Antarctic Protected Areas System: Reformatted List of Historic Sites and Monuments
The Representatives,
Recalling Decision 1 (2019), in which Parties agreed to incorporate new fields of information, in addition to the existing fields, in the List of Historic Sites and Monuments (“the List of HSMs”);
Desiring to update the descriptions of Historic Sites and Monuments (“HSMs”) according to the format prescribed by Decision 1 (2019), but at the same time conscious that there are likely to be regular updates of a minor and technical nature in certain new fields of information;
Decide:
1. that the information contained in the fields entitled “No.”, “Description”, “Location”, “Name”, “Type”, “Description of the historical context”, “Applicable criteria in accordance with Resolution 3 (2009)” and “Physical features of the environment and cultural and local context” continues to be a formal part of the List of HSMs and any changes to these fields will require adoption through a Measure; and
2. to consider the information contained in the fields “Conservation status”, “Management tools”, “Designation/Amendment” and “Photographs” as supplementary information to the List of HSMs, for which any changes will be agreed by the Committee on Environmental Protection (“CEP”) and noted in its report to the Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting (“ATCM”), and applied to the HSM database by the Secretariat of the Antarctic Treaty.
