Considering the magnitude of the threats, deficiencies in law enforcement and a growing pressure on the site derived from the ongoing fast urbanization of the whole Hyrcanian region; there is a high concern that the Outstanding Universal Value will further deteriorate. The current state of the site is fragile and needs to be strengthened with sustainable management measures. In order to let the forest ecosystem recover from previous negative impacts, there is a need of immediate actions to cease illegal activities inside the property and to manage the buffer zones in a sustainable way.
