APPENDIX D:
TRANSITIONAL BUSINESS
ASSISTANCE CATCH
DISPLACEMENT METHODS
| DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION – Transitional Business Assistance Guidelines
1. Transitional Business Assistance catch displacement methods
The following is a catalogue of methods that will be used to generate the catch record summary and calculate
catch displacement for the purposes of calculating Transitional Business Assistance. The application of this
methodology within each jurisdiction is specified in the sections below.
• Analysis methods will apply to each fishery as a whole and will not be ‘customised’ to the circumstances of
individual businesses.
• Ancillary data and information that is held by fisheries management agencies may be used in displacement
estimates, for example, research sampling data, bathymetric information and vessel monitoring system data.
However, data held by individual fishing businesses or other entities will not be used in displacement
estimates.
• Calculating displacement will rely on catch data collected by each jurisdiction, much of which is collected on
large scale reporting grids (up to 60 minutes). In all cases, some degree of data processing will be required
with the objective of providing the most accurate estimate of displacement.
The methods fall into two types based on the whether the available data are shot-by-shot (containing position
information for each fishing operation) or grid based.
1.1 Shot-by-shot data
1.1.a. Single position (point)
Fishing operations will be wholly within a marine reserve or not based on the point position information of each
operation. Fishing methods are then included or excluded from the Transitional Business Assistance
calculations based on the zoning framework.
1.1.b. Start and end position (lines)
The position information of each operation should be converted to a line, generated from start and finish
coordinates. Calculations of potential displacement are derived from operations that intersected with, or are
wholly within, a marine reserve. Where an operation’s line intersects a marine reserve but does not fall entirely
within the marine reserve, the catch and GVP for that operation should be allocated in proportion to the length of
line within the reserve (Figure 1).
Fishing methods are included or excluded from the Transitional Business Assistance calculations based on the
zoning framework.

