"BC Pacific Herring stocks are managed based on five major (Haida Gwaii, Prince Rupert District, Central Coast, Strait of Georgia, and West Coast of Vancouver Island) and two minor (Area 2W and Area 27 ) stock areas. Catch and survey information is collected independently for each of these seven areas and science advice is provided on the same scale.Fisheries Management Branch annually requests science advice regarding the status of Pacific Herring stocks in BC and harvest options following the current harvest control rule and using decision tables. New to the 2017 assessment is estimation of stock productivity, and estimation of current stock status relative to the new limit reference point"--Context, p. [1].
