Description:

This report summarizes the outcomes of 13 BREP awards funded by NMFS in FY 2020, totaling over $2.3 million. Most of the work detailed here was scheduled to occur during calendar year 2021; however, several projects are still ongoing, and some were delayed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This report shows that bycatch reduction research, as with any research, can result in a range of outcomes. Finding technological solutions to bycatch problems is a multi-year and multi-disciplinary endeavor requiring technical expertise, collaboration with fishermen, and effective communication with managers and fisheries stakeholders.
