Abstract: ABSTRACT Fishing has long been an important industry and way of life for Hong Kong people, and was a major source of employment in the past. In the past few decades, Hong Kong's economy has developed rapidly but the fishing industry has been diminishing. However, the demand for fisheries product is still very high nowadays. It has been estimated that 46 kg of fisheries products per capita per year are consumed by Hong Kong people. Local fish stocks were probably healthy before the 1940's but with the rapid development of Hong Kong fisheries since the 1950's, marine resources have become over-exploited. This is similar to the trend for world fisheries. Many high-valued species have become rare in local waters. In this study, the status of fish stocks and the adequacy of fisheries management measures in Hong Kong were reviewed. It is concluded that non-regulated fishing, over-capitalization, development, pollution, reclamation, dredging and destructive fishing practices have all adversely affected the marine life of Hong Kong. Hong Kong's economy grew rapidly over the past few decades but environmental quality has been sacrificed for economic growth. The conservation of the marine environment is still a low priority. The total marine protected areas in 2003 is only 1.2% of Hong Kong waters, much lower than the proportion (20%) suggested by many studies and permitted fishing is still allowed in most of this area. Moreover, the power of the Fisheries Protection Ordinance (Cap. 171) has not been fully implemented by the government. Data on the fisheries resources of Hong Kong are inadequate and more catch and effort data, socio-economic data and basic biological information are needed for theplanning of more precise and suitable management measures. Therefore, stock assessments and habitat surveys of Hong Kong waters are highly recommended. Moreover, expansion of marine protection areas, implementation of a fisheries licensing system, prohibition of fishing at AR (Artificial Reef) deployment areas and in marine parks, restocking and more investment in conservation education are recommended to preserve our existing marine resources.

Book excerpt: (Uncorrected OCR) Mariculture Practices in relation to Water Quality and the nearshore marine environment in Hong Kong WONG, Yuen-yee Queenie Master of Science in Environmental Management (Supervisor: Dr. Yvonne Sadovy, Department of Ecology and Biodiversity, The University of Hong Kong) 2000 Abstract Fish culture in Hong Kong is based on open system cage culture in sheltered coastal waters, which involves the intensive rearing of juvenile fish to marketable size in net cages with trash fish the typical feed. Traditional mariculture practices produce high organic loads to the vicinity of Fish Culture Zones, polluting the sediment, deteriorating both local water quality and culture conditions. In this study, the relationships between mariculture practices, water quality and the coastal environment were identified. Mariculture practices, attitudes of fish farmers, government policies and attitudes of Green Groups were investigated by means of surveys, site visits to fish farms, interviews with fish farmers and a Legislative Council member, and by requesting information from the government. The current mariculture practices are unsustainable, with wild-caught fish fry and trash fish as feed imposing pressure on fisheries resources in the wild. Changes in practices are needed with appropriate education to fish farmers and their co-operation. The viability of the industry is discussed and alternatives and developments are proposed to sustain the mariculture industry in the future. i.
