HELCOM – the Convention on the Protection of the Marine Environment of the Baltic Sea Area
HELCOM – Konvencija o varstvu morskega okolja območja Baltskega morja
In 1974 several countries bordering the Baltic signed the Helsinki Convention, updated in 1992 when a new Convention was signed in response to changing environmental principles and developments in the geo-political environment.
Leta 1974 so številne države, ki mejijo na Baltik, podpisale Helsinško konvencijo, ta je bila leta 1992 posodobljena z novo konvencijo, ki je bila podpisana kot odziv na spreminjajoča se okoljska načela in spremenjeno geopolitično okolje.
Many countries need to come together to make COHIBA a success, as the pollution of the Baltic Sea is not something that can be worked on by individual states.
Več držav mora sodelovati, da bo projekt COHIBA uspešen, saj onesnaževanje Baltskega morja ni nekaj, s čimer bi se lahko spopadala posamezna država.
But is there the political will, a realisation of the imperative?
Toda ali je politična volja, spoznanje te nujnosti?
The organisation coordinates regional monitoring and produces scientific assessments on the status of various elements governing the well-being of the sea as decided on by all the countries involved.
Kot so to določile vse vpletene države, organizacija usklajuje regionalno spremljanje in izdaja znanstvena vrednotenja stanja številnih elementov, od katerih je odvisno dobro stanje morja.
As an environmental policymaker, HELCOM develops common objectives and actions.
Kot oblikovalec okoljskih politik HELCOM razvija skupne cilje in ukrepe.
As Forsius meets national experts and gives presentations at conferences, he finds that the smaller Baltic States are very keen to get help.
Kot upravljavski organ konvencije je Helsinška komisija (HELCOM) sestavljena iz predstavnikov Danske, Estonije, Evropske skupnosti, Finske, Nemčije, Latvije, Litve, Poljske, Rusije in Švedske.
However, as he explains, they are burdened with many tasks and the current financial situation is also a drain on scant resources.
Ko Forsius srečuje nacionalne strokovnjake in jim na konferencah predstavlja svoj projekt, ugotavlja, da si manjše baltske države zelo želijo pomoči.
“They have less and less money and, at the same time, are being required to raise their levels of performance,” he says.
Vendar pa, kot pojasnjuje, so obremenjene s številnimi nalogami in trenutna finančna kriza tudi izčrpava že tako omejena sredstva.
The governing body of the convention, the Helsinki Commission (HELCOM), is made up of Denmark, Estonia, the European Community, Finland, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Russia and Sweden.
„Države imajo vse manj denarja in hkrati se od njih zahteva več,“ pravi Forsius.
What has it achieved so far?
Kaj je dosegla doslej?
And even if all the Baltic countries do their best and cut back their levels of emissions, action has to be taken over a wider geographical area.
In tudi če vse baltske države naredijo vse, kar je v njihovi moči, in zmanjšajo količine izpustov, je treba ukrepati v širšem geografskem območju.
“It doesn’t help if we are perfect in the Baltic countries, we still need to have requirements outside the sea area as well.” 40% of some airborne pollutants which contaminate the sea are wafting in from countries well outside the Baltic region, like the UK.
„Ne pomaga nam kaj dosti, če smo brezhibni v baltskih državah, še vedno moramo postavljati zahteve tudi za območja, ki niso v neposredni bližini morja.“ 40% onesnaževal, ki zastrupljajo morje po zraku, prihajajo iz držav, ki so daleč od baltske regije, na primer Združeno kraljestvo.
As a result of the data, steps have been taken to reduce the input of nutrients and hazardous substances and some of the negative impacts linked to shipping.
Na podlagi zbranih podatkov so bili sprejeti ukrepi za zmanjšanje vnosa hranilnih in nevarnih snovi, zmanjšani pa so bili tudi nekateri negativni učinki ladijskega prometa.
HELCOM also provides a forum for specialists to co-operate in fields such as planning for, and rapid response to, disasters.
HELCOM deluje tudi kot forum za strokovnjake, ki sodelujejo na področjih, kot so načrtovanje hitrega odzivanja in hitro odzivanje na nesreče.
The setting up of a network of Baltic Sea Protected Areas has played a role in the improved status of species such as the white-tailed eagle, cormorant, Baltic wild salmon and seals, in the northern reaches of the sea.
Vzpostavitev omrežja zavarovanih območij Baltskega morja je imela pomembno vlogo za izboljšanje stanja vrst, kot so belorepi orel, kormoran, baltski divji losos in tjulenji v severnem delu morja.
HELCOM’s screening project of occurrences of hazardous materials ending up in the sea itself started in 2008.
