Following a review by DFO Newfoundland and Labrador Region's regulatory staff, the Variation Order (Hatton Basin Conservation Area Closure), has been re-formatted, resulting in a minor change of its Shrimp fishing schedule. Please note that this is an administrative change only and the change does not affect the existing close times, vessel classes and closure coordinates of the Hatton Basin Conservation Area.

The Regional Director General, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Newfoundland and Labrador Region gives notice that Variation Order 2017-304 has been revoked and Variation Order 2018-404 comes into effect on December 18, 2018.
