Executive Summary The aim of this report is to present the outcomes of the Adricosm Intermediate Stakeholder Questionnaire survey that collected information about existing fresh and marine waters monitoring networks in Montenegro. The final goal is to assess the existing infrastructure for surface, ground and marine water monitoring in Montenegro, identify the gaps and design an Integrated Marine Coastal Monitoring Master Plan which can satisfy the requirements of the existing national and international directives and agreements such as WFD, MedPOL and MSFD. 18 stakeholder questionnaires were analysed. The stakeholders are from
Governmental organisations
Environmental agencies
Academic Institutes
Consultant companies The results of the questionnaire revealed that:
1) several state-of-the-art monitoring networks exist for the Montenegro surface waters but several gaps exists for marine and groundwaters. The main Institutions carrying out the monitoring activities are: HMI, CETI, IMB and GEOS-M;
2) very little is done for the monitoring of marine hydrodynamics (including surface waves and sediment transport), groundwater quantity and quality, seabed and water column habitats, biological species characterization, fisheries and bio-geomorphology;
3) the reporting system for EEA (WFD) and MEDPOL is in place and connections between EPA and monitoring institutions should be reinforced;
4) the institutional framework for data collection in support of EPA reporting exists but data collection exists without connection to reporting that could be changed in order to increase the benefits;
5) most of the data archiving is done without a specific protocol, station names are duplicated or different depending on the Institution, and data formats are not interoperable;
6) data are widely disseminated to different communities using all the major dissemination media;
7) stakeholders’ activity is regulated by many national laws and decrees which make it difficult to have an harmonized data collection system without a specific agreement between EPA and each collecting Institution belonging to different Ministries.
Over a total of 21 existing monitoring networks, 11 are operational and they are listed in the Table below.

There are duplications between these networks, for example between network 1 and 6 done by HMI and the 3, 4 and 5 done by IMB. Furthermore there are two networks, 20 and 21 listed in Table 11 of the report, which are innovative and should be resumed and made operational. There is an evident lack of permanent monitoring for:
1) groundwaters; 2) coastal hydrodynamics and waves; 3) dominant seabed and water column marine habitat types; 4) biological communities associated with seabed or water column habitats; 5) fish abundance and species information, including invasive species.
Reporting is organized for EEA (WFD) and MedPOL even if gaps exist as outlined above. Part of the monitoring required for MSFD could use the existing MedPOL and WFD networks but much more is needed. The results of the questionnaire will be used to finalize the Integrated Coastal Monitoring Master Plan.

Background The ADRICOSM-Intermediate project started in October 2011 and the partnership is composed of CMCC (IT), CLU (IT), and the Environmental Protection Agency of Montenegro (EPA). The main objectives of the project are
1. planning the new integrated coastal monitoring network compliant with the WFD and MSFD requirements;
2. propose the proper Institutional network and suggest technical capacities required; 3. build a database for EPA needs to collect information from past scientific projects and
future monitoring programs; 4. training and technology transfer.
The Project will offer the Montenegro EPA and Ministry of Sustainable Development and Tourism a Master Plan for the integrated monitoring of the coastal area of Montenegro considering the oceanographic and hydrological components of the local water cycle and the existing data collection networks and institutional framework. The aim of the Master Plan is to support the reporting needs of EPA for the MSFD harmonized with the MedPOL and WFD requirements. The first task of the Project was to carry out a stakeholder consultation to identify stakeholders assets and existing monitoring networks. According to this task, a stakeholder questionnaire was implemented, stakeholders identified and questionnaire results analyzed. The questionnaire was implemented using a web tool available at the following web site: http://adricosm-intermediate.cluweb.com. The use of such a tool allowed to gather responses in a standardised way, so conclusions are more objectives and information is collected relatively quickly. The Stakeholder questionnaire was released on 13/01/2012 and remained open until 23/02/2012; during this time the stakeholders were provided with assistance on the compilation of the questionnaire from CMCC and CLU. The content of the Web tool is shown in Annex 1.

Questionnaire Structure and results The questionnaire contains seven sections. The sections are constructed to: 1) investigate the level of stakeholder awareness about WFD, MSFD, EIONET and MedPOL requirements; 2) the existing networks for the fresh (surface and underground) and marine water monitoring. The following is a list of the seven sections content: a copy of the blank questionnaire is found in Annex 1. Section 1: General information This section collects the general information about the stakeholder position. Section 2: Evaluation of expertise among stakeholders This section collects information about the specific stakeholder expertise in fresh and marine water monitoring and/or environmental assessment reporting including marine coastal waters, hydrology, atmosphere and urban waters. Section 3: Reporting needs and activities This section evaluates the stakeholder awareness level of the WFD, MFSD and UNEP/MAP MEDPOL . Section 4: Integrated water cycle monitoring for the Montenegro coastal area This section collects information about existing monitoring networks. Section 5: Data processing and dissemination policy In this section stakeholders are required to summarize the data processing and the dissemination policy used for each of the monitoring networks listed in Section 4. Section 6: Infrastructures and instruments/sensors availability This section aims to understand the infrastructure, instruments and sensors used or available to carry out the monitoring described in Sections 4 and 5. Section 7: Specific national requirements The stakeholders are asked to insert any additional monitoring requirements, from national programmes or legislation. Section 8: Past and present projects This section describes the stakeholder participation to national and international projects.

