It is at the local level that concrete integration actions occur, in the context of detailed planning, problem solving, and territorial management.

The timelines for maritime spatial plans should therefore, where possible , be coherent with the timetables set out in other relevant legislation, especially: Directive 2009/28/EC, which requires that the share of energy from renewable sources in gross final consumption of energy in 2020 is at least 20 % and which identifies coordination of authorisation, certification and planning procedures, including spatial planning as an important contribution to achievement of the EU’s renewable energy targets; Directive 2008/56/EC and Annex A( ...[+++]6) to Decision 2010/477/EU, which requires that Member States shall take the necessary measures to achieve or maintain good environmental status in the marine environment by 2020 and which identify maritime spatial planning as a tool to support the ecosystem-based approach to the management of human activities in order to achieve good environmental status; Decision No 884/2004/EC which requires that the trans-European transport network shall be established by 2020 by integrating Europe's land, sea and air transport infrastructure networks.

The timelines for maritime spatial plans and integrated coastal management strategies should therefore be coherent with the timetables set out in other relevant legislation, especially: Directive 2009/28/EC, which requires that Member State shall ensure that the share of energy from renewable sources in gross final consumption of energy in 2020 is at least 20 % and which identifies coordination of authorisation, certification and planning proced ...[+++]ures, including spatial planning as an important contribution to achievement of the EU’s renewable energy targets; Directive 2008/56/EC and Annex A(6) to Decision 2010/477/EU, which requires that Member States shall take the necessary measures to achieve or maintain good environmental status in the marine environment by 2020 and which identify maritime spatial planning as a tool to support the ecosystem-based approach to the management of human activities in order to achieve good environmental status; Decision 884/2004/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Decision No 1692/96/EC on Community guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network which requires that the trans-European transport network shall be established by 2020 by integrating Europe's land, sea and air transport infrastructure networks.

The timelines for maritime spatial plans and integrated coastal management strategies should therefore be as coherent as possible with the timetables set out in other relevant legislation, especially: Directive 2009/28/EC, which requires that Member State shall ensure that the share of energy from renewable sources in gross final consumption of energy in 2020 is at least 20 % and which identifies coordination of authorisation, certification and planning proced ...[+++]ures, including spatial planning as an important contribution to achievement of the EU’s renewable energy targets; Directive 2008/56/EC and Annex A(6) to Decision 2010/477/EU, which requires that Member States shall take the necessary measures to achieve or maintain good environmental status in the marine environment by 2020 and which identify maritime spatial planning as a tool to support the ecosystem-based approach to the management of human activities in order to achieve good environmental status; Decision 884/2004/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Decision No 1692/96/EC on Community guidelines for the development of the trans-European transport network which requires that the trans-European transport network shall be established by 2020 by integrating Europe's land, sea and air transport infrastructure networks.

In developing this strategy, the Member States shall consider the appropriateness of: developing one or more national strategic plans for the coast, using spatial or land use planning instruments to promote integrated planning and management (including instruments that give priority to coastal dependent uses in the foreshore area), land purchase mechanisms and declarations of public domain, developing contractual or voluntary agreements with coastal zone users, harnessing economic and fiscal incentives (compatible with Community legislation), and working through regional development planning mechanisms.
