MPI is responsible for administering the Fisheries Act 1996 (the Act) and its supporting regulations. The Act aims to allow commercial, recreational and customary fishers access to resources while ensuring fish stocks are managed sustainably. Sustainable catch levels determine how many fish can be harvested.
The overall objective of this project is to update the assessment of orange roughy stocks, including an acoustic survey of specific areas in winter 2016.
Specific objectives are to carry out a descriptive analysis of the commercial catch and effort data, survey data and observer data for orange roughy on the Northwest Chatham Rise and in the East & South Chatham Rise; and to complete stock assessments including estimating biomass and sustainable yields, the status of the stocks in relation to management reference points and future projections of stock status as required to support management.
MPI is seeking proposals from capable suppliers with the experience, resources and expertise to meet the requirements of this RFP. This includes carrying out the project according to high professional, ethical and scientific standards. Suitability of the proposed methodology, approach and techniques, including feasibility of the intended approach, is a key criterion. Robust health and safety management must also be demonstrated.
The project is expected to deliver by 30 June 2017. The outputs will support the ongoing sustainable management of orange roughy fisheries.
