Amended Decision Framework for Setting the TACC

STEP 1: EGG PRODUCTION

Is the egg production estimate above the limit reference point?


NOno

 

Reduce or maintain the TACC to return the egg production to above the limit reference point within two years, with a 75% probability

YES 
 yes


STEP 2: AVAILABLE BIOMASS

Is the available biomass at the target?

NO no

 

Adopt a TACC that achieves the target by 2020/21

YES 
 yes


Adopt a TACC that maintains the available biomass at the target

STEP 3: RAW CPUE

Is the two-year trend in CPUE consistently contradicting the two-year trend in available biomass?

NO no

 

Adopt proposed TACC

YES 
 yes
