Fisheries and sbm interactions
research priority 5
Our cumulative impact assessment (SEA-CIA) has looked at this at a high level.
Relative probability of an interaction between mining vessels and active fishing vessels over any ~22 x 22 km area in a day over the course of a year
The high-level assessment did not find evidence for more than a minor interaction nor impacts. More detailed work is needed to improve confidence.
