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(*) species1a: Orange roughy in Namibia1b: Orange roughy in ICES sub-areas VI and VIILess sensitive(*) species1c: Blue ling in ICES Division Vb and sub-areas VI-VII
sensitive = easy to overexploit

Case study 2: Multi species fisheryFrench trawl fishery to the west of the British IslesMain target species:
roundnose grenadierblackscabbard fish
used to exploit significantly deep-water shark (low TAC in 2009; 0 TAC in 2010)Link with CS2c: single species fishery for blue lingdue to evolution over time of fishing activities

Case study 3: artisanal fisheries3a: 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)

Case study 4: redfish (Sebastes mentella) in the NE AtlanticFishery: - 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

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

Links with MarineStrategy 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
