О создании морского охраняемого района (МОР) в регионе моря Росса под управлением АНТКОМ
On October, 2016, at the 35th Session of CCAMLR, the member states of the Antarctic Commission adopted Conservation Measure 95-01 (2016) and agreed on the creation of a marine protected area (MPA) in the region of the Ross Sea and the adjacent areas westwards. The total area of the created MPA makes up 1.55 million sq. km or 452 thousand sq. mi. This area is located in high seas of the World Ocean and is not controlled by any state, which distinguishes this MPA from the other ones, currently existing in the waters under the jurisdiction of a number of states. It is expected that regulation of anthropogenic impact in the MPA area of the Ross Sea will be carried out by joint efforts of the CCAMLR member states. A prolonged discussion on this MPA creation started in 2011. As it progressed, Russia, Ukraine, China and Japan opposed to creation of MPAs in the Antarctic, justifying that there is no scientific rationale for their creation and it is not allowed by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea to place MPAs under the control of any state. A proposed alternative MPA model, which will be managed by an international organization, is still mostly provisional, despite its adoption by the CCAMLR member states. Nature of activities in such an MPA is defined by Conservation Measure 91-04 (2011) and is mostly of a proclamation approach. Various conservation trends for distribution areas, habitats, biocenoses, biodiversity, etc. serve as a basis of these activities. However, the Antarctic Convention does not expect such an activity from the member states, including the creation of MPAs. As well as the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea does not grant the states in high seas of the World Ocean the rights for marine resources conservation. Thus, the Antarctic Commission member states, claiming this Antarctic region to be an MPA and intending to protect it, went beyond the authority of the Antarctic Convention and the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. It is allowed to continue toothfish fisheries in the created MPA, but in a significantly limited area. There is no reason to count on intensification of scientific activities of the Antarctic Convention member states, because it did not happen in the other Antarctic regions, which are now off-limits to fisheries. It is noted that primary proponents for MPAs creation and the states that supported that decision, pronounced their aims to protect living resources and ecosystems, while there is no hazard to either of them. It is reckoned that creation of such MPAs is mostly targeted at positive responses from international non-governmental organizations and global community. In case of CCAMLR plans implementation to cover all the Antarctic area with MPAs, existence of the Antarctic Commission as an organization regulating fisheries will lose its meaning.

In case of CCAMLR plans implementation to cover all the Antarctic area with MPAs, existence of the Antarctic Commission as an organization regulating fisheries will lose its meaning. В октябре 2016 г. на XXXV Сессии АНТКОМ государства-члены Антарктической Комиссии, приняв Меру по сохранению 95-01 (2016) Морской охраняемый район в регионе моря Росса, согласились с тем, что акватория моря Росса с примыкающими с запада участками будет именоваться «Морским охраняемым районом в регионе моря Росса» (МОР). Море Росса было основным районом международного промысла антарктического клыкача, с ежегодным выловом около 3 тыс. т. Созданный так называемый «МОР» общей площадью 1,55 млн. кв. км (452 тыс. кв. миль) расположен в открытых водах Мирового океана и не будет находиться под управлением какого- либо государства. Этим он значительно отличается от существующих в настоящее время МОРов, созданных государствами в водах под их юрисдикцией. Предполагается, что регулирование антропогенной деятельности на акватории «МОРа» в море Росса будет осуществляться совместными усилиями государств-членов АНТКОМ. Созданию этого так называемого «МОРа» предшествовала длительная дискуссия, начавшаяся в 2011 г. Россия, Украина, КНР и Япония высказывались против создания МОРов в Антарктике под управлением конкретного государства, так как не существует научного обоснования для их создания, а передача МОРов под управление отдельного государства противоречит Конвенции ООН по морскому праву. Созданный вариант «МОРа», который будет управляться государствами-членами АНТКОМ в рамках международной организации, во многом является лишь условным понятием. В этом «МОРе» предусмотрено продолжение промысла клыкача, но на существенно ограниченной акватории. Виды и направления деятельности в нем определены Мерой по сохранению 91-04 (2011) и носят в основном декларативный характер. Ее основу составляет охрана ареалов, районов, экологических сообществ, сохранение биоразнообразия и т. п., при этом упоминание угроз для них отсутствует. Но Антарктическая Конвенция не предусматривает деятельности государств-участников по охране акваторий и биоты, в том числе путем создания МОРов. Конвенция ООН по морскому праву также не наделяет государства в открытых водах Мирового океана правами по охране морской биоты. Таким образом, охрана и защита этого так называемого «МОРа» в общепринятом понимании этого термина невозможна в условиях открытых вод Мирового океана. Государства-члены Антарктической Комиссии, объявив район Антарктики «МОРом» и намереваясь каким-то образом его охранять и целенаправленно исследовать, тем самым вышли за пределы существующих определений МОРов, а также Антарктической Конвенции и Конвенции ООН по морскому праву. Возможно, обособленный этими государствами регион должен получить иное название, например, Антарктический район интенсивных исследований (Antarctic area of intensive research, AAIR). При этом нет оснований считать, что в такой акватории усилится научная деятельность государств-членов Антарктической Конвенции, так как в других ранее закрытых для промысла районах Антарктики этого не произошло. Предполагается, что создание такого «МОРа» в Антарктике во многом ориентировано на положительную реакцию международных неправительственных природоохранных организаций и заинтересованной мировой общественности. В случае реализации планов АНТКОМ по закрытию всей акватории Антарктики подобными «МОРами» существование Антарктической Комиссии как организации, регулирующей рыболовство, потеряет смысл.
