Target description
Reduction or maintenance at current level the inflow of contaminants introduced into the marine environment from marine sources, including an application of measures to minimize releases of contaminants resulting from significant acute pollution event and from land sources in order to achieve or maintain concentrations of pollutants in the biotic and abiotic elements of the marine ecosystem at levels below the permitted thresholds, below which the probability of occurrence of undesirable effects of hazardous substances on marine organisms is minimal and which are in line with the recommendations of current national and international legal acts and which guarantee the achievement or maintenance of good environmental status. Concentrations of priority substances and other contaminants, with particular attention to organic substances that behave as ubiquitous, persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic, selected in accordance with the WFD, listed in Part A of Annex I to Directive 2013/39/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 August 2013 amending directives 2000/60/EC and 2008/105/EC in the scope of priority substances in the field of water policy (Dz.U. UE L 226 z 24.08.2013), hereinafter referred to as the "priority directive", measured in certain matrices do not exceed the environmental quality standards (EQS) indicated in the priority directive or threshold values determined regionally or at national level, if not specified in the priority directive. Concentrations of River Basin Specific Pollutants, listed in Annex VIII to the WFD do not exceed the threshold values established in accordance with the WFD. Concentrations of substances particularly harmful to the aquatic environment, specific synthetic and non-synthetic pollutants (referring to the water bodies of all categories) listed in Annex 6 to the Regulation of the Minister of Environment of 21 July 2016 on the method of classification of the surface water bodies and environmental quality standards for priority substances (Dz.U. poz.1187) do not exceed the threshold values indicated in the same document. Concentrations of other pollutants or groups of substances that may cause pollution effects in the region and considered at the regional level to be significant for the assessment of the status of the environment do not exceed the threshold values determined regionally or at the national level.

The impact of pollutants on marine fauna and flora at various levels: molecular, cellular, tissue, organ, individual and population, taking into account cumulative and synergistic effects, is at the level that guarantees the proper functioning of organisms, taking into account the preservation of normal physiological functions and thus maintaining the correct species structure and range of habitats.
Occurrence of significant acute pollution events, defined in Article 2 (2) of Directive 2005/35/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 September 2005 on pollution coming from ships and introduction of sanctions in case of violation of law (Dz.U. UE L 255 z 30.09.2005), including crude oil and similar compounds, are reduced to a minimum by implementing appropriate measures at the operational level and security systems.
Impact of pollutants, originating from releases resulting from significant acute pollution events on the structure of species (listed in Table 1 of Part II of Commission Decision 2017/848) and on the range of habitats (listed in Table 2 of part II of the Commission Decision), is reduced to a minimum by implementing actions and security systems aimed at to eliminate the presence of pollution of an abrupt nature.
Maintaining or increasing the productivity of the white-tailed eagle by maintaining or reducing the current level of anthropogenic pressure associated with the introduction of synthetic and non-synthetic compounds into the environment and disturbance in breeding sites.
