This document summarises the OMP 2011 to be used to set allocations for various sectors and super-areas for the 2011+ seasons for the West Coast rock lobster fishery. This document provides details of the three main components of OMP 2011: 1) how data are combined across the five super-areas (Area 1-2, Area 3-4, Area 5-6, Area 7 and Area 8+) for input into the OMP; 2) the OMP formulae which provide the global TAC recommendation; and 3) the manner in which the global TAC is split amongst the super-areas and different sectors.
