INTRODUCTION The ASEAN-SEAFDEC Regional Technical Consultation (RTC) on Information Gathering for Inland Capture Fisheries in ASEAN Countries was organized by the SEAFDEC Marine Fishery Resources Development and Management Department (MFRDMD) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from 4 to 6 August 2003. The Consultation was organized as part of the project on “Information Gathering for Inland Capture Fisheries in ASEAN Countries” under the Special 5-year Program. The Project aims to assist the Member Countries in the implementation of the Resolution and Plan of action on Sustainable Fisheries for Food Security for the ASEAN region adopted at the 2001 Millennium Conference on “Fish for the People”. The Consultation was attended by delegates from the ASEAN and SEAFDEC Member Countries namely Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam. The Consultation was also attended by resource persons and observers from Cambodia, Malaysia and Thailand as well as representatives from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the Mekong River Commission (MRC) and SEAFDEC. The list of participants appears as Annex 1. The objectives of the Consultation were to review current status of information on inland capture fisheries in the ASEAN Member Countries, identify strategies to strengthen future collection and compilation of information to support planning and management of inland fisheries resources, and finalize plan and arrangement for the project at both regional and national levels. II. OPENING CEREMONY The meeting was welcomed and officially opened by Chief of MFRDMD, Mr. Ibrahim Saleh. The full text of Opening remark is outlined in Annex 2. III. ADOPTION OF THE AGENDA The meeting adopted the Provisional Agenda and Time Table that appear in Annex 3. 1 IV. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS 1.0 REVIEW OF CURRENT INFORMATION ON INLAND CAPTURE FISHERIES IN THE ASEAN MEMBER COUNTRIES While noting the review of information on inland capture fisheries in the ASEAN Member Countries as presented by MFRDMD (Annex 4), the RTC made the following recommendations: • There is existing available information related to inland capture fisheries such as fish taxonomy, ecology, and fishery management. However, much of the information is only available as grey literature either in English or in riparian languages of the Lower Mekong Basin (LMB) countries. MFRDMD is requested to compile and make available the information for regional reference; • With regard to information on fishery resources, focus should not only be given to fish species but other aquatic organisms such as shrimps, mollusks, frogs, and insects, which are generally used for consumption and may seasonally be more important than fish for protein supply; and • With respect to species coverage for information gathering, all aquatic species either freshwater, brackish water and marine that are harvested in inland water bodies should be covered including catadromous and anadromous species. 2.0 EXPERIENCE PAPERS ON INFORMATION REQUIREMENT AND ITS GATHERING TO SUPPORT MANAGEMENT OF INLAND FISHERIES RESOURCES The RTC took note of the presented experiences on the topic from Cambodia (Annex 5), Thailand (Annex 6), Malaysia (Annex 7), and RAP/FAO (Annex 8) and made the following conclusion and recommendations reflecting the lessons learned from the experiences: • Considering the dynamic and often small-scale nature of inland fisheries in various habitats, involvement of fishers and their communities under co­ management approach is found essential for effective management of small- scale inland fisheries; • Under the adaptive co-management approach, government intervention should focus on protection of major habitats and spawning areas and dialogue between the government and community should be promoted; and • Purpose of information gathering should be clearly defined whether for management of fisheries, habitat protection or integrated water resources use. 2.1 Stock Enhancement for Reservoir Fisheries (Annex 5) • In response to the increasing impacts of over-fishing, stock enhancement for reservoir fisheries was identified as a viable strategy to tackle the problem; 2 • To ensure successful implementation of stock enhancement exercises, the following consideration should be taken into account: ○ Effective monitoring and evaluation mechanism are essential to assess their impacts to the resources, environment and livelihoods of fishers; ○ Target only on indigenous species to avoid biodiversity impact and eco­ system changes in the water bodies; and ○ Carrying capacity should be studied in future research undertaking for stocking purposes. • Awareness building for concerned communities should be promoted to ensure their cooperation for sustainable use of the resources. 2.2 Flood Plains and Riverine Systems (Annex 6) • Since productivity and fishing practices of flood plains and riverine systems are very much affected by flood regime, efforts should be exerted to acquire understanding on the dynamics between flood, flood timing, duration and area of inundation in relation to fish production; • Considering the relation between fisheries production and non-fisheries factors, an integrated management approach should be adopted that focuses on management of aquatic habitats in preference to management of fishery resources themselves i.e. environmental management rather than focusing only on fisheries management with catch and effort restriction; • For cost-effectiveness, timing and location of data gathering should be considered in data collection in large areas. This can be achieved by various methodologies

