Description:Garth reminded the group that materials for today’s discussion were available on NMFS’ website and all past and current Pinniped-Fishery Interaction Task Force information could be found on the DS Consulting website. Garth noted that NMFS granted partial authorization to the States to remove California Sea Lions under certain circumstances in 2008. Due to court related activities and accidental deaths in 2008, the program realized only a partial year of operations that year. The removal program operated in full in 2009 and 2010, but stalled again in 2011 because of the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit’s November 2010 decision. Since the 2008 authorization, a total of 37 California sea lions have been permanently removed.
