It is applicable to all values ​​and natural resources present in the national territory and in waters under national jurisdiction. The provisions of this Decree-Law do not prejudice the application of special arrangements in force, in particular those concerning the national ecological reserve, the public water domain, the national agricultural reserve and forestry, plant genetic, agricultural, hunting, inland freshwater fisheries, and aquaculture resources. Protected areas may be national, regional or local, depending on the interests they seek to safeguard. Protected areas shall be classified as follows: a) National park; b) Natural park; c) Nature reserve; d) Protected landscape; e) Natural monument. With the exception of the 'national park' typology, regional or local protected areas may adopt any of the aforementioned typologies and shall be accompanied by the related designation. Where any of the protected areas, whatever its type, is delimited exclusively in maritime waters under national jurisdiction, the term 'marine' shall be added to the typology used. Private protected areas may also be classified in accordance with Article 21. The classification of a protected area aims to give it a statutory protection status appropriate to the maintenance of biodiversity and ecosystem services; geological heritage, as well as the enhancement of the landscape.
