The Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), based on the Directive from 27 June 2001 (2001/42/EC) was transferred into German law by the Act of 26. 5. 2005. It offers an appropriate instrument for securing standards of environmental protection at an early stage, covering wide areas of offshore wind energy-usage in the German Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). In cooperation with the "Projektträger Jülich", the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety have sponsored a research project concerning important aspects of SEA in the German EEZ. From the various stages of SEA-procedure, the article focuses on the environmental report and monitoring stage.
