Description

The exact contribution and management options to reduce the risk of marine litter from aquaculture activities remain poorly understood. OSPAR has committed to a Regional Action Plan on Marine Litter (2022), including an action to prevent and reduce marine litter from aquaculture, led by the UK, Norway and Sweden - OSPAR Action B.4.7: Prevent and reduce marine litter from aquaculture. Delivery of recommendations and guidance to fulfil this action is dependent on establishing an evidence base of the sources, pathways and impacts of marine litter from all forms of aquaculture, the current licensing and decommissioning procedures, and any implemented measures to monitor, prevent and retrieve marine litter.
