DESCRIPTION OF REQUIREMENT:
DFO is the responsible jurisdiction for management of aquatic Species at Risk (SAR) under Canada’s Species at Risk Act (SARA). DFO’s Great Lakes Laboratory for Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences has the lead on addressing important scientific gaps that have been identified in a Recovery Strategy for these species. Recovery strategies for freshwater mussels must identify critical habitat for SARA-listed species.
