4.4.     Transitional waters

4.4.1.      Main assessment status and main pressures and impacts

Figure 4.19.a shows that there are eight member states (Sweden, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Netherlands, Germany, Belgium (Flanders) and Romania) in which all transitional water bodies are in less than good status (moderate, poor or bad). A high percentage (> 80%) of transitional water bodies in less than good status is also reported for Greece and Bulgaria as well as for the French Mediterranean coast.
