Two potential actions are assessed in this document. The objective of the first action is to reduce the adverse effects of interactions with seabirds from vessels authorized to fish under Hawaii longline limited entry permits. The objective of the second action assessed in this document is enhanced monitoring of the United States (U.S.) squid jigging fisheries, including a nascent high seas industrial-scale fishery and several coastal small-boat fisheries.

This publication gives an updated review of the quantity of discards in the world's marine fisheries, using information from a broad range of fisheries in all continents. A number of policy issues are discussed including a 'no discards' approach to fisheries management, the need for balance between bycatch reduction and bycatch utilisation initiatives, and concerns arising from incidental catches of marine mammals, birds and reptiles. The report also highlights the need for more robust methods of estimating discards, and the development of bycatch management plans.
