Amendment 44 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) The geographical scope of marine waters and coastal zones overlaps in the coastal and territorial waters of Member States. The tools of maritime spatial planning and integrated coastal management are complementary, as they respectively focus on mapping existing and potential human activities for the purpose of preparing maritime spatial plans in marine waters and on the identification of measures for integrated management of these human activities in coastal zones. The joint coherent application of Maritime Spatial Plans and Integrated Coastal Management Strategies will improve the land-sea interface planning and management. The outermost regions, given their substantial economic dependence on the land-sea interface and on optimal use of their maritime space, should also be included in the scope of the Directive.

Recital 15
(15) Maritime spatial planning and integrated coastal management should apply the ecosystem-based approach as referred to in Article 1(3) of Directive 2008/56/EC so as to ensure that the collective pressure of all activities is kept within levels compatible with the achievement of good environmental status and that the capacity of marine ecosystems to respond to human-induced changes is not compromised, while enabling the sustainable use of marine goods and services by present and future generations and allowing them to invest and be economically competitive.

Recital 21
Recital 21
(21) A variety of measures under different policies apply in coastal zones. In order to achieve the objectives of this Directive, Member States should prepare an inventory of these measures and analyse the need for additional actions, such as actions to prevent erosion and manage accretion, adapt to the effects of climate change, combat coastal and marine litter, develop green infrastructure and help to prevent natural disasters and to combat the spread of algae. These should be applied in a coordinated and integrated way. In doing this, Member States should consider all relevant coastal activities and pay particular attention to cross-sectoral and land-sea interactions between these activities.
