EIFAC/XXII/2002/2

1. Opening of the Session

The Chairperson of EIFAC, Mr R. Müller, opened the Session of the Executive Committee of EIFAC on 23 May at 10.30 hrs. He invited the participants to pay tribute to Mrs Maria Bninska, long-standing delegate to EIFAC and Vice-Chairperson, who died on 18 March 2001, and to Mr William (Bill) Dill, the first Secretary of EIFAC, who died on 5 December 2000.

2. Place and Date of Twenty-second Session

On 12 April 2001 the British authorities had informed FAO that they were prepared to host the Twenty-second Session of EIFAC in Windermere from 12 to 19 June 2002.

The following timetable was proposed:

Tuesday, 11 June	Arrival
Wednesday - Saturday (a.m.) 12-15 June	Opening Session and Symposium
Saturday, 15 June (p.m.)	Visit to the Freshwater Biological Association
Sunday, 16 June	Excursion
Monday/Wednesday, 17-19 June	EIFAC Session
Thursday, 20 June	Departure

Ad hoc meetings of Working Parties are envisaged during the Symposium and on Wednesday, 19 June (p.m.)

Dates and proposed timetable were agreed.

The British authorities had nominated Mr P. Hickley as Liaison Officer. A letter of Agreement and Memorandum of Responsibilities are under preparation and will be sent from FAO to the official UK contacts soon.

Mr P. Hickley proposed as venue of the Session and the Symposium the Lowwood Hotel, Lake Windermere. This was agreed upon.

3. Preparations for the Symposium

So far, proposals for only four papers and two posters have been received.

The meeting undertook to draft a short "Final Call for Papers" for distribution through electronic and conventional channels as soon as possible. For more clarity, the title of the Symposium was amended to read "Inland Fisheries Management and the Aquatic Environment: The Effects of Fisheries Management on Freshwater Ecosystems". A new deadline for receiving abstracts was set for 15 September 2001.

In order to reduce the amount of material to be reproduced before and during the Symposium, it was agreed that authors should be instructed to prepare a one-page summary of their papers for distribution. They may also want to make a certain number of copies of their full paper available at the Symposium.

It was suggested that at the beginning of October, Organizers and Secretariat should meet in Windermere to agree on the detailed structure of the Symposium, and to look into details of the meeting facilities and arrangements.

Action: H. Naeve

4. Meeting of FAO and Non-FAO Regional Fisheries Bodies

The report of the Second Meeting of FAO and Non-FAO Regional Fishery Bodies or Arrangements, held in Rome, 20-21 February 2001, was noted, as well as the paper on Indicators to Assess the Performance of FAO and Non-FAO Regional Fishery Bodies, presented at that meeting. Members of EIFAC EXCOM underlined that EIFAC was a purely advisory body with no enforcement power, and therefore difficult to evaluate along the same lines as fishery bodies having regulatory power. A proposal for performance assessment should be presented to the next Session of EIFAC.

Action: R. Müller

5. Danube Sturgeons - Fisheries Management under CITES Criteria

Mr I. Navodaru (Romania) informed the EIFAC Secretariat that Romania has signed the CITES convention. He reported that an assessment is needed of the sturgeon stock at basin or biogeographical level. Mr Navodaru asked EIFAC to give support to this task. The meeting expressed the view that this was not an isolated problem of Romania, but rather a problem of the Black Sea countries that should be tackled at regional level. Reference was made to the mandates of the newly revived Danube Fisheries Commission and General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM), whose mandate includes the Black Sea.

Sturgeons are recognized as a valuable commodity, especially those associated with the Danube, Black Sea, Caspian Sea and Adriatic Sea. However, these species are listed on the CITES Convention Appendix II and thus member countries have to demonstrate good management practice to be allowed to export sturgeon products. This has proven difficult because of a paucity of information on catch and status of the fisheries. It is recommended that EIFAC, jointly with GFCM establish a Working Party on Management of Sturgeon to address this problem and focus on sustainable exploitation of the remaining resources. To that end, the Secretary of EIFAC will contact the GFCM Secretariat. The proposed Terms of Reference for the Working group are as follows:

· To review existing information on the biology and distribution of sturgeon species in the Danube, Black Sea, Caspian Sea and Adriatic Sea regions.

