Overview
The Fisheries Regulations and Data Services Branch (FRDSB) Manager leads the annual revision of the IPHC Fishery Regulations; serves as the primary advisor to the IPHC’s Executive Director on 1) fisheries policy matters arising from the Contracting Parties, and 2) socio-economic aspects of Pacific halibut fisheries; and provides leadership and management oversight of services for fisheries data entry, storage and distribution, and otolith ageing.
The FRDSB manager is responsible for personnel management of a team currently consisting of six FTE’s organized in two teams:
- Fisheries Data Services
- Otolith Ageing Services
Various team members have percentages of their time assigned to FRDSB activities, and the FRDSB manager is required to coordinate time usage with managers from other branches.
