concentrate on investigating and researching some water basins with many rare
and precious aquatic species, highly endangered species and those of economic
and scientific value.

5. To study, formulate and
perfect legal documents on management of inland conservation zones: government
decrees and guiding circulars on the regulation on management of conservation
zones, classification criteria, order and procedures for the establishment of
inland water zones, etc.
6. Investment capital needs
State budget investments will be
concentrated on the formulation of a master plan and detailed plannings on 45
inland water conservation zones, construction of essential infrastructure
facilities and supporting activities of the program management board and
