    twenty five Special Areas of Conservation which have Coastal Lagoons (1150) as

    a qualifying interest. Under Article 11 of the Habitats Directive, surveillance of the

    conservation status of Annex I habitats is required and under Article 17 each

    member state is obliged to report on this status to the European Commission

    every six years. Under the Water Framework Directive lagoons are included as

    coastal and transitional waters and they must be assessed to provide ecological

    status. See RFT for further details.
