Ana Paskaleff
Senior Project Specialist, Auckland Council
I'm currently working in Proactive Compliance with Marine Biosecurity, trying to prevent vessels from being a pathway to spread marine pests to our high value costal marine areas within Auckland. Educating vessel owners and affected parties on our biofouling rules and the Regional Pest Management Plan 2020-2030, along with hull surveillance is my focus. My background and career at Auckland Council is in environmental compliance.
