Bowtie analysis of avoidance and mitigation measures within the legislative and policy context of the Fisheries Protection Program / by R.J. Cormier … [et al.].: Fs97-4/3093E-PDF

The Fisheries Protection and Pollution Prevention provisions of the Fisheries Act, introduced in November 2013, set the legislative requirements for managing threats to provide for the sustainability and ongoing productivity of commercial, recreational and aboriginal fisheries. The Fisheries Protection Policy Statement also introduces definitions for avoidance, mitigation and offsetting measures with a central focus on preventing serious harm to fish. Based on the suite of ISO 31000 risk management standards, this manuscript describes the use of the Bowtie analysis as a practical framework to implement a risk-based approach to the development of standards and guidelines. It integrates the fisheries protection provisions of the Fisheries Act and the Fisheries Protection Policy Statement within the risk management process of ISO 31000 to conduct the Bowtie analysis building upon Canadian risk management approaches.