Note: The green area represents a marine reserve, and the red lines indicate lines of fishing operations. Fishing operations can be
entirely in the marine reserve, entirely outside it, or partially inside it; those that cross the reserve boundary should have their
potentially displaced catch and GVP allocated proportionally.
Source: ABARES
1.2 Grid data
Grid data is available at different scales for different fisheries and jurisdictions (6 minute, 10 minute, 30 minute
and 60 minute grids). The following spatial processing methods will be adopted to calculate catch displacement.
In all cases, fishing methods are included or excluded from the Transitional Business Assistance calculations
based on the zoning framework.
| DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION – Transitional Business Assistance Guidelines
1.2.a. Basic proportional area
The displaced catch from a grid cell is in proportion to the area of the grid that is occupied by the reserve. This
approach assumes fishing was distributed uniformly within the block. Most of the other calculation methods
(itemised below) rely to some extent on a proportional area calculation.
Figure 2: Illustration of treatment of grid-reported fishing data in relation to reserve boundaries
Note: The black grid represents the grid fishers report on, the green areas represent a marine reserve, the striped areas represent
cells that partially overlap a marine reserve, and the dark green area represent cells completely inside the marine reserve. Cells that
are entirely inside the marine reserve have their entire catch or GVP included in calculations, while those that partially overlap a
marine reserve have their catch or GVP included in proportion to the amount of overlap (e.g. if 20 per cent of a cell was inside a
marine reserve, 20 per cent of its catch or GVP would be allocated to the marine reserve).
1.2.b. Depth stratified (simple)
Where information is available on the depths in which fishing occurs, the reporting grids may be cropped to
include only those fishing depths so as to more accurately reflect where fishing activity occurred. The
proportional area approach is then applied to the cropped grids.
1.2.c. Depth stratified (advanced)
A more advanced approach to depth stratification may be applied where there is data on the proportion of fishing
within several depth ranges—allowing catches within a larger grid cell to be allocated to multiple depth strata
within the cell (e.g. within a cell 70 per cent of catch occurred in 0-50 metres depth, 25 per cent in
50-90 metres depth and 5 per cent beyond 90 metres depth). The proportional area approach is then applied to
the bathymetric strata within the grids.
An equivalent method may be used where habitat mapping data exists and there is information on proportion of
fishing by habitat.
| DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION – Transitional Business Assistance Guidelines
1.2.d. Fishery footprint from shot position data
A fishery footprint is a set of boundaries (mapping) that encompass where the operations of a fishery occur. It
may be based on a subset or complete set of detailed fishing position information, such as from a research log or
vessel monitoring system. The spatial processing of the position points may include some form of buffering
(say 2 nautical miles) to generate an outer boundary of fishing operations. Grid cells are cropped to include only
the fishery footprint and the proportional area approach is then applied to the cropped grids.
1.2.e. Commonwealth/state split
For fisheries that straddle Commonwealth and state/territory waters there may be data on the proportion of
fishing that occurs within Commonwealth waters, for each grid cell. In this case, grid cells may be cropped to
include only Commonwealth waters and the catch assigned to each grid is adjusted to reflect only
Commonwealth catches. The proportional area approach will be then applied to the cropped grids.
1.2.f. Cropping to management boundaries
Fishery management boundaries determine where fishing can occur for a particular fishery. This may affect the
interpretation of displaced catches from some grid cells that intersect with these boundaries. For a specific
fishery, grid cells may be cropped to contain only areas within the fishery management boundaries. The
proportional area approach will then be applied to the cropped grids.
1.2.g. Proportions from VMS data
Unidentified vessel monitoring system (VMS) data aggregated at a fishery level may be used to directly
determine the proportion of fishing activity that occurs inside a reserve for each grid where the grid is partially
within a reserve (in place of the proportional area approach). VMS position data should pertain to the reference
period (2007–08 to 2011–12) and be processed to include only polls that represent likely fishing activity (e.g. at
trawling speed of say 0–2.8 knots). A proportion may then be calculated for each grid cell by counting the
number of VMS polls that occur inside and outside the reserve boundary (proportion = number of polls inside
reserve/total polls for the grid). For a fishery, a single proportion would apply for each grid, encompassing all
years in the reference period.
All calculation will be undertaken at the fishery/sector level and not for individual fishers.
| DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION – Transitional Business Assistance Guidelines
1.2.h. Proportions from research data
Research data (e.g. observer data or research logbooks) that provides latitude/longitude position information for
some or all operations in a fishery may be used to directly determine the proportion of fishing activity that occurs
inside a reserve for each grid where the grid is partially within a reserve (in place of the proportional area
approach). A proportion may be calculated for each grid cell by counting the number of reported fishing
operations that occur inside and outside the reserve boundary (proportion = number of position reports inside
reserve/total position reports for the grid). For a fishery, a single proportion would apply for each grid,
encompassing all years in the reference period.
1.2.i. Landings adjusted catches
Where there is a known discrepancy between logbook records and catch disposal records, the logbook data
may be adjusted using appropriate species specific scalars. Calculations should use complete fishery/sector
catches from logbooks and from landings during the reference period (2007–08 to 2011–12) such that a single
adjustment scalar will apply to all logbook catch of a species within that fishery/sector.
1.2.j. Data at two scales
Some fisheries data may be reported at one of two grid scales (e.g. 6 or 30 minute). In these cases, the different
data sets may be analysed separately depending on the scale and the results from the two spatial scales
summed if necessary. All other things being equal there is a preference for using finer scale data.
1.2.k. Imputing fishing patterns from fine scale data
There may be cases where fine scale logbook data (say 6 minute) is available for recent years of the reference
period but only coarser scale data (say 60 minute) is available earlier in the reference period. In this
circumstance the spatial pattern of catch from the fine scale data may be used to spatially apportion the catches
in the years of coarse scale data. All the fine scale data from within the reference period should be used to
calculate total catch within each fine scale grid cell, nested within a coarse scale grid cell. From this, the
proportion of catch represented by each fine scale grid can then be calculated (proportion = catch in fine scale
grid / catch from all fine scale grids nested in the coarse scale grid). To impute the distribution of catches for
coarse scale data, the total catch from a coarse scale grid is assigned to the small scale grid in the proportions
calculated above. All calculation is undertaken at the fishery/sector level and not for individual fishers.

| DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION – Transitional Business Assistance Guidelines
For some Commonwealth fisheries, logbook data for main species in the fishery will be rescaled using catch
disposal (landings) records to account for error in estimating catch in logs. For each of the main or quota species,
a rescaling factor will be calculated for the fishery/sector by comparing the total catch from logs with the total
catch from landings during the Transitional Business Assistance assessment period (2007–08 to 2011–12).
Lookup tables of fishing methods (used in Commonwealth logs) and zoning implications are provided for each
marine region in Table 2 to Table 6. These tables indicate whether the fishing methods recorded in the
Commonwealth logbooks would be prohibited from a particular zone. They are based on the management
arrangements for commercial fishing as published in the respective regional management plans
(South-west Commonwealth Marine Reserves Network Management Plan 2014-24, North-west Commonwealth
Marine Reserves Network Management Plan 2014-24, North Commonwealth Marine Reserves Network
Management Plan 2014-24, Coral Sea Commonwealth Marine Reserve Management Plan 2014-24, Temperate
East Commonwealth Marine Reserves Network Management Plan 2014-24; Department of Sustainability,
Environment, Water, Population and Communities 2013).
There are situations where a single recorded gear code encompasses multiple sub-gears which cannot be
resolved from the available data but have different zoning implications. In these cases data will be examined to
determine whether a “one out, all out” approach should be adopted where if one of the sub-gears would be
excluded from a zone then the whole gear code would be assumed to be excluded for the purposes of
Transitional Business Assistance.

The catch displacement methods for South Australian fisheries are given in Table 7
Table 7: South Australia fisheries Transitional Business Assistance catch displacement calculation
methods
Fishery
Marine Scalefish Fishery
Calculation method
Fish Trap (incl. Ocean jacket Trap):
Proportional area of 60 min Marine Fishing Area (MFA) blocks, cropped to
depth strata of 60–200 m (method 1.2.b).
Drop Line, Handline and Long Line:
Proportional area of 60 min MFA blocks (1.2.a).
Northern Zone Rock Lobster
Fishery
Adopt method of Ward et al. (2012), applying to Commonwealth waters and a
catch reference period of 2007–08 to 2011–2012. For each MFA block, the
proportion of catch within a reserve is determined from the proportion of
research pot samples inside and outside the reserve. The pot sampling data
will comprise the complete 19-year data set used in Ward, T.M., Burch, P.,
Gorman, D. and Begg, G.A. 2012, Estimates of historical commercial fishery
catches/effort in final sanctuary and habitat protection zones in South

4. Western Australia catch displacement calculation
Western Australian commercial fishing is recorded at the scale of one degree grids cells for all relevant fisheries
in all years as well as at the scale of 10 minute for some fisheries from 2008 onwards.
For some fisheries that report 10 minute scale data, catch displacement will be calculated using different
approaches for the six months prior to 2008 and for the 54 months from 2008 onwards. For the 1 July 2007 to 31
December 2007 (six months) period of coarse scale data, catches at a finer scale will be imputed from the fishing
patterns in the 54 months of fine scale data (see Table 9). For the 1 January 2008 to 30 June 2012 period of fine
scale data, the proportional area approach will apply. The calculation of displacement for the 2007–08 financial
year will be the sum of the two 6-month periods that apply the two methods.
Catch displacement for some prawn and scallop trawl fisheries will be calculated using a fishery footprint from
shot position data approach. This involves developing a fishery boundary map from research position data that
encompass where fishing occurs. The 10 or 60 minute grid cells are cropped to include only the fishery footprint
and the proportional area approach is then applied to the cropped grids.
In other fisheries that report data on 60 minute grids, a depth stratified approach will be adopted where grids are
cropped to the depths where fishing occurs and the proportional area approach is then applied to the cropped
grids.
Table 9 also indicates whether the fishing methods used by each fishery would be prohibited from a particular
zone. This was based on the management arrangements for commercial fishing as published in the relevant
regional management plans.

5. Northern Territory catch displacement calculation
The Catch Displacement methods for Northern Territory fisheries are given in Table 10. The five relevant
Northern Territory commercial fisheries record data in their logbooks on a shot-by-shot basis where the point
location (latitude and longitude) of each fishing operation is reported. Displacement is determined simply by
establishing whether the position of the operation is within a reserve and whether the gear is permitted in the
zone.