· To determine long-term trends in the dynamics of the stocks and their exploitation patterns.

· To determine the current status of the stocks and exploitation based on catch composition (size, species and weight caught), effort, export licences and controls.

· Establish a comprehensive regional catch assessment programme to support rational manage-ment of the stocks.

· Review existing conservation and management measures and advise on appropriate interventions for the sustainable exploitation of the stocks, including enhancement through aquaculture pro-duction and stocking.

Action: H. Naeve

6. Report on Sub-Commission I

6.1 Publication of the report on Fishing gear selectivity

The manuscript on gillnetting for roach was sent to Mr I. Cowx to find out if it would qualify for publication in the journal "Fisheries Management and Ecology" published by Blackwell Oxford. In accordance with the reviewer's comments, the manuscript must be shortened considerably and modified to meet the standards of the journal. Mr R. Müller agreed to revise the paper and then re-submit it to FME, probably in autumn 2001.

6.2 Ad hoc Working Party on Eels (Convener: W. Dekker)

On behalf of EIFAC, Mr G. Rasmussen attended the ICES Annual Science Conference and Open Forum in Brugge, Belgium, in September 2000. The prime objective was to find out how work of the joint Working Party on Eels (a collaboration between EIFAC and ICES) could continue. The report of the 1999 Silkeborg Meeting of the EIFAC/ICES Working Group on Eels is available as ICES CM 2000/ACFM:6. As recommended by the Twenty-first Session of EIFAC, and in agreement with Mr Sparholt of ICES in February 2001, the Silkeborg report has now been published as EIFAC Occasional Paper No. 34. A Volume of Dana, dedicated to the Silkeborg Meeting and containing papers presented, was distributed to EIFAC National Correspondents and Officers.

ICES is very interested in continuing the cooperation on eels with EIFAC. The next meeting of the EIFAC/ICES Working Group on Eels is scheduled for 28-31 August 2001 at ICES Headquarters in Copenhagen. The EIFAC Convener of the Working Party on Eels, Mr W. Dekker, is informed accordingly. The Chairperson of EIFAC, Mr R. Müller, and the Secretary, Mr H. Naeve will attend the meeting.

6.3 Ad hoc Working Party on Fish Monitoring in Fresh Waters (Convener: P. Hickley)

Since the Twenty-first Session there has been little progress other than to establish some general principles of approach and to determine what the priorities of the Working Party should be.

From an initial overview of the literature and general practice the most important and effective sampling methods have been identified. Although fishing methods range from those which require only simple gear such as spears through to large vessels with enormous trawls it would appear that gillnetting, seine netting, electric fishing and angling are probably the most common capture techniques used for scientific purpose. In addition, non-capture methods using electronic fish counters and echo sounding equipment are important. Accordingly, the Working Party intends to focus on this suite of activities.

With regard to sampling strategy for freshwater fisheries, a layered component approach to the establishment of major monitoring programmes (e.g., at a national level) has been formulated. Core programmes should be built from several layers, all of which are synergistic, with the relative balance of effort between the layers being varied according to business needs. The programme layers are:

· indexing;
· temporal change detection;
· spatial comparisons, and
· protection of biodiversity (sentinel monitoring).

A link has been established with the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN). Input was provided to the final draft of the European Standard "Water quality - Sampling fish with electricity" which has now been distributed to member countries as a draft for public comment. New work for CEN is the development of a guidance standard on the scope and selection of sampling methods to provide practitioners with a mechanism for choosing the most appropriate monitoring method for reporting under the auspices of the Water Framework Directive. It was agreed that the EIFAC Working Party should assist in this work. A meeting of CEN is scheduled for 28 May 2001, and further liaison with the Working Party will take place thereafter.

