Summary:
The Fisheries Resource Conservation Council attempts to take a comprehensive approach to the conservation and management of our fisheries resources through a better understanding of fisheries ecosystems including the interaction of fish with other species, predator-prey relationships, and also changes in the marine environment such as ocean currents, water temperature and salinity. This report provides recommendations related to scientific priorities, predator-prey relationships, foreign overfishing and conservation measures. It then provides stock-by-stock recommendations by region (Labrador, Newfoundland shelf, Grand Banks; Gulf of St. Lawrence; Scotian shelf, Bay of Fundy, and Georges Bank) for main species, including cod, haddock, pollock, redfish, plaice, flounder, halibut, hake, flatfishes, and grenadier. Subcommittee reports are provided and public consultations are described.
