Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures

This dataset contains area-based management measures that have been recognized as 'other effective area-based conservation measures' (OECMs). It also contains basic information about OECMs, specifically their names, size, objectives, associated prohibitions, and DFO region. 

Spatial data for OECMs will be evaluated regularly, taking the most recent available information into account. In addition new 'OECMs will be identified over time. Therefore, this dataset may change over time.

Spatial data for OECMs will be evaluated regularly, taking the most recent available information into account. In addition, new 'OECMs will be identified over time. Therefore, this dataset may change over time. The boundaries and attributes in this dataset are intended to provide a visual representation of the area and are for information purposes only, and should not be considered legally authoritative. Please contact your local fishery officer for official coordinates and information about these closures.
