| | The Trilateral Wadden Sea Forum |
 | | The trilateral Wadden Sea Forum was installed in 2002 by the governments of the Wadden Sea states with the task of developing strategies for sustainable development in the Wadden Sea region. |  | | “We urge the European Commission and the Wadden Sea fisheries ministers to start working immediately on a system of rules and regulations which will make it possible to carry out fisheries in the Wadden Sea in such a way that jobs are secured and the Wadden Sea ecosystem is not damaged” said Mr. |  | | The three governments concerned, proposed the designation of large parts of the Wadden Sea as Particularly Sensitive Sea Area (PSSA) to the IMO, a status which has been granted in October 2002. |

 | | The continued ecological functioning of the Wadden Sea is also strongly dependent on conditions within the rest of the North Sea. |  | | At the Third North Sea Conference in the Hague in 1990, the Wadden Sea states all called for the phasing out of PCBs and the reduction of other harmful pollutants as soon as possible. |  | | Management programmes include the Wadden Sea Conservation Programme (WWF Project 1411) which operates through the IUCN/WWF Advisory Committee for the Wadden Sea. |
