Technical review of stream-type Fraser River chinook management approach.: Fs70-6/2019-056E-PDF
"From 2008 to 2017, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) implemented a series of fisheries closures and restrictions to protect the three stream-type stock management units of Fraser River Chinook Salmon (Spring 42, Spring 52 and Summer 52). Initially aimed at protecting the Spring 42 stock management unit, the fisheries closures and restrictions were expanded in 2010 and again in 2012 to confer additional protections to the two remaining stock management units. DFO committed to reviewing the management approach after five years. For this purpose, a two-phase process was established to assess whether the approach had achieved its intended conservation and allocation objectives consistent with An Allocation Policy for Pacific Salmon (1999). Under Phase 1 of the process (and the subject of this regional peer review), DFO Fisheries Management requested that DFO Science Branch complete a technical review of the data and methods available to assess fisheries impacts on stream-type Fraser River Chinook Salmon from all fishing sectors. The results of this review will be used to inform subsequent consultative discussions on DFO’s management approach for Fraser River stream-type Chinook Salmon under Phase 2 of the process (which is not part of this regional peer review). This Science Advisory Report is from the July 9-10, 2019 regional peer review on the Technical Review of Fraser River Chinook Management Approach. Additional publications from this meeting will be posted on the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Science Advisory Schedule as they become available"--Context (pages [1]-2).
