Target description	A.1 Tillförsel av näringsämnen från mänsklig verksamhet ska minska tills den inte orsakar koncentrationer av kväve och fosfor i havsmiljön som förhindrar att god miljöstatus upprätthålls eller nås. A.1 Input of nutrients from human activities shall decrease decrease until it does not cause concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorus in the marine environment which prevent good environmental status from being maintained or achieved	B.1 Tillförsel av farliga ämnen från mänsklig verksamhet ska minska tills den inte orsakar halter av farliga ämnen som förhindrar att god miljöstatus upprätthålls eller nås. B.1 Input of hazardous substances from human activities shall decrease until it does not cause concentrations of hazardous substances which prevent good environmental status from being maintained or achieved	B.2 Hazardous substances in the marine environment supplied by human activities must not cause adverse effects on biodiversity and ecosystems. B.2 Hazardous substances in the marine environment introduced through human activities shall not cause adverse effects on biological diversity and ecosystems.	C.5 Bifångst av marina däggdjur och sjöfåglar ska vara på en nivå som inte hotar populationens långsiktiga överlevnad. C.5 By-catch of marine mammals and marine birds should be at a level that does not threaten the long-term survival of the population.	E.2 Mänskliga verksamheter ska inte orsaka skadligt impulsivt ljud i marina däggdjurs utbredningsområden under tidsperioder då djuren är känsliga för störning. E.2 Human activities should not cause harmful impulse noise in the distribution areas for marine mammals during periods when the animals are sensitive to disturbance. Modification 2025: The aim of the target is expandes to also include fish and has changed focused to temporary or permanent heaaring loss. This can be done because of the introduction of the new target E.3.	E.3 Mänskliga verksamheter ska inte orsaka impulsivt ljud som utsätter havsmiljön för bullernivåer som förhindrar att god miljöstatus kan upprätthållas eller nås. E.3 Human activities should not cause impulsive noise that exposes the marine environment to noise levels that prevent good environmental status from being maintained or achieved.	E.4 Tillförsel av kontinuerligt lågfrekvent ljud från mänsklig verksamhet ska vara på en nivå som inte hindrar att god miljöstatus kan upprätthållas eller nås. E.4 The input of continuous low-frequency noise from human activities should be at a level that does not prevent good environmental status from being maintained or achieved.
