    Faleata East - Upolu

    Community Integrated Management Plan Faleata East - Upolu Implementation Guidelines 2018 COMMUNITY INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT PLAN IMPLEMENTATION GUIDELINES Foreword It is with great pleasure that I present the new Community Integrated Management (CIM) Plans, formerly known as Coastal Infrastructure Management (CIM) Plans. The revised CIM Plans recognizes the change in approach since the first set of fifteen CIM Plans were developed from 2002-2003 under the World Bank funded Infrastructure Asset Management Project (IAMP) , and from 2004-2007 for the remaining 26 districts, under the Samoa Infrastructure Asset Management (SIAM) Project. With a broader geographic scope well beyond the coastal environment, the revised CIM Plans now cover all areas from the ridge-to-reef, and includes the thematic areas of not only infrastructure, but also the environment and biological resources, as well as livelihood sources and governance. The CIM Strategy, from which the CIM Plans were derived from, was revised in August 2015 to reflect the new expanded approach and it emphasizes the whole of government approach for planning and implementation, taking into consideration an integrated ecosystem based adaptation approach and the ridge to reef concept. The timeframe for implementation and review has also expanded from five years to ten years as most of the solutions proposed in the CIM Plan may take several years to realize. The CIM Plans is envisaged as the blueprint for climate change interventions across all development sectors – reflecting the programmatic approach to climate resilience adaptation taken by the Government of Samoa. The proposed interventions outlined in the CIM Plans are also linked to the Strategy for the Development of Samoa 2016/17 – 2019/20 and the relevant ministry sector plans.

The mostabundant waders were Pacific Golden Plovers Pluvialisfulva. This speciesbenefits from the rapidly changinglandscape, as primary rain forestis turnedinto cultivatedland. 2000 individualsof P. fulva are makinguse of thesetropical islands as their non-breedingarea. The major- ity, 800-1000, is concentratedon the islandof Upolu, especiallywithin the urbanenvirons of Apia. Pacific GoldenPlovers have showna considerablechange in behaviourduring the last few yearsby makinguse of smallgarden lawns. Other species wintering in or migratingthrough the Samoanislands are Wandering Tattler Heteroscelusincanus, Ruddy Tumstone Arenaria interpres,and Pectoral Sandpiper Calidris melanotos. During earlieryears (1975-1998), Bristle-thighedCurlew Numenius tahitiensis and Lesser Yellowlegs Tringafiavipes were also recorded. INTRODUCTION fore data were collectedin a wide rangeof locationscover- ing all major habitatsand for every time of the year. The Polynesianislands are known as non-breeding areas for From 2 to 21 March 1999 and from 22 March to 9 April arctic waders(Mayr 1945, Watling 1982, Pratt et al. 1987). 2000, the numbersof migratoryshorebirds were counted on Despiteits remotelocation (e.g. about9,000 km from wader the islandsof Upolu, Savai'i and Nu'utele (Figure 2).