HELCOM-ov projekt nadziranja pojavnosti nevarnih snovi, ki pristanejo v samem morju, se je začel leta 2008.
Funded by the Nordic Council of Ministers, this analyses samples of fish and the sea water, complementing the work of COHIBA which screens for chemicals as they start their infiltration into the environment, at waste water source.
Financira ga Nordijski svet ministrov in analizira vzorce rib v morski vodi, tako da dopolnjuje delo projekta COHIBA, ki pri viru odpadnih voda nadzira kemikalije, preden začnejo pronicati v okolje.
HELCOM’S action plan, already adopted by all the countries, feeds into the Baltic Sea Strategy to further its environmental goals.
HELCOM-ov akcijski načrt, ki so ga že sprejele vse države, se vključuje v strategijo Baltskega morja, da spodbuja doseganje njenih okoljskih ciljev.

The Baltic Sea Strategy has benefited from extensive public consultation.
Strategiji za regijo Baltskega morja je zelo koristilo širše javno posvetovanje.
Here is what some of you are saying.
Tole ste povedali nekateri izmed vas:
A balanced development of the Baltic Sea Region cannot only focus on the main basin of the Baltic Sea.
Potrebni so usklajeni ukrepi za razvijanje skupnih standardov, npr. elektronske identifikacije.
Therefore, the NSPA network emphasises the importance of northernmost areasof the Baltic Sea Region in the strategy and the need to identify the added value and numerous possibilities these Northern EU regions can offer the Baltic Sea Region and Europe as a whole. A well-balanced Baltic Sea Region needs a strong North.”
Predvidevamo, da razvoj čezmejnih e-storitev vodi k odpiranju storitvenega sektorja za konkurenco med državami članicami in hkrati postane ključni dejavnik gospodarskega in socialnega povezovanja v regiji Baltskega morja.“Združenje estonskih mest
“In addition to traditional infrastructure, the development of ICT infrastructure in the region is vitally important.
Uravnotežen razvoj regije Baltskega morja ne more biti osredotočen le na osrednji del tega morja.
Coordinated measures are needed in order to develop common standards, e.g. electronic identification.
Zato omrežje NSPA poudarja pomembnost najsevernejših območij regije Baltskega morja za strategijo in potrebo po tem, da se ugotovijo dodana vrednost in številne možnosti, ki jih ta severna območja EU nudijo regiji Baltskega morja in celotni Evropi.
We do assume that development of crossborder e-services leads to opening the service sector for competition between Member States and becomes, at the same time, a key driver for economic and social integration of the Baltic Sea Region.”
Uravnotežena regija Baltskega morja potrebuje močan sever.“Severna redko poseljena območja (Northern Sparsely Populated Areas)Ta skupina kaže tesno sodelovanje med štirimi najsevernejšimi okrožji Švedske (Norrbotten, Västerbotten, Jämtland, Västernorrland), sedmimi najsevernejšimi in vzhodnimi regijami Finske (Lapland, regija Oulu, Osrednja Ostrobothnia, Kainuu, Severna Karelia, Severni Savo in Južni Savo) in severno Norveško (Finnmark, Troms in Nordland).
Association of Estonian Cities
„Fundacija Baltic Sea 2020 meni, da Strategija za regijo Baltskega morja (v nadaljevanju strategija') ponuja edinstveno priložnost
“Local and regional projects need to be encouraged to make use of different financing sources such as Jaspers, Jeremie and the Jessica funds to help the strategy become a model of how to develop a macro-region.
„Treba je spodbujati krajevne in regijske projekte, da uporabljajo različne vire financiranja, kot so skladi Jaspers, Jeremie in Jessica, kar pripomore k temu, da strategija postane model razvoja makroregije.
At least at the beginning, the role of the EU Commission should be extremely central, to get the strategy started and to secure its financing and implementation.”
Vsaj na začetku mora imeti Komisija osrednjo vlogo, da začne strategijo ter zagotovi njeno financiranje in izvajanje.“Združenje finskih krajevnih in regijskih oblasti
For that reason we stress that it is of utmost importance to incorporate the BSAP into the Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region.
Zato poudarjamo, da je zelo pomembno, da se BSAP vključi v Strategijo za regijo Baltskega morja.
Our primary argument is that the strategy is an EU initiative, which hopefully can strengthen implementation mechanisms and improve governance.
Naš glavni argument v prid temu je to, da je strategija pobuda EU, zato upamo, da lahko okrepi mehanizme za izvajanje in izboljša upravljanje.
The initiative and the actions will gain high-level political backing when adopted by the Council.
