OPENING OF THE MEETING

1.1 Welcome
addresses

1.
On behalf of UNDP and UNOPS, Mr. Yihang JIANG, Project Manager, welcomed all
participants to the Meeting in Jeju, and described the important work that awaited the
members of the Third Regional Scientific and Technical Panel (RSTP) Meeting over
the next few days. Mr. Jiang mentioned that the project had accomplished an
important output, namely the preparation of the TDA, and the meeting would review
this document, as well as plan the preparation of the SAP. Mr. Jiang mentioned that
the meeting would review the achievements over the past year. With the support of
experts involved in the project, the project has achieved many results. Finally, Mr.
Jiang was pleased to inform the meeting that DPRK had officially endorsed the
project, and is willing to participate in the project as a full member.

2.
On behalf of the delegation of Republic of Korea (ROK), Mr. Hyung Tack HUH, as
the National Project Co-ordinator (NPC) of ROK and host country of the meeting,
welcomed all participants to the meeting. He noted that the project had been
implemented quite successfully since last year, with the final draft TDA completed,
which is a major expected output of the project. He hoped that all participants would
work co-operatively over the next three days, and reach solutions to overcome the
obstacles that might be encountered. Finally, Mr. Huh thanked the PMO for its hard
work in project implementation and meeting organisation. Mr. Huh wished the
meeting a successful and fruitful outcome.

3.
On behalf of the Government of China, Mr. Haiqing LI welcomed all participants to
Jeju, and expressed his appreciation to the Government of ROK for the meeting
arrangements. Mr. Li also expressed his appreciation to the TDA Consultant for
preparing the TDA under short notice. Mr. Li noted the special significance of the
meeting, as the draft of the TDA was ready for review, and the project would be
entering a new phase, namely SAP preparation to figure out the most important
actions to take. Mr. Li mentioned that the meeting would review the past year's work,
and pave the way for the 2nd phase and the upcoming PSC meeting. Finally, Mr. Li
stated that he looked forward to working with everyone over the next few days in the
spirit of co-operation, and believed that if everyone maintained this spirit, then the
project can be successfully implemented.

17.
The Project Manager's report presented the major findings from the "Data &
Information Collection" activity, including:

Composition of commercially important fisheries species and fisheries capture
amounts;
Fisheries social-economic information such as number of boats and its
relationship to fisheries production;
Aquaculture production in the region and its ratio of contribution to global
production;
Change in coastal wetlands habitats;
Plankton and benthic composition;
HAB events over the past 22 years; and
N and P distribution through Yellow Sea surface waters.

18.
Mr. Jiang also explained:

the history of the co-operative study cruise arrangements;
the efforts to involve DPRK in the project;
operation of the PMO;
intern
programme;
project website, YS Partnership website, and e-discussion forum;
challenges for project implementation; and
recommendations to overcome the challenges.

19.
Following the Project Manger's report, Mr. Li gave his congratulatory remarks, by
thanking the PMO for providing a comprehensive and informative report. He stated
that China was satisfied with the substantial achievements and progress of project
implementation, and expressed his appreciation and confidence to the PMO on
future implementation. The PMO was congratulated for its "innovative"
implementation mechanism, with the materialization of new ideas and activities not
listed in the original project document. Mr. Li stated that the various public
awareness activities have allowed different stakeholders to be involved in the project.
He hoped that the efforts would continue and expand to all levels, and encouraged
the PMO to continue its efforts to expand the partnership to include more Chinese
organisations.

20.
Mr. Li went on to compliment Mr. Mike BEWERS, TDA Consultant, and the expert's
contributions as RWG Chairpersons and as contractors to provide regional syntheses
reports. The PMO was congratulated for its efforts to have DPRK join the project
following the instructions of the PSC. Mr. Li informed the meeting that China played
a catalytic role in this effort, and will continue to do so, to assist DPRK's full
participation in the project.

21.
Although the co-operative study cruises were not yet successful, Mr. Li noted that all
parties involved had expended lots of energy to meet this objective. He believed that
the efforts would not be wasted, would serve as the basis for further action, and that
eventually the cruise would take place.

22.
Mr. Li noted that the challenges and recommendations mentioned in the PM report
deserve the meeting's attention, and need serious consideration. As the NPC of
China, he confirmed that he would do his best to follow the recommendations for the
project's future success.