It is intended to hold a meeting of the Working Party during the Twenty-second Session of EIFAC. Preparatory work will be to:

· confirm Working Party membership and willingness to participate;
· locate synopses of methods which are recent or under development, e.g., "Nordic Multi mesh Gillnets Sampling Gear" (Finland) and "Best Practice for Electric Fishing" (UK);
· produce outline for the guidance standard and identify associated task list, and
· prepare Terms of Reference for presentation at the Twenty-second Session of EIFAC.

6.4 Ad hoc Working Party on Stocking and Introductions (Convener: I. Cowx)

In the previous period, members of EIFAC contributed towards the EU review on Analysis of the Environmental and Economic Impact of Operations to Reinforce the Aquatic Fauna of Fresh Waters for Fishery Purposes. This document, which it is hoped will be released for public appraisal in the near future, provided a valuable insight into the state of knowledge of the results of operations concerning restocking of fish for fishery purposes (including leisure fishing) in fresh water, in particular concerning the impact on the environment and genetic interactions with wild populations in EU countries. An analysis of the economic importance of restocking, in particular for Community aquaculture companies, was also carried out.

Although similar data were collected from non-EU member states of EIFAC, the information collected was seriously limited and the Working Party is now attempting to carry out a similar study for non-European countries in an attempt to fill the gap. Questionnaires have been sent to EIFAC National Correspondents to collect the data needed, but the response to date has been poor. It is hoped that in the next few months the EIFAC correspondents or their alternates will coordinate the responses so the picture for all European countries can be gained. Unfortunately it has proven difficult to find alternative sources of data for Eastern European countries as databases in central agencies which collate such information are lacking.

It is anticipated that the results of the Working Party will be presented as a paper during the forthcoming EIFAC Symposium on Inland Fisheries Management and the Aquatic Environment.

Action: EIFAC National Correspondents

6.5 Synopsis on Alosa alosa and Alosa fallax

The draft of the synopsis is almost ready. At the last session, copies were handed over to Mr I. Cowx and the Secretary of EIFAC, Mr H. Naeve, to seek a publisher. It was decided to publish the document as FAO Fisheries Synopsis. Mr Naeve will contact Mr M. Aprahamian concerning format and terminology to be followed, and to agree on an editor to be charged with the finalization of the document.

Action: H. Naeve

6.6 Ad hoc Working Party on Mapping of Fish Distribution and Aquatic Habitat Quality
(Convener: A. Lelek)

No progress has been made during the intersessional period due to lack of funding and institutional support. Consequently, it was agreed to propose to the Twenty-second Session of EIFAC to discontinue this Working Party. It was noted, however, that a number of national exercises were underway regarding mapping of fish distribution and habitats. Mr A. Lelek should be invited to keep track of these initiatives and to possibly link emerging documents to the EIFAC Web Site.

Action: T. Brenner

7. Report on Sub-Commission II

7.1 Ad hoc Working Party on Fish Diseases and their Control (Convener: R. Richards)

The last activity of the Working Party "Fish Diseases and their Control" took place in September 1999 as a joint EIFAC/EAFP workshop on Health Management in Sturgeon and Carp Aquaculture. Mr U. Barg undertook to trace the outcome of the workshop. A follow-up meeting is being planned for September 2001 at the EAFP conference in Dublin. There have been no other activities in the interim.

