Summary

A Meeting of the Newfoundland and Labrador Regional Advisory Process (RAP) on Groundfish was held 27-30 March and 2-5 and 10th April 2007 in St. John’s, Newfoundland.  A full assessment of the stock status of Northern (2J3KL) cod was carried out based on questions posed in the Terms of Reference (ToR) provided by Fisheries and Aquaculture Management.  As part of the process, an overview of environmental conditions on the Newfoundland and Labrador shelf during 2006 was presented. Participants included DFO staff from Science and fisheries and Aquaculture Management branches, representatives of the fishing industry (harvesters and the FFAW) and scientists from Memorial University. The meeting rapporteur was D.B. Atkinson.

These proceedings contain a summary of working papers/PowerPoint presentations/EXCEL spreadsheet presentations as well as summaries of the related discussions. Also included as appendices are the ToR, a list of participants, a list of all working papers/PowerPoint presentations/EXCEL spreadsheet presentations available during the meeting, and the research recommendations.  The Proceedings do not necessarily follow the chronological order of discussions but instead are organized to match the flow of the draft agenda.

Additional information on the 2007 assessment of 2J3KL cod is available in the CSAS research document series and Science Advisory Report.