Pobuda in ukrepi bodo dobili politično podporo na visoki ravni, če jih sprejme Svet.
“We also welcome that the Baltic Sea Strategy is planned as an action-oriented strategy with precisely defined actions, expected results, identification of actors responsible for implementation and a time schedule for implementation.
„Pozdravljamo tudi to, da je strategija za regijo Baltskega morja načrtovana kot akcijsko usmerjena strategija z natančno določenimi ukrepi, pričakovanimi rezultati, opredelitvijo akterjev, odgovornih za izvedbo, in s terminskim načrtom izvedbe.
This reflects a concrete and outcome-oriented process.
V tem se kaže konkreten in v rezultate usmerjen proces.
The Öresund Committee represents the local and regional authority level with competences to add concrete substance to carry out the strategy.”
V odboru Öresund so zastopane krajevne in regijske oblasti, ki lahko vnesejo konkretno vsebino v izvajanje strategije.“Odbor Öresund, Danska
Forceful implementation of measures can successfully limit damage, especially caused by eutrophication and overfishing, but also by hazardous substances and invasive species.
Odločno izvajanje ukrepov lahko uspešno omeji škodo, ki jo povzročata zlasti evtrofikacija in čezmerni ribolov, pa tudi nevarne snovi in invazivne vrste.
Of pivotal importance is that the strategy not only clearly identifies actions, but also names responsible authorities and institutions which will have the mandate to monitor and ensure implementation.
Ključnega pomena je to, da strategija ne le jasno določi ukrepe, ampak tudi imenuje odgovorne organe in institucije, ki bodo skrbeli za nadzor in zagotavljali izvajanje ukrepov.
Only then can we strive towards reaching one of the BSAP’s main targets – “a Baltic Sea unaffected by eutrophication”.
Samo tedaj se lahko borimo za to, da bomo dosegli enega izmed poglavitnih ciljev BSAP
Baltic Sea 2020 a foundation aimed at stimulating concrete and active measures that improve the environment of the Baltic Sea
Baltic Sea 2020 – fundacija, katere cilj je spodbujanje konkretnih in aktivnih ukrepov za izboljšanje okolja Baltskega morja.
“The NSPA network welcomes the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region and would like to emphasise the role of the northern areas within the larger context of the Baltic Sea area.
„Omrežje NSPA pozdravlja strategijo EU za regijo Baltskega morja in želi poudariti vlogo severnih območij v širšem kontekstu regije Baltskega morja.
Often viewed only as remote regions with low population density, these regions are in fact important suppliers of minerals and natural resources; they are regions of a strong innovation capacity and knowledge base and are promoters of economic growth in the Baltic Sea Region.
Območja, ki jih predstavlja naša skupina, so pogosto razumljena le kot oddaljena območja z nizko gostoto prebivalstva, dejansko pa so to pomembni dobavitelji mineralov in naravnih virov; to so območja z visoko stopnjo inovacijske sposobnosti in bazo znanja ter so pobudniki gospodarske rasti v regiji Baltskega morja.
They function as an important interface between the EU and Russia and offer first-hand experiences on and solutions for the major challenges the Baltic Sea Region and Europe as a whole are now facing, such as demographic challenges, climate change and globalisation.
Delujejo kot pomembni posredniki med EU in Rusijo ter imajo lastne izkušnje in rešitve za poglavitne izzive, s katerimi se v tem trenutku srečujeta regija Baltskega morja in Evropa kot celota, na primer demografski izzivi, podnebne spremembe in globalizacija.
ACTING TOGETHER FOR THE BALTIC SEA REGION assessment of the Baltic Sea Region in order to get a clear measure of the extent of the issue.
Želi si tudi formalno oceno varnosti regije Baltskega morja, da bi dobil jasno predstavo o razsežnostih tega problema.
So many demands, such a small area: it seems everyone has claims on the sea.
Toliko zahtev, tako majhno območje: zdi se, da ima vsakdo svoje zahteve do morja.
If environmental imperatives are to be met and species and life-sustaining ecological processes and services are to be protected while the economy grows, then people need to know which areas to protect, which to set aside for wind turbines, which for shipping lanes and so on.
Če hočemo slediti zahtevam varstva okolja ter zaščititi vrste in življenjsko pomembne ekološke procese, hkrati pa zagotavljati gospodarsko rast, morajo ljudje vedeti, katera območja je treba ščititi, katera so lahko namenjena vetrnim elektrarnam, katera pomorskim plovnim potem itd.
All this involves a bird’s eye view of spatial planning – a mapping out of what should take place where.
