SFCC Background
Aims
The aims of the SFCC are to support its members in collecting, using and providing information on salmon and freshwater fish, their habitats and fisheries, in an effective and co-operative way.
To these ends the SFCC provides a mechanism for local fisheries managers and biologists to standardise aspects of data collection and storage. Specialist software development is co-ordinated in a cost-effective way and members are supplied with spatial data relevant to the freshwater environment.
The SFCC also provides a facility for balanced scientific analysis of available information and encourages informed discussion of fisheries issues for both local management and national policy decisions.
