This document summarizes recent activities of the HELCOM Sturgeon Project Group (PG), which has held two meetings since the HABITAT 15/2013 meeting focusing on developing a future project proposal. A third is planned to be held in Vilnius to finalize a full scale project proposal. Action required The Meeting is invited to take note of and discuss the HELCOM Joint Baltic Sea sturgeon rehabilitation development. Page 1 of 3 HABITAT 16-2014, 6-2 The HELCOM Joint Baltic Sea sturgeon rehabilitation development (2013– 2014) In 1996, HELCOM created a first Project Group (PG) to help coordinate the efforts for rehabilitation of Baltic Sea sturgeon in Germany and in Poland. The actual sturgeon rehabilitation PG has the goal to re-establish viable natural populations of Baltic Sea sturgeon (Acipenser oxyrinchus). In 2013, EUSBSR granted funding to start work on a larger scale re- introduction project, which would address the issue through mutual cooperation of nature conservation and fisheries. Project partners from Germany, Poland, Denmark, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Russia have been working on drafting a project proposal for further financing. The project kicked-off with a workshop held in Warsaw, 18–20 September 2013 and continued with a workshop in Berlin, 16–19 January 2014. A third, final, meeting will take place in Vilnius. The Warsaw workshop (18–20 September 2013) focused on the operational mechanisms of the group and started the discussions on the further project plans. The participants decided that Seed Money contribution for working hours would be pooled to hire an assistant at HELCOM for the project duration. The partners also agreed to use simple majority when dealing with matters at the workshops or via e-mail. Partners that will not comment within deadlines or at meetings will be considered to implicitly agree with the majority of active/present partners. The Workshop also discussed the main outline of the Implementation Project. The Project comprises 5 main deliverables to be worked on over a 5-6 years timespan: 1- Information campaign targeted at recreational/commercial fisheries (a sociological institute could be partner to develop this point) 2- Production of the broodstock for release 3- Development of a HELCOM Baltic Sturgeon Action Plan 4- Establishment of sturgeon as an indicator species for conservation 5- Communication strategy. The Berlin workshop (16–19 January 2014) was devoted to defining the Implementation Project, including developing a project proposal that can be used by partners to apply for national co-financing. The main aim of the project will be the restoration of a viable population of Baltic sturgeon and the timeline of the project should be between 2015 and 2020. The PG decided to address a number of key issues (core conservation actions): - Establishment of an Action Plan for Baltic sturgeon - Reintroduction of Baltic sturgeon - Decrease of fishing related mortality. The partners of this project will tentatively be: - IGB Berlin (Germany) – Public body - Institute of fisheries M-V (Germany) – Public body - Landgesellschaft (Germany) – Public body and Coordinating beneficiary - Wildlife Estonia (Estonia) - NGO - Polish inland fisheries institute (Poland) – Public body Page 2 of 3 HABITAT 16-2014, 6-2 - Environmental development association (Latvia) - NGO - Fisheries services under the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Lithuania (Lithuania) – Public body - Natural history museum of Denmark (Denmark) – Public body - University of Copenhagen (Denmark) – Public body - Kaliningrad State Technical University (Russian Federation) – Public body - HELCOM – Public body. And potentially also: - The Swedish national museum (Sweden) – Public body - A Sociological research institute – Germany. The areas where conservation actions (mainly fish stocking) will take place are: - Germany – Odra river, Szczecin lagoon (together with Poland) - Poland – Vistula river, Angrapa river (together with Russia), Odra river (together with Germany) - Russian Federation – Pregola river, Vistula lagoon (together with Poland), Curonian lagoon (together with Lithuania) decrease of fishing mortality and monitoring of migration only - Lithuania – Neman river, Curonian lagoon - Latvia – Daugava river - Estonia – Narva river. Considerable time was devoted to discuss potential funding instruments, in particular the new programme under EU LIFE+, but the participants agreed to take a final decision at a later date. The planned Vilnius workshop (5-8 May 2014) is intended to finalize the work on the full scale project proposal. During this meeting a final decision should be made on the funding instrument that the PG intends to apply to. Also, the PG should finalize its work plan by combining all relevant drafts submitted in advance by project partners. Ideally, the third and final workshop should deliver a clear working draft of the application for the Implementation Project. Page 3 of 3 .