Za to je potreben pogled s ptičje perspektive prostorskega načrtovanja – oblikovanje zemljevida, ki določa, kaj naj bi kje bilo.
Support for the development of the strategy comes from various quarters with numerous organisations, such as NGOs, those representing business and employee groups and public authorities, having an active interest in the region.
Pri Generalnem direktoratu za pomorske zadeve in ribištvo je poudarek na razvoju trajnostnih pomorskih dejavnosti v vodah EU in zunaj njih.
It has the potential to bring together both an understanding of the way each priority needs to be addressed in view of how it interlinks with others and the fact that this is best done at regional level.
Celostna pomorska politika, ki je bila uvedena leta 2007, je tesno povezana s Strategijo za regijo Baltskega morja, saj obe pri predlaganju politik upoštevata pomembnost krajev in medsebojno učinkovanje dejavnikov.
Although maritime transport accounts for over 90% of European trade and is a clean way of getting products from a to b if one considers emissions per tonnes of cargo, a look at the overall environmental impact caused by waste water, industrial cleaning agents and the effect on air quality indicates that the maritime transport industry needs to clean up its act. So the issue of clean shipping is welcomed as an umbrella for a range of measures including the use of shore-side electricity at all major Baltic ports.
Čeprav pomorski promet zajema več kot 90 odstotkov evropske trgovine in pomeni okoljsko čist prevoz proizvodov z enega kraja na drugega, če upoštevamo izpuste na tono tovora, njegov celoten vpliv na okolje zaradi odpadnih voda, industrijskih čistil in učinka na kakovost zraka dokazuje, da je treba v sektorju pomorskih prevozov narediti še marsikaj za njihovo okoljsko čistost.
The Integrated Maritime Policy, launched in 2007, neatly dovetails with the Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region as both recognise the importance of place when putting forward policies and the knock-on effect one factor has on another.
Torej je vprašanje čistega pomorskega prometa dobrodošlo kot krovni pojem za vrsto ukrepov, vključno z uporabo električne energije z obrežja v vseh večjih baltiških pristaniščih.
Sustainable fisheries
Trajnostno ribištvo
There is no question that stocks are still a matter for concern, although some are recovering. Increased cooperation among the countries around the Baltic is needed to deal with the failures of the common fisheries policy as it now stands, and to show the way forward as the policy is reformed.
Razumevanje, da področij, kot sta npr. turizem ali proizvodnja energije na morju, ne moremo obravnavati z isto metodo diskretnihelementov, je še posebej pomembno za Baltsko morje, kjer je koncentracija pomorskih dejavnosti visoka: prometna mednarodna pomorska plovna pot, krhek ekosistem, energetski viri in vplivi onesnaževal so le nekateri izmed elementov, ki so neločljivo prepleteni drug z drugim.
The understanding that areas such as tourism or offshore energy generation cannot be dealt with as distinct elements is particularly important for the Baltic Sea which has a concentration of marine activity: a busy international shipping lane, a fragile ecosystem, the site of energy resources and the impact of pollutants are just a few of the elements inextricably intertwined.
Nedvomno je stanje staležev še vedno skrb zbujajoče, čeprav se nekateri staleži povečujejo. Večji obseg sodelovanja med državami okoli Baltskega morja je nujno, da se lotijo napak trenutne skupne ribiške politike in da pokažejo, kako ukrepati v prihodnje, ko bo ta politika prenovljena.
As there is a maritime dimension to many of the issues outlined in the strategy for the region, so Maritime and Fisheries are wholeheartedly behind the idea of a broad spectrum strategy and have put forward five key areas for particular focus.
Ker imajo mnoge zadeve, navedene v regijski strategiji, pomorsko razsežnost, Generalni direktorat za pomorske zadeve in ribištvo popolnoma podpira zamisel strategije širokega spektra in je predlagal pet ključnih področij, na katera se je treba še posebej osredotočiti.
Fifteen percent of the world’s cargo is transported on the Baltic and this is set to double by 2015.
Petnajst odstotkov vsega svetovnega tovora se prevaža po Baltskem morju in ta delež naj bi se do leta 2015 še podvojil.
Freight includes hazardous material such as oil, so safety needs to be high on the agenda.
Tovorijo se tudi nevarne snovi, kot je nafta, zato mora biti varnost v ospredju pozornosti.
Maritime surveillance is also important for fisheries, border and customs control, and crime prevention.
Pomorski nadzor je pomemben tudi za ribištvo, mejni in carinski nadzor ter za preprečevanje kriminala.
