2004 and (EC) No 2187/2005, hereinafter reffered to as “Regulation 2019/1241”. Until 2019, the monitoring of by-catch was carried out from the fishing vessels in Polish Marine Areas in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 812/2004 of 26.4.2004 laying down measures concerning incidental catches of cetaceans in fisheries and amending Regulation (EC) No 88/98 (OJ L 150, 30.04.2004, p.12 as amended), hereinafter reffered to as “Regulation 812/2004”. Monitoring of incidental catches has been carried out in Poland since 2006. The work will be carried out by the MIR-PIB under the National Programme for Collection of Fisheries Data (NPCFD). This programme will consist a continuation of the Monitoring Programme of Incidental Catches of Cetaceans performed since 2015 as part of the National Programme for Collection of Fisheries Data. By 2019, incidental catches of birds, fish and cetaceans based on data from NPCFD were reported to ICES by the Minister competent for fisheries. Regulation (EU) 2019/1241 unlike Regulation (EU) 812/2004, does not specify the form and procedure of reporting on incidental catches to the European Commission. Reporting obligation will lie with scientific institutes and will take place under the so-called ICES Data calls in accordance with the Regulation (EU) 2017/1004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 May 2017 on the establishment of a Union framework for the collection, management and use of data in the fisheries sector and support for scientific advice regarding the common fisheries policy and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 199/2008 (OJ L 157, 20.6.2017, p. 1) that specifies the acces to multiannual progamms data. According to the abovementioned regulation since 2020 the entity authorized to report on accidental catches should be the entity conducting fisheries monitoring programmes within
Monitoring is carried out to meet the requirements of the Birds Directive as well as the Commission Directive (EU) 2017/845 of 17 May 2017 and criteria laid down in Commission Decision (EU) 2017/848 of 17 May 2017 for Descriptor D1.

Monitoring details
The catching of species listed in Council Directive 92/43/EEC of 21 May 1992 on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora (Habitats Directive) and Directive 2009/147/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 November 2009 on the conservation of wild birds (Birds Directive) is prohibited. Whereas species to be monitored under incidental by-catch are listed in table 1D of the Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/1251 of 12 July 2016 adopting a multiannual Union programme for the collection, management and use of data in the fisheries and aquaculture sectors for the period 2017-2019 and Commission Delegated Decision (EU) 2019/910 of 13 March 2019 establishing the multiannual Union programme for the collection and management of biological, environmental, technical and socioeconomic data in the fisheries and aquaculture sectors (OJ L 145, 4.6.2019, p. 27) prolonging the Commision Decision of 2016 and beeing in force for the period 2020-2021. The minimum conservation reference sizes for the Baltic Sea fish species are set out in Annex VIII to the Regulation 2019/1241. In accordance with Annex XIII to the Regulation 2019/1241, defined mitigation measures minimizing incidental catches of protected species will be continued as for the repealed Regulation 812/2004. Other mitigation measures not listed in Annex XIII to the current Regulation shall be agreed at the regional level as a part of the regionalization process established on the basis of Common Fisheries Policy. Part A of the Annex applies to cetaceans, while part B to birds. In accordance with Regulation 2019/1241 monitoring of cetacean by-catch shall be established for fishing vessels with an overall length of 15 m or more fishing with bottom-set gillnets (GNS) and pelagic trawls (OTM). Observations on board of fishing vessels will be carried out by appropriately trained MIR-PIB staff that is familiar with the methodology for monitoring of incidental catches of cetaceans. Observations of catches from midwater pair trawls, bottom trawls and hooks are not obligatory according to Regulation 2019/1241 but are included in the Multiannual Programme for Collection of Fisheries Data (DCF Poland).
1) Offshore Wintering Marine Birds Survey. Offshore survey dedicated to wintering waterbirds on Baltic open marine waters. 56 line transects. One field visit each year in January. Two observers on two sides of the ship counting all birds using distance sampling and snapshot methodology. 2) Transitional Waters Wintering Waterbird Survey. Mid-January count of all birds occurring in 31 sites covering transitional waters. The study takes place using the generally accepted methodology recommended by Wetland International during the International Waterbird Census. Most of the area is counted from the shore - the observer counts the birds seen along the designated section. Large water bodies such as coastal lagoons are counted using an aircraft, a drone, or a boat.

Census 3 species Sterna sandvicensis, Phalacrocorax carbo and Calidris alpina in coastal zone. Sterna sandvicensis, Phalacrocorax carbo: all nests are counted in active breeding colonies. Calidris alpina: extincted in Poland, but during the fieldwork observers search for birds in historic breeding sites. Four new species have been added to the monitoring program since 2020: Ringed Plover, Little Tern, Oysterctcher and Shelduck. The methodology consists in monitoring known species siteds and determining number of pairs based on the highest established breeding category.

All known nests sites in the coastal zone (up to 10km from the coast) are inspected in every breeding season from the ground (early spring) and by climbing the nest tree (active nests in late spring). The monitoring includes the control of 107 known breeding sites of White-tailed Eagle on the Polish Baltic coast in a 10 km wide strip from the shoreline. The main goal of the study is to determine the reproductive parameters of the coastal population of the species. White-tailed eagle's productivity is described by three indicators: 1) mean number of chicks per pair entering reproduction; 2) mean number of chicks per pair with successful breeding; 3) breeding success - an indicator defining the percentage share of pairs that brood chicks in relation to the number of all pairs with known final hatching effect.

White-tailed eagle's productivity is described by three indicators: 1) mean number of chicks per pair entering reproduction; 2) mean number of chicks per pair with successful breeding; 3) breeding success - an indicator defining the percentage share of pairs that brood chicks in relation to the number of all pairs with known final hatching effect.
All known nests sites in the coastal zone (up to 10km from the coast) are inspected in every breeding season from the ground (early spring) and by climbing the nest tree (active nests in late spring). The monitoring includes the control of 107 known breeding sites of White-tailed Eagle on the Polish Baltic coast in a 10 km wide strip from the shoreline. The main goal of the study is to determine the reproductive parameters of the coastal population of the species.
