As part of EEA's ongoing security and identity management improvements, we are currently migrating the system to Entra ID authentication.
We kindly ask all users to start using Entra ID credentials when logging in to the system. 

Please note that LDAP authentication will be phased out and disabled by the end of August 2026.
We encourage you to verify that you can successfully access the system and that your account and permissions function as expected after Entra ID login.
Should you encounter any issues or require assistance during this transition, please contact Laszlo Cseh at laszlo.cseh@eaudeweb.ro 
Thank you for your cooperation and support.

Justification for non-use of criterion
Thresholds for the adverse effects of physical disturbance on each habitat type, and the maximum permissible extent of habitat loss and adverse effects on the condition of each habitat type are not yet established at regional and / or subregional level: insufficient data for the level of pressure and effects on the marine environment; under discussion in the TG Seabed working group in which Portugal participates.
Justification for delay in setting EU/regional requirements
