  2. 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

  3. 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

  4. 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

  5. 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

  7. 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 (rudi1@iway.na) Leonie Dransfeld, Marine Institute, Ireland (leonie.dransfeld@marine.ie ) Phil Large, Cefas, UK (phil.large@cefas.co.uk) sensitive = easy to overexploit DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009

  8. 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 Contact: Pascal Lorance, Ifremer, Nantes, F (pascal.lorance@ifremer.fr) DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009

  9. 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) Contacts:Chrissi-Yianna Politou, HCMR (c-y@ath.hcmr.gr) Juan Gil, IEO, Cadix, ES (juan.gil@cd.ieo.es) Pascal Lorance, Ifremer, Nantes, FR (pascal.lorance@ifremer.fr) Ivone Figueiredo, IPIMAR, Lisbon, PT (ivonefig@ipimar.pt) DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009

  10. 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 Contact: Benjamin Planque, IMR, Tromsø, NO benjamin.planque@imr.no DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009

  11. 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 Contact: Fernando Gonzales, IEO, Vigo, ES fernando.gonzalez@vi.ieo.es DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009

  12. Reviews Data Preliminary report Case study workshop Case study reports (April 2010) WP2 DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009

  13. 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

  14. 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

  15. 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 DEEPFISHMAN Stakeholder workshop Brussels, 29-30 June 2009
