A review and decision model for evaluating proposed introductions of aquatic species
Opinionnaire for appraisal of introductions of aquatic organisms.1 Each member of an evaluation board or panel of experts circles the number most nearly matching his/her opinion about the probability for the occurrence of the event. If information is unavailable or too uncertain “don't know” is marked then go to Step 2.
Step 1 Response
| No | Unlikely | Possibly | Probably | Yes | Do not know | ||
| 1. | Is the need valid and are no native species available that could serve the stated need? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
| 2. | Is the organism safe from over-exploitation in its native range? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
| 3. | Are safeguards adequate to guard against importation of disease/parasites? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
| 4. | Would the introduction be limited to closed system? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
| 5. | Would the organism be unable to establish a self-sustaining population in the range of habitats that would be available? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
| 6. | Would the organism have mostly positive ecological impacts? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
| 7. | Would most consequences of the introduction be beneficial to humans? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
| 8. | Is data base adequate to develop a complete species synopsis? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
| 9. | Does data base indicate desirability for introduction? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
| 10. | Based on all available information, do the benefits of the exotic fish introduction outweigh the risks? | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | X |
Step 2 Review and decision model for evaluating proposed introductions of aquatic organisms
| Review level | Opinionnaire value | Decision | |
| I | |||
| 1. | Is the need valid and are no native species available that could serve the stated need? | ≥ 2 > 2 | - reject - to next question |
| 2. | Is the organism safe from over - exploitation in its native range? | ≤ 2 > 2 | - reject - to next question |
| 3. | Are safeguards adequate to guard against importation of disease/parasites? | ≤ 2 > 2 | - reject - to next question |
| 4. | Would the introduction be limited to closed system? | ≥ 3 < 3 | - approve - to review level II |
| II | |||
| 5. | Would the organism be unable to establish a self-sustaining population in the range of habitats that would be available? | ≥ 3 < 3 | - approve - to review level III |
| III | |||
| 6. | Would the organism have mostly positive ecological impacts? | ≤ 2 < 3 > 2 | - reject - to review level IV - to next question |
| 7. | Would most consequences of the introduction be beneficial to humans? | ≤ 2 < 3 > 2 ≥ 3 | - reject - to review level IV - to next question |
| IV | |||
| 8. | Is data base adequate to develop complete species synopsis? | < 3 ≥ 3 | - conduct detailed lit. rev. 1) - to next question |
| 9. | Does data base indicate desirability for introduction? | ≤ 2 < 3 > 2 ≥ 3 | - reject - conduct research 2) - approve |
| 10. | Would benefits exceed risks? | ≤ 2 ≥ 3 | - reject - approve |
1) Thereafter next step question 9.
