Context
On 10 October 2007, the Commission presented its vision for an Integrated Maritime Policy for the European Union. The vision document – also called the Blue book – was accompanied by a detailed Action Plan . " An EU Integrated Maritime Policy will focus its action primarily in the following five areas; - Maximising the sustainable use of oceans and seas - Building a knowledge and innovation base for the Maritime Policy - Delivering the highest quality of life in coastal regions - Promoting Europe's leadership in international maritime affairs - Raising the visibility of maritime Europe" For the sake of greater coherence, this policy gives preference to a holistic approach, i.e. all areas or sectors concerned are taken into account. For example, the economic issues must incorporate environmental aspects and vice versa. Similarly, the development of a sector of activity will have to take account of all the sectors developed on the same territory or using the same maritime areas. As natural boundaries between the land and the sea, the coastal regions of Europe fall quite naturally under this policy. Coastal regions inhabitants, visitors and economic activities located in these areas have a direct or indirect impact on the sea.
