Gimnocephalus schraetser) have no-one protected
status in the Republic of Moldova. Also were
identified 2 species (Acipenster rutenus and
Acipenster nudiventri) falling under Annex V of the
Council Directive 92/43/EEC, but the second species
has no one of any protected status in country.
The comparative analysis demonstrates the
need to review the rarity status of the mentioned fish
species and/or their inclusion in the Red Book of
Moldova, in other legislation acts and/or performing
other actions to perpetuate their best. These findings
are in full compliance with existing legal basis of the
Republic of Moldova: Art. 9, 16, 17 and 18 of the
Law on the Red Book of Moldova (No. 325-XVI
from 15. 12. 2005); The Common Action Plan
Republic of Moldova – European Union, 2005-2007;
and The Program "Rethink of Moldova. Priorities for
medium term development".
Comparative analysis of the state and how to
protect rare and vulnerable species of fish confirmed
the importance of measures taken and existing needs
in Moldova in this section. Increasing vulnerability a
ichthyofauna species confirmed by increasing number
of introduced species in the Red Book of Moldova,
the second edition of. Proposals have already been
developed [7] introducing other four species in the
next edition (III) of the Red Book. They are supposed
to be: Tench - Tinca tinca (L), Spirlin - Alburnoides
bipunctatus rossicus (Berg), Crucian Carp -
Carassius Carassius (L.), Wels catfish - Silurus
glanis (L.).
3.2. Evaluation and formation standards database
in „PISCES”
In the compartment "Pisces", relative to other
domains there are few sets of standards, gained
worldwide by international organizations - ISO
(International Standardisation Organisation) and IEC
(International Electrotechnical Commission) and at
the European level - CEN (European Committee for
Standardization), CENELEC (European
Electrotechnical Committee for Standardization) and
ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards
Institute) [17.18].
3.2.1. International standards
In accordance with electronic information
provided by the Organization ISO [17], in querying
104
for section "Fish" can be found 17 ISO standards and
one in elaboration and for section "Fishing and fish
breeding" another 13 ISO standards. Meanwhile at
the European level [18] for the section "Fish" it was
highlighted 12 EN standards, from which 8 ISO
standards taken by EN (European Normatives)
organization.
3.2.2. Standards of the Republic of Moldova
The Republic of Moldova doesn’t have in action
ISO and EN standards. But in Catalogue of normative
documents in standardization of the Republic of
Moldova [19.20] in 65.150 section “Fishing and fish
farming” were not identified standards in use, and in
section 67.120.30 “Fish and fish products” are in
force 109 GOST standards (standards of Russia
adopted as national). It is clear the need of some
decisions and activities in developing regulations and
standards in the relevant field.
4. Conclusions
Republic of Moldova dispose a significant base
of legislative-normative acts in ichthyofauna domain.
The legal regulation of ichthyofauna conservation is
in continuous development, already having a solid
theoretical and practical basis.
In the last 4-5 years it is obvious trend and
efforts for significant changing of the legislativenormative
acts of the Republic of Moldova by
applying of the mechanism to their harmonizing to
the requirements of international legislation and
normative, especially, to the European requirements.
In connection with the increasing vulnerability
of species further efforts are needed for continuous
development of legislative basis regarding the
habitats protection of vulnerable species of fish and
protection of natural complexes in general, as well as
creation a ecological housing and application of
stringent measures to redress the environmental
status.
Comparative analysis of the state and protection
mode of rare and vulnerable fish species has
confirmed the importance of measures taken and
existing needs in the Republic of Moldova in this
domain.
Additional measures are needed on improving
the mechanism and instruments to ensure optimal
