3 What is Marine Bioregional Planning? A basis for ecosystem-based management at a landscape scale Across sectors and relevant spatial and temporal scales Focused on defining the E in ESD Not centralised integrated planning and management Inform environmental regulation and programs e.g. Marine protected areas, environmental impact assessment A guide to sectoral management e.g. informing ecosystem-based fisheries management
4 The scale of the planning effort
5 What does the planning involve? Describe the marine environment and conservation values of each marine region Identify regional priorities based on analysis of pressures to conservation values Outline strategies and actions to address regional priorities
6 Conservation values Issues protected under federal environmental law e.g. World Heritage Areas, threatened species Key Ecological Features parts of the marine ecosystem that are important for biodiversity or ecosystem function and integrity Analogous to EBSAs Biologically important areas areas where a protected species displays biologically important behaviour such as breeding, foraging, resting and migration.
7 Examples A key ecological feature - small pelagic fish in the South-west provide a link between primary production and higher predators. Fluctuations in their abundance have potentially serious implications for the health and productivity of the South-west marine environment. A biologically important area - Western Eyre Peninsula and Kangaroo Island important breeding areas and foraging grounds for the threatened Australian sea lion.
8 Regional priorities Key issues that should inform decisionmaking about marine conservation, management, industry development and other human activities. Based on a pressure analysis a review of present and emerging pressures, their impact on conservation values, and the effectiveness management arrangements in place.
9 Strategies to address identified priorities Include Establish and manage representative marine protected areas Guidance on the application of environmental impact assessment requirements Priority issues for improved fisheries management Priorities for threatened species recovery actions Priorities for research and understanding
10 Marine protected areas
11 Guidance on environmental impact assessment Actions that have a real chance or possibility of resulting in: modification, destruction, fragmentation, isolation or disturbance of an important or substantial area of habitat in the area around the Houtman Abrolhos Islands a substantial change in water quality in the area around the Houtman Abrolhos Islands persistent organic chemicals, heavy metals or other potentially harmful chemicals accumulating in the area around the Houtman Abrolhos Islands have a high risk of significant impact on the marine environment.
12 Priorities for fisheries management Examples from the draft South West Plan develop improved management initiatives for the bycatch of protected species particularly school shark, white shark and Australian sea lion focusing on improving understanding of the cumulative effects of bycatch across multiple fisheries and the establishment of ongoing monitoring indicators improve fisheries interaction data sets for cetaceans
13 Lessons and observations for ABNJ Conservation and sustainable use is more effectively achieved through a landscape scale approach. Across sectors and relevant spatial and temporal scales Utilising the right tools in the right places Understanding the E in ESD is the foundation A basis for conservation measures A basis for coordinated efforts across sectoral managers A basis for evaluation and accountability It s easier said than done But the foundations already exist e.g. EBSAs, Regular Process, regional frameworks