Action: U. Barg

7.2 Ad hoc Working Party on Aquaculture and Aquatic Resources Management
(Convener: Y. Avnimelech)

The newly elected Convener, Mr Y. Avnimelech has prepared a work plan, which has been discussed among experts. The planned work will focus on water use efficiency of freshwater aquaculture systems. The three main topics are: production and water statistics; resources economy; and aquaculture options. The work is going to be implemented through expert consultations, and studies prepared by sub-groups. The ultimate goal of the Working Party is the elaboration of a comprehensive study on Aquatic Resources Utilization by Aquaculture. An ad hoc meeting of interested experts was recently organized during the International Workshop on Pond Aquaculture in Central and Eastern Europe in the Twenty-first Century, Vodnany, Czech Republic, 2-4 May 2001. Messrs Y. Avnimelech and L. Varadi identified focal points in Western Europe and in Eastern European countries, including the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, as well as the Russian Federation, Ukraine and the Republic of Belarus, who should help identify suitable experts on the subject. Additional effort will be made to involve experts from other EIFAC member countries.

7.3 Ad hoc Working Party on Fish and Crustacean Nutrition (Convener: I. Csengeri)

The proceedings of the EIFAC Workshop on Fish and Crustacean Nutrition Methodology and Research for Semi-intensive Pond-based Farming Systems, have been published as the 23^rd volume of the periodicals of the Research Institute for Fisheries Aquaculture and Irrigation (HAKI). Copies of the proceedings have been distributed by the EIFAC Secretariat to EIFAC National Correspondents and EIFAC Officers.

The Convener of the Working Party has recently been also active in studying fish nutrition aspects of organic aquaculture. This work may complement well the activities carried out by the Ad hoc Working Party on Organic Fish Farming.

7.4 Ad hoc Working Party on Organic Fish Farming (Convener: V. Hilge)

The first task of the Working Party is to assemble material on the status and developments in organic fish farming in EIFAC member countries. A Country Report form was prepared by the Convener of the Working Party, which has been sent to member countries. Detailed reports have been received from Austria, Finland and Hungary so far, and also short responses from Denmark, Ireland, Italy and Sweden. More reports are still being awaited. Then, a short overall report will be prepared and participants identified, who could contribute to the activity of the Working Party.

7.5 Ad hoc Working Party on Market Perspectives of European Freshwater Aquaculture
(Convener: L. Varadi)

In his capacity as Convener, Mr L. Varadi presented the report of the ad hoc EIFAC-EC Working Party on Market Perspectives for European Freshwater Aquaculture, held in Brussels 14-16 May 2001.

In the ensuing discussion, it was pointed out that consumption of freshwater species in Europe is very traditional and there are large differences among regions. The constraint placed on further aquaculture development by current regulations including environmental legislation, was highlighted and this has in some instances caused investment to be directed to aquaculture development in other regions such as South America.

It was pointed out that the re-stocking market is of significant economic importance but that re-stocking may have a negative environmental impact. Several delegates stressed the importance of marketing campaigns and a historic reference was made to successful campaigns for cod products in the 1960s. Imports of products from third countries, including freshwater species from capture fisheries such as Nile perch were also highlighted as a competitive threat to the European freshwater aquaculture industry.

Lastly, the potential of recreational fishing and eco-tourism was mentioned by several delegates, as was the importance of aquaculture as part of regional development.

The report was approved, subject to final editing, and will be published in French and English as an EIFAC Occasional Paper including annexes and paper presentations.

8. Report on Sub-Commission III

8.1 Ad hoc Working Party on Effects of Physical Modifications of the Aquatic Habitat on Fish Populations (Convener: M. Zalewski)

Within the framework of the EIFAC Working Party and the UNESCO IH-V Project 2.3/2.4 Ecohydrology - A New Paradigm for the Sustainable Use of Aquatic Resources, an International Workshop Ecohydrology as a Tool for Restoration of Physically Degraded Fish Habitats, will be organized in Warsaw, 10-13 June 2001.

The outcome of the Workshop will be published in the international journal Ecohydrology & Hydrology.

