Stock status update of American lobster (Homarus americanus) in Lobster Fishing Area 34 .: Fs70-7/2018-044E-PDF

"Advice on the stock status of American Lobster (Lobster) in Lobster Fishing Area (LFA) 34 is requested annually by Fisheries and Aquaculture Management (FAM). The last Regional Advisory Process of this stock occurred in February 2013, with updates occurring annually from 2014-2017. The 2013 assessment identified three primary indicators that describe changes in lobster abundance or biomass, as well as proposed reference levels for each indicator. The next framework review is planned for winter 2019. This Science Response updates these indicators to the end of the 2016-2017 fishing season"--Context, p. [1].
