Author:  Reese-Hansen L, M. Nelitz, and E. Parkinson

Old Reference Number:  123

Old Reference System:  Fisheries Management Report (FMR)

Date Published:  Jan 2012

Report ID:  41066

Audience:  Government and Public

This paper discusses the underlying science, regulatory authority, evaluation procedures, and management requirements supporting designation of Temperature Sensitive Streams. The objectives of this paper are to summarize the science and consider alternative sources of information / data for designation, propose a candidate designation procedure, and present a proposal that can be used to solicit feedback from scientists on the defensibility of information requirements and managers on the feasibility of the procedure. In pursuing these objectives, the overall goal of this paper is to raise awareness and encourage support for designation of Temperature Sensitive Streams in British Columbia, especially in light of the potential for increased thermal vulnerability due to climate change.
