In 1985, CSIRO applied for funding from the Fishing Industry Research Trust Account to undertake a research program to investigate the commercial scallop (Pecten fumatus) in Bass Strait with the aim of providing resource assessments to guide and assist in the management of the scallop fishery.
It was proposed that in the three year period from 1 August 1985 to 30 July 1988, the program would, (1) examine and analyse all biological and commercial data currently available for the fishery, and (2) initiate a research program to provide the biological data required for the efficient management of the fishery.
