Abstract
Dear reader, welcome to the BALMAS project newsletter! Transnational cooperation in Adriatic region under the BALMAS project: Ballast Water Management System for Adriatic Sea Protection became fully operational with the start of the BALMAS project in November 2013. The BALMAS project integrates all necessary activities to enable a long-term, environmentally efficient, and financially and maritime trans-port sustainable implementation of ballast water management measures in the Adriatic Sea. In November we marked the first birthday of the BALMAS project. We have passed successfully several milestones, some of which are highlighted in this issue. BALMAS project Partners have been fully involved in a number of project activities, such as sampling in selected ports, attendance at numerous workshops and three regular meetings, and appearances in the media where ongoing and future work has been presented. We established also BALMAS Knowledge centre for the purpose of presenting our interim outputs and results to all interested readers. With all performed activities in the first year, the BALMAS project infrastructure is now completely in place, and we are well positioned to achieve planned objectives within the project time framework.
