Sites of national interest - SIN (Italy)

Sites of National Interest (SIN) are large portions of the national territory, of particular environmental value in the various environmental matrices (including any surface water bodies and their sediments), identified by law, for reclamation purposes, on the basis of characteristics (of contamination and others) that entail a high health and ecological risk due to population density or the extension of the site itself, as well as a significant socio-economic impact and a risk for assets of historical and cultural interest. The layer contains the perimeter at land of coastal Sites of National Interest in Italy.
