Abstract |
Marine fisheries, as well as fisheries in large lakes, depend on the coastal area in a variety of ways. Most capture fisheries are based on coastal stocks; others exploit offshore stocks which spend part of their lives in inshore waters, e.g., in a nursery or feeding area. Fish stocks also rely on primary productivity in the coastal area as an important part of the food chain. Coastal aquaculture is also heavily dependent on the coastal area for space and resources. This dependency of the marine fisheries sector on the coastal area makes it particularly susceptible to activities which result in coastal environmental change which may have major impacts on the sector. At the same time, the fisheries sector can affect other coastal activities, e.g., through competition for space. The need is apparent, therefore, to consider the development and management of the fisheries sector within the context of coastal area management and development planning, i.e., in the context of the protection and management of the resources, the environment and the activities of the coastal area. These Guidelines are provided as explanatory material to Article 10 in the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries. Article 10 concerns the Integration of Fisheries into Coastal Management in order to assist in achieving the rational use of scarce coastal resources. In particular, they address the issue of how the fisheries sector can be integrated into coastal management plann ing so that interactions between the fisheries sector and other sectors can be taken into account in the establishment of management policy and practice with regard to coastal resources. The Guidelines are addressed to all who are interested in improving the use of fisheries resources in the coastal area. The Code sets out actions which are required at the level of national government or of the authorities responsible for fisheries. However, resource users have a role to play in the planning process, not least in making clear the different valuations placed upon the resource. Integrated coastal management (ICM) usually refer to the process of resources management in the interface between the sea and the land, but the principles of integrated management also apply to the water/land interface of large inland water bodies. The fisheries sector is taken, in the Code and these Guidelines, to refer to both capture fisheries and aquaculture, unless one or other sector is specifically mentioned. These Guidelines contain the Provisions of Article 10 of the Code of Conduct, in bold, followed by the related explanations and considerations. |
