ABSTRACT
This paper describes the selection of the most important technical installations already operating or planned in the Baltic Sea. It highlights maritime regulations related to these installations and describes current practices utilized for the preparation of environmental impact assessments (EIA). It assumes that there is an adequate international legal system for protection of the Baltic natural environment. However, it points out some cases when this legal system does not sufficiently work, particularly during the process of EIA preparation.