    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 413 1st International Conference on Law, Governance and Islamic Society (ICOLGIS 2019) How Effective is the Environmental Law for the Conservation of the Leuser Ecosystem Area in Indonesia? Dede Suhendra1, Azhari Yahya2*, Faisal2, Suhaimi2, Syarifuddin2 1Faculty of Law, Universitas Syiah Kuala, Banda Aceh, Indonesia 2Faculty of Law, Universitas Syiah Kuala, Banda Aceh, Indonesia *Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The article aimed to investigate the policies in the environmental law in Indonesia and its effectiveness for the Leuser ecosystem area. The method used in this research was a normative and empirical method through legal, comparative, and historical approach. The data were analyzed based on descriptive analysis through inductive and deductive interpretation. The results showed that the environmental law in Indonesia had undergone significant progress in many aspects, one of which was in a reinforcement of criminal and private law and the implementation of strict liability principle. In addition, the law employs a biocentrism principle aiming to improve people's lives by considering human as the center (anthropocentrism) to a holistic position; that is, all elements are related. However, the environmental law has not successfully been implemented due to the disputes between policymakers in the central and local governments, regarding development and environment, ecology and economy. Moreover, it is because the strict liability principle has not been considered as the foundation for law enforcement yet.

Brief history of the botanical exploration in the Gunung Leuser Natural Park and vicinity, North Sumatra With itineraries and reports of the exploration tours by Van Steenis (1937) and De Wilde & Duyfjes (1972-1991) W.J.J.O. de Wilde & B.E.E. Duyfjes Rijksherbarium / Hortus Botanicus, POB 9514, NL-2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands Summary A concise history of the botanical collecting and abbreviated reports of the exploration tours by C.G.G.J. van Steenis and De Wilde & Duyfjes in the Gunung Leuser Park and vicinity, northern Sumatra (mainly Aceh Province) is given. This shows that essential areas of the Park, e.g. at the West side, are still botani- cally unknown. The remarkable achievements in field work by Van Steenis arerecorded. The detailed descrip- tions of the itineraries give a good impression of the constitution and botanical conditions of the terrains of the interior and will be useful for the logistics of future exploration efforts in this difficult and unsurveyable area. The amount of botanical collecting done in the various vegetation types traversed is indicated. The ac- counts should be consulted in conjunction with the outline on the vegetation of the Park as is also present- ed by the authors in the Leuser Book (C. van Schaik et al., in prep.). Introduction Park with surface of km 2 The Gunung Leuser a area some 10,000 (Van Strien, 1978) is among the largest tropical rain forest nature reserves in Indonesia, and a refuge for several very rare species of large animals menaced with extinction, e.