6. Queensland catch displacement calculation
The catch displacement methods for Queensland fisheries are given in Table 12. In Queensland fisheries,
positions are recorded at the scale of sites (6 minute reporting blocks) or grids (30 minute reporting blocks).
Six-minute data will be used wherever available; otherwise, 30-minute data will be used.
To provide a gauge of the resolution of data for each fishery, the proportion of 6-minute scale catch data
contributing to displacement calculations is provided in Table 12.
The boundaries of the net fisheries in the Gulf of Carpentaria provided in Figure 3 reflect the circumstances
during the reference period (2007–08 to 2011–12). It is understood that there have been changes to some
fishery symbols (including the introduction of N12 and N13) with associated changes to boundaries, however
these took effect in July 2012, outside of the historical reference period.
A lookup table of fishing methods used in Queensland logs and zoning implications is provided for the North
Commonwealth Marine Reserves Network in Table 13 and for the Coral Sea Marine Reserve in Table 14.
These tables indicate whether the fishing methods recorded in the Queensland logbooks would be excluded
from a particular zone. They are based on the management arrangements for commercial fishing as published
in the respective regional management plans. There are situations where a single recorded gear code
encompasses multiple sub-gears which cannot be resolved but that have different zoning implications. In these
cases a “one out, all out” approach was adopted where if one of the sub-gears would be excluded from a zone
then the whole gear code is assumed to be excluded.

7. New South Wales catch displacement calculation
The catch displacement methods for New South Wales fisheries are given in Table 15. NSW commercial fishing
is recorded at the scale of one degree latitude bands in all years as well as at the scale of 6-minute sites from
around 2009 onwards. Fishers report a single 6-minute site to indicate where most of the fishing occurred during
the day; however, they may have fished across several 6-minute sites that day so there is some inherent
potential for spatial inaccuracy of catch reporting. For the purposes of Transitional Business Assistance, catch
displacement will be calculated using different methods for the 24 months prior to 30 June 2009 and for the
36 months from July 2009 onwards. For the 1 July 2007 to 30 June 2009 (24 months) period of coarse scale
data, catches at a finer scale will be imputed from the fishing patterns in the 36 months of fine scale data (see
Table 15). For the 1 July 2009 to 30 June 2012 period of fine scale data, the proportional area approach will
apply.

those grids prior to further processing. The imputed 6 minute catches will be

APPENDIX E:
BEACH PRICE CALCULATION
METHODS AND BEACH PRICES
Beach price calculation methods
The following methods have been used to develop beach prices for each jurisdiction for the purposes of
calculating Transitional Business Assistance. Nominal prices for 2009–10, 2010–11 and 2011–12 were collected
for all categories from each jurisdiction. Prices have been adjusted, where necessary, to ensure they are beach
prices consistent with the definition in Australian Fisheries Statistics (ABARES, 2012)
In some cases, market floor prices have been adjusted to remove transport and marketing costs, based on an
assumed constant percentage of market floor prices.
Nominal prices have been adjusted using consumer price index (CPI) to projected June quarter 2013 prices. The
average real price over three years is the price identified for each jurisdiction. The process of accounting for CPI
and averaging is demonstrated in Table 1 using hypothetical prices. All prices are in Australian dollars.

Commonwealth prices
For Commonwealth fisheries, the beach price data have been developed by ABARES and reported in the
Australian fisheries statistics series (ABARES, 2012). Price data for species caught in Commonwealth fisheries
are determined in two ways:
1.
fishers, co-ops, processors and distributors are contacted and asked to provide an average price for what
they sold/bought fish for. Where a number of prices are obtained for a single species, a weighted average
is used to arrive at a final price; or
2.
weighted averages of Sydney Fish Market monthly price data are used where a price was not directly
obtained from another source. To obtain a beach price, costs such as transport costs are deducted from
the sale/purchase price based on an assumed constant percentage of sale price.
For the purpose of Transitional Business Assistance, the nominal prices obtained by the above for the three
years from 2009–10 to 2011–12 have been adjusted using the consumer price index (CPI) to June quarter 2013
(April to June 2013 projected) dollar terms to derive real prices. These are then averaged over 2009-10 to
2011-12. The resultant beach prices for each species is at Table 2. Where species are not specified, the average
price of a basket of similar species will be used.

