DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
DEEPFISHMAN general aim
• Develop strategy options for the management of deepwater
fisheries in the NE Atlantic
– Appropriate/new
•
•
•
•
Stock assessment methods
Biological reference points (BRPs)
Harvest Control rules (HCRs)
Managements strategies
– Account of
• Stock sensitivity
• Biodiversity/ecosystem and VMEs sustainability and conservation
– Specify additional monitoring data requirements
• (e.g.) lack of scientific cruises, economics data missing in some
fisheries, poor knowledge of high resolution spatial distribution of
fishing effort
DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
Current situation: assessment
• Exploratory/unreliable in most CSs
• Existing data no all available to assessment
groups (e.g. ICES/WGDEEP)
• No protocole to integrate some data (e.g. on-board
observations)
DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
Current situation: management
(EU only)
• Main management tool= TACs
• Effort limitation (ceiling on total effort/ member
country licensing scheme)
• Existing technical measures: e.g. spatial and
seasonal closures for blue ling
• Ecosystem/biodiversity assessment: not integrated
with stock assessment
– Some MPAs designed for VMEs conservations
DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
What should be achived in 2012
• Reliable assessments and/or indicator based
management
• Biological reference Points (BRPs)
• Harvest Control Rules (HCRs)
• Monitoring framework
• Requirements for progress towards
– objectives of WSSD (e.g. MSY estimated data or
requirements)
– (For EU) MSFD
• initial ecosystem assessment
• indicators relevant to the 11 ecosystem descriptors of
MSFD
Integrated in a long-term management strategy framework

DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
Deepfishman builds on 5 case studies (at least 9 fisheries)
• range of situations in EU waters
• some case studies out of EU waters (Namibia, NAFO, Iceland, Norway,
NEAFC regulatory area)
• several are data poor two data rich Case study are included
Case study 1: Single species fisheries:
Highly sensitive(*) species
1a: Orange roughy in Namibia
1b: Orange roughy in ICES sub-areas VI and VII
Less sensitive(*) species
1c: Blue ling in ICES Division Vb and sub-areas VI-VII
Contacts:
Rudy Cloete, NatMIRC, Namibia ([email protected])
sensitive = easy to overexploit

Case study 2: Multi species fishery
French trawl fishery to the west of the British Isles
Main target species:
roundnose grenadier
blackscabbard fish
used to exploit significantly deep-water shark (low TAC in
2009; 0 TAC in 2010)
Link with CS2c: single species fishery for blue ling
due to evolution over time of fishing activities

DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
Case study 3: artisanal fisheries
3a: Red seabream in the Gulf of Cadix (handlines and
longlines) and Bay of Biscay (depleted stock)
3b: Red seabream in the Mediterranean sea (handlines,
longlines and nets)
3c: Black scabbard fish of Portugal (longlines)

DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
Case study 4: redfish (Sebastes mentella) in the NE
Atlantic
Fishery:
- well documented bottom trawling on Norwegian shelf
- data poor pelagic trawling
- an unclear complex (?)
- no quantitative assessment

DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
Case study 5: Greenland halibut in NAFO area
• Fishing grounds: Between 600-1300 m. Depth
• Catch levels: 22.000 – 25.000 ton
• Countries: Spain, Portugal, Canada, Russia, etc
• Fleet: around 60 vessels
• Gear: Bottom trawl
• Last assessment:
•XSA Model
•Explo. Biomass = 86.000 tons
•Fbar (5-10) = 0.432

DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
Work with stakeholders
- analyse how deep-water fisheries can be
assessed/managed
- discuss the project plan
- analyse where stakeholder can contribute with data
- define the involvement of stakeholders in the
management of Deep-water fisheries
DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
Links with Marine
Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD)
• Descriptors of MSFD:
- 1
-
- Biological diversity is maintained. [...]
2 - Non-indigenous species
- 3 - Commercially exploited fish [...] healthy stock.
-
4 - Marine food web [...] normal abundance and diversity [...]
5 - Eutrophication
- 6 - Sea-floor integrity [...] structure and functions [...]
safeguarded [...] benthic ecosystems [...] not adversely
affected
-
7 - Hydrographical conditions
8 - Contaminants in the environment
- 9 - contaminants in seafood
- 10 - [...] marine litter do not cause harm
-
11 - Introduced energy
DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
Future management
• Agenda
– implementation of the MSFD
– reform of the CFP
• Topics
– green paper on the CFP reform: more
involvement of the stakeholders; stock
managed to produce MSY
– MSFD & CFP reform : ecosystem
approach
