DFO advises harvesters that amended licence conditions for both the NAFO Divisions 2J3KL Northern cod Stewardship/By-catch fishery and the 2016 NAFO Divisions 2J3KL4R Cod Quality pilot project are now available. 

Amended licence conditions will be in effect for the fishing period commencing September 05, 2016, and are available through DFO’s National On-line Licencing System. After September 04,  2016, previously issued licence conditions for both these fisheries will no longer be valid.

Fish harvesters are again reminded that they must renew their groundfish licence and arrange At-Sea Observer coverage services prior to fishing.

Further details on the management measures for this fishery can be found online at the Departmental website:
