2.3 Endangered, Threatened and Protected (ETP) species<br />
Scoring criteria Scoring guidepost 60 Scoring guidepost 80 Scoring guidepost 100<br />
2.3.1 Status: The fishery<br />
meets<br />
national and<br />
international<br />
requirements for<br />
protection<br />
of ETP species.<br />
The fishery does not<br />
pose a risk of serious<br />
or<br />
irreversible harm to<br />
ETP<br />
species and does not<br />
hinder recovery of<br />
ETP<br />
species.<br />
(1-60) Known effects of the<br />
fishery are likely to be within<br />
limits of national and<br />
international requirements for<br />
protection of ETP species.<br />
(2-60) Known direct effects are<br />
unlikely to create unacceptable<br />
impacts to ETP species.<br />
(1-80) The effects of the fishery<br />
are known and are highly likely<br />
to be within limits of national and<br />
international requirements for<br />
protection of ETP species.<br />
(2-80) Direct effects are highly<br />
unlikely to create unacceptable<br />
impacts to ETP species.<br />
(3-80) Indirect effects have been<br />
considered and are thought to<br />
be unlikely to create<br />
unacceptable impacts.<br />
(1-100) There is a high degree of<br />
certainty that the effects of the<br />
fishery are within limits of<br />
national and international<br />
requirements for protection of<br />
ETP species.<br />
(2-100) There is a high degree of<br />
confidence that there are no<br />
significant detrimental effects<br />
(direct and indirect) of the fishery<br />
on ETP species.<br />
Scoring comments<br />
Because the UoC fishes with rod and line, it is considered impossible that marine mammals are caught. There is a high degree of certainty that<br />
the effects of the fishery are within limits of national and international requirements for protection of ETP species.<br />
Very occasionally a bird might accidentally get tangled up in a fishing line. When this happens the bird will immediately be released and most<br />
probably will survive the incident. Indirect effects have been considered and are thought to be unlikely to create unacceptable impacts.<br />
