Evaluate and report the technical impacts of proposed marking and tagging programs that impact mark-sampling programs or the information they provide. d. The Pacific Salmon Commission has the lead role in evaluating proposals for adipose mass marking and selective fisheries when there are international impacts on CWT and/or mark sampling programs or the information they provide. e. The Mark Committee can provide technical review and recommendations to the proposing agency, affected agencies, and the Pacific Salmon Commission for all marking and tagging proposals with international impacts. f. The Mark Committee will review all marking and tagging proposals that do not have international ramifications.
