2. Data collection ISPRA role in chemical marine monitoring in Italy
ISPRA supports the Italian Ministry of Environment for the implementation of WFD and MSFD. ISPRA also coordinates and collects monitoring data from the SNPA – National System for Environmental Protection that is made of ARPA – Regional Environmental Agencies.
ISPRA will collect and made available on EMODNet Chemistry platform chemical marine monitoring data from two flows:
MSFD Italian monitoring programme ex art. 11 by ARPAs and CNR
EIONET/SOE monitoring programme by APRA for EEA

6. Maps on contaminants General context
Produce specific maps on contaminants that could be a useful tool in environmental impact assessment analysis requested by many EU directives and Regional Sea Conventions agreements.
For a selection of specific contaminants and associated matrix, available data will be quality controlled and validated, and maps will be produced from the validated data.
For such selection the priority substance list extracted from EU Directive /39/EU (EQSD) has been compared with contaminants included in the EMODnet Chemistry tender
