Item 8 of the Provisional Agenda: Establishment of the World Heritage List

and of the List of World Heritage in Danger

8D: Clarifications of property boundaries and areas by States Parties in

response to the Retrospective Inventory

SUMMARY

This document refers to the results of the Retrospective Inventory of nomination

files of properties inscribed on the World Heritage List in the period 1978 - 1998.

To date, seventy States Parties have responded to the letters sent following the
review of the individual files, in order to clarify the original intention of their
nominations (or to submit appropriate cartographic documentation) for two
hundred fifty-three World Heritage properties.

This document presents fifty-five boundary clarifications received from twenty-five

States Parties, as an answer to the Retrospective Inventory.

Draft Decision: 36 COM 8D, see Point IV

I. The Retrospective Inventory

1. The Retrospective Inventory, an in-depth examination of the Nomination dossiers

available at the World Heritage Centre, ICOMOS and IUCN, was initiated in 2004, in
parallel with the launching of the Periodic Reporting exercise in Europe, involving
European properties inscribed on the World Heritage List in the period 1978 - 1998. The
same year, the Retrospective Inventory was endorsed by the World Heritage Committee
at its 7th extraordinary session (UNESCO, 2004; see Decision 7 EXT.COM 7.1).

2. The objective of the Retrospective Inventory is the identification and collection of baseline
data (such as boundaries, geographical coordinates, information on serial components,
area of properties in hectares, etc.) for early inscribed World Heritage properties. These
data had never been gathered in a systematic way before, in spite of their key role in
different processes, such as reactive monitoring, modification of boundaries and the
review of Periodic Reports for World Heritage properties. The reason was that documents
and maps received as part of the Nomination files:
a) had neither been registered nor inventoried until 1999;
b) had been dispersed in different archives at the World Heritage Centre, ICOMOS, or
IUCN.
In this context, the identification of baseline data was already difficult when only one
Nomination dossier had been received, but it was even more complicated when several
versions of the Nomination file had been submitted. In case of uncertainty, no help could
come from the side of the States Parties, as in most cases there was no institutional
memory at the local and national levels concerning the inscription process of World
Heritage properties.

3. Therefore, the Retrospective Inventory was initiated: all documentation available at the
archives of the World Heritage Centre, ICOMOS and IUCN was inventoried and
analysed, property by property. Baseline data were identified and made easily
retrievable, through their insertion in Inventories and in the database of the World
Heritage Centre. All maps were examined and compared to the text of the Nomination,
the evaluation of the Advisory Bodies and the decision of the World Heritage Committee
concerning the property, in order to identify which map was the authoritative one,
displaying the delimitation of the World Heritage property as inscribed. This analysis
allowed the detection of outstanding issues needing to be clarified (absence of
delimitation, mistakes in the attribution of geographical coordinates, etc.). Such problems
were subsequently presented to the States Parties concerned, whose cooperation was
requested in order to clarify them. Letters were sent to Permanent Delegations, National
Commissions and Focal Points identifying the maps and other geographical data on file
and asking for the missing information. All satisfactory answers received were finally
presented as “clarifications” to the World Heritage Committee.

4. This process (inventory – analysis – contact with the States Parties concerned –
clarification noted by the World Heritage Committee) involved since 2004 more than four
hundred properties inscribed on the World Heritage List in the period 1978 -1998, on the
basis of the following phases:
a) 2004-2005: Nomination files of European World Heritage properties were reviewed;
b) 2006: Nomination files of Arab World Heritage properties were reviewed;
c) 2007-2008: Periodic Reporting submissions (maps, Section II, etc.) concerning World
Heritage European properties were reviewed;
d) 2009: Nomination files of African World Heritage properties were reviewed;
e) 2010-2011: Nomination files of Asian and Pacific World Heritage properties were
reviewed;

in response to the Retrospective Inventory
 f) 2011-2012: Nomination files of properties in Latin America and the Caribbean were
reviewed.
The review of World Heritage properties in North America will be carried out in the
second half of 2012.

II. Boundary clarifications

1. This document presents “boundary clarifications”, i.e. clarifications of the delimitation of

properties at the time of their inscription on the World Heritage List. In fact, the perimeter
of early inscribed World Heritage properties is often unclear, as at the time of the
submission of the Nomination file:
a) either a map was submitted, but without clear boundaries for the nominated property;
b) or clear boundaries for the nominated property were displayed, but on a document
which technically could not be defined as “a map” (for example, lacking a coordinate
grid, or a scale, or a legend, etc.).

2. “Boundary clarifications” submitted by States Parties in order to solve these problems are
usually represented by maps. They are considered satisfactory (and are therefore
presented in this document) only if they:
a) are consistent with the Nomination, the evaluation of the concerned Advisory
Body(ies) and the decision of the World Heritage Committee at the time of inscription;
b) meet technical requirements, i.e.:
i) being topographic or cadastral maps at the largest available scale (the choice
between a topographic or cadastral map depends on the size of the property);
ii) displaying the delimitation of the World Heritage property as inscribed;
iii) showing a clearly labeled coordinate grid (or coordinate references for at least
four points on the map);
iv) presenting a bar scale;
v) displaying a legend in English or French clearly referring to the “boundaries of the
World Heritage property” (and to the “buffer zone of the World Heritage property”,
if applicable).
In order to avoid any future misunderstanding, it is important that the World Heritage
Committee takes note of such clarifications. A “Clarification Document” will be issued
each year until all pending issues have been resolved.

III. Boundary clarifications in 2011-2012

1. At its 35th session (UNESCO, 2011), the World Heritage Committee requested States
Parties concerned to submit all requested boundary clarifications by 1 December 2011
(see Decision 35 COM 8D). Following this decision, letters were addressed to the States
Parties concerned, asking for the missing information. Of the total of a hundred and
twenty-one clarifications received, fifty-five are satisfactory and are therefore being
presented to the World Heritage Committee in this document.

2. Clarifications are presented (see Annex) by Region (Europe, Arab States, Africa, Asia
and the Pacific, Latin America and the Caribbean), by State Party (in alphabetical order)
and by date of inscription of the property. For each World Heritage property, the following
elements are provided:
a) an identification table providing its name, its date of inscription, its criteria of
inscription, its identification number, its area in hectares (and the area in hectares of
its buffer zone, whenever applicable) and the date of receipt of the clarification;
b) a “Technical Summary” providing some explanatory notes;

Clarifications of property boundaries and areas by States Parties WHC-12/36.COM/8D, p. 2

in response to the Retrospective Inventory
 c) if the property is serial, a small table listing the serial components and their area in
hectares (and the area in hectares of their buffer zones, whenever applicable);
d) a thumbnail record of the new map(s) of the property.

“Works of Antoni Gaudí”, displayed an individual buffer zone for
the Sagrada Familia. The State Party was therefore requested to
clarify the discrepancy. In 2007, the State Party clarified that those
two components of two distinct World Heritage properties had
separate buffer zones and submitted a map showing the buffer zone
of the “Hospital de Sant Pau” (the buffer zone was then modified by
the World Heritage Committee in 2008). In 2011, the State Party
submitted a map showing the buffer zone of “Gaudí’s work on the
