Science Response 2008/015
Review of cumulative effects report for port Mouton, Nova Scotia
Context
DFO Maritimes Science was asked by the Maritimes Habitat Protection and Sustainable Development (HPSD) Division to review a document entitled Cumulative Effects of Two Aquaculture Sites in Port Mouton Bay (Friends of Port Mouton Bay, 2008) on 18 September, 2008. Given that this report has been submitted to DFO as part of a broader Canadian Environmental Assessment process (led by Transport Canada), and since DFO Maritimes Science has provided information and advice on the same Port Mouton aquaculture site proposal previously (DFO, 2007), it was determined that the Maritimes DFO Science review of this document would be conducted using the Science Special Response Process. The document was reviewed internally within DFO Maritimes Science and this response represents the conclusions drawn from the internal review.
