MEREUURINGU- ja LAEVALOA pikendamine; nr 16-12/26/27
30.06.2026
Veeseaduse § 248 lõike 1 alusel ning tulenevalt GlobalConnect AB poolt 11.06.2026 esitatud mereuuringu- ja laevalubade pikendamistaotlusest pikendab Kliimaministeerium 23.02.2026
välja antud mereuuringu- ja laevaloa nr 16-12/26/11 (edaspidi mereuuringuluba) kehtivust kuni
31.12.2026.
Mereuuringuloas toodud soovitus viia läbi geofüüsikalised uuringud Vilsandi Rahvuspargi
piirkonnas mais või juunis ei ole loa pikendamise tõttu enam asjakohane, kuid võttes arvesse
uuringute eelduslikku ajalist kestvust 5 päeva, on Keskkonnaamet hinnanud, et võimalik häiring
ei kahjusta linde ega ohusta kirjuhaha (Polysticta stelleri) kaitseks moodustatud linnu- ja
kaitsealade kaitse-eesmärke.
Muinsuskaitseamet kooskõlastab mereuuringuloa pikendamise tingimusel, et uuringu käigus seni
teadmata veealuse kultuuripärandi objekti või muu võimaliku arheoloogilise leiu avastamisel tuleb
sellest viivitamata teavitada Muinsuskaitseametit ning edastada objekti asukohaandmed, kirjeldus
ja olemasolev dokumentatsioon. Samuti tuleb pärast uuringu lõppemist Muinsuskaitseametile
esitada uuringu lõpparuanne ning kultuuripärandi kaitse seisukohalt asjakohased uuringu
alusandmed, sealhulgas lehviksonari (MBES), külgvaatesonari (SSS), magnetomeetri ning
settekihtide profileerija (SBP) uuringu alusandmed, ROV-vaatluste materjalid ning uuringu käigus
tuvastatud objektide koordinaadid ja kirjeldused digitaalsel kujul üldlevinud failivormingutes.
Lisaks ülaltoodule kehtivad endiselt kõik mereuuringuloa nr 16-12/26/11 lisatingimused ja
uuringuloa omaja kohustused kuni pikendatud mereuuringuloa kehtivuse lõpuni 31.12.2026.
Mereuuringu- ja laevaloa andmise peale võib 30 päeva jooksul haldusakti teatavakstegemisest
arvates esitada halduskohtule kaebuse halduskohtumenetluse seadustikus sätestatud korras.

EXTENSION of the MARINE SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH PERMIT and ENTRY
CLEARANCE; No 16-12/26/27
30.06.2026
Based on subsection 1 of § 248 of the Water Act and the application submitted by GlobalConnect
AB on 11 June 2026 for an extension of Marine Research Permits and Entry Clearance, the
Ministry of Climate hereby extends the validity of the Marine Scientific Research Permit and
Research Vessel Entry Clearance No 16-12/26/11 (hereinafter 'Marine Research Permit'), issued
on 23 February 2026, until 31 December 2026.
The recommendation in Marine Research Permit to conduct geophysical surveys in the Vilsandi
National Park area in May or June is no longer relevant due to the extension of the permit, but
considering the expected 5-day duration of the survey, the Environmental Board has assessed
that the possible disturbance will not harm the birds nor threaten the objectives of the protection
areas established for the protection of Steller’s eider (Polysticta stelleri).
The Estonian National Heritage Board approves the extension of the Marine Research Permit
on the condition that, should any previously unknown underwater cultural heritage site or any
other potential archaeological find be discovered during the survey, the Estonian National
Heritage Board shall be notified without delay. The notification shall include the location, a
description of the object, and all available documentation. Upon completion of the survey, the
Estonian National Heritage Board shall be provided with the final survey report and all survey
baseline data relevant to the protection of cultural heritage, including the multibeam echosounder
(MBES), side-scan sonar (SSS), magnetometer and sub-bottom profiler (SBP) surveys, ROV
inspection materials, as well as the coordinates and descriptions of objects identified during the
survey. The data shall be submitted in commonly used digital file formats.
In addition to the above, all conditions of the Marine Research Permit No. 16-12/26/11 and the
obligations of the research permit holder shall remain in force until the expiry of the
extended Marine Research Permit on 31 December 2026.
In accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act, issuing of this Marine Research Permit and
Entry Clearance may be filed in Administrative Court within 30 days after the issuance of the
Permit.

Extension of marine research permits and entry
clearances ("CAIUS", "TELEPAATTI")
Dear Adela Vestberg,
The Ministry of Climate is pleased to extend the Marine Research Permits and Entry Clearances
