The plan threatened wetlands in southern Hokkaido.〔http://www.wbsj.org/nature/hogo/others/chitose/ronbun01.pdf〕 Lobbying by WBSJ and others was also successful in getting the plan to reclaim Fujimae Tidal Flat, an important migration stop-over site for shorebirds to be dropped.〔http://www.japanfs.org/en/pages/029046.html〕 Wild Bird Society of Japan (WBSJ) is a BirdLife International Partner.
