Current (OMP-08) yield drop expectations relative to revised MSC Target Reference Points for Low Trophic Level species.

In light of the proposed changes to management requirements for MSC certification of LTL species, the OMP-08 control parameters were changed to get expectations of 75�. Estimates of what the yield loss for the directed sardine and anchovy fisheries would be relative to current OMP-08 expectations are reported in Table 1 in this document.
