  • Glass Sponge Aggregations in Howe Sound
    Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat Pacific Region Science Response 2018/032 GLASS SPONGE AGGREGATIONS IN HOWE SOUND: LOCATIONS, REEF STATUS, AND ECOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE ASSESSMENT Context The protection of benthic communities and features falls within the mandate of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) at the national level under the Oceans Act, Fisheries Act, and under ratified international agreements. The plan to meet conservation targets includes advancing Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (OEABCM), such as fishing closures, to protect sensitive sponge and coral aggregations. Glass sponge reefs are unique habitats found along the Pacific coast of Canada and the United States with historic, ecological, and economic value. They link benthic and pelagic environments by playing important roles in filtration and carbon and nitrogen processing, and acting as silica sinks (Chu et al. 2011, Tréguer and De La Rocha 2013, Kahn et al. 2015). They also form habitat for diverse communities of invertebrates and fish, including those of economic importance (Cook et al. 2008, Chu and Leys 2010, Dunham et al. 2015, 2018). Over the past 15 years, nine glass sponge reef complexes were discovered and mapped in the Strait of Georgia and Howe Sound using remote sensing (Conway et al. 2004, 2005, and 2007) and subsequently ground-truthed by DFO Science using standardized visual survey methods in 2012-2013. In 2014, DFO requested that fishers using bottom-contact gear voluntarily avoid these areas while DFO consulted on formal protection measures. After reviewing important input from the consultation process with First Nations, commercial and recreational fishers, and conservation organizations, formal bottom-contact fishing closures were established, effective June 12, 2015.

  • Glass Sponge Aggregations in Howe Sound: Locations, Reef Status, and Ecological Significance Assessment
    Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat Pacific Region Science Response 2017/nnn GLASS SPONGE AGGREGATIONS IN HOWE SOUND: LOCATIONS, REEF STATUS, AND ECOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE ASSESSMENT Context The protection of benthic communities and features falls within mandate of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) at the national level under the Fisheries Act and under ratified international agreements. Canada’s National Conservation Plan was launched in 2011 to advance progress in three priority areas, including conserving and restoring Canada’s lands and waters through safeguarding and enhancing biodiversity and ecosystems through conservation and stewardship actions. The plan to meet these targets includes advancing Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (OEABCM), such as fishing closures, to protect sensitive sponge and coral concentrations. To that end, DFO Fisheries Management committed to implementing at least five new conservation-based fishing closures by 2020. Glass sponge reefs are unique habitats found along the Pacific coast of Canada and the United States with historic, ecological, and economic value. They provide a link between benthic and pelagic environments, play an important role in filtration and carbon and nitrogen processing, act as silica sinks, and form habitat for diverse communities of invertebrates and fish, including those of economic importance (Cook et al. 2008, Chu and Leys 2010, Chu et al. 2011, Tréguer and De La Rocha 2013, Kahn et al. 2015, Dunham et al. 2015, 2017).

  • Conservation Options 1
    Conservation Options 1. Methodology 2. Priority Conservation Area (PCA) categories 3. Current and future human use within PCAs To identify priority conservation areas we conducted a two-part analysis: 1.) identify areas of high ecological value, and 2.) overlay these areas with existing or future human activities to identify conservation needs and opportunities. This document outlines the methods associated with part 2.). The Priority Areas document outlines the methods associated with part 1.). 1. Overlay areas of high ecological value with current and future human activities to identify conservation needs and opportunities Part 1 of our analysis identified areas of high marine ecological value in Atl’ka7tsem/Howe Sound. Many of these areas overlap with existing human activity and are therefore not suitable for formal conservation protection (e.g. marine protected areas). However, these areas present excellent opportunities for employing best management and stewardship practices. Accordingly, CORI and DSF staff conducted an assessment of current and future human activities to categorize the high ecological areas into the following groups: Category Blue Criteria: i. High ecological value ii. Insufficient current protection iii. Minimal current and future human activity, use and development Outcomes: i. Promote marine protection (e.g. no-take marine reserve, marine protected area designation, other effective area-based conservation measurements Category Green Criteria: i. High ecological value ii. Existing or potential future medium to high human use, activity and development Outcomes: i. Promote management and stewardship best practices and ecosystem restoration Given these criteria points, assigning a category depended not only on the ecological attributes present, but also the existing and potential future development proposed for the area.

  • Stewardship and Governance
    OCEAN WATCH | Átl’ḵa7tsem / Txwnéwu7ts / Howe Sound 2020 STEWARDSHIP AND GOVERNANCE Stewardship and Governance A view over Átl’ḵa7tsem/ Txwnéwu7ts/Howe Sound. (Credit: Amanda Weltman) OCEAN WATCH | Átl’ḵa7tsem / Txwnéwu7ts / Howe Sound 2020 STEWARDSHIP AND GOVERNANCE Summary In 2017, the OWHS report noted a distinct lack of comprehensive, region-wide planning to manage growth and development, while protecting the environ- ment. Today, many steps have been taken to bring this vision closer to fruition. Local governments have committed to support and develop the Atl’ḵa7tsem/ Howe Sound Marine Reference Guide (MRG), as recommended in the OWHS 2017 Action Plan. The MRG team is creating an online interactive map that displays spatial data associated with the Sound’s marine environment and watersheds to support decision making, marine social planning and commun- ity education. The Ocean Watch Task Force (OWTF), formed by the Howe Sound Community Forum (HSCF) and comprised of locally elected government representatives, planning staff, NGOs and First Nations, worked to advance relevant actions proposed in the OWHS 2017. The OWTF advanced the development of the MRG and, with support from Ocean Wise, created the Strategic Plan to guide local government protection of the Átl’ḵa7tsem/Txwnéwu7ts/Howe Sound region over the next three years (2019–2021). In addition, efforts continue towards the goal of having Átl’ḵa7tsem/Txwnéwu7ts/Howe Sound designated as a UNESCO biosphere region. Within the Sound, there has been an expansion of protected areas. In 2019, eight new marine refuge areas were created to protect nine glass sponge reefs placed under voluntary protection in 2017, bringing the total number of pro- tected glass sponge reefs in Átl’ḵa7tsem/Txwnéwu7ts/Howe Sound to 11.
