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
D1C3: The assessment does not include the primary criterion D1C3 [i.e. The population demographic characteristics of the species (e.g. body size or age class structure, sex ratio, fecundity, and survival rates) are indicative of a healthy population which is not adversely affected due to anthropogenic pressures]. This selection decision was based on International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) advice for a related criterion under Descriptor 3 – Populations of commercially- exploited fish and shellfish (D3C3). In this ICES concluded that until proof-of-concept has been validated, D3C3 could not be considered operational for MSFD assessment purposes; consequently, D1C3 is not considered operational for MSFD assessment purposes.
This ICES advice is available at:
https://www.ices.dk/[…]/eu.2017.07.pdf
Justification for delay in setting EU/regional requirements
D1C5: All Swedish determinations of GES are implemented in a regulation (HVMFS 2012:18) issued from the Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management. From the update made in 2018 only criteria supported with at least one indicator are included in the regulation. Furthermore, only indicators underpinned with a regular monitoring programme are included.

The assessment of D1C5 is dependent on the relevant assessment under habitats directive but thresholds must be modified in order to fit the scope of MSFD, this could not be done so far due to lack of knowledge about the condition of relevant habitats.