We consider that a value of 0 and 1 indicates a lack of expertise in the specific field, with the exception of meteorology which is well covered only by HMI, as emerging from other information collected in different programs. The emerging picture is that marine hydrodynamics, bio-geomorphology, habitat mapping and fisheries is a missing expertise among the stakeholders.

The specific stakeholder activities (reporting, data collection with and without connection to reporting) for WFD, MSFD, EIONET and MedPOL are described in Table 6 and Tables 7,8,9,10 illustrate the activities for WFD, MFSD, EIONET and MedPOL in details. Table 6 shows that the data collection in support of EPA reporting is quite well organized. However it is clear that there are organizations collecting data without reporting to EPA. This is the case for the Public Enterprise for coastal zone management and the Water Directorate. For WFD (Table 7) the degree of awareness is high and the network is well structured mainly because the national Law on Waters includes the WFD requirements. Most of the collected data are sent to EPA. From Table 8 it is clear that the degree of awareness on the MSFD requirements still coincide with the WFD requirements, there is a general need to train stakeholders on the specific requirements. From Table 9 it emerges that EIONET reporting works well for the WFD.

From Table 10 it is clear that the Institutional framework for data collection in support of MedPOL reporting is quite comprehensive. MedPOL collected data are disseminated to EPA and reporting is carried out by MED POL Focal Point, Pavle Djuraskovic, of HMI.

Section 4: Integrated water cycle monitoring for the Montenegro coastal area The Stakeholders were invited now to indicate the specific data Monitoring network and its functionalities. For each Monitoring network, the stakeholders provided detailed information about:
1. Water compartment, types of the measured variables (i.e. physical, chemical, meteorological, biological, hydro-morphological), variable names.
2. Station names with a network code. 3. Collection protocol, time interval and measurement frequency.
The survey indicated that 21 monitoring networks have been set up in the past 10 years and 11 of them are operational up to 2012. Generally monitoring started around 2006-2008 and some of the networks continued every year up to today. We did not consider the groundwater monitoring to be operational because it is explicitly stated that is on demand. It shows that there is the possibility to make it operational but the system is not yet fully built for that. The general understanding emerging from the analysis of the questionnaire is that several gaps exists for the MSFD while WFD and MedPOL are quite well covered. For MedPOL there is a lack of well established protocols for reporting information to EPA, while the reporting is done by MedPOL Focal point at HMI and does not involve directly EPA. The 11 operational networks cover:
1) river and lake waters; 2) bathing waters; 3) 1 nm (about 2 km) offshore coastal waters.
The type of measurements carried out for the 11 operational networks are given in the next section. There is coordination among Institutional data collection stakeholders (HMI, CETI and IMB) but more is needed in the future to meet the challenges of MSFD. There is an evident lack of permanent monitoring for:
6) groundwaters; 7) coastal hydrodynamics and waves; 8) dominant seabed and water column marine habitat types; 9) biological communities associated with seabed or water column habitats; 10) fish abundance and species information, including invasive species.

4.1 Detailed description of the networks.
The existing monitoring networks cover all the water compartments. Many networks have a repeat frequency as high as 15 days down to monthly and every six months. The number of stations varies for the different type of monitoring. The number parameters that are collected are wide and cover the majority of the physical-chemical parameters required except for the biology and hydrodynamics. Stakeholder Questionnaire does not include station coordinates. If possible for some monitoring networks these coordinates were retrieved from EPA reports. It is important to note that monitoring station can be different in different years.
Details of each monitoring network can be found below.

On the whole it seems that, among the 11 operational monitoring networks, Network 1 and 6 done by HMI overlap in terms of parameters with Networks 3, 4 and 5 done by IMB. Monitoring networks 20 and 21 are very innovative and needed but they have been carried out only in 2008, they should be resumed.
Section 5: Data processing and dissemination policy For the networks indicated in section 4, the stakeholders were required to specify the data processing and dissemination policy and the data are displayed in Table 12.

From Table 12 it is evident that some of the data collected, especially the biochemical marine data, do not have any reported standard. Improvement of the data collection and storage protocols is needed. Most of the data archiving is done without a specific protocol, station names could be duplicated or different depending on the Institution doing the monitoring, and data formats are not interoperable. In Table 13 the data dissemination method and implementation is analysed. Data are widely disseminated to different communities using all the major dissemination platforms.

