Particularly sensitive sea areas (PSSAs) are areas of the seas and oceans that need special protection because of their ecological, economic, cultural or scientific significance and their vulnerability to harmful impacts from international shipping activities. When an area is approved as a PSSA, specific measures can be used to control the maritime activities in that area to improve maritime safety. In December 2005, the 24th session of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Assembly approved the proposed measures and the Baltic Sea will have the new status as of 1 July 2006. This paper presents the environmental situation in the Baltic Sea and what implications the PSSA designation may have on the Baltic environment in the future.
