Abstract The Environmental Management Development in Ukraine project is funded by the Canadian International Development Agency through a contribution agreement signed with the International Development Research Centre. The project began on April 1, 1994, following a prenegotiated detailed project plan established with the full agreement of the Ukrainian Government. A Memorandum of Grant Conditions signed with the Ministry for Environment Protection and Nuclear Safety, set out the management framework for the project. This paper summarizes the final report on activities and lessons learned comprised by the first phase of EMDU1 dubbed EMDU-1 to distinguish it from a new program of activities also involving environmental management development which started on October 1st, 1997.

The Status

Purpose – The current situation in India concerning the implementation of the Stockholm Convention on persistent organic pollutants (POPs), aimed at regulating their production and use has been examined. The purpose of this paper is to present data on the quantities of POPs generated and accumulated in the country. Measures for environmental sound management of POPs and effective implementation of the Stockholm Convention have been recommended. Design/methodology/approach – A national implementation plan (NIP), presenting the status and inventory of POPs in India was developed. Ground-level situation of 12 POPs were assessed through inventorization, samples collection, analysis and interpretations. Findings – As per the inventory of POPs; to date, the total amount of polychlorinated biphenyls is assessed as up to 28,000 MT in the power sector and total quantity of date-expired obsolete pesticides stock was around 47,000 kg. The total emission of dioxins was estimated to be ∼8.7 kg toxic equivalent, with the main contributions coming from waste incineration followed by ferrous and non-ferrous metal production. There are gaps in the implementation, in terms of existing legal and regulatory framework and Stockholm Convention requirements. Practical implications – The analysis, results and recommendations presented would be useful for other developing countries in a comparable position to India confronting similar challenges of POPs management. Originality/value – During the development of the NIP, primary data on POPs were collected and assessed. This perhaps is the first research paper from India on the status and environmental management framework of POPs listed under various Annexes of the Stockholm Convention.

The One

The present attempt has a two prong-emphasis. On the one hand it demarcates the physical, structural, social and economic parameters and the eliciting environmental problems in Thriassion Plain, the main industrial area of metropolitan Athens, Greece. On the other hand it attempts to delineate a framework of total unit management in terms of actions that may make possible the solution of long term pollution problems focusing on the whole spectrum of potential policy alternatives. Such an approach could contribute in presenting some options, for water resources management in particular and in general for natural resources management efforts, that may outline an environmental management framework necessary for a continuous, comprehensive and future oriented development of the area.

The North

The Western Australia Department of Environmental Protection initiated the North West Shelf Marine Environmental Management Study in recognition of development pressures on the complex and poorly understood marine environment of the North West Shelf. The four-year study, which began in 1998, is providing strategic information for long-term sustainable use and conservation management in the region. It will develop and consolidate the technical information base, scientific understanding, and predictive capabilities required to support an integrated, ecologically based management framework. As a first step in the study, we have reviewed scientific knowledge relevant to the marine environment of the North West Shelf and its management. With the cooperation of industry, academia and government, we have compiled a bibliography of more than 1,700 published and unpublished sources of data, models and hypotheses. Australian Petroleum Production and Exploration Association Ltd (APPEA) members are responsible for much of this information. In addition, we have critically assessed models and tools for environmental management and identified key gaps in current scientific understanding related to management of marine resources on the North West Shelf. Finally, we have highlighted opportunities for future research on the North West Shelf and provided the foundation for design of the study.
