Development of Seal Conservation Action and Management Plan (SCAMP; now also known as CSCAP) The 4th draft of the CSCAP has now been elaborated. The first two drafts of SCAMP were developed in 2005/06 by the CISS team and Darwin CSCN, based on experience from the Baltic (HELCOM) and the Wadden Sea. These drafts were distributed among countries via the CEP and the CEP has prepared the 3rd and the current 4th draft , now referred to as the CSCAP
SCAMP (CSCAP) consists of 6 parts: • Institutional arrangement; • Conservation of seals and their habitats; • Scientific background (research and monitoring) • Reduction of taking (legal, illegal, and by catch) • Public information • Financial implications
RECOMMENDATIONS by the CEP Steering Committee, Moscow, December 2006 To approve the Caspian Seals Conservation Action & Management Plan (CSCAP) as a guidance document for the voluntary adherence of the region and To invite the countries to include the provisions of the Plan to the extent possible in the National Conservation Action Plan (NCAP) update processes.
