(23) Through maritime spatial plans and integrated coastal management strategies Member States can reduce administrative burden and costs in support of their action to implement other relevant Union legislation. The timelines for maritime spatial plans and integrated coastal management strategies should therefore be coherent with the timetables set out in other relevant legislation, especially: Directive 2009/28/EC, which requires that Member State shall ensure that the share of energy from renewable sources in gross final consumption of energy in 2020 is at least 20 % and which identifies coordination of authorisation, certification and planning procedures, including spatial planning as an important contribution to achievement of the EU's renewable energy targets; Directive 2000/60/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2000 establishing a framework for Community action in the field of water policy, which requires that Member States achieve good ecological potential, good groundwater status and good surface water chemical status by 2015, Directive 2008/56/EC and Annex A(6) to Decision 2010/477/EU, which requires that Member States shall take the necessary measures to achieve or maintain good environmental status in the marine environment by 2020 and which identify maritime spatial planning as a tool to support the ecosystem-based approach to the management of human activities in order to achieve good environmental status; Decision 884/2004/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Decision No 1692/96/EC on Community guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network which requires that the trans-European transport network shall be established by 2020 by integrating Europe's land, sea and air transport infrastructure networks.
