Summary

These Proceedings summarize the relevant discussions and key conclusions that resulted from a Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) Regional Peer Review meeting of December 17-18, 2019 at the Pacific Biological Station in Nanaimo, B.C. A working paper presenting an updated Bocaccio stock assessment, including an evaluation of a 2016 recruitment event, was presented for peer review.

In-person and web-based participation included Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Science and Fisheries and Aquatic Management Sectors staff; and external participants from First Nations organizations, the commercial and recreational fishing sectors, and environmental non-governmental organizations.

The conclusions and advice resulting from this review will be provided in the form of a Science Advisory Report providing advice to the Groundfish Management Unit to inform the multi-species fishery planning. A revised working paper, providing details of the stock assessment, including data used, model equations and conclusions, will be published as a DFO CSAS Research Document.

The Science Advisory Report and supporting Research Document will be made publicly available on the Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) website.
