This requirement is for: Fisheries and Oceans Canada
Title
Fixed-Gear Sentinel Fishery in NAFO Fishing Area 4S
Introduction
These sentinel surveys are a useful part of the cod stock assessment in the Northern Gulf of St Lawrence. They have been performed annually since 1995. Although the sentinel program has several components, this statement of work covers only gillnet and longline surveys in Quebec (NAFO fishing area 4S).
The main goal of the survey is to develop an independent abundance indicator for the fishery, which will be used to adjust total allowable catch (TAC) annually. Sentinel fishery data are available on the St. Lawrence Global Observatory (SLGO) website: Sentinel Fisheries – About | SLGO
Contractor Requirements
Perform a sentinel fishery using gillnets and longlines, and weigh and measure the cod caught. Collect otolith samples and perform condition measurements. The contractor MUST:
- Ensure sampling at sea is done by fishers with a fixed-gear commercial cod licence for fishing area 4S;
- Ensure project coordination, and collect, enter, validate and transmit the data collected at sea and on land; and
- Have qualified technicians on board to collect the requested data and biological samples required for the needs of Fisheries and Oceans Canada.
