EXECUTIVE SUMMARY - UNESCO World Heritage

−Activity II.4.1: Analyze existing management system and threats to each
individual area;
−Activity II.4.2: Develop detailed regulatory mechanisms and management
guidelines for controlling negative impacts to outstanding natural values.
Output II4: Effective management checked by long-term monitoring
− Activity II.4.1**: Propose necessary changes in conservation of the most
vulnerable ecosystems, rare and endangered species of flora and fauna and
habitats;
− Activity II.4.2*: Establish permanent plots for annual qualitative and
quantitative recording of vegetation to detect early signs of changes.
Objective III: Promoting sustainable land resources management in buffer zones and
connecting ecological corridors of the serial property
Output III.1: Implementation of the buffer zoning and connecting corridors
systems and long-term monitoring of their effectiveness
− Activity III.1.1**: Propose ecological corridors connecting the serial
nomination properties based on the system of protective and special purposes
forests, the National ECONET of the Slovak Republic, the system of
Natura 2000 areas in the Slovak Republic, as well as the Law of Ukraine “On
establishing of the Ukrainian national ecological network” and the proposed
principles of ECONET in Ukraine;
− Activity III.1.2***: Area-designate the connecting corridors on individual
forest stands level based on the Map Annex Nr. 6, forest maps and the
information that will become available through the implementation of the
PINMATRA project 4 , resulting into a polygon map of primeval forests in the
Ukraine.
− Activity III.1.3**: Leaning on national ECONETs, propose the optimal
management for connecting corridors on forest stands level, most preferably
non-intervention regime and close-to-nature forestry management in the other
cases; in limit cases, initiate expropriation process offset by corresponding
