Report on the Workshop on Ecosystem Health Report Card-Policy Formulation19th December 2013,

Hotel New Marrion, Bhubaneswar, Odisha, India

A workshop on “Ecosystem Health Report Card-Policy Formulation” was jointly

organized by Chilika Development Authority (CDA) and National Centre for

Sustainable Coastal Management (NCSCM), Chennai on 19th December 2013. The

workshop has been organized with support from United Nations Environment

Programme (UNEP) to elicit the policy formulation and management actions

recommended through the Ecosystem Health Report Card. The workshop was

inaugurated by Sj. Bijayshree Routray, Honourable Minister Forest & Environment

Department, Labour & ESI, Government of Odisha by lighting the lamps.

The inaugural speech was delivered by

Dr. A. K. Pattnaik, IFS, Chief Executive,

CDA. He emphasized on the importance

of „Health Report Card‟ as a simplified

science communication tool to policy

makers, wetland managers, and coastal

communities and as an effective

management tool. Prof. R. Ramesh,

Director, NCSCM introduced the concept

of „Ecosystem Health Report Card‟ and

discussed the methodology and

consultation process involved in its development. He flagged the importance of

choosing appropriate thresholds in developing a health report card for any water

body. He also mentioned how it can synthesize the complex volume of data and

information in to simple communicable format which can be understood and

appreciated by a wide audience including the policy makers and the stakeholders.

Dr. Anjan Datta, Programme

Coordinator, UNEP delivered the

opening remarks of the workshop and

introduced the GPNM project. He pointed

out that increasing irrational use of

excessive nutrients in the upstream

watershed area is deteriorating the

ecological health and productivity of

downstream coastal water bodies and

marine environments. He suggested that

regular monitoring of nutrients in sensitive coastal and marine ecosystem through

modeling, biodiversity assessment, and health report card production is essential for

sustainable management of natural resources. In his deliberation he appreciated the

good governance and the policy support for successful management of Chilika lake.

He also mentioned that the example of Chilika is showcased in a number of

International forum and has been highly appreciated. He expressed his sincere

thanks to the CDA for successfully completing the task of production of Ecosystem

Health Report Card for Chilika lake, and the support by the Government of Odisha .

Sri R. K. Sharma, IAS, Principal

Secretary, Forest & Environment

Department, Govt. of Odisha flagged

major issues such as overfishing,

pollution, tourism, and siltation which

need to be adressed in the management

plan of Chilika Lagoon. He further

pointed out that report card would be a

vital tool in presenting the ecological

health of lagoon in a transparent

manner to a wide spectrum of audience. Sj. Bijayshree Routray, Honourable Minister

Forest & Environment Department, Govt. of Odisha released the Odia version of

„Health Report Card‟. He pointed out that it will serve as powerful local media to

transfer in-depth scientific knowledge to simplest conceptual presentation which can

be understood by the local communities who are the real stakeholder.

Hon. Minister and the Principal Secretary in their addresses informed the meeting

about government‟s decision to allocate additional human and financial resources to

CDA to carry out the task that are identified as critical in the report card and also

taken a principle decision to enhance the mandate of the CDA. It was informed that

the Ministry of Forest and Environment has already requested the Ministry of Law to

draft an ordinance to this effect. The event was widely covered by various national

dailies and the television (few Newspaper clips attached).

The inaugural session of the workshop ended with the vote of thanks by Dr. Gurdeep

Rastogi, Senior Scientist, Chilika Development Authority.

The technical session of the workshop

initiated with the presentation of Dr, Anjan

Datta, on “UNEP-GPA- Global

Partnership on Nutrient Management

(GPNM) activities in Asia”. He discussed

the role of Global foundations for reducing

nutrient enrichment and oxygen depletion

from land based pollution, in support of

Global Nutrient Cycle. He flagged

eutrophication, green house gases, and

increasing nutrient load as major threats to

any ecosystem including coastal and marine ecosystem. He suggested regular

monitoring and preventive measures for sensitive water bodies.

