	CASPIAN SEA
		During the 1960's and 1970's, the Caspian Sea was polluted as adversary countries competed to reap the benefits of sturgeon fishing.
		Today, the Caspian Sea is threatened by pollution, which has led the main exporters of caviar to take initiatives designed to help protect its abundant supply of sturgeon.
		Second, the Caspian Sea was very polluted during the 1960's and 1970's and the many countries surrounded are attending to keep it clear and conserve its pressure resources.

		The Caspian Sea's energy potential already was well-known, and the confirmation of that potential with the discovery of significant hydrocarbon deposits in the mid-1990s brought an influx of foreign investment in energy development in the region, particularly in Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan.
		Thousands of seals that live in the Caspian Sea have died since 2000 due to pollution that weakened their immune systems, and overfishing, especially of the prized sturgeon, has caused a dramatic decline in fish stocks.
		The overfishing that threatens the Caspian's sturgeon population is a direct result of the inability to reach a new agreement to divide the sea.

	CEP: General background
		The Caspian Sea is the biggest enclosed body of water on Earth, having an even larger area than that of the American Great Lakes or that of Lake Victoria in East Africa.
		The Caspian region lies in the center of the Palaearctic zoogeographical realm and is comprised of two major biomes – cold, continental deserts and semi-deserts in the north and east and, warmer mixed mountain and highland systems with complex zonation in the southwest and south.
		Birds are prolific throughout the year, in and around the Caspian, and their numbers swell enormously during the migration seasons when many birds patronize the extensive deltas, shallows and other wetlands.

		Furthermore, the Caspian has the potential to produce 16-17 bn cfpd of natural gas by 2010, of which Turkmenistan could account for some 49 % of the total and Kazakhstan 38 %.
		Examples include: Kashagan, which is now a discovery; the CPC pipeline, which is now operational, reducing the transportation and marketing risk for Tengiz and others; progress on the BTC pipeline, which should have a similarly positive effect on the ACG development; conclusion of the gas contract and transit terms for Shah-Deniz gas.
		The overall potential of the Caspian region is not in doubt.

	- Russian National Interests and the Caspian Sea
		The Caspian Sea, located on Iran's northern border, surrounded by Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Turkmenistan, and sharing a border with the south-west corner of Russian territory, is the epicenter of a collision of regional, national and business issues.
		Caspian oil, despite all its economic significance, is merely the external manifestation of the global political task of the present day-the restoration of Russia's might.
		To achieve this end, the MFA initially argued that the Caspian is a lake and not a sea in order to gain access to the richer oil deposits (since the Caspian basin would be treated as common economic property to its littoral states if it was considered a lake and not a sea).

		The three provinces with their tropical climate in summer and mild winters, beautiful sandy beaches and scenic beauty are very popular among Iranians as a holiday and weekend resort and numerous holiday and residential complexes and private villas dot the landscape.

		The northern part of the Caspian is still ice-bound, despite the heavy spring flow into the sea from the Ural and Volga Rivers.
		By late March, the Caspian ice cover around the Volga Delta has thinned, and the heavy sediment load brought down by the river results in a significant plume of mud into the sea.
		The large shallow bay along the eastern shore of the Caspian, the Zaliv Kara Bogaz Gol, is an effective evaporating basin for the sea.

	Caspian Sea Oil: Politics and Pipelines
		WHILE THE DISCOVERY of significant new oil fields in the Caspian Sea near Kazakhstan is good news for a petroleum-thirsty world, getting that oil to international markets will require overcoming enormous obstacles since it must travel by pipeline through one of the most politically volatile areas of the world.
		Because the Caspian Sea is landlocked, oil and natural gas must be transported by pipeline to a terminal on the open sea, where it would be pumped into tankers and shipped to customers.
		• Azerbaijan: Although it is presently the largest oil producer in the Caspian and has reserves estimated at more than one billion barrels, American companies cannot provide economic or technological assistance to Azerbaijan as long as it maintains an embargo on neighboring Armenia.
