 
The activities of HARBASINS are structured around four central work packages related to the ecological, chemical and hydromorphological quality aspects and the management plans of the Water Frame Work Directive WFD), with a fifth work package coordinating the overall project management and knowledge dissemination.
The Work Packages 2, 3 and 4 are contributing to Work Package 1, in which the results are incorporated in a final report with conclusions and recommendations.
As part of HARBASINS, a network of public authorities and scientific institutions will be created encouraging the exchange of knowledge and discussions required to establish harmonised management, monitoring and assessment techniques. In addition, HARBASINS will host a number of fora and seminars to further these discussions and will create a website for the dissemination of data and expertise. The final output will include recommendations for adequate implementation of the WFD for individual river basins, together with recommendations for sound environmental management of interconnected coastal zones in the North Sea. |
