Reduction of Negative Impacts of Nonnative Fishes and Sportfish Management Activities Sample Clauses

The "Reduction of Negative Impacts of Nonnative Fishes and Sportfish Management Activities" clause is designed to minimize the adverse effects that introduced fish species and related management practices may have on native ecosystems. In practice, this clause may require agencies or stakeholders to implement measures such as habitat restoration, removal of invasive fish, or modification of stocking practices to protect native species and ecological balance. Its core function is to ensure that management activities do not inadvertently harm native biodiversity, thereby addressing the problem of ecological disruption caused by nonnative species and certain fisheries management actions.
Reduction of Negative Impacts of Nonnative Fishes and Sportfish Management Activities. Modifications were made under this recovery element to protect the constituent element of the fishes biological environment. a. Competition with and predation by introduced species is widely assumed to have played a role in the decline of the endangered fishes. The Recovery Program has been and continues to assess options to reduce negative impacts of problematic nonnative species, sportfish management, and angling mortality. Although we cannot yet fully predict the results of implementing some of these management options, we need to begin to implement the most viable ones. Therefore, actions have been added to implement (in cooperation with the States) viable measures which will decrease negative impacts of certain nonnative fishes, sportfish management, and angling mortality. Specific actions were added to selectively remove northern pike from the Yampa River and northern pike and centrarchids from the Gunnison River and possibly Paonia Reservoir.
