    Description

    OBJECTIVES OF THE REQUIREMENT

    Fisheries and Oceans Canada requires up to 13 Standing Offers to carry out work associated with the First Nations Food, Social & Ceremonial (FSC) fishery and the Recreational fishery. Catch Monitoring activities are based throughout several geographical areas and includes multiple sites on the Fraser River and Thompson River watersheds within the British Columbia Interior (BCI) area. The Offeror and their resources (monitors) are required to carry out the work as described under the tasks section of the applicable Appendix based on project name and geographical location, and oversee the work to ensure it is performed properly and completely.

    BACKGROUND

    The Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) has a mandate to lead the federal role in managing Canada's fisheries and safeguarding its waters. DFO works with First Nations and stakeholders to manage the salmon harvest and ensure long-term conservation requirements are met. Reliable, timely, and accessible fisheries information is the foundation of sustainable management. Key pieces of information required for management include estimates of catch and effort and DFO requires fisheries Monitors to collect information to produce estimates of catch. Monitors interview fishers to collect harvest and release information and monitor fishing effort. Information is then forwarded to DFO.

    PERIOD OF STANDING OFFER

    The period for making call-ups against the Standing Offer is from Offer Award to March 31, 2018, with four (4) options to extend the Standing Offer, each for an additional one (1) year period.