Following this, an overview of “The Bay of Bengal Large Marine Ecosystem Project‟

(BOBLME) was presented by Mr. C.M. Muralidharan, Project Manager/Field

Administrative Officer on “Marine Pollution:GEF/FAO BOBLME Project”. He


discussed the trans-boundary issues associated with management of marine

ecosystem and identified irrational use of fishery resources, habitat degradation, and

landscape activities as major threats to Bay of Bengal ecosystem.

Dr. A. K. Pattnaik and Prof. R. Ramesh

during their joint presentation on

“Ecosystem Health Report Card for

Chilika Lake- Methodology,

Consultation Process and Finalization”

discussed the genesis of the Health

Report Card through the financial

support received from UNEP via Small

Scale Funding Agreement and technical

inputs from the University of Maryland,

USA and NCSCM Chennai. The

methodology, identification of bio-indicators, their threshold values and calculations

were discussed in context to the Chilika Lagoon in great details. Dr Pattnaik

explained the importance of the consultation process for developing the “Ecosystem

Health Report Card”. The forenoon session ended with floor discussion on the

challenges associated with Health Report Card development, policy formulation, and

taking appropriate intervention on a timely manner.

The afternoon session started with the screening of two documentary videos “Chilika

Jewel of Odisha” and “Management of Chilika” directed by Shekar Dattari a

renowned wildlife film director. These documentaries were very much appreciated by

the participants.

Dr. P. R. Muduli, Scientific Officer, CDA presented workshop report on “Ecosystem

Health Report Card- Laguna De Bay-Manila” and discussed the need of developing

site-specific methodology, indicators depending on the socioeconomic values and

pressures linked to a particular ecosystem.

This was followed by a panel discussion on prospects of adoption and replication of

Ecosystem Health Report Card. The panelists were Dr. P. K. Mohanty , ACS, Kerala,

Dr. Ajit Pattnaik, Chief Executive, CDA Dr. Anjan Datta, Programme Coordinator,

participation deliberated on many issues related to identification of suitable

indicators, availability of large datasets for determining appropriate thresholds, role

of efficient institution, importance of drainage basin in management of wetland

ecosystem, nutrient flow form point & nonpoint source and socio-political conflicts in

policy formulation and implementation.

The issue of scope of replication of the ecosystem health report card was deliberated

and it emerged from the discussion that it could be an effective management and

monitoring tool which can connect science to management. The representatives of

other States of India indicated their appreciations for the work that has been

accomplished by the CDA with support from UNEP/GPA, and they expressed their


keen interest to work with CDA, UNEP/GPA and other partners to replicate the same

Taking Forward the Recommendations of the 2012 Chilika Lake Ecosystem Health Report Card:

the critical management issues

The context Lake Chilika, the largest coastal lagoon on the east coast of India and lifeline for more than 0.2 million fishers, is a designated Wetland of International Importance (Ramsar Site under the Convention on Wetlands) since 1981. The Government of Odisha created the Chilika Development Authority (CDA) in 1991 for undertaking restoration of its ecosystem and overall management of the lagoon which was in a degraded state. With financial support of the Odisha State government and the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India, CDA initiated several activities including; scientific studies to trace the root cause of degradation of the lagoon ecosystem, treatment of degraded micro-watershed , hydro-biological monitoring, sustainable development of fisheries, wildlife conservation, ecotourism development, community participation and development and capacity building at various levels, strategic partnership with more than 40 organisations, a massive awareness programme on values & functions of the lake ecosystem. Based on the numerical model study & wide scale consultation, a major hydrological intervention was carried out in the form of opening a new inlet to the Bay of Bengal in 2000 which helped exchange of water between the lagoon & Bay of Bengal resulting in ; improvement of desired salinity levels, enhanced fish landing, decrease in area under invasive species and overall improvement of water quality. Recovery of resources led to significant improvement in livelihoods of dependent communities. In 2012, the Chilika Development Authority joined the UNEP initiated Global partnership on Nutrient Management and the UNEP/GEF project “Global foundations for reducing nutrient enrichment and oxygen depletion from land based pollution, in support of Global Nutrient Cycle”. Within the framework of this collaboration CDA and UNEP agreed to develop an “ecosystem health report card” aiming to provide coastal communities and other stakeholders including the policy makers with the knowledge, understanding and prediction needed to allow all stakeholders to know the current state of the ecosystem and the priority management needed and respond accordingly. “Ecosystem Health Report Card” is a simple science communication to a wide array of stakeholders including the policy makers. A key part of this approach was to foster linkages between agricultural and fishing communities as well as the coastal communities and the policy makers. The “Report Card”, based on the ‘pressure-state-response’ framework for environmental management concludes with key management recommendations and the CDA through a policy workshop attended by senior policy makers from various States and agencies (see annexes for list of participants and newspaper coverage of the event) and agreed carry forward the recommendations through revision of the current management plan with attention to the following. Management of the Chilka Lake Consistent with CDA mandate, the primary objective of the National Wetland Conservation Programme of the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India and the key recommendations of the Report Card, the enhancement and to maintain the ecological character of the Chilika Lake with an

