Proceedings of the Pacific regional peer review on the pre-COSEWIC assessment of Southern British Columbia Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) populations; March 6-8, 2013

Chairperson: Sean MacConnachie
Editor: Mary Thiess

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 Peer Review meeting held March 6-8, 2013 at the Pacific Biological Station in Nanaimo, B.C.  A working paper focusing on a pre-COSEWIC review of data relevant to the assessment of status for populations of southern British Columbia Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) was presented for peer review.

In-person and web-based participants included DFO Science, Ecosystem Management and Fisheries Management staff from regional and national offices, as well as staff from the Province of BC, members of the southern BC Chinook Technical Working Group and external participants from First Nations, the commercial and recreational fishing industries, and environmental non-governmental organizations.

The conclusions and advice resulting from this review will be incorporated into the Research Document, which will be made publicly available on the Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) website. Note that because this is primarily a presentation of data, there will not be a Science Advisory Report (SAR) generated from this process.
