Abstract

Property: Bashkirian Ural

Id. N°: 879

State Party: Russian Federation

The Committee noted that the site is of European importance for the study of the natural dynamics of broadleaf forests. However, the site does not possess outstanding universal value. The proposal that this site could be considered as a Biosphere Reserve was noted and it was agreed that the State Party would follow this up with IUCN and UNESCO.

The Committee decided not to inscribe the site on the World Heritage List.