8.2 Ad hoc Working Party on Methodologies for Rehabilitation of Lakes and Reservoirs
(Convener: H. Lehtonen)

The Working Party is preparing a Manual on Rehabilitation of lakes and reservoirs for fish. Almost all of the chapters have been written already. The convener is in contact with Messrs I. Cowx and R. Müller, who will co-edit the manual. The manual most likely will be completed by the end of 2001. 8.3 Ad hoc Working Party on the Prevention and Control of Bird Predation (Convener: E. Staub)

During the intersessional period there are three relevant meetings: (1) First meeting of the EU-project REDCAFE, at Hull University, 1-2 April 2001; (2) Symposium Interaction between fish and birds: implications for management, at Hull University, 3-6 April 2001; (3) Second meeting of the EU-project REDCAFE, at Lelystad, 17-19 October 2001.

From 3 to 6 April 2001, an International Symposium on Interaction between fish and birds: implications for management, was organized by the Hull International Fisheries Institute, University of Hull, in collaboration with EIFAC. The convener of the Symposium was Mr I. Cowx. The meeting took place in nine sessions (49 papers were presented). Many presentations concerned marine fish and bird species. For the freshwater range of EIFAC, it made sense to widen the view because the European cormorant issue is also important for coastal waters. To solve the bird/fishery conflict, the human dimension aspects are at least as important as the aspect of data collection and data analysis; therefore, they should also be considered.

9. Report on Sub-Commission IV

9.1 Ad hoc Working Party on Education and Training (Convener: T. Brenner)

For many reasons, little action has been taken by the Working Party. It was agreed to propose to the Twenty-second Session of EIFAC to keep this Working Party in suspension. In the meantime, Mr T. Brenner was invited to continue to collect relevant information and link appropriate material to the EIFAC web site.

9.2 Ad hoc Working Party on Recreational Fisheries (Convener: B. Breton)

No report has been received from the Convener about activities since the Twenty-first Session in Budapest in 2000. However, a number of activites regarding recreational fisheries are planned prior to the Twenty-second Session in the UK in 2002. These include the Third International Conference on Recreational Fishing to be held in Darwin (Australia) in May 2002 (http://www.nt.gov.au/dpif/ fisheries/confsem/wrfc3/index.htm).

The EIFAC Working Party will be well represented and making contributions to the recommendations of the meeting. Mr I. Cowx will undertake to communicate with Mr B. Breton accordingly.

The EIFAC Working Party will also contribute towards a proposed new society on recreational fishing which will be discussed at the Darwin meeting.

Action: I. Cowx

9.3 Ad hoc Working Party on Socio-economic Aspects of Inland Fisheries (Convener:
M. Sipponen)

The field of the Working Party was to a great degree covered by the Symposium held in Budapest in 2000. Therefore, priority was given in the activities of the Working Party to the publication of the contributions, as they form a good basis for future operations.

The resolutions of the Seventh General Assembly of the European Anglers Alliance (EAA) have been analysed in respect of the operation plan of the Working Party. Studies aiming to assess the socio-economic value of recreational fishing in European countries have been carried out, but funding of further studies is in many cases uncertain. Also, the need to improve education of young fishermen was specifically addressed by the assembly.

Preparation of the workshop on survey techniques for standardizing the collection of economic data for the evaluation of inland fisheries is still under work. There is an option to arrange the workshop this summer. On the basis of the EAA resolutions mentioned above, it is evident that the need for such a workshop has increased. Arranging the workshop and publishing the proceedings will be the main effort during June 2001-June 2002.

10. Emerging Issues - Prospects for New Activities

Liaison group EU Water Framework Directive

In December 2000 the EU Commission published the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD). The Directive identifies the ecological status of the water bodies with biological quality criteria: phytoplankton, macrophytes, benthic invertebrate fauna and fish fauna. The status of the fish fauna should be assessed according to criteria as: species composition, abundance, sensitive species, age structure and production. The general procedures of future monitoring programmes are outlined in the WFD.

