The draft IFMPs set out the policy framework that guides decision making, 
general objectives relating to management of stocks of concern, enhancement and 
enforcement, as well as decision guidelines for a range of fisheries.  

Section 13 of the IFMPs outline the Species Specific Fishing Plans, which 
describe fisheries plans for each of the salmon species and the management 
units and major fishery areas for each species.  This section includes the 
relevant information on management approach, decision guidelines and specific 
management measures, as well as, information related to First Nations, 
commercial and recreational fishing plans for each fishery.  

During March and April, the Department will be meeting with First Nations and

the draft IFMPs as part of the IFMP consultation process.