23.
Finally, Mr. Li stated that mutual understanding is important, particularly for the joint
cruise. Co-operation and co-ordination are other important factors to sustain in order
to ensure future success.

24.
Participants gave their reflections on the PM report which included:

The need to express results in SI units in this and all national and regional
syntheses reports in order to not confuse readers;
Some of the fisheries catch data include some catch from Bohai and East
China Seas;
The ROK fisheries, mariculture, and legal data were not fully reflected in the
report, although they were explained in the national and regional reports; and
NOWPAP might share some of the collected data for their activities.

25.
Mr. Quan WEN expressed his satisfaction with the high quality of the PM report. He
thanked the ROK partners for providing data that allowed his team to produce the
basin-wide graphics showing nutrient concentrations. He thanked Mr. Bewers for
guiding the experts to produce a finalised causal chain analysis for pollution
problems. Mr. Wen also mentioned the initiation of the Visiting Scientist from China
to SSI-KORDI to analyse POPs, in preparation for cruise sample analysis.

26.
In response to the participant's comments, Mr. Jiang explained that the delay in
submission of proposals and budgets from potential contractors for some activities
led to the delay in issuing the contracts. He also alerted the meeting to the fact that
the remaining three years of the project has substantial activities with more funds for
activities than in the first two years.

27.
Mr. Jiang then showed the 2006 Expenditure Report, as of October 2006, and
explained that the expenditure was fairly low compared to planned activities mainly
because the cruise was not implemented. He urged the RWG Chairpersons to assist
in better planning the activities and to help see that activities are implemented
according to schedule.

28.
Mr. Jiang also highlighted the savings in expenditure, particularly where the YS
Partnership had helped to defray some costs with the sharing of financial and human
resources amongst partners. The minor costs incurred for the Partnership's activities
were reflected in the Expenditure Report.

29.
Following the discussion and explanations, and noting the opinions from the
participants, the Meeting adopted the PM report.


5
REPORTS OF THE NATIONAL PROJECT CO-ORDINATORS

30.
The NPCs from China and ROK presented their reports (UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/5a-b)
on the implementation of project activities at the national level covering:

Activities accomplished in 2006;
Difficulties/problems encountered in project implementation; and
Suggestions for future work.

31.
Mr. Li emphasised three aspects of national level project implementation in China:

co-ordination in project implementation, communication between DPRK and
PMO, and seeking approval of the co-operative study cruises;

---

UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/3
Page 5

organisation of local government entities in applying for the Small Grants
Programme, officers in attending the "Local Government Officers Training
Workshop," and selecting an intern to work at the PMO; and
assistance in hosting and preparing project-related meetings.

32.
Mr. Li noted that a different understanding of the cruise approval process in each
country was a continuing problem. The lack of understanding by local governments
of the benefits to participate in the project needed to be reduced, and contractors had
different levels of understanding for the quality/detail level of outputs to be submitted.

33.
Mr. Huh highlighted the cruise arrangement progress in ROK and mentioned some
issues to be resolved such as:

change in RWG and NWG membership;
a need to improve institutional incentives; and
lack of update in use of co-financing resources;
enlargement of office space for the PMO; and
request for travel funds for the NPC to attend RWG meetings.

34.
The recommendations for future implementation at national level included:

A need for more efforts to realise the cruise;
The currents project members should welcome DPRK to the project, consider
how to enable their participation, and China is ready and willing to help with
communications;
A need to involve more local government bodies in project implementation;
and
More initiative at national level to implement the project.

35.
On behalf of the PMO, Mr. Jiang expressed his appreciation to the Governments of
China and ROK for their continuing assistance with project implementation,
particularly, the special efforts by NPC ROK to get data submitted as timely as
possible.

36.
Co-financing was one of the topics of discussion. It was mentioned that the progress
and details of co-financing resource use should be reported to the RSTP and PSC.
The NPCs understood that co-financing was in-kind support, even if the resources
were allocated to specific national activities.

37.
The PMO clarified that applications for the Small Grants Programme should be sent
directly to the PMO. However, NPCs could co-ordinate and assist national
organisations with the application procedure. This would allow the NPCs to keep
track of the events at national level, and to co-ordinate national level submission of
the proposals.

38.
The PMO also clarified that the NPC contracts contained budgets for national co-
ordination, which should be used for national WG activities.

