2.2 Update and complete TDA, including an updated assessment of the relative importance and transboundary impact of land- based and marine-based sources of pollution and
filling the gaps identified in the Preliminary TDA.
Fill the gaps in oil, chemical spill, and dredging related
ecological and social sensitivity/vulnerability
mapping and diagnosis (incorporated into a GIS), including the sensitivity to the use of
dispersing chemicals for oil spill clean-up in the entrances of ports, along major
navigational routes and in adjacent vulnerable coastal areas (including scientific studies to
assess the temporal and
spatial patterns in the reproduction and recruitment of sensitive marine organisms), building on existing data.
Conduct a review of the national and regional legal and
institutional frameworks
addressing environmental management of the maritime transport industry.
Complete an analysis of the socio-economic conditions of the
Gulf of Honduras
region that would affect efforts to improve environmental management of the maritime transport
industry.
