EMODNet Chemistry 2 - partnership Based on SeaDataNet network of NODC’s with Technical partners to further develop and run SDN infrastructure Specific expertise to coordinate data analyses and validation, and the creation of data products 32 partners 14 subcontractors
EMODNet Chemistry 2 - overview Objective: • To build on what was achieved under preparatory actions; • To deliver a marine observation infrastructure that offers the most effective support to the marine and maritime economy whilst supporting environmental protection needs. Specific objectives are: • assemble existing data into interoperable formats • develop, test, operate and maintain a portal for public access • monitor and report on the effectiveness of the system in meeting the users needs and analyse what further steps are needed to improve the system • keep the portal operational and be prepared to transfer to the EC EMODNET Lot 4 - Chemistry Kick-off meeting, 3-4 June 2013
The preparatory actions: 6 service contract are funded by DG-MARE for creating pilot components of the European Marine Observation and Data Network: hydrography, marine geology, chemistry, biology, habitats maps, physics. Started in 2009 3 years EMODNET Lot 4 - Chemistry Kick-off meeting, 3-4 June 2013

Reporting to EU: planning Deliverables: • Bimonthly concise progress reports through phases 1 to 3 (from M2 to M36) • First interim report after phase 1 (M12) • Second interim report after phase 2 (M24) • Draft final report 2 months before the end of phase 3 (M34) • Final report at the end of phase 3 (M36) • 15-page executive summary that can be read by a non-specialist EMODNET Lot 4 - Chemistry Kick-off meeting, 3-4 June 2013
Reporting to EU The bimonthly concise progress reports will be posted on the Maritime Forum, indicating meetings held, difficulties encountered, inventories of data made available (from M2) Interim and final reports have to be sent to EC for approval and payments, including summary of work done and what remains to be done, challenged faced, effort spent on data preparing and providing, developing standards(M12, M24, M34, M36) EMODNET Lot 4 - Chemistry Kick-off meeting, 3-4 June 2013
Administrative issues EMODNET Lot 4 - Chemistry Kick-off meeting, 3-4 June 2013
Administrative issues At the end of each period, the activity report and the relevant invoices have to be sent to EC by OGS After payment approval by EC, the relevant invoices or debit note or other official document have to be sent to OGS by all the partners and subcontractors EMODNET Lot 4 - Chemistry Kick-off meeting, 3-4 June 2013
Administrative issues: liquidated damages …the Commission may decide to impose liquidated damages per calendar day of delay according to the following formula: 0.3x(Volume/duration)=0.3x(3,999,999/1095)=1095,89 euro …such amount will be charged in proportion between all partners and subcontractors. It is much important to keep the scheduled date! EMODNET Lot 4 - Chemistry Kick-off meeting, 3-4 June 2013
