  1. 4nd PlanCoast Conference Climate change and growing sea use pressures: Solutions offered by Marine Spatial Planning Slavko Mezek RRC Koper Berlin, 20th November 2007 Slavko Mezek, Regional Development Centre Koper Project is partly founded by European Union, program Interrreg IIIB CADSES

  2. Coastal area in Slovenia - South Primorska, 8 municipalities; • 1524 km2, 7,5% of national territory; • cca. 120.000 inhabitants, (6% of national population); Slika regije, z mejami občin, Slika Slovenije, znotraj nje regija; Slavko Mezek, Regional Development Centre Koper Project is partly founded by European Union, program Interrreg IIIB CADSES

  3. GDP/capita – 2nd region, slo=20.400 € (2006) • Service activities 75% • Transport (Port of Koper), tourism, trade Slavko Mezek, Regional Development Centre Koper Project is partly founded by European Union, program Interrreg IIIB CADSES

  4. Limited area (47 km coastline, 180 km2 territorial waters), • Shallow north Adriatic/ Bay of Triest (max.50 m, slovenian part – 35 m) • Coastal area - “national value”, • Symbolic – “window to the world” • Economic importance, • Nature, biodiversity, cultural heritage Slavko Mezek, Regional Development Centre Koper Project is partly founded by European Union, program Interrreg IIIB CADSES

  5. Pressures/ marine users: • Energy sector, • Maritime transport, Nature, biodiversity • Tourism: marinas, Cultural heritage, • Fishery, mariculture, Slavko Mezek, Regional Development Centre Koper Project is partly founded by European Union, program Interrreg IIIB CADSES

  6. Energy sector (gas terminal, gas-pipeline); Endesa, Gas natural, TGE gas Engineering Slavko Mezek, Regional Development Centre Koper Project is partly founded by European Union, program Interrreg IIIB CADSES

  8. Marine Spatial Planning – why is important for Slovenia? • Global, cross border context: • Changing nature of pressures: • Political options: (North) Adriatic – A Particularly Sensitive Sea Area or European gas terminal? • National context: • small size and high importance of coastal-marine area, • spatial constrains, conflicts ---- land-sea interconnections; • growing pressures on marine uses. Slavko Mezek, Regional Development Centre Koper Project is partly founded by European Union, program Interrreg IIIB CADSES

  9. PlanCoast contribution • Preparation of GIS data relevant to coastal or sea-use-planning • Promotion of preparation of Marine Spatial plan – national and for the North Adriatic • Awareness capacities raised among local, regional, national, cross-border target groups • Recommendations on common principles for Marine-Use-Planning • Contribution to spatial planning of a coastal strip in the framework of ICZM/CAMP Slovenia Slavko Mezek, Regional Development Centre Koper Project is partly founded by European Union, program Interrreg IIIB CADSES
