At WG EMM-2013 the Working Group agreed that it would be useful to have a consolidated summary of information related to the krill fishery in a similar format to the fishery reports that are completed for finfish fisheries in WG-FSA (www.ccamlr.org/node/75667).
The Secretariat agreed to coordinate the preparation of a draft krill fishery report for consideration at WG EMM-14 that would be similar in content to a finfish Fishery Report.
Upon the recommendations from WG EMM-14 the report includes the same information provided in the previous report (i.e. an introduction on the background of the fishery, an inventory of catch and SISO data, including incidental mortality of marine mammals and seabirds as well as the CCAMLR approach to management of the krill fishery) with the addition of monthly catch maps for the last complete seasons (2014) and the current incomplete season (2015), an inventory of observer data effort since 2011 and a comparison bycatch occurrence in C1 and SISO data.
