IND131 - Healthcheck: Impact on habitats
Metric: Impact score of fishery activity on habitat quality as determined by gear type.
Measures the potential impact of fishing gear on marine habitats such as the seafloor, reefs, or other underwater environments. Higher scores indicate greater potential effects on habitat quality.

- Statement
- Step 1: Determine the gear type used in the fishery and the gear's impact score on physical habitat. If no data are available for the fishery, report "Data not found" and the year of data collection for the framework. Step 2: Report the gear type habitat impact score for the fishery and the year of data collection for the framework.
