This document provides a short review of past OMPs that have been developed to set annual TACs for the west coast rock lobster fishery. A new OMP will shortly be developed for the fishery which will be used to set TACs (and their spatial/user-group breakdown) for the 2011/2012+ seasons. This will be the fifth OMP developed for this fishery. A summary of previous OMPs and their associated management targets is provided in this document.
