High Seas Drift Net Enforcement The U.S. Coast Guard, the Canadian Air Force, and Fisheries and Oceans Canada joined forces, resuming dedicated HSDN patrol flights in the North Pacific in April. The joint efforts control illegal, unregulated and unreported (IUU) fishing in the North Pacific Ocean and will continue through the summer. The primary monitoring platforms are long-range search aircraft including Air Station Kodiak HC- 130s and Canadian Air Force CP140 Auroras. These fixed winged aircraft carry U.S. and Canadian enforcement officials Figure 1. High Seas Drift Net Aircraft Search Area who identify and report suspected illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessels for subsequent interdiction by the U.S. Coast Guard’s Pacific Area cutters. Russia’s Federal Border Service and Japan’s Maritime Safety Agency also assist in the interdiction efforts. This multinational enforcement operation has served as a model of international cooperation for protecting fish stocks in the North Pacific. The annual detection and enforcement operation has helped to reduce IUU fish harvesting in international waters of the North Pacific significantly since the mid-1990s. So far during the 2005 operation, three vessels have been detected and identified fitting the profile of high seas driftnet operations, but not were not observed actively engaged in fishing. Fishing with a high seas drift net is just one form of IUU fishing. Vessels suspected of participating in IUU fishing Presumed Squid HSDN Vessel Name Thought To Be: Zhuu Shan were identified and reported for subsequent interdiction by appropriate agencies. For example, the patrols detected several vessels loitering just outside the Russian EEZ that are now suspected of laundering fish taken illegally from Russian waters. For the reporting period, the following details apply: • Canadian Coast Guard flew 17 sorties totaling 180 hours. • U.S. Coast Guard HC-130’s flew 3 sorties totaling 18 hours. • 2 Suspect Vessels Detected 1 II. US/Russian Maritime Boundary Line (MBL) Enforcement Although the Russian Pollock season in the area adjacent to the MBL opened in mid-May, very little activity has occurred so far this year. Light fishing activity limited the need for cutter coverage for most of the reporting period, and Coast Guard enforcement resources detected no incursions. Figure 2 provides a plot of foreign fishing vessel activity near the MBL. Figure 3 shows the trend in historic fishing effort along the MBL. For the reporting period, the following details apply: Figure 2. 13 MAY 05 MBL Scatter Plot of Vessels Sighted by HC-130’s • Coast Guard HC-130’s flew 3 sorties totaling 22 hours. • Coast Guard WHEC/WMECs spent 9 days patrolling the MBL.

Donut Hole No fishing vessel activity was detected in the Donut Hole during the reporting period. The Seventeenth District has received no notices for proposed trial fishing for the remainder of 2005. IV. Dixon Entrance The Seventeenth Coast Guard District participated in a U.S.-Canada border enforcement meeting last month in Prince Rupert, British Columbia. This meeting is held annually as part of the 1990 US-CA fisheries enforcement agreement to address enforcement issues along the disputed boundary area in Dixon Entrance. Discussions at this working level meeting included: review of 2004 season, projected fisheries openings and closures, expected patrol effort, customs issues, counter drug enforcement issues, and maritime transportation security. Salmon fishing in this area by Canadian fishermen is expected to be limited again this year with some minor effort expected from mid-July through early August. V. Steller Sea Lions and Critical Habitat Enforcement The Coast Guard continues to assist NMFS’s in management activities to insure that current groundfish fisheries are not adversely affecting Steller Sea Lions or impeding their recovery. The Coast Guard does this through continued patrols of Steller Sea Lion Critical Habitat Areas, monitoring the western population of rookeries and haulouts starting at Cape St Elias and extending out the Aleutian Chain and into the Bering Sea. Cutters logged 478 monitoring hours, and aircraft patrolled 28 hours in support of this mission. The USCGC Mustang detected the S/V Endurance in the Marmot Island No-Transit area. The Mustang subsequently boarded the vessel and issued a violation. 3 VI. CGD17 Commercial Fishing Vessel Boarding Statistics The following charts show boarding and fishery violation trends. Violations during the reporting-period, overall remained relatively low with most being minor. Figure 4. Fisheries Boardings Figure 5.

All nine of the fisheries violations were IFQ related and are discussed in the next section. There were seven voyage terminations for safety violations. Five of the voyage terminations involved insufficient survival craft on-board. One termination was for failure to carry sufficient fire extinguishers and one was for insufficient survival suits. Several vessels were also issued violation notices and warnings for minor safety discrepancies. Appendices A and B contain a complete list of boardings and violations for the reporting period. VII. IFQ At-Sea/Dockside Enforcement The 2005 IFQ season continued without significant incidents. All nine of the fisheries violations this period were IFQ-related (six at-sea and three dockside).

  • Armies and Public Security Missions Juan Rial
    Armies and Public Security Missions Juan Rial / RESDAL Approach. Introduction Over the past decade various Latin American countries have developed reflec- 1 tions and experiences that are relevant to the missions of armies in the context of the current and future challenges confronting the security and defence sectors. This has included the need to tackle complex themes related to characteristics of conflicts that are under study not just in this region but across the world, such as violence and citizen insecurity or the increased risks posed by natural disasters, issues that among other things require doctrines and plans to be updated. This supposes the study and analysis of tendencies, the elaboration of roadmaps, and dialogue with the distinct strands of domestic stakeholders. As a result of a project directed by RESDAL and funded by the Canadian Global Peace and Security Fund, this paper seeks to contribute to the process of trans- formation set in motion by the Colombian Army, promoting a transmission of experiences from the Latin American region at a time when the current Colom- bian experience – a 21st century post-conflict process - is put into the spotlight. Defi nitions, Myths and Realities National defence is understood to concern the political and military activities 2Defence developed by modern states to avoid or to repel military attacks that other states could eventually carry out.1 A more up-to-date concept includes a re- sponse to the threats provided by non-state actors, such as, for example, ter- rorist groups, companies, etc., generally transnational in nature, that resort to illegal practices.