The EXCOM meeting realized that information exchange about the standardization on monitoring programmes and the efforts to identify criteria on which the status of the fish fauna is assessed is useful and relevant for EIFAC. The meeting therefore proposed to establish a liaison group. Mr I. Cowx in cooperation with Mr A.J.P. Raat volunteered to convene the liaison group. Links should be established with the Working Party on Fish Monitoring in Fresh Waters.

Working Party on Aquatic Environmental Hazard Assessment Criteria and Methods

Food safety and food quality aspects in fish products are attracting growing attention, both in domestic as well as in international markets. Promotion of fish product safety and quality assurance includes the handling, storage and processing of captured and farmed fish. The EXCOM meeting felt a need to identify information on efforts such as conventional regulations, standards, hygienic codes of practice as well as promotion of application of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point System (HACCP) with a view to allow for less qualitative, but more cost-effective surveillance and monitoring. The EXCOM meeting realized that GESAMP identified a similar subject for its future programme. The meeting therefore proposed to investigare possibilities for a joint EIFAC/GESAMP Working Party on Aquatic Environmental Hazard Assessment Criteria and Methods. Messrs A.J.P. Raat and U. Barg agreed to identify suitable experts and prepare a work programme.

Action: A.J.P. Raat / U. Barg

Working Party on Handling of Fishes in Fisheries and Aquaculture

The handling of fishes and fish stocks is increasingly subject to legislation and regulation. The EXCOM meeting realized the need to identify current legislation and regulations in the EIFAC member countries. Also a need was felt to exchange information on the actual practise of handling fishes in fisheries and aquaculture such as harvest, storage and slaughter of fishes. The meeting proposed to establish a Working Party on Handling of Fishes in Fisheries and Aquaculture. Mr A.J.P. Raat volunteered to set up a draft framework for the Working Party and to collect relevant literature references for the development of a specific programme. The EIFAC Secretariat will contact the FAO Legal Office on this matter.

Action: A.J.P. Raat

11. Any Other Matters

Duration of the Session

At the end of the Twenty-first Session of EIFAC in 2000, delegates felt that five days for the Session and the Symposium were too short for the Commission to fully transact its business (see Session report FIPL/R625, para 58). The Executive Committee, therefore, decided to extend the duration to six days. Better use of the time will be made by allocating time for meetings of Working Parties already during the Symposium, following closure of the symposium discussions in late afternoon.

Twenty-third Session of EIFAC in 2004

An invitation had been received from the Polish Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development to hold the Twenty-third Session of EIFAC in Poland. The invitation has already been acknowledged by the Chairperson, and will be presented to the Twenty-second Session of EIFAC for decision. The theme of the Symposium will also have to be decided at the Twenty-second Session.

The possibility to dedicate the Symposium to the present and future role of aquaculture producers' associations and organizations was discussed.

Invitations to Conferences

A call for participation to a Workshop entitled "The effects of releasing hatchery-reared fish in the wild", to be held on 28-30 August 2001 at Visby (Sweden) had been received by the Secretariat. The Workshop, under the auspices of the EU, will report on the results of the FAIR CT 97-3498 - AQUAWILD project. It was decided to inform National Correspondents about this event and to encourage participation.

The final conference on the First Phase (1996-2001) of the UNESCO IHP-V Project on Ecohydrology, "The Application of Ecohydrology to Water Resources Development and Management", will be held on 16-18 September 2001 in Venice (Italy). The information will be circulated to National Correspondents.

National Correspondents

The Chairperson has been informed that, after the departure of Mr C. Courcol as EIFAC National Correspondent for France, Mr Gérard Castelnaud, CEMAGREF, Bordeaux, will be nominated shortly. The Secretariat has further been notified that the new national EIFAC correspondent for Poland, following Mrs M. Bninska who died in March 2001, will be nominated soon.

12. Closing of the Session

The meeting approved the summary record of this Session. The Chairperson, Mr R. Müller, closed the Session on 25 May at 11.50 hrs.
