Summary This report documents the initial full assessment audit findings for Marine Harvest Canada’s Monday Rock farm site, a single site cage system for ongrowing Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) from smolt to harvest. The Monday Rock farm is part of Marine Harvest Canada, which is a publically listed company. Marine Harvest Canada is producing more than half of the farmed salmon exported from British Columbia each year. Marine Harvest Canada employs 500 people. The audit was conducted to the Aquaculture Stewardship Council Version 1.0 Certification and Accreditation Requirements (CAR V1.0 March 2012). The audit was a single site farm, Monday Rock, Which grows Atlantic salmon (Salmo Salar) from smolt input to the point of harvest. The site visit was conducted from the 9th November – 12th November 2015 A total of 2 major and 5 minor non-conformities were raised. A table of non-conformances is presented in the report. Two Variation Requests (VR’s) were submitted relating to the audit.

Background on the Applicant Farm Marine Harvest Canada globally produces one-fifth of the world’s farm-raised salmon at facilities in Norway, Scotland, Canada, Chile, Ireland and the Faroe Islands. Globally, they employ over 10 000 people, and are publicly traded on the New York and Oslo Stock Exchange. In Canada, farms operate on the coast of British Columbia and Vancouver Island, where 500 people produce 45,000 tonnes of Atlantic salmon each year. At this time of report writing, Marine Harvest Canada has three farms that are ASC Certified; Marsh Bay, Duncan and Doyle. Marine Harvest Canada is four-star certified to the Global Aquaculture Alliance Best Aquaculture Practices. Marine Harvest Canada has a number of hatchery sites - Dalrymple and Ocean Falls are the hatcheries and Big Tree Creek facility is the egg providers. Marine Harvest Canada is producing more than half of the farmed salmon exported form British Columbia each year. Around 500 employees are based in Campbell River were the majority of production and administrative functions are based. There are 30-35 active marine sites per cycle from 5 managed production areas in BC. Smolts are supplied by 4 Marine Harvest Canada freshwater sites in total. Finished product is processed by two Marine Harvest Canada processing units. All feed is supplied by Skretting at the sea sites. The main markets for the finished products are Canada, United States and Asia. There are many working partnerships with First Nations that also include business opportunities. Marine Harvest Canada has an ethos in helping build strong communities through significant sponsorships, donations and supports community organizations including service groups, sports teams, social programs and salmon enhancement societies. Water conservation is a high priority for all Marine Harvest Canada Hatcheries use recirculation technologies that have been adopted to reduce fresh water consumption by up to 95 percent. Monday Rock is a soft bottomed site with 10 30mx30m steel cages with sapphire nets. There are 5 employees on this site plus the site manager. There are cameras in each pen and a central barge based feeding system. Fish were stocked in November 2014 and harvest is expected in April 2016. Sites are subject to DFO inspections that are un-announced. Document: ASC Assessment Reporting Template V1.0 page 4 Date of issue: May 2014 4. Scope The audit was conducted to the Aquaculture Stewardship Council Certification Version 1.0 Certification and Accreditation Requirements (CAR V1.0 March 2012) against the Salmon Standard V1 (June 2012). The audit was a single marine site, Monday Rock Farm, that on-grows Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) from smolt input to the point of harvest. CAR Version Version 1.0 Standard Salmon Standard V.1.0 June 2012 Species Atlantic salmon (Salmo Salar) Scope of Audit Single site marine cage fish farm (excluding cages 7 and 8 – as a result of VR 140) Company Name: Marine Harvest Canada Address: 124-1334 Island Hwy City/State: Campbell River, Vancouver Island Province/Country: BC Canada Postal Code : V9W 8C9 Company Email [email protected] Application Status: Single Site Farm : Monday Rock Farm Farm Address: Quatsino Sound, 50 29’5”N 127 52’48”W Farm Activity: On growing of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Annual Production 3240 metric tons maximum standing stock Volume Receiving Water : Marine Harvest Canada is licensed to operate five salmon farms in Quatsino Sound, though only four are currently operational. Stocking and fallowing are coordinated at the four sites. No other company operates salmon farms in Quatsino Sound. The area is home to all species of Pacific salmon. Heavy rainfalls in the area, combined with logging activity can result in an influx of nutrients. The water quality in Quatsino Sound can be considered very good, and remains largely unaffected by the salmon farming sector 5.

To investigate the monitoring potential of histological lesions, field populations were sampled in Holberg Inlet and Quatsino Sound, British Columbia, from benthic habitats affected by the submarine discharge of copper-mine tailings, and from a reference site in Mill Bay, Saanich Inlet. Based on a quantitative analysis of the digestive gland, ctenidia, kidney, gonad and stomach, the relationship between histological variation and site, size, season, sex and parasitism was explored. The relationship between occurrence of histological lesions in this species and further ecological consequences of mine- tailings discharge was also explored by comparing population characteristics of clams living in deposited tailings with clams from the reference site.

CIRCULAR NO.85 FEBRUARY 1968 INTRODUCTION The Fisheries Research Board of Canada, with the aid of funds provided by the Industrial Development Service of the Department of Fisheries, con- f . tinued to carry out exploration for new shrimp grounds in 1967. Two observers ^ from the Biological Station at Nanaimo, British Columbia, were aboard a ^ . chartered vessel from July 4 to September 9, 1967. The objective of the survey was to find concentrations of shrimp on the outer continental shelf of British Columbia. The programme, consisted of studying areas considered to have commercial potential and re-assessing the potential of grounds found in past shrimp explorations. VESSEL AND EXTENT OF SURVEY The commercial trawler M.V. Ocean Traveller, under Captain Frank Gale, was chartered to carry out the programme. The vessel is a conventional wooden-hulled combination vessel of 80 gross tons (63 ft keel length) powered by a 220 hp diesel engine. Deck equipment included a hydraulic powered combination seine-trawl winch and a hydraulic net reel, conven tionally rigged for double gear trawling* Each winch drum carried approximately 400 fathoms of 9/16" galvanized wire. Auxiliary equipment included an Ekolite 9B sounder, radar, loran and radios. (This was the same captain and vessel that conducted the Industrial Development Service exploratory groundfish surveys in.1965 and 1966).
