International guidelines Sample Clauses

International guidelines. In European Union waters, four bodies have dealt with guidance on the impact of underwater noise, either directly addressing this issue related to each noise-producing activity (ACCOBAMS, ASCOBANS and ICES), or including noise into the range of impacts induced by specific human activities in the marine environment, particularly wind farm development (OSPAR and ICES). Relevant works from these bodies are the following: - the Resolution 4.17 “Guidelines to address the impact of anthropogenic noise on cetaceans in the ACCOBAMS area” (31); - the “Final Report of the ASCOBANS Intersessional Working Group on the Assessment of Acoustic Disturbance” (46); - the OSPAR " Overview of the impacts of anthropogenic underwater sound in the marine environment” (38); - the OSPAR “Guidance on Environmental Consideration for Offshore Wind Farm Development” (47); - the ICES “Report of the Working Group on Marine Mammal Ecology ( WGMME )” (48) - the ICES “Report of the Ad-hoc Group on the Impacts of Sonar on Cetaceans and Fish ( AGISC ), 2nd edition” (49). Additionally, we present some key concepts from the report Reducing underwater noise pollution from large commercial vessels prepared by Renilson Marine Consulting Pty Ltd (2009) (50) and submitted by IFAW (International Fund for Animal Welfare) and FOEI (Friends of the Earth International) to the Marine Environmental Protection Committee (MEPC) of the International Maritime Organisation in 2009. The IMO took note of this information in the paper Noise from commercial shipping and its adverse impacts on marine life (51). These concepts have further been published by Renilson and Leaper (2012)(52) and integrated in the draft guidelines prepared by the Drafting Group on Underwater Noise of the Sub-committee on Ship Design and Equipment of the IMO. This draft has been submitted to the MEPC with a view for approval in 2014.
