13. RISK ASSESSMENT TOOL: ECOSYSTEM RISKS PART B of Tool: Steps in Scoring Ecosystem Risks STEP 1 Assign a CONSEQUENCE RATING (for each ecosystem variable) STEP 2 Assign a LIKELIHOOD RATING (for each ecosystem category ) STEP 3 Calculate a PRELIMINARY RISK SCORE (for each category ) STEP 4 Consider MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS that may impact risk scores STEP 5 Calculate a FINAL RISK SCORE (for all ecosystem categories) Rating Risk in Pacific Fisheries Workshop March 30-31, 2015

23. ABOUT Final Score and Monitoring Level Rating Risk in Pacific Fisheries Workshop March 30-31, 2015

24. PART D OF Tool: Final Risk Scoring & Monitoring Levels RISK ASSESSMENT: FINAL SCORING 1.Final Score is based on the Preliminary Risk score which considered the variable of HIGHEST Consequence x its likelihood 2.Final Score considers Resource Management Considerations that may lead to an override Rating Risk in Pacific Fisheries Workshop March 30-31, 2015