ecosystem approach is the core focus of the management plan. CDA acknowledges and endorse the key recommendations of the Report card which are as follows;

Ensuring hydrological connectivity of Chilika with freshwater and coastal processes at the basin level.

Establishment of hierarchical and multi-scalar inventory of hydrological, ecological, socioeconomic, and institutional features and ecosystem services to support management planning and decision-making.

Promotion of sustainable participatory catchment management practices to manage inflow of silt and nutrients into the wetland system.

Adoption of environmental flows as a basis for water allocation for conservation and development activities.

Promotion of biodiversity conservation through habitat improvement of endangered and indigenous species.

Facilitation & support responsible community based ecotourism as a viable alternate source of livelihood and enhancing awareness, participatory conservation.

Promotion of sustainable fisheries for maintaining nutritional security while ensuring maintenance of biodiversity and equitable sharing of benefits and livelihood.

Reducing poverty through sustainable resource development and supporting livelihood diversification activities.

Reforming the institutional arrangements to enable integration of wetland management planning and river basin and coastal zone management.

Strengthening CDA with adequate legal and administrative powers to regulate detrimental activities.

Building capacity at all levels for technical and managerial skills for implementation of integrated management planning.

Maintenance of ecological character provides basis for planning and management actions. Taking in view the recommendations of the report card as outlined above, the integrated management framework outlined in this report (which will be further elaborated) represents the commitment of CDA, Government of Odisha and Government of India. The broad approach for management planning is characterized by the following:

Adopting river basin approach integrating catchments and coastal processes for conservation and sustainable management of the wetland

Integration of biodiversity into regional planning to minimize impacts of developmental activities

Participatory approaches involving local communities, scientists, NGOs and concerned organizations to ensure sustainability of activities

Adopting preventive measures by combating the problems at source rather than merely curative measures

Draw from the indigenous knowledge and revival of traditional practices which are cost effective for management of biodiversity

Application of knowledge based techniques for restoration through research and development activities

Continuous monitoring and evaluation with focus on achieving the goals and objectives rather than merely activities and periodic production of “report Card” as done for 2012 .

In the light of the recommendations of the Report Card and the Policy workshop (December 2013) CDA with inputs from key stakeholders will also review the Integrated Management Planning Framework for Conservation and Wise Use of the Chilka (2012) and current institutional arrangements and human resource capabilities of the CDA in terms of its ability to maintain ecological character and, in particular, respond to drivers and pressures that have negative impacts; and will also work out the details of management planning components, outcomes, performance indicators, activities and implementation strategy. It is worth noting that the Government of Odisha has already given additional allocation of financial and human resources to CDA to initiate the process to facilitate implementation of the recommendations and also taken principle decision to revise the mandate of CDA to empower CDA to deal with issues of encroachment of the Chilika Lake by unauthorized shrimp farms and other related activities. For long term monitoring of physio-chemical properties of water CDA has already installed 10 data buoys and acquired necessary equipment for enhancing the research and analytical capabilities of its scientist. Furthermore, government is considering to introducing battery-operated boats for tourism in Chilika to reduce noise pollution and other untended impacts of currently used engine boats both for human population and the dolphins. The CDA has also initiated a programme of planting mangroves along a stretch of 10km along the coast of the Chilika Lake in partnership with local self-help groups and NGOs and giving training to fisher groups on storage and handling of their fish catch (which is transported to local markets, nearby districts, states and international markets in the form of fresh, live, dry fish and frozen fish) to add values for their harvest.
