D 1 2018 reporting and COM DEC 2017/848/EU support: Progress on D 1 lists

D 1 2018 reporting and COM DEC 2017/848/EU support: Progress on D 1 lists of species and habitats Document: GES_18 -2017 -03 The purpose of the work is to: 1. Facilitate the 2018 reporting of updates for MSFD Articles 8, 9 and 10; 2. Ensure consistency in the data entered; 3. Apply Art. 8 guidance methodology for the identification of elements for assessment considering the indications, rules and frameworks proposed by the COM DEC 2017/848/EU

D 1 Actions • We invite to update the JRC expert network on D 1 (previously consulted for COM DEC review process) by 16. 10. 2017 • JRC will distribute a methodology paper and working list to experts • Consult with expert network on species and habitats to: Ø timely finalize list to be tested in the web forms for 2018 reporting as drop-down lists Ø refine the lists for the D 1 assessment according to the COM DEC 2017/848/EU requirements

D 2 2018 reporting and GES Decision support: D 2 lists of NIS Document:

D 2 2018 reporting and GES Decision support: D 2 lists of NIS Document: GES_18 -2017 -04 The purpose of the work is to: 1. Contribute to consolidated baseline inventories of marine NIS per MS by the reference year of 2012, on which the 2018 reporting will be based; 2. Facilitate discussions for the development of recommendations and best practices for common agreed methodological standards and rules on setting reference levels

Approach NIS baseline of extracted from: D 2 2012 • MSFD MS report for

Approach NIS baseline of extracted from: D 2 2012 • MSFD MS report for 2012 (Table for NIS inventory) • Paper reports, where no e-reporting was available The analysis includes: • Evaluation of the NIS baselines of 2012 • Spotting missing NIS • Highlighting NIS found after 2012 By using EASIN Catalogue & Geodatabase

D 2 Actions • We invite to update the JRC expert network on NIS

D 2 Actions • We invite to update the JRC expert network on NIS (previously consulted for COM DEC review process) by 16. 10. 2017 • JRC will distribute a methodology paper and working list per MS to experts • Consult with expert network on NIS in order to facilitate reporting by assessing and integrating the NIS lists prepared by the JRC for each Member State • Discuss common rules for setting reference levels for D 2 C 1 “newly-introduced NIS'‘ • Lists finalized with the contribution of experts and brought back to WG GES, also to provide input for the Art. 8 guidance

D 8 2018 reporting and GES Decision support: Contaminants for D 8 C 1

D 8 2018 reporting and GES Decision support: Contaminants for D 8 C 1 Document: GES_18 -2017 -02 The purpose of the work is to: 1. Identify substances considered by MS for 2018 reporting 2. Provide harmonized nomenclature 3. Support consistency of substance grouping/combining

D 8 Consideration of contaminant lists • Global conventions: Stockholm Convention, Rotterdam Convention, Basel

D 8 Consideration of contaminant lists • Global conventions: Stockholm Convention, Rotterdam Convention, Basel Convention, UNECE Conventions • European legislation: WFD, Registration, evaluation and authorisation of chemicals (REACH), Food and feed safety legislation • European Regional Seas: UNEP MAP Barcelona Convention, Black Sea Commission, HELCOM, OSPAR • Others: US-EPA priority pollutants list, JRC list of marinerelevant contaminants, emerging contaminants identified and compiled by the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) and the NORMAN Network

D 8 Actions • We invite to update the MSFD expert network on contaminants

D 8 Actions • We invite to update the MSFD expert network on contaminants (previously consulted for COM DEC review process) by 16. 10. 2017 • JRC will distribute the comprehensive substance list to experts for consultation 31. 10. 2017 to: Ø timely finalize list to be tested in the web forms for 2018 reporting as drop-down lists Ø discuss substances grouping according to the COM DEC 2017/848/EU requirements
