Editors: Mary Thiess & Erika Anderson
Summary
These proceedings summarize the relevant discussions and conclusions that resulted from a Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Canadian Science Advisory Regional Peer Review meeting on July 9-10, 2019 at the Pacific Biological Station in Nanaimo, B.C. A working paper titled “A technical review of the Fraser River Chinook Management Approach” was presented for peer review.
The major topics discussed were data sources and quality, fisheries-related incidental mortality, uncertainties related to marine survival, exploitation rates, genetic stock identification, and recreational fisheries data, biological properties and their link to management actions, and common terminology.
In-person and web-based participation included Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO), Indigenous organizations, recreational fishing industry representatives, Pacific Salmon Commission, Chinook Technical Committee, environmental non-governmental organizations and academia.
The Science Advisory Report, Research Document and Proceedings will be made publicly available on the Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) website and the recommendations arising from this review will inform future discussions of DFO’s management approach for stream-type Fraser River Chinook Salmon.
