D1C1: Incidental catches: The mortality rate per species from incidental by-catch is below levels which threaten the species, such that its long-term viability is ensured. D1C2: The population abundance of the species is not adversely affected due to anthropogenic pressures, such that its long-term viability is ensured. D1C3: The demographic characteristics of the population (e.g. size class or age class structure, sex ratio, fecundity and survival rates) of the species are indicative of a healthy population that is not adversely affected due to anthropogenic pressures. D1C4: The range of the species and, where relevant, the pattern is consistent with the prevailing physiographic, geographic and climatic conditions. D1C5: Habitat for the species has the length and condition necessary to sustain the different stages of its life cycle
