Bog is the major habitat at one IPA, and mire, fensand bog are significant features of nine IPAs, covering 15% of the area of IPAs. Grasslandhabitats occur at all ten IPAs (dry grasslands in two and mesic grasslands in nine),covering 5% of the area of IPAs. Running and standing water is also a key feature on allten IPAs. Constructed habitats occur on all IPAs but at between 1-5% of the area.Thereis a low level of agricultural or cultivated land on all IPAs although one IPA has up to15% agricultural land.Nature protection is the most common land use on IPAs, occurring on eight sites.Forestry, and hunting are also important land uses occurring on nine and eight sitesrespectively. Recreation (seven IPAs) and agriculture (seven IPAs) are also significant landuses at IPAs in Belarus.Qualifying criteria for IPAs in BelarusCriterion No of Criterion A No of Criterion No of IPAs Criterion No ofA IPAs Tax.

BelarusOLEG MASLOVSKYRecommendationsThere are three main directions for thedevelopment of the IPA project in Belarus:■ The selection and description offurther IPAs■ The development of ecologicalmanagement programmes for individualIPAs in cooperation with the Ministry andthe reserve administrations (Blue Lakes isthe probable first candidate for this)■ The development of joint managementprojects for trans-border IPAs (withPoland, Lithuania, Ukraine and Russia)Blue LakesThe Blue Lakes IPA in the Minsk region was protected in 1972 and included intoNarochansky National Park in 1999.The area is characterised by a great variety oflandscapes, in particular the splintered mosaic of lakes, hills and moraine.This relativelysmall area forms a unique natural complex with a large number of rare and vanishingplant species and habitats, including four species protected in Europe.OLEG MASLOVSKYBelovezhskaya PushchaBelovezhskaya Pushcha National Park is situated in the south west of Belarus on theborder with Poland.The main area covers 90,000 hectares with additional zonescovering 120,000 hectares. It is a unique area of species rich, old European forest, andmost of its species are in the Red Book of Belarus, fourteen of those are Europeanprotected species, and it also includes many relict plant and animal species.The picture shows Berezinsky IPA.37
