UZN3: The global objective is: "Seas without harming marine species and habitats through the impact of human activities". The objective is implemented by means of the operational objectives UZ3.1, UZN3.2, UZN3.3, UZN3.4 and UZN3.5. The environmental objectives established in 2012 and their description under the 2012 MSFD report continue to apply. They are the basis for the 2016-2021 programme of measures notified to the European Commission in 2016. Since the implementation of the measures was only started in 2016, an assessment of the progress and effectiveness of the measures as a basis for updating the environmental objectives is often not yet possible. Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and/or the state of implementation of the measures. Only in individual cases where an indicator assessment is available on progress towards achieving the target will this be reported in the Progress Assessment.
UZN3.5: The total number of introductions and movements of new species is close to zero. Prevention measures are implemented to minimise (unintentional) introduction. Emerging species will be identified in time to ensure that promising emergency measures can be implemented, if necessary. The signing and implementation of existing regulations and conventions are an important prerequisite for this. The environmental objectives established by Germany in 2012 are the basis for the 2016-2021 programme of measures notified to the European Commission in 2016. Since the implementation of the measures was only started in 2016, an assessment of the progress and effectiveness of the measures as a basis for updating the environmental objectives is often not yet possible. Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and/or the state of implementation of the measures. Only in individual cases where an indicator assessment is available on progress towards achieving the target will this be reported in the Progress Assessment. The indicator "Trend and number of newly introduced non-native species", which is relevant to Article 10, is not included here, as it is already reported in detail under Article 8_GES (D2C1). Reference is made to Article 8_GES (D2C1).
UZN5.3: Other adverse environmental effects (such as entanglement and strangulation by waste parts) are reduced to a minimum. The environmental objectives established by Germany in 2012 are the basis for the 2016-2021 programme of measures notified to the European Commission in 2016. Since the implementation of the measures was only started in 2016, an assessment of the progress and effectiveness of the measures as a basis for updating the environmental objectives is often not yet possible. Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and/or the state of implementation of the measures. Only in individual cases where an indicator assessment on the state of achievement of the target is available, this will be reported in the Progress Assessment. The indicator "number of live birds in breeding colonies", which is considered under Article 10, is not included here, as the detailed report under Article 8_GES (D10C4) is already reported. Reference is made to Article 8_ESG reporting.
UZN5: The objective is "Seas without pressures from waste". The objective is implemented by means of the operational objectives UZN5.1, UZN5.2 and UZN5.3. The environmental objectives established in 2012 and their description under the 2012 MSFD report continue to apply. They are the basis for the 2016-2021 programme of measures notified to the European Commission in 2016. Since the implementation of the measures was only started in 2016, an assessment of the progress and effectiveness of the measures as a basis for updating the environmental objectives is often not yet possible. Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and/or the state of implementation of the measures. Only in individual cases where an indicator assessment is available on the state of achievement of the target, this will be reported in the Progress Assessment.
UZN5.1: A continuous reduction of input of and already present waste results in a significant reduction of harmful effects on the marine environment on beaches, the sea surface, the water column and the seabed. The environmental objectives established by Germany in 2012 are the basis for the 2016-2021 programme of measures notified to the European Commission in 2016. Since the implementation of the measures was only started in 2016, an assessment of the progress and effectiveness of the measures as a basis for updating the environmental objectives is often not yet possible. Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and/or the state of implementation of the measures. Only in individual cases where an indicator assessment is available on the state of achievement of the target, this will be reported in the Progress Assessment. The indicator "number of waste parts" relevant for Article 10 is not included here, as it is already reported in detail under Article 8_GES (D10C1). Reference is made to Article 8_ESG reporting.
UZN5.2: Hazardous waste proven to be present in marine organisms (in particular, microplastics) are approaching zero in the long term. The environmental objectives established by Germany in 2012 are the basis for the 2016-2021 programme of measures notified to the European Commission in 2016. Since the implementation of the measures was only started in 2016, an assessment of the progress and effectiveness of the measures as a basis for updating the environmental objectives is often not yet possible. Where possible, the text report shows the achievement of objectives and/or the state of implementation of the measures. The level of achievement of objectives will be assessed through OSPAR indicator OSPAR PLASTIC_FUL_STMCHS: Waste quantities in stomachs of fulmars reported in the North Sea for D10C1 and D10C3 in Article 8 Report Sheet. Reporting will not be repeated under ProgressAssessment.
