Document format: pdf

Publisher: Fisheries and Oceans Canada

Creation date: February 15, 2002

The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to Fisheries Management officers on their roles and responsibilities, with respect to consideration of fisheries resource use information, when responding to requests for the review of site applications for aquaculture operations. Fisheries resource use considerations include potential impacts on socio-economics such as access an area for fishing and access to the fish in an area. It is also intended to raise awareness of:

the policy environment in which the Department is operating with respect to aquaculture and the potential impact on fisheries resource use; and

the fisheries resource use-related information needed to inform the Department's review and assessment of aquaculture site applications.
