Aniva Bay

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aniva Bay (Zaliv Aniva, Aniwa Bay, or Aniva Gulf) is located at the southern end of Sakhalin Island, Russia, north of the island of Hokkaidō, Japan. The largest city on the bay is Korsakov.

Lately the bay has been in the news because the Sakhalin-II led energy consortium was dumping dredging in the bay. This received attention from environmental groups, namely Sakhalin Environment Watch, and the harm the dredging is doing to the native wildlife, and in particular the salmon in the bay.
