Abstract

his report describes and covers most of the input required for the background document that is
needed for taking conservation measures under the Common Fishery Policy and contains:
- An overview of the conservation objectives and environmental targets of relevance
- Scenarios to select key areas for restrictions of bottom disturbing activities
- An up-to-date distribution map of the benthic habitats and their biological value
- A sensitivity evaluation of the benthic habitats
- A review on the sea-bottom impact of the different fishing métiers
- Conservation measures (e.g. fishery, other bottom disturbing activities) to take
- Detailed socio-economic analyses of the fishery activities within the BPNS
