2. Plan Coast Study Tour 7/2007 Jürgen Autsch Sea Use Planning: Fishery 1.)Introduction 2.)Content of the study 3.)Task of the consultant 4.)Proposals of the consultant 5.)Conclusions

3. Current and future demands in the offshore areas Rapidly growing use interest for offshore areas Conflicts became more frequent Two-dimensional decisions are less satisfying Coordination off different use interest became more complex Plan Coast Study Tour 7/2007 Jürgen Autsch

4. Bernhard Heinrichs: Development zoning in Baltic Sea Bay areas Requirement of sea- uses and potential for development:  Tourism (e.g. boat tourism)  Sand/gravel extraction  Cables (electricity, telecom) and pipelines  Shipping routes/anchorage areas  Military practise areas  Wind farms and connecting cables  Fishery and aquaculture  Nature protection Plan Coast Study Tour 7/2007 Jürgen Autsch

5. Fishery and aquaculture n Idea: Definition of marine reserve area for fishery n Possible criteria: relevant fishing areas, spawn conserve areas, fish conserve areas Plan Coast Study Tour 7/2007 Jürgen Autsch

6. Task of the consultant Stocktaking: Investigation of relevant basic data and information for the relevant fishing areas, spawn conserve areas, fish conserve areas. Characterising the spawn conserve areas, fish conserve areas (use conflicts, potential threat ) and results presented in GIS-based maps. Characterising relevant fishing areas ( commercially relevant species, fishing tools, closed seasons, spatial and temporal extend of fish catches in coastal waters, expected / potential use conflicts, potential threats) and results presented in GIS-based maps. Plan Coast Study Tour 7/2007 Jürgen Autsch

7. Task of the consultant Analysis: Overlap of the different information and use interests Classification /quality rating of the relevant fishing areas, spawn conserve areas, fish (breed) conserve areas Result : Proposals for deviation of spatial categories Plan Coast Study Tour 7/2007 Jürgen Autsch

8. Data Base n Ministry of Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fishery n State Office for Agriculture, Food Security and Fishery n Information from different projects and internal data of the consultant n External experts Plan Coast Study Tour 7/2007 Jürgen Autsch

9. Example: Fishery and aquaculture “fishing locations”

10. Objectives of the study 1. Proposal for an area categorie in the SSP: reservation area: ”areas with special protection function of the natural base of fish fauna” 2. No area categorie in the SSP: “relevant fishing areas” Plan Coast Study Tour 7/2007 Jürgen Autsch

11. Result: Fishery and aquaculture “Areas with special protection function of the natural base of fish fauna”

12. Example 3: Fishery and aquaculture “Fishing areas”