39.
The RWG Chairpersons were invited to give presentations on the outcomes from
their respective RWG's activities (UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/6a-e) and implementation of
project activities in their respective components. The Chairpersons mentioned:

Activities implemented in 2006;
Data
gaps;
Suggested future activities; and
Some limitations with project implementation.

40.
The discussion following each presentation is described below.

Biodiversity

42.
Ms. Young-Shil KANG summarised some of the national data collected from the two
countries, outcomes of 3rd RWG-B Meeting, issues for the RSTP to decide (report
publication, gene pool analysis), and proposed new activities.

43.
The issues for the RSTP to consider were discussed after all the Chairperson's
reports were given.

Ecosystem

44.
Mr. Sinjae YOO mentioned the data gaps and some limitations in the current
knowledge such as weak overview of physical oceanography, the need for more data
interpretation, and that some HAB data are misinterpreted, and occurrence of
increased HAB frequency may not necessarily be true.

45.
Future activities included the remote sensing workshop, carrying capacity guidelines
and estimation as defined by the Ecosystem Component, and preparation of
ecosystem monitoring guidelines.

46.
Mr. Yoo gave his replies to the participant's questions on future activities as follows:

He agreed with Mr. Mingyuan ZHU's suggestion that the remote sensing
workshop would include Chinese scientists in the planning process;
He clarified that the ecosystem monitoring guidelines activity would need to
co-ordinate the logistics with the Pollution Component when the monitoring is
actually implemented, as some parameters might overlap and the geographic
areas of monitoring might be different; and
He stated that inter-comparison of primary production measurement values
would be part of the co-operative cruise.

47.
There was extensive discussion on how to co-ordinate the carrying capacity activity
with the fisheries group. Mr. Mingyuan Zhu stated that carrying capacity should not
be limited to primary productivity, but should also include secondary production. Mr.
Yoo had no objection, but stated that it might be difficult to do so. Mr. Xianshi JIN
emphasised the need to define the boundary of carrying capacity, as estimating it for
the whole Yellow Sea might be very difficult.

48.
The Meeting recognised that the definition of "harmful" was under debate or had
been changed in some scientific circles. However, each national report showed data
according to national definitions of "HAB:" cell density of 1,000 cell/ml in Korea; while
China's is based on cell density.

Fisheries

49.
Mr. Jin gave a concise overview of the fisheries-related activities, showing the many
models available to estimate fisheries carrying capacity, and mentioning proposed
new activities that would be discussed later in this meeting.

50.
The sole question about the missing Chinese mariculture data posed by Ms. Inja
YEON received the reply that the data had been submitted to the PMO, prior to the
RSTP Meeting, in the final China Fisheries report.

Investment

51.
Following the presentation of this group's various activities, Mr. Mingyuan Zhu listed
some issues which the RSTP should consider:

As the responsibilities of the RWG-I cover a wide range, members might have
difficulty to obtain full knowledge on the activities of their group;
Some regional activities are conducted by only one consultant, but perhaps
should be a team of consultants from both countries;
The RSTP and PSC should establish a procedure for changing the working
group members; and
Enhancing more regular communications between the PMO and the
members.

52.
The PMO explained that there existed some sources of information on project
activities, such as the project homepage, e-discussion group and quarterly newsletter
which are readily available online.

53.
A sessional working group was formed to propose actions to enhance the
communication mechanism. The group proposed that:

RWG Chairpersons should be more involved in activity processes, such as
evaluating contracted deliverables;
RWG members should more regularly check the project website for updated
news; and
RWG Chairpersons should be copied on major communications between
PMO and contractors.

54.
The Meeting suggested that some persons might not review deliverables
without incentives. This Meeting agreed that the PSC should consider this
issue.

55.
The Meeting took note of the proposed actions, and instructed the PMO to keep
RWG Chairpersons updated and more involved in activity implementation.

Pollution

56.
Mr. Wen's presentation contained some findings from the national reports and the
regional synthesis, the causal chain analysis for pollution problems, Pollution
Component's activities in the past year, proposed new activities, and sharing of
information across the components. He suggested that there is a need for more
demonstration activities of current pollution management practices. Finally, Mr. Wen
highlighted that local government officers have been involved in some of this
component's activities.

57.
Mr. Kyung Hoon SHIN informed the meeting that, based on the recent decision of the
Government of ROK, he would not be the new NWG Pollution Chairperson, but just a
member.