  • Description of the Pregolya Case Study Site
    SOILS2SEA DELIVERABLE NO. 1.2 Requirements Report 2SEA Reducing nutrient loadings from agricultural soils to the Baltic Sea via groundwater and streams Soils2Sea June 2014 Requirements Report 3.6 Pregolya This will not be a full case study, but can be understood as part of WP 6.4. 3.6.1 Description All the main water systems of the Kaliningrad Oblast are transboundary. These are the coastal waters of the Baltic Sea, the Vistula Lagoon catchment and the Curonian Lagoon catchment. The Vistula Lagoon is classified as a low salinity non-tidal estuarine lagoon (Chubarenko, Margonski, 2008) and is a transboundary (Andrulewicz et. al., 1994) water body itself (Fig- ure 3-15). Its volume and area equal 2.3 km3 and 838 km2 respectively, 64% of the lagoon volume (1.47 km3) and 56% (472.5 km2) of the lagoon water area belong to Kaliningrad Oblast (the Russian Federation), and the rest belongs to Poland (Solovjev, 1971). Since the Baltiysk Strait, as a single inlet connecting the lagoon with the Baltic Sea, is situated on the Russian territory, the Kaliningrad Oblast is formally responsible for the quality of waters coming into the Baltic Sea from the lagoon (Chubarenko, 2008). The biggest part (64% of the lagoon catchment) is formed by the transboundary basins of Lyna-Lava and Angrapa-Wangorapa rivers (both are 56% of the lagoon catchment) and a catchment of the main stream of Pregolya passing across the Kaliningrad Oblast (Figure 3- 17). A small part of the lagoon basin (90 km2 or 0.4%) belongs to the catchment of Vishtynets Lake in Lithuania.

The study is based on a spatial analysis, and is built on the currently known information, drawn from prewar archives, publications, research from the second half of the 20th century, and on the results of field surveys conducted by the author. GIS-based techniques were applied. The archaeological sites from the Roman Period located on the eastern border of Dollkeim-Kovrovo Culture in the valleys of the River Pregolja and the River Dejma are the focus of attention. In order to carry out a comparative analysis, information on the burial grounds of the ‘cultural core’ on the Samland Peninsula is used. The spatial layout of the burial grounds and settlements is analysed. As a result, a pattern for the spatial evolution of Dollkeim-Kovrovo culture in the Roman Period and the testing of the hypothesis of the existence of ‘contact zones’ in the West Balt cultural circle are proposed for consideration. Key words: southeast Baltic region, West Balt cultural circle, Roman Period, Dollkeim-Kovrovo/Sambian-Natangian culture, River Pregolja valley, landscape analysis, geoinformation systems.

They will help us to introduce a strategic ap- proach and thereby exercise more complex and coordinated management in the river basins. This will help to avoid accidental investments and limit- ing ourselves to just temporary and immediate actions. In Poland, we should change the way of thinking about flood safety. There may always come a cataclysm bigger than the one we anticipated. We must think and act towards managing the whole process of flood. Our obligation is to educate the citizens in flood protection; hence, we created a platform offering the opportunity to share information between experts who are involved in water management in Poland and residents of the territories threatened by a flood.

While continuing researches on ancient cartography the publication is aimed at viewing maps of Li- thuania Minor and Prussia in the perspective of historical events, with a special emphasis on most important historical events as well as cartography development moments. The method used is analysis of different maps, by different authors, found in cartographical archives. The article presents the authors and designers 37 maps of Li- thuania Minor and Prussia and discusses map characteristics. It also provides links that are helpful for the readers interested in a more detailed studies of specific maps. Summarizing research results the authors conclude that ancient maps where Lithuania Minor is marked are true historical witnesses helping to understand long and complicated formation process of Lithuania Minor and the state of Lithuania; however the analysis alone is insufficient to fully reveal its historic concept. Keywords: Prussia, Lithuania Minor, lietuvininkai, historical destiny, old maps, language maps, ethnic land, etno- graphic areas.
