A PA-compliant Rebuilding Plan for Subarea 2 + Divisions 3KLMNO Greenland Halibut Based on the 2005 NAFO Assessment By
In September 2003 NAFO Fisheries Commission put in place a 15 year rebuilding plan for NAFO Subarea 2 + Divisions 3KLMNO Greenland halibut involving a step-wise reduction in TAC commencing in 2004. Previous analysis has shown that the FC rebuilding plan is not robust to uncertainty in the strength o...

In September 2003 NAFO Fisheries Commission put in place a 15 year rebuilding plan for NAFO Subarea 2 + Divisions 3KLMNO Greenland halibut involving a step-wise reduction in TAC commencing in 2004.
