“…Citizens are latent stakeholders (Eythórson, 2003). Contrary to the definitive stakeholders, they score low on legitimacy and power but do better on pushing forward the urgency of an issue (Mikalsen et al, 2001;Mitchell, 1997).…”

Institutional Adaptation of Water Resource Infrastructures to Climate Change in Eastern Ontario

2006

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Abstract. Institutional barriers and bridges to local climate change impacts adaptation affecting small rural municipalities and Conservation Authorities (CAs are watershed agencies) in Eastern Ontario (Canada) are examined, and elements of a community-based adaptation strategy related to water infrastructures are proposed as a case-study in community adaptation to climate change. No general water scarcity is expected for the region even under unusually dry weather scenarios. Localized quantity and quality problems are likely to occur especially in groundwater recharge areas. Some existing institutions can be relied on by municipalities to build an effective adaptation strategy based on a watershed/region perspective, on their credibility, and on their expertise. Windows of opportunity or framing issues are offered at the provincial level, the most relevant one in a federal state, by municipal emergency plan requirements and pending watershed source water protection legislation. Voluntary and soon to be mandated climate change mitigation programs at the federal level are other ones.

“…The position of groups with power but without legitimate claim and urgent demands depends on the extent they are willing or able to use their power (dormant stakeholders). They are stakeholders in reserve and could be activated by the actual use of power or by a threat to use it [11]. Groups with urgent claims but lacking power and legitimacy are irksome but not dangerous (demanding stakeholders) [10].…”

“…Groups with urgent claims but lacking power and legitimacy are irksome but not dangerous (demanding stakeholders) [10]. The expectant stakeholders are those who possess two of the three attributes and they are in a more active relationship with the company [11]. Groups and organizations with legitimacy and power like government agencies have to be taken into account and for that reason they are dominant stakeholders [11].…”

-The paper examines Estonia's maritime sector from the point of view of its stakeholders and their strategic choices regarding several critical issues. Business activities of maritime sector are dependent on public services and regulations on safety, security related services and regulations, environmental conditions related issues, and the sulphur emission regulation which will be introduced from 2015, as the most recent example. One impact of this dependence is that a big number of different stakeholders are involved and would like to see their values and preferences are brought into governance process. The paper provides a structured overview of these stakeholders and their position in governance issues.
