Background on the call for proposals
The call for proposals aims to build on EU initiatives to deal with chemical and explosive munitions that are currently dumped in EU sea basins. It seeks to support a project that will develop the most environmentally friendly, comprehensive and efficient technologies and methods for the removal, disposal and/or neutralisation of munitions dumped at sea.
The project should include testing new and/or improved technologies and methods in the Baltic Sea, as well as supporting stakeholder access to them, and their transfer to other European sea basins.
