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 in the upcoming months.
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.

Determination date
  • 2018-10 (D1.5)
Update type
  • Same as last reported determination (D1.5)
Justification for non-use of criterion
D1C1: Criteria D1C1 is not used for determining GES because there is not enough reliable data about mortality rate per bird, seal and fish species from inci­dental by-catch. Criteria not applicable for pelagic habitats.
D1C1: The criterion is not used since there are is a lack of data and appropriate monitoring programs to address the criterion.


D1C5: The criterion is not used since there are is a lack of data and appropriate monitoring programs to address the criterion.
D1.5: There is no regular presence of inks in the Baltic Sea due to its low salt content (cephalopods). They tend to enter the German waters of the Baltic Sea as a rare visitor, together with major salt-water incidents in the Baltic Sea, but cannot establish themselves due to the low salt content. Cephalopods are therefore not relevant for assessing the environmental status of the German Baltic waters.
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.
