Description
The Government Agency requires an independent contractor, for a three (3) year period, to perform observer services for the South Australian Sardine Fishery, which is located predominately in the Spencer Gulf and West Coast regions of South Australia. The contractor will be required to observe coverage aboard boats and record the information required on the form provided with regard to sardine samples.
The contractor will undertake the observer coverage on behalf of the Fisheries and Aquaculture Division within the Government Agency. The coverage provides independent information on the rates of interactions and the effectiveness of the Code of Practice.
The fundamental purpose of the observer program is to provide fisheries managers, research organisations, environmental agencies, the fishing industry and the wider community with independent, reliable, verified and accurate information on the fishing activities, practices of the vessels operating in the Sardine Fishery and success of the Code of Practice.