  • Developing Oil Palm Plantation from Degraded Land on Mineral Soil
    Developing oil palm plantation from degraded land on mineral soil Follow up of environmental parameters: 2009 - 2011 Output30/BACP By Denis Ruysschaert, Ian Singleton, Serge Wich, Gunung Gea, Mistar, Nuzuar, Riswan Zen, Bas van Balen, Adji Darsoyo. September 2011 1 Introduction – development of oil palm plantations on degraded land The Pilot Study (PS) on Sustainable Palm Oil is located in the village of Lamie, Nagan Raya District, Aceh Province, Indonesia. The Pilot Study aims to showcase that it is possible to develop RSPO standard oil palm plantations with smallholders, on mineral soils with degraded vegetation, instead of continuing the destruction of forests to establish oil palm plantations at the large scale. The project also seeks to operate in the least environmentally damaging and biodiversity friendly manner possible, to limit the impact of oil palm plantation on these degraded areas, and on surrounding areas, which includes the precious peatswamp forests of Tripa, an integral part of the biodiversity rich Leuser Ecosystem. As such, all operations of the pilot study have been carried out following the procedures and methods of organic farming. Chemical fertilizers and chemical pesticides are forbidden and the farmers use only bio-pesticides and organic fertilizers. These pesticides and organic fertilizers are developed and applied by the farmers themselves. The farmers have been trained and supported to do so. It must be noted, however, that PT Socfindo, who supplied the original seedlings for the project, developed the seedlings in the conventional “non-organic” manner. The decision to develop the Pilot Study on areas with degraded vegetation first of all aims at providing an example to palm oil companies that it is technically possible to develop degraded land for palm oil production, instead of clearing huge areas of forested land.

  • SUMATRA BIRD REPORT Compiled by DA. Holmes Summary All New Records of Sumatran Birds Collected by Various Observers Over The
    KUKILA 8: 9 - 56 SUMATRA BIRD REPORT Compiled by DA. Holmes Summary All new records of Sumatran birds collected by various observers over the period from 1987 to 1995 that add significantly to the status or distribution as given in the Sumatran checklist (van Marle & Voous 1988) are described. This is the second regional (island) report published by Kukila, the first covering Sulawesi in 1990. Introduction This paper presents the more significant records compiled from the observations submitted by many ornithologists who have visited or resided in the mainland of Sumatra in recent years. The majority of the records post-date those submitted for the compilation of the Sumatran checklist in the BOU Check-list series (van Marle & Voous 1988), although some corrections to that checklist are also included. The cut-off date for this report is the end of 1995, Thus effectively the report covers the period 1987-1995, although it will be seen that several records pre-date this. All records are included that add significant information on status and distribution to that provided in van Marle & Voous. For example, several species have now been recorded breeding in Sumatra for the first time, and there are many new provincial and distributional records. A first Sumatran record is presented for Northern Pintail (scientific names are provided in the systematic section), while the following species are now included on the Sumatran list based on records from the East Sumatran islands published elsewhere: Aleutian Tern, Moustached Hawk-cuckoo, Common Tailorbird and Black Drongo. Numerous papers and reports on Sumatran birds have appeared since the publication of van Marle & Voous, and reference will be found to several in the accompanying report.

Labadie Co-Advisor: Timothy K. Gates Ryan T. Bailey Charles W. Anderson Copyright by Faizal Immaddudin Wira Rohmat 2019 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT MACHINE LEARNING METHODS TO FACILITATE OPTIMAL WATER ALLOCATION AND MANAGEMENT IN IRRIGATED RIVER BASINS TO COMPLY WITH WATER LAW The sustainability issues facing irrigated river basins are intensified by legal and institutional regulations imposed on the hydrologic system. Although solutions that would boost water savings and quality might prove to be feasible, such imposed institutional constraints could veto their implementation, rendering them legally ineffectual. The problems of basin-scale irrigation water management in a legally-constrained system are exemplified in the central alluvial valley of the Lower Arkansas River Basin (LARB) in Colorado, USA, and in the Tripa River Basin in Indonesia. In the LARB, water and land best management practices (BMPs) have been proposed to enhance the environment, conserve water, and boost productivity; however, the legal feasibility of their implementation in the basin hinder BMP adoption. In the Tripa river basin, the rapid growth of water demand pushes the proposal of new reservoir construction. However, inadequate water availability and the lack of water law enforcement requires the basin to seek water from adjacent basins, thereby raising legal and economic feasibility issues.