The Directorate is ready to fund a pilot project providing support to crossborder cooperation and to the exchange of information between maritime surveillance systems. It also wants to see a formal safety
Direktorat je pripravljen finančno podpreti pilotski projekt, ki bo zagotavljal podporo čezmejnemu sodelovanju
Their main focus for the region, with an acceptance that the environment is a high priority, is the Baltic’s future prosperity.
Krepitev teh grozdov bo koristila gospodarstvu v regiji in bo imela pozitivne posredne učinke na EU kot celoto.
But the group flags a warning: when managing the sea it is vital to accept one cannot demand more from the sea than it can supply sustainably.
Toda hkrati opozarja: Pri upravljanju morja se je treba sprijazniti s tem, da od morja ne moremo zahtevati več, kot nam lahko da na trajnosten način.
Previously the environmental impact of each sector was considered separately.
Pred tem so bili vplivi na okolje obravnavani za vsak sektor posebej.
The WWF points out that this approach misses the big picture – that all the activities and impacts collectively need to be measured and action carried out with the understanding that each sector must be integrated into a wider picture.
WWF poudarja, da tak pristop ne da celostne podobe – da je treba preučiti vse dejavnosti in učinke skupaj in ukrepati z razumevanjem, da mora biti vsak sektor vključen v širšo podobo.
This leads to what the group feels should be a key action, maritime spatial planning, which will help illustrate how all users are, and should be, using the sea simultaneously based on the capacity and limits of the ecosystem.
Evropski ekonomsko-socialni odbor (EESO) zastopa interesne skupine, kot so NVO, organizacije delodajalcev in skupine, ki zastopajo delavce, daje jim glas in možnost, da jih slišijo večje institucije EU.
Barriers holding the region back need to be removed – the nine countries around the sea use eight different currencies; red tape such as requirements for licences block the free movement of workers and provision of services; universities and research organisations across the region could benefit from closer collaboration.
Omejitve, ki zavirajo razvoj regije, je treba odpraviti – devet držav ob morju uporablja osem valut; birokratske omejitve, kot so zahteve za pridobitev licenc, onemogočajo prosti pretok delavcev in opravljanje storitev; univerzam in raziskovalnim organizacijam v celotni regiji bi koristilo tesnejše sodelovanje.
The Services Directive, which works for a level playing field for businesses operating across borders, should be in place throughout the EU by the end of 2009 and the EESC feels its thorough implementation is instrumental to the region’s prosperity.
Direktiva o storitvah, ki se zavzema za enotne pogoje delovanja podjetij, ki poslujejo čezmejno, se mora do konca leta 2009 uvesti v vseh državah članicah in po mnenju EESO je njeno temeljito izvajanje ključnega pomena za blaginjo regije.
The Committee welcomes the strategy’s support for the reduction of red tape and the emphasis it places on greater connections between research bodies.
Odbor odobrava dejstvo, da strategija podpira zmanjšanje birokracije in poudarja pomen tesnejših povezav med raziskovalnimi organizacijami.
But there is a worry at the EESC that the strategy comes with no extra funding.
Vendar pa EESO izraža zaskrbljenost glede tega, da se za strategijo ne namenja dodatnega financiranja.
Regional funds set aside for the Baltic’s priorities are extensive, but need to be met proportionately by financing from national governments.
Regionalni skladi za prednostne cilje Baltika imajo veliko sredstev, vendar jih morajo proporcionalno pokrivati tudi sredstva nacionalnih vlad.
The Committee fears that the countries which most need EU investment will not be able to pay their share.
Odbor se boji, da tiste države, ki najbolj potrebujejo naložbe EU, ne bodo mogle plačati svojega deleža.
One of the major threats to the Baltic Sea is eutrophication – excess nutrients from agriculture and untreated sewage flowing into the water, causing algal blooms which strip the water of oxygen and kill the species in the area.
Ena izmed največjih groženj za Baltsko morje je evtrofikacija – pretirane količine hranilnih snovi iz kmetijstva in neočiščene odpadne vode, ki pritekajo v morje in povzročajo cvetenje alg, ki vodi odvzemajo kisik in povzročajo odmiranje vrst v tem območju.
The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) believes an integrated approach to managing the sea and its human uses is the only way ahead.
Svetovni sklad za naravo (WWF) meni, da je celosten pristop k morju in človeški uporabi le-tega edina mogoča pot v prihodnosti.
The problem of eutrophication lands on the desk of ministers for the environment and yet the root cause is mainly agriculture – just one example of how ministries and levels of government need to work together.
Problem evtrofikacije pristane na mizah ministrov za okolje, čeprav je poglavitni vzrok zanj zlasti kmetijstvo – to je le en primer, ki dokazuje nujnost sodelovanja ministrstev in različnih ravni oblasti.