The emerging picture from this part is that dissemination of data is done by HMI and CETI by regulatory Laws while for IMB it is done mainly by agreements from tenders. This could create delays in the data release and commitment of resources for the monitoring.
Section 6: Infrastructure and instrumentation available The Stakeholders were asked to provide the information about infrastructure, instruments, sensors, hardware and software used in the monitoring networks. In Table 22 the infrastructure and instrumentation used to support some of the monitoring networks are listed.

Overall it seems that computing facilities are scarce and may be outdated. This is an infrastructural component that requires a dedicated survey to assess the degree of available expertise at each Institution.
Section 7: Specific national requirements In this section, stakeholders were asked to mention the existing national legal framework for which a monitoring system is required. The following list has been given:
Law on Waters
Law on Sea
Decree on classification and categorization of surface and groundwaters 02-2007
Law on Environment
Law on Marine Fisheries
Decree on Bathing Water Quality
Law on Integrated Coastal Waters Management
The intersection between this national regulatory framework and the reporting requirements of EPA toward EEA, WFD, MedPOL and MSFD has to be elucidated by a dedicated study of the legal framework.
Section 8: Past and present projects The last Section collects information about past and present, mainly research and development, projects. The list of projects is given in Table 23: in summary in the past twenty years there were 8 national and 13 international projects. Table 23.

Final discussion and conclusions The present report documents the first successful collection of information about the existing integrated marine and fresh water monitoring system of the Montenegro coastal area and the surface and ground waters of marine relevance. The collection was carried out by means of a Web tool questionnaire available in Annex 1. All the data obtained from the questionnaire have been analyzed and this analysis gives a firm basis to the drafting of an Integrated coastal water monitoring Master Plan aimed at delivering information for EPA national and international reporting needs. It was found that five stakeholders (HMI, IMB, CETI, GEOS-M, PE-CZM) are actively engaged in monitoring of different components of the marine and fresh water environment and 4 of them (EPA, Water Directorate, Ministry of Tourism and Sustainable Development, PE-CZM) are involved in actual management of resources and policy actions. The following Table reviews the areas of expertise and the stakeholders.

As a result of the survey, several gaps in expertise among stakeholders emerge, in particular: marine hydrodynamics (including wave and sediments monitoring), biogeomorphology, habitat mapping (including fish stocks) and marine and fresh waters ecology. We consider that only one Institution for an area of expertise is not enough to cover all the monitoring requirements with the exception for the field of meteorology where the network is highly developed and it is organized only by HMI. The majority of the stakeholders are aware of the national and international requirements for monitoring marine and fresh waters. Currently 11 monitoring networks are identified and need to be analyzed in details because they contain essential elements of the WFD and MedPOL requirements (see Table 11). The WFD and MedPOL monitoring stations can cover several of the MSFD monitoring requirements in the near coastal area, for the chemical and physical parameters. However marine hydrodynamics, including sediment transport and beach morphology, and habitat classification, both for seabed and water column, are missing as well as fisheries accounting. It is recommended that these gaps could be essential components of the future Master Plan for Integrated Coastal Monitoring that will be developed during the next phase of the project. The main data collection Institutions, HMI, IMB, CETI, coordinate among themselves the activities but there is an evident duplication of efforts in some of the operational networks. On the other hands, some networks done only once need to be made operational since they cover some of the missing parameters requested by MSFD. On the whole, most stakeholders tend to disseminate their scientific data to the specific organisations. The project stakeholders are involved in 20 national and international projects. It was found that National regulatory frameworks, which define requirements for coastal monitoring, differ to some extent from the international directives and agreements. The largest number of responders pointed out that the infrastructures and the available research tools need upgrading. In conclusion the stakeholder questionnaire provided valuable information to develop the Integrated Coastal Monitoring Master Plan and the EPA database that will be now the follow up activity in Adricosm-Intermediate.

Annex II
Introductory note to the Questionnaire proposed for the Stakeholder Consultation Adricosm Intermediate is a project funded by the Montenegrin Ministry of Sustainable Development and Tourism and the Italian Ministry of Environment, Land and Sea that aims to develop a Master Plan for monitoring of the coastal areas of Montenegro considering the oceanographic, atmospheric, hydrological local water cycle and urban waste water management. The Plan should arrive to define the monitoring infrastructure, both technical and infrastructural, that will allow Montenegro to comply with the EU and other international monitoring requirements, giving the priority to the EU requirements. The reference institutional frameworks are: Water Framework Directive-WFD Marine Strategy Framework Directive-MFSD MedPOL This questionnaire is proposed to selected stakeholders to better understand the state of the art of the coastal monitoring facilities and protocols and the user requirements for the future Master Plan. The questionnaire includes 8 sections. The findings will be disseminated between the invited stakeholders.
