Summary
The Zonal Peer Review for the Assessment of Northern Shrimp (Pandalus borealis) in Shrimp Fishing Areas (SFAs) 4-6, Eastern Assessment Zone (EAZ), and Western Assessment Zone (WAZ), and of Striped Shrimp (Pandalus montagui) in SFA 4, EAZ, and WAZ was held February 22-26, 2021 via Microsoft Teams. Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Resource Management requested this assessment as the basis for harvest advice for the 2021/22 fishing season. DFO Resource Management also requested that DFO Science establish a Limit Reference Point (LRP) consistent with the Precautionary Approach (PA) framework for Striped Shrimp in SFA 4. The meeting was attended by participants from DFO Science, DFO Resource Management, industry, indigenous groups, Government and academia. This Proceedings Document contains presentation abstracts, a summary of the discussion among meeting participants, research recommendations and uncertainties. The meeting’s Terms of Reference, agenda, and a list of participants are appended. In addition to this Proceedings Document, two Science Advisory Reports (SARs) and two Research Documents will be published and made available on the Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) website.
