Review of the 2008 statement of Canadian practice with respect to the mitigation of seismic sound in the marine environment / Valerie D. Moulton, Andre d’Entremont and John R. Christian.: Fs70-5/2020-041E-PDF

"The objective of this document is to provide a literature overview and an analysis of the recent science (since the 2004 peer-reviewed report), related Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) processes, regional Canadian mitigation and monitoring practices, and relevant international guidelines and protocols to determine if the 2008 SOCP requires updates to protect marine species. Based on the analysis of this information, we provided 29 recommendations for changes to the 2008 SOCP, which addressed all components of the SOCP. These recommendations and the associated rationale were discussed at a CSAS meeting held in Halifax, Nova Scotia on 28–30 May 2019 and are included as an appendix to a DFO Science Advisory Report (DFO 2020)"--Abstract.
