Aquatic Animal Health Subprogram: investigating and managing the Perkinsus related mortality of blacklip abalone in NSW - phase 1
Since the early 1990’s, a significant proportion of blacklip abalone (Haliotis rubra) along approximately 500 km of the NSW coastline between Port Stephens and Jervis Bay have died. Sporadic histological examination of moribund abalone since 1992 and a survey of infection prevalence in abalone...

Aquatic Animal Health Subprogram: development of a national translocation policy using abalone and prawns as templates for other aquatic species
The use of scientifically based hazard identification, risk analysis and risk management is fundamental to managing unwanted effects. Hazards, such as quarantine incursions, will continue to occur despite the use of risk assessment methodologies but the frequency and severity of their...

National Strategy for the Survival of Released Line Caught Fish: maximising post-release survival of line caught flathead taken in sheltered coastal waters
Flathead represent the largest catch of any fish group taken by recreational fishers in Australia and, after bream, account for the greatest numbers of fish released by recreational fishers (National Recreational Fishing Survey). Flathead are taken around Australia, with catches concentrated...

The performance report on the Pilbara Trawl Fishery to Environment Australia reported a dolphin catch of approximately 50 per year. The initial reaction of EA to this level of dolphin catch indicated that continued exports from this fishery could be in jeopardy, making it necessary to reduce the dolphin mortality. Industry are aware of this need and are willing to participate in trials.
1. Determine the occurrence of dolphins swimming into the net on vessels with exclusion grids, compared to vessels without grids, and to determine the behaviour and fate of the animals encountering the grid.
2. Determine the occurrence of dolphins swimming into the net on vessels with pingers, compared to vessels without pingers.
3. Determine the mortality rate of dolphins on trawls where pingers or grids are deployed compared to trawls without mitigation devices.
