Stock assessment of Atlantic halibut of the Gulf of St. Lawrence (NAFO divisions 4RST) for 2013 and 2014 .: Fs70-6/2015-023E-PDF
The current Atlantic Halibut stock management unit in the Gulf, NAFO Divisions 4RST, was defined in 1987. In 1988, Management introduced the first total allowable catch, followed in 1997 by a minimum legal size. The Atlantic Halibut directed fishery is carried out by longliners on a competitive basis or by Individual Transferable Quota (ITQ). Assessment of the resource is conducted every two years in order to highlight changes in the status of the resource that would justify adjustments to the conservation measures and management plan. The current assessment puts into perspective the available information on the biological characteristics of the Gulf Atlantic Halibut and its commercial exploitation for 2013 and 2014.