South Australia prices
For South Australian fisheries prices developed by the South Australian Research and Development Institute
will be used to calculate Transitional Business Assistance. Prices reflect a beach price consistent with the
definition in ABARES Australian Fisheries Statistics. These prices are also used for GVP calculations in South
Australia, as reported in the South Australian Wild Fisheries Information and Statistics Report (Knight & Tsolos
2012).
Species classifications included in Table 3 are consistent with categories that are assessed as being subject to
displacement. Whole-weight equivalent beach prices are provided, where available, for the three years from
2009–10 to 2011–12. They have been adjusted using the consumer price index (CPI) to June quarter 2013
(April to June 2013 projected) dollar terms. Average real prices over 2009–10 to 2011–12 will be used for the
purposes of calculating Transitional Business Assistance and these are provided for each species in Table 3.
Where species are not specified, the average price of a basket of similar species will be used.
Where species are not specified, the average price of a basket of similar species will be used.

Western Australia prices
For Western Australia fisheries prices for most species (excluding rock lobster, prawns and scallops) are beach
prices collected from processors and provided by WA Department of Fisheries. Western rock lobster prices are
consistent with those used for Western Australia GVP determinations. Prices for southern rock lobster were
derived from the adjacent rock lobster fishery in South Australia (Northern Zone Rock Lobster Fishery). Prawn
and scallop prices were developed in consultation with the WA Department of Fisheries.
Beach prices for the three years from 2009–10 to 2011–12 were adjusted using the consumer price index (CPI)
to June quarter 2013 (April to June 2013 projected) dollar terms. Average real prices over 2009–10 to 2011–12
will be used for the purposes of calculating Transitional Business Assistance and these are provided for each
species in Table 4.
Where species are not specified, the average price of a basket of similar species will be used. Note that in the
table prices for species marked with [1] are based on Commonwealth data from the Northern Prawn Fishery
and species marked with [2] are based on South Australian data from the Northern Zone Rock Lobster Fishery.

Northern Territory prices
Northern Territory prices have been provided by the Northern Territory Department of Primary Industries and
Fisheries. These prices were collected from market return logbooks completed by fishers and reflect a beach
price consistent with the definition in ABARES Australian fisheries statistics. Where prices for a species caught
in a fishery were not available, prices from adjacent fisheries have been used. Where prices for a species were
not available from adjacent fisheries, prices for similar species have been used.
Species classifications used in Table 5 are consistent with those used to report catch in the Northern Territory.
Beach prices for the three years from 2009–10 to 2011–12 were adjusted using the consumer price index (CPI)
to June quarter 2013 (April to June 2013 projected) dollar terms. Average real prices over
2009–10 to 2011–12 will be used for the purposes of calculating Transitional Business Assistance and these
are provided for each species in Table 5.
Where species are not specified, the average price of a basket of similar species will be used.

Queensland prices
For Queensland fisheries prices have been developed using information from adjacent jurisdictions
(Commonwealth, Northern Territory and New South Wales). Prices provided are consistent with those used in
other jurisdictions, and reflect a beach price consistent with the definition in Australian fisheries statistics
(ABARES, 2012).
Species listed in Table 6 are consistent with those used by Queensland Department of Agriculture, Forestry and
Fisheries. Prices have been adjusted using the consumer price index (CPI) to June quarter 2013 (April to
June 2013 projected) dollar terms.
Where species are not specified, the average price of a basket of similar species will be used.

New South Wales prices
For NSW fisheries prices have been provided by the New South Wales Department of Primary Industries.
Prices provided were market floor prices collected from the Sydney Fish Market, which include marketing and
transport costs. These market floor prices were adjusted to deduct marketing and transport costs, consistent
with the methodology used by ABARES to determine Commonwealth fishery prices. The adjusted prices reflect
beach prices consistent with the definition in Australian fisheries statistics (ABARES, 2012).
Species classifications included in Table 7 are consistent with categories used by NSW Department of Primary
Industries. Whole-weight equivalent beach prices have been used, where available, for the three years from
2009–10 to 2011–12. They were adjusted using the consumer price index (CPI) to June quarter 2013 (April to
June 2013 projected) dollar terms. Average real prices over 2009–10 to 2011–12 will be used for the calculation
of Transitional Business Assistance and these are provided for each species in Table 7. Where species are not
specified, the average price of a basket of similar species will be used.
