  • Guidelines for Electrofishing Waters Containing Salmonids Listed Under
    National Guidelines for Electrofishing Waters Marine Fisheries Containing Salmonids Listed Under Service the Endangered Species Act June 2000 Purpose and Scope The purpose of this document is to provide guidelines for the safe use of backpack electrofishing in waters containing salmonids listed by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). It is expected that these guidelines will help improve electrofishing technique in ways which will reduce fish injury and increase electrofishing efficiency. These guidelines and sampling protocol were developed from NMFS research experience and input from specialists in the electrofishing industry and fishery researchers. This document outlines electrofishing procedures and guidelines that NMFS has determined to be necessary and advisable when working in freshwater systems where threatened or endangered salmon and steelhead may be found. As such, the guidelines provide a basis for reviewing proposed electrofishing activities submitted to NMFS in the context of ESA Section 10 permit applications as well as scientific research activities proposed for coverage under an ESA Section 4(d) rule. These guidelines specifically address the use of backpack electrofishers for sampling juvenile or adult salmon and steelhead that are not in spawning condition. Electrofishing in the vicinity of adult salmonids in spawning condition and electrofishing near redds are not discussed as there is no justifiable basis for permitting these activities except in very limited situations (e.g., collecting brood stock, fish rescue, etc.). The guidelines also address sampling and fish handling protocols typically employed in electrofishing studies. While the guidelines contain many specifics, they are not intended to serve as an electrofishing manual and do not eliminate the need for good judgement in the field.

    FOURTEENTH CONGRESS 1 7 JUN 30 PZ 155 OF THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES ) FIRST REGULAR SESSION 1 >,e.,I., ' '% SENATE ' ' 4;) ~~~~~lV~*: Senate Bill No. 171 , Introduced by Sen. M.A.Madrigal EXPLANATORY NOTE The Tubbataha Reef is located within Central Sulu Sea. It is part of the Sulu West Sea Marine Triangle under the jurisdiction of Cagayancillo, Palawan. It is made up of two atolls, the North Reef and South Reef. The Tubbataha Reef is home to seven (7) species of seagrasses, which are food for the endangered marine turtle, and seventy-one (71) algae, and four hundred seventy-nine species of marine fishes. Eighty-six percent (86%) of the total coral species in the Philippines are found in Tubbataha Reef area. The fish biomass in the Tubbataha Reef is more than average. It is the rookery of twenty-three species of migratory and resident sea birds, some of which is globally threatened. It is a nesting ground for two species of endangered marine turtles. Due to its biodiversity and ecological significance, the Tubbataha Reef Natural Park was declared a protected sanctuary in August 2006 through Presidential Proclamation No. 1126. In line with the State's policy of securing for the Filipino people of present and future generations the perpetual existence of all native plants and animals, it is incumbent upon the Congress to enact a law to provide for the management, protection, sustainable development and rehabilitation of the Tubattaha Reef Natural Park. This shall be established within the framework of the National Integrated Protected Area System (NIPAS) Act, or Republic Act of 7586, while considering the welfare and recognizing the rights of all the communities living therein especially the indigenous peoples.