58.
Mr. Xiaodong ZHONG informed the meeting that NOWPAP is working on similar
topics, and would like to explore further co-operative activities in the areas of river
inputs of contaminants, marine litter, and workshop on assessing marine
environment quality. NOWPAP was also interested in obtaining a copy of the final
pollution synthesis report.

59.
Mr. Jiang mentioned that although there were difficulties in sharing classified data
according to the current national policies in both participating countries, the group
had managed to find a solution to share the data products, to meet the requirements
of the project activities. The group had also shared the work load in providing data to
each other and producing basin-wide graphics. Mr. Jiang also suggested that the
experiences generated from RWG-P on the spirit of co-operation, wisdom in finding
comprises and solutions to implement the activities should be introduced to other
RWGs for better implementation of the project activities.

60.
Mr. Wen reported on the discussion related to obtaining primary production values to
assist in setting regional management targets. As this task requires additional work,
further discussion between Mr. Wen and Mr. Yoo will take place after the meeting, to
finalise how they might set these targets. Mr. Wen also mentioned that the regional
syntheses reports for ecosystem and pollution would be cross-reviewed to obtain the
required information.

61.
Mr. Yoo reported back on his discussion with Mr. Jin on carrying capacity. As
the RWG-F and RWG-E had different foci for carrying capacity (initial focus on
mariculture for RWG-F, primary productivity focus for RWG-E), it was agreed
that the two components would implement the relevant activities as agreed by
the RWGs.

62.
Mr. Yoo also reported on his discussion on ecosystem monitoring with Mr. Wen. Mr.
Yoo recommended that after the completion of the pollution monitoring guidelines,
the SAP Consultation meeting should consider how the two activities should be co-
ordinated.

Issues for RSTP to Consider

Report Publication

63.
Regarding the issue of publication of national and regional syntheses reports, the
issue of editing and improving the quality of the reports was widely discussed. It was
suggested that the national reports could be published by the project in 2 volumes by
country, and the regional syntheses in another volume. The Meeting agreed with
the suggested format of publication.

64.
The discussion focused on how to improve the report quality before publication, as
the reports had been submitted in varying qualities. For example, not only should
there be improvements in "cosmetics," (e.g. the format and English), but additional
scientific information should be included.

65.
It was noted that the publications should be of high quality to show a symbol of co-
operative efforts, and to produce a product that is usable to the region for the long-

---

UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/3
Page 9

term. The PMO was requested to provide some good reports as models for writers
to follow. With the report models and hiring of an English editor, it was believed that
the result would be high quality reports.

66.
It was suggested that the Chinese national teams would consider publishing their
reports as a press publication. Additional costs for the publication would be covered
by their own financial resources. Mr. Mingyuan Zhu agreed to find out the costs
and time frame for press publication, immediately after the meeting, and inform
his findings to the PMO. The Korean reports would be published as project reports.

67.
The PMO proposed a schedule showing the actions and deadlines leading up to the
publication of the reports in early 2007. Following the suggestions and revisions
by the participants, the agreed publication schedule is attached as Annex IV to
this report.

Gene Pool Analysis

68.
Following the explanation on the history of this activity's development, the Meeting
recognised that genetic diversity information is necessary for biodiversity
conservation in the Yellow Sea. Gene pool analysis is an important activity for the
project to implement.

69.
The Meeting agreed that a workshop is needed to examine the current
knowledge and how genetic information can be used for protection of
biodiversity in Yellow Sea. The Meeting also agreed that the new chairperson
for RWG-B, Ms. Kang, would submit to the PMO, a proposal for the workshop
before the end of January 2007.

Participation of Biodiversity Component in the Winter Cruise

70.
Due to limited space on the cruise research vessel, the Meeting agreed that the
observations of marine mammals and birds would not be included in the winter
cruise.

Biodiversity Coastal Survey

71.
The PMO informed the meeting that, as already explained during the 3rd RWG-B
Meeting, the proposed coastal survey by Chinese RWG-B members would be re-
visited after the SAP Consultation Meeting defines the management targets. It was
also explained that, should a coastal survey be implemented, additional policy-
related issues need to be considered, such as sharing of data and how to co-ordinate
a coastal survey with on-going projects in the region's coastal areas.

72.
The Meeting noted the explanations.

73.
Following the discussions, clarifications and agreements reached, the Meeting
endorsed the reports of the RWG Chairpersons.


