Summary

These Proceedings summarize the relevant discussions and key conclusions that resulted from a Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO), Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) Regional Advisory meeting of January 10, 2012 at the Pacific Biological Station in Nanaimo, B.C. A science advisory report focusing on the status of Pacific Sardine summer seasonal abundance and migration, based on observations from the most recent west coast of Vancouver Island survey, and harvest options for the 2012/2013 fishing season were presented for peer review.

In-person and web-based participation included DFO Science, Fisheries and Aquatic Management (FAM) sectors staff; external participants from First Nations, the Province of British Columbia, the commercial and recreational fishing sectors, and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) colleagues.

The conclusions and advice resulting from this review will form the science advisory report providing advice to FAM on harvest options for the 2012/2013 fishing season

The science advisory report will be made publicly available on the CSAS Science Advisory Schedule.
