Steps Forward<br />

• The joint work <strong>IUCN</strong>, <strong>Sakhalin</strong> Energy <strong>and</strong> WGWAP is very efficient<br />

<strong>and</strong> positive <strong>and</strong> should serve as an example of the bridge between<br />

conservation <strong>and</strong> development needs<br />

• The experienced gained should be considered as a BAP <strong>and</strong> used in<br />

other projects worldwide<br />

• Conservation requires an open dialog with various stakeholders<br />

• Need of information about the activities of other operators<br />

• Lack of information about other offshore activities (non-related to<br />

oil&gas exploration)<br />

• Lack of information about potential impacts along the migration routes<br />

<strong>and</strong> at the breading grounds<br />

• A lot of gaps in our knowledge about <strong>Gray</strong> whales<br />

• A broad cooperation is essential within the <strong>Gray</strong> whale range<br />

• International-based mechanism of management is required<br />