7
REGIONAL GIS AND META DATABASES

74.
Mr. Hoi-Soo JUNG presented the proposal for improving and maintaining the
Project's database (Document UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/7), hosted at the China-Korea
Joint Ocean Research Center. He mentioned the GIS and metadatabases that were
being constructed and soon to be accessible online. The presentation also included

---

UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/3
Page 10

recommendations for linking with existing databases, the location of the mirror site,
training on the usage, and need for standardisation of format for data submission.

75.
On behalf of the Project, Mr. Jiang felt that the proposal needed more technical
details, such as what type of database the project expects to produce and how to co-
ordinate with the existing databases, in order for the Meeting to understand and
make a decision on future actions to take regarding database maintenance.

76.
Mr. Jiang also emphasised that, as there are many existing databases in the region,
the project needs to justify why another database is being constructed; thus, the
database should be user-friendly and provide a "one stop-shopping place" for Yellow
Sea data.

77.
The proposal was further discussed between Mr. Jung and the PMO. Mr. Jung
appreciated the assistance of the PMO to improve the proposal, reported the results
of the discussion, and mentioned that the proposal would be further developed,
based on the discussion outcomes, and detailing the requirements of the activity.

78.
As the revised proposal was not ready for the meeting to review, the Meeting
agreed that the proposal should be re-submitted to the PMO before 25th
December 2006. The PMO will circulate the revised proposal to the relevant
experts for evaluation. If the evaluators deemed the new proposal acceptable,
the Meeting entrusted the PMO to issue a contract for the activity.


8
PREPARATION OF THE TRANSBOUNDARY DIAGNOSTIC ANALYSIS (TDA)

79. Mr. Bewers, the TDA Consultant, presented the draft TDA (Document
UNDP/GEF/YS/TDA Draft2), alerting participants to the fact that this TDA does not
include stakeholder analysis or address infrastructural weaknesses for capacity
building, as it is to be covered in the SAP process, and the latter will be covered by
the governance analyses. Mr. Bewers explained the purpose of a TDA, the
components, the contents of the draft TDA, the environmental problems of each
component, the levels where interventions can be introduced, an example of one
causal chain analysis showing the priority problems and trends, the frequency of root
causes, and options for interventions in the SAP.

80.
During the discussion, it was reiterated that the HAB data mentioned in the draft TDA
are not really accurate as already explained during RWG-E Chairperson's report.
The Meeting recognised that there was an increasing trend in the earlier years that
might result from the more frequent monitoring.

81.
Mr. Bewers clarified that the HAB problem belonged only to one component, but was
mentioned under more than one component, depending on how it was addressed. In
the final version, he would include some statements to more clearly define "HAB" as
mentioned in the report.

82.
Mr. Jin reiterated that some fisheries data include catches from Bohai and East
China Seas, so the interpretation of data should make this clear. He also mentioned
that original references should be cited as much as possible. Although the TDA is
not a scientific peer-reviewed publication, Mr. Bewers accepted the suggestions, and
agreed to cite original references where possible, although it was expected that citing
from within project reports was fully acceptable for the preparation of a project TDA.

---

UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/3
Page 11

83.
The NPCs and PMO congratulated Mr. Bewers on the professional quality of the draft
TDA, which provides a good basis for the beginning of the SAP. It was suggested
that any implementation mechanism proposed for the region should not mention any
specific organisation, but kept as an umbrella to work under, to allow examination in
the later stage of the project. This would leave the options open for countries to
decide what mechanism to take during the SAP process. Mr. Bewers agreed to re-
write the sentence(s).

84.
The Meeting endorsed the draft TDA in principle, with necessary modifications
as indicated by the members of the RSTP. The meeting agreed with the TDA
Consultant's suggestion that the final TDA would be submitted to the PMO by
15th December 2006. If any participant has editorial comments, these should
be submitted to the PMO by the end of November 2006, to be forwarded to the
Consultant.


9
CO-OPERATIVE CRUISE (WINTER CRUISE)

85.
Mr. Jiang gave a brief recapture of the winter and summer cruise arrangement and
the relevant approval progress in the participating countries. The PMO facilitated the
negotiation process, but there is still no final agreement from the two sides, nor final
approval from the two governments.

86.
The Meeting thanked the NPCs and the Project Manager for their efforts in trying to
reach agreement on this very important activity.

