Wild salmon policy biological status assessment for conservation units of interior Fraser River coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) . : Fs70-6/2015-022E-PDF
The Wild Salmon Policy (WSP) outlines Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s (DFO) strategies for managing Canada’s salmon resources. The status assessment (Strategy 1) involves developing benchmarks and determining the biological status of Conservation Units (CUs). In order to apply the WSP status assessment strategy to Interior Fraser Coho (IFC) salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch), abundance-based benchmarks were calculated, based on previously published methods, and a comprehensive set of population dynamics, abundance, trend, distribution, and productivity information were reviewed for each of the five CUs. This assessment found no evidence that smolt-adult survival has improved or returned to the higher productivity regime. Because the productivity is low, the sustainable harvest that can be expected from the management unit is also low relative to historic levels.
