procedures comprising regular surveillance of the area and control of practices to
prevent threats on the MPA.
Finally, Part 3 of the questionnaire provides a quantitative analysis of the human, material
and financial resources needed by managers to effectively manage their MPA. Because not

implemented may vary among MPAs. Figure 7 below presents these activities according to
each phase of development of an MPA (FFEM, 2010).
