The independent adjudicator reviewing objections to the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification of Russia's Sea of Okhotsk pollock fishery will allow the conformance assessment body (CAB), Intertek Moody Marine (IMM), to submit its revised scoring rationale to peer review and comment, to address an objection filed by At-Sea Processors (APA) on the ground of procedural irregularity, the MSC said Wednesday.
Independent Adjudicator Michael Lodge, in a preliminary decision sent to the parties Wednesday and published on the MSC website, said once the procedural issue has been resolved, he will consider the other scoring issues raised by the objector related to Principle 1 and Principle 2 indicators.
