Results on the Development of Candidate Management Procedures for the Canadian Pollock in the in the Western Component (4Xopqrs+5Zc) for the May 2011 Meeting

Results for five different Candidate Management Procedures (CMPs) for pollock which contrast achievable performance (catch vs resource recovery and catch vs time) trade-offs in relation to greater/lesser conservatism and earlier/later pain in terms of catch allocation reductions if needed. The results incorporate recent decisions concerning the reporting of performance statistics and the addition of further operating models (OMs) which reflect better future recruitment.
