Monitoring strategy description	The goal of the Strategy is to achieve the status of the marine environment in which contaminants in fish and other seafood for human consumption do not exceed levels established by Union legislation or other relevant standards. The strategy concerns the monitoring of the level of hazardous substances in fish exploited commercially. The strategy includes research in the range of concentrations of selected substances in samples collected systematically at selected stations and locations with the assumed frequency. The choice of substances to be monitored results from the current legislation and the analysis of current pressures. Both the network of stations / locations and the frequency are adjusted to the specificity of the substances of concern - indicators. The strategy takes into account regional arrangements (cooperation within HELCOM), both in terms of the assessed indicators, as well as spatial and temporal resolution guaranteeing the obtaining of results that can be the basis for holistic assessment in the entire Baltic Sea area. The strategy concerns monitoring investigations, which are primarily to provide information on the current status of the marine environment. The assessment of the status of the environment in terms of the indicators is carried out by relating the current concentrations of the hazardous substance to the threshold values set at European, regional or national level. The information obtained is the basis for tracking changes taking place in the environment, mainly as a result of the measures taken, which are determined on the basis of the analysis of the current situation, properties typical for good environmental status and environmental targets.

Programme description	The programme of contaminant levels in organisms, including commercially exploited species, covers research on fish collected once a year during the summer season from 7 locations: Władysławowo fishery, Kolobrzeg – Darłowo fishery, Gdańsk Basin, Pomeranian Bay, Szczecin Lagoon, Vistula lagoon and Central Coast, studies of mussels collected once a year during summer at one location in the Sopot area and studies of macrophytes collected from 4 locations: Orłowski Cliff, Jama Kuźnicka, Słupsk Bank, Rowy. In fish muscle tissue polybrominated diphenyl ethers, hexabromocyclododecane, perfluorooctane sulphonate, perfluorooctanoic acid, polychlorinated biphenyls, organotin compounds, organochlorine pesticides, mercury, arsenic and 137Cs are analysed. In fish liver lead, cadmium, zinc i copper are analysed. In fish bile polyaromatic hydrocarbon metabolites are analysed. In mussel soft tissue polybrominated diphenyl ethers, hexabromocyclododecane, perfluorooctane sulphonate, perfluorooctanoic acid, polychlorinated biphenyls, organotin compounds, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, organochlorine pesticides, lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic, zinc and copper are analysed. In macrophyte tissue lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic, zinc, copper 137Cs are analysed. The programme also covers analysis of arsenic in fish as a possible indicator of pollution with chemical warfare agents. Arsenic is analysed in fish muscle tissue collected from 4 locations of the deep sea area. Data on dioxins, furans and dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls are collected within dioxin monitoring conducted under National Control Programme of dioxins (PCDD), furans (PCDF), dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (dl-PCB) and non-dioxin-like PCBs (ndl-PCB) in animal food products supervised by General Veterinary Inspectorate. Monitoring assumes the assimilation of data from WFD monitoring.

Monitoring assumes the assimilation of data from WFD monitoring.	The programme of contaminant levels in organisms, including commercially exploited species, covers research on fish collected once a year during the summer season from 7 locations: Władysławowo fishery, Kolobrzeg – Darłowo fishery, Gdańsk Basin, Pomeranian Bay, Szczecin Lagoon, Vistula lagoon and Central Coast, studies of mussels collected once a year during summer at one location in the Sopot area and studies of macrophytes collected from 4 locations: Orłowski Cliff, Jama Kuźnicka, Słupsk Bank, Rowy. In fish muscle tissue polybrominated diphenyl ethers, hexabromocyclododecane, perfluorooctane sulphonate, perfluorooctanoic acid, polychlorinated biphenyls, organotin compounds, organochlorine pesticides, mercury, arsenic and 137Cs are analysed. In fish liver lead, cadmium, zinc i copper are analysed. In fish bile polyaromatic hydrocarbon metabolites are analysed. In mussel soft tissue polybrominated diphenyl ethers, hexabromocyclododecane, perfluorooctane sulphonate, perfluorooctanoic acid, polychlorinated biphenyls, organotin compounds, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, organochlorine pesticides, lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic, zinc and copper are analysed. In macrophyte tissue lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic, zinc, copper 137Cs are analysed.