87.
Mr. Li suggested the following principles to facilitate solving the difficulties regarding
the joint cruise:

(i) Both sides should endeavour to make the joint cruise happen since this has
very high symbolic significance on the willingness to cooperate with each
other. To realize this, mutual understanding and spirit of cooperation are
needed.
(ii) The result of the negotiation on the summer cruise be used as the basis for
the winter cruise with minimum possible changes and on an equal basis,
since consensus was almost achieved for the summer cruise map.
(iii) The project manager has played an indispensably key role in coordination of
the summer cruise, and should continue to act as a coordinator to facilitate
the discussion.

88.
Mr. Li hoped that the Korean side fully understands the application and approval
process in China in conformity with the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, and
noted that no final agreement can be made before formal approval is given by the
Chinese government.

89.
Mr. Huh introduced the position of the Korean government, which is to make the
winter cruise happen, keeping the discussion as general as possible without going
into too many details.

90.
Some discussion was made on the cruise map to be used for further consultation.
The Chinese side suggested to use the summer cruise map as the basis for further
consultation as it would be easier to get approval. The Korea side suggested to use
the winter cruise map as the basis for further consultation.

91.
The Meeting took note of the cruise arrangement progress and recognised that both
countries have strong willingness to implement the co-operative cruise, as one of the
most important outputs of the Project. The Meeting requested the Project Manager
to continue facilitating the negotiation process. The PM agreed to do so
accordingly.


10
PROPOSED PROGRAMME AND BUDGET FOR 2007 AND ONWARDS

10.1 Proposed Project Activities

SAP Consultation Meeting

92.
Mr. Jiang explained Document UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/10 relevant to the preparation
of the SAP and the proposal for an SAP Consultative Meeting marking the first steps
to achieve the next major expected output of the project. He informed the meeting
that the proposed consultation would involve scientists and experts from within and
outside the region, with NPC assistance in selecting the participants. The proposed
consultation should touch upon issues relevant to appropriate management
interventions, and include mechanisms for regional co-operation, governance issues
relevant to SAP implementation, and sustainability of the current and suggested
efforts to protect the Yellow Sea. The Consultation should consider that the SAP
needs to be approved by the governments of the participating countries, and should
consider necessary arrangements to prepare a realistic SAP to address marine
environmental problems in the Yellow Sea.

93.
The participants agreed that there is a need for transition from TDA to SAP
phase, and supported the proposed activity.

94.
The PMO replied to the participant's questions with the following answers:

The open-ended consultation will invite experts to participate in their personal
capacity as it would be more effective and productive. The first consultation
is proposed to be a brainstorming session where the participants would
decide on the major activities leading to the successful preparation and
approval of the SAP; and
As the SAP would be developed over the next two years, it was expected that
the first year would focus on the preparatory work, e.g. regional governance
analysis and producing regional environmental valuation guidelines. The
second year would likely focus on the drafting and approval of the SAP.

95.
There was a brief discussion regarding how DPRK might participate in the SAP
process and other project activities. The Meeting agreed that further discussions
on this matter should be held at the forthcoming PSC Meeting.

96.
Participants agreed that the consultation should be held before Lunar New
Year 2007.

97.
The PMO was instructed to find the venue for the activity.

Regional Science Conference

98. Referring to Document UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/11, Ms. Chiang introduced the
proposed programme for the Regional Science Conference which was an activity

UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/3
Page 13

approved by the PSC last year. She informed the meeting on the objectives, design,
scope and structure of the conference.

99.
The meeting was informed that the Second Global Conference on Large Marine
Ecosystems will be organised in Qingdao, China, 11-13 September 2007. It was also
noted by the Meeting that the GEF IW Conference would be held next year, and the
science conference should be organised considering the timing of these events.

100. The Meeting agreed to form an organising committee to take responsibility in
preparing and organising the conference including selecting/inviting
participants and finalising the conference programme.

101. A sessional working group was formed to decide how to form the Organising
Committee, and produce a draft working schedule to prepare for the conference.
The Meeting agreed that the Organising Committed would be responsible to
select the venue and finalise the dates. The Meeting gave some suggestions to
modify the working group's report, and the final agreed document is attached
as Annex V.

Regional Governance Analysis

102. Mr. Isao ENDO gave an overview of the proposed regional governance analysis
agreed as a future activity by the 3rd RWG-I Meeting (Document UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP
3.6f). The proposed study aims to analyse:

major regional environmental problems;
stakeholder
participation;
international co-operative mechanisms;
roles of existing legal institutions; and
participation by all Yellow Sea bordering countries.

