Assignment Brief: Illegal Fishing Vessel Converted to Dive Wreck 

Phase 1: Australia Captures Russian Toothfish Poachers 
CANBERRA, Australia, February 12, 2002 (ENS) – The flag of Russia has emerged as the latest  to fly on alleged illegal longliners chasing riches in the Southern Ocean, following the arrest  of two fishing boats by the Australian Navy. 
A mission code-named Operation Sutton has pounced on the vessels Volga and Lena near  Heard Island, about 2,200 nautical miles southwest of Perth, Western Australia.

They were carrying about 200 metric tons of Patagonian toothfish, sold in the United States  as Chilean sea bass, which the Australian government said is worth $A2.5 million ($US1.25  million). 
The pirate trade in toothfish is estimated by the  government to be worth $US90 million annually wholesale. Its fishers have used a range of flags of convenience, including Panama, Vanuatu and Togo. 
As well as depleting the stressed toothfish resource, the illegal trade is threatening with extinction several species of seabirds that become caught on longline hooks, according to scientists advising Antarctica’s fisheries organization, the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR).
The frigate HMAS Canberra backed up by the tanker HMAS Westralia seized the two vessels  within 24 hours of each other on February 7 and 8 during the mission details of which were  made public today after it ended. The government has declined to speculate on the ownership of the vessels. Greenpeace said  it believes they are part of a fleet of up to six ships owned by a Russian holding company  with links to a toothfish trading company in Hong Kong. The arrests were conducted under hazardous conditions in extreme cold and rough seas.  Armed troops and fisheries officials from HMAS Canberra fast-roped onto the sterns of the  Russian boats from a helicopter to take control. It is understood they met some resistance. Australian Navy confiscates the longliner Volga Lena was first to be arrested, about 140 nautical miles inside the Australian Fisheries Zone around Heard Island.  
Australian government ministers disclosed that in December the Lena was pursued unsuccessfully by an unarmed Australian fisheries patrol vessel for two weeks. It was forced to give up the chase after running low on fuel.

Background 

This assessment uses your reflection on the work you have undertaken over the semester to  create project risk documentation. Reflection is a vital element to project management since  it requires you to identify and assess: 

1. What went well?  

2. What didn’t go so well?  

3. What you would do differently next time?  

This forms part of wider lessons-learned for your project. Although a formal lessons-learned  workshop is a planned activity that should be held at the end of the project (or stage), in  modern project environments, it is also common to seek and exploit lessons-learned at team  meetings, at reviews and during heath checks and audits throughout the life cycle of a project including at the end of your planning for project risk management. The value to you in  undertaking this assessment is to become familiar with this process.
