"A regional science peer-review meeting was held on January 31, 2019 in Burlington, Ontario. The purpose of the meeting was to assess the recovery potential of the Great Lakes-Upper St. Lawrence populations (Designatable Unit [DU] 3) of River Darter (Percina shumardi), to provide advice that may be used for the listing decision, development of a recovery strategy and action plan, and to support decision making with regards to the issuance of permits and agreements. Participants included DFO Science, Species and Risk, Policy, and Fisheries Protection programs, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (OMNRF), and regional Conservation Authorities. The Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) designated River Darter in DU 3 as Endangered in 2016.
