  • Introduction
    Workshop Summary Report Salish Sea Fish Assemblage Workshop September 18th 2018 Seattle, Washington Prepared by Zoe van Duivenbode Introduction Changes in the composition and abundance of fish assemblages within the Salish Sea region have long been a topic of interest for management, as they can result in a variety of possible consequences associated with species/population management, habitat conservation, and ecological shifts. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), and SeaDoc Society organized a workshop to gather managers, researchers, and policy-makers involved in Salish Sea fish assemblages to share and discuss evidence of fish community change, impacts of change on species and ecosystem recovery, and to align management priorities and identify research needs. Further, the idea for a workshop originally was identified within the Endangered Species Act Recovery Plan for yelloweye rockfish and bocaccio of the Puget Sound/Georgia Basin (NMFS 2017)1. It became clear that assessing rockfish assemblage change without the context of assessing available information on full fish assemblage change would be insufficient for addressing recovery needs. The goal of the workshop was to identify relevant time-series data, evaluate current research, and discuss how existing efforts may contribute to future management strategies. In addition to the host agencies, workshop participants represented a collection of agencies and organizations including the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Puget Sound Restoration Fund, Seattle Aquarium, Samish Tribe’s Department of Natural Resources, Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe, Washington Department of Ecology, WDFW, University of Washington and more (see appendix for full list of participants and organizations).

By way of catching up, we have produced a Summer double issue and have the good fortune to be able to publish with a color cover. Coinciding with the Santa Barbara relocation is the appointment, by the Board of Directors, of the first members of the HDS USA Advisory Board. This distinguished group of senior diving professionals, with extensive backgrounds in diving medicine, technical development, commercial, military and sports diving, bring in excess of 300 years of diving experience to the Society. Most of their biographies are the size of town phone directories, and have had to be severely edited for publication. We are honored and gratefulfortheir willing offers of service, and hope that we have done their biographies justice. Details start on page 4. The recently introduced, Founding Benefactor class of membership has proven to be very popular with over half of the thirty available memberships already taken. An opportunity still exists to acquire one of these unique memberships and details of it's benefits are noted on page 9. On the international front, the ongoing formation of the HDS USA as a nonprofit corporation has, by law, changed the conditions that govern our relationship with the HDS in UK.
