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.

GES description
GES not determined at sub-regional level as laid down in Article 3 (5) (b) of the MSFD. In the framework of the Article 8 assessment it was considered that GES will be reached if less than 10 % of the samples do not present concentrations for contaminants exceeding the values set by Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006 19 December and Regulation (EC) No 629/2008 (EC) on 2 July in the assessment area. Since the data set for evaluation was considered insufficient, GES was considered unknown for the subdivision of the Azores.
The level of contaminants in edible tissues (muscle, liver, eggs, meat or other soft parts, where appropriate) of marine organisms (including fish, crustaceans, molluscs, echinoderms, algae and other marine plants) caught or harvested in the wild (except finfish from mariculture) is not higher than the maximum levels laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1881/2006.
GES not determined at sub-regional level as laid down in Article 3 (5) (b) of the MSFD. Assessment under Art. 8 based on the level of risk, considering that the level of risk is low and GES is achieved.
