| 187. | Article 8 of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive provides for an initial assessment of marine waters by Member States for purposes of preparation of marine strategies under that directive. Article 17 of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive provides for a review every six years of such initial assessments. For convenience, such assessments are referred to in these Guidelines as ‘Marine Strategy Framework Directive assessments’ – or ‘MSFD assessments’ – to distinguish them from the assessment of significant adverse effects under the Environmental Liability Directive.
