“…Las PSSA, tal como lo expresa Spadi (2000) y OMI (2006), son un concepto de medidas preventivas establecido por OMI para mitigar los efectos adversos producto de la interacción entre los buques y el medioambiente. Dicho concepto se encuentra enmarcado dentro del marco legal de las medidas protectoras definidas en Marpol 73/78 (Blanco-Bazán, 1996;Roberts, Tsamenyi, Workman y Johnson, 2005), las cuales se enmarcan en concordancia con las directrices sobre enrutamiento y la cooperación que debe existir entre estados para su desarrollo (IMO, 2003).…”

Estudios en el Gran Caribe respecto al tráfico marítimo internacional de buques muestra un incremento en al menos el doble del existente hoy. Esto amenaza los ecosistemas en el área debido a la expansión del Canal de Panamá y el posible Canal de Nicaragua; el Área Marina Protegida (AMP) Seaflower, en el caribe insular colombiano, está siendo afectada por este incremento. La presente revisión bibliográfica crítica, busca describir y analizar los problemas que el AMP está enfrentando hoy producto del tráfico marítimo tales como el oleaje de estela y el ruido submarino con el propósito de proponer y recomendar algunas medidas de gestión y gobernanza, a partir del enfoque de Gestión Basado en los Ecosistemas (EBM, por sus siglas en inglés). El objetivo es analizar cómo afrontar los problemas relacionados con la industria marítima, basados en las medidas de protección establecidas por la Organización Marítima Mundial (OMI) para salvaguardar la seguridad en la navegación y garantizando la sostenibilidad de los ecosistemas en el largo tiempo.

“…avoidance of the area by (certain) ships. Although the added value of designating PSSAs is under debate, because the freedom for additional regulatory measures is limited, it is widely seen as a way to give global recognition to the fact that an area has intrinsic value in its own right (Roberts et al, 2005;Uggla, 2007). The first PSSA, Great Barrier Reef, was adopted in 1990.…”

“…This focus and the PSSA designation as the proper regulatory means contributed to concerted action on the matter (Uggla 2007; cf. Roberts et al 2005). Although narrowing an issue may be useful in gathering support and engagement for stricter regulation, this way of handling environmental risk implies reducing a particular issue to certain instrumental consequences of a phenomenon or activity (cf.…”

Environmental problems that cross national borders are attracting increasing public and political attention; regulating them involves coordinating the goals and activities of various governments, which often presupposes simplifying and standardizing complex knowledge, and finding ways to manage uncertainty. This article explores how transboundary environmental problems are dealt with to render complex issues governable. By discussing oil pollution in the Baltic Sea and the gas pipeline between Russia and Germany, we elucidate how boundaries are negotiated to make issues governable. Three processes are found to be particularly relevant to how involved actors render complex issues governable: complexity reduction, construction of a spatial identity for an issue, and ascription of capabilities to new or old actor constellations. We conclude that such regulation is always provisional, implying that existing regulation is always open for negotiation and criticism.