103. Mr. Endo also explained that the proposed regional governance analysis will use
existing information such as the TDA and national governance analysis studies.

104. The Meeting agreed with the proposal, and noted the suggestion that
international conventions already ratified by countries in the region should be
included in the analysis.

10.2 Proposed Project Budget for 2007 and Onwards

105. Mr. Jiang explained the revised budget for 2007 to 2009 (Document
UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/12), mentioning that unspent funds from completed activities
had been reallocated to new activities. Mr. Jiang also explained that new activities
added to the budget had been discussed and agreed upon by the respective RWGs,
and during previous agenda items.

106. Mr. Jiang and Mr. Andrew MENZ reminded the meeting that changes in plans were
acceptable, but had to be informed early enough so that realistic planning and
budgeting could be made.

107. Mr. Yoo requested that all funds for "demonstration of new and innovative
technologies" be combined into one line; thus, IMIS codes 2119 and 3208 were
combined. It was agreed that CPR observation should be implemented using
the Chinese vessel. The necessary funding should be covered by the
combined budget lines.

UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/3
Page 14


108. Following the clarifications given by PMO for all participants' queries, the Meeting
accepted the proposed revised budget, and agreed to forward it to the PSC for
approval. The agreed revised budget is attached as Annex VI.

10.3 Proposed Workplan for 2007

109. Mr. Jiang invited participants to refer to Document UNDP/GEF/YS/RSP.3/13, and
pointed out that the new activities were listed at the bottom of each component's
workplan as well as on page 2 of the document.

110. Mr. Menz asked the PMO to consider when would be a good time for the project mid-
term evaluation, due in mid-2007. Mr. Jiang informed the meeting that the evaluation
is scheduled in the 2007 Workplan, and this had been considered informally. The
Meeting noted that the Project Manager and representatives from UNOPS and
UNDP/GEF would discuss this issue at a later stage.

111. The Meeting reviewed the workplans and agreed to submit them, as listed, to
the PSC for approval (Annex VII).


11 OTHER
BUSINESS

112. Mr. Li stated that the Meeting might consider how to facilitate the 3rd PSC Meeting's
discussion on DPRK's involvement in the project. As not all partners were present at
this meeting, the crux of the discussion should be deferred to the PSC. However,
some suggested discussion points were mentioned for the PSC to consider:

Relevant policies on how to involve DPRK in project activities;
Financial resources for DPRK's involvement in the project;
Logistic arrangements to enable DPRK's participation; and
Communication channels between DPRK and PMO.

113. Mr. Jiang highlighted some salient points concerning the accomplishments to get
DPRK involved in the project, the foreseeable future work to be done, and political,
technical, and logistical issues to consider in involving a new member to the project.

114. Mr. Jiang replied to the query that a UNDP/GEF Medium Sized Project Proposal had
been prepared to provide funds for capacity building activities for DPRK, upon the
latter's expression on its preferred focal area. The MSP is under consideration for
funding, and countries expressed their support to the proposed MSP.


12
DATE AND VENUE OF NEXT RSTP MEETING

115. Considering the involvement of DPRK, the venue and dates for the Fourth RSTP
Meeting will be decided following the discussion at the forthcoming PSC Meeting,
and consultation with DPRK.


13
ADOPTION OF THE MEETING REPORT

116. The Chairperson led the discussion of the draft meeting report prepared by the
Secretariat. The report was reviewed, amended, and adopted by the Meeting.

CLOSURE OF THE MEETING

117. Mr. Jiang thanked all participants for their contributions in reaching the meeting's
objectives. He stated that, as facilitator of the joint cruise negations, he wished to
express his appreciation to all persons involved in the process. As the cruise would
be an important and symbolic achievement, he hoped to reach agreement in the near
future.

118. Mr. Li thanked the Chairperson for his guidance, wisdom, and efforts in leading the
meeting through the agenda. Mr. Li also thanked the PMO for their professional
manner in organising and facilitating the meeting.

119. The Chairperson thanked all participants for their active participation throughout the
meeting. In particular, he was grateful to the TDA Consultant for producing a high
quality TDA. Finally, the PMO was thanked for its efforts in organising the meeting.

120. The Chairperson declared the Meeting closed on 22nd November 2006.
