Chairperson: Nicholas Komick

Editors: Erika Anderson, Nicholas Komick

Summary

These proceedings summarize the relevant discussions and conclusions that resulted from a Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Canadian Science Advisory Regional Peer Review meeting on October 25-26, 2018 at the Pacific Biological Station in Nanaimo, B.C. A working paper on the criteria and procedure for managing changes to, and process for updating, conservation unit characterizations for the five Pacific salmon species was presented for peer review.

The major topics discussed were the types of changes (administrative or substantive), development of the framework (external involvement, conservation unit (CU) data management categories, treatment of enhanced salmon in CUs, CU naming conventions, CU profiles), and related data storage within the New Salmon Escapement Database System (NuSEDS).

In-person and web-based participation included Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Science, Salmon Enhancement Program, and Policy staff, First Nations, and non-governmental organizations. The Research Document and Proceedings will be made publicly available on the Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) website.
