Abstract:
Fishermen in Federally-managed fisheries in the western Pacific region are required to maintain valid fishing permits on board their vessels at all times. Permits are renewed annually and are needed to identify participants in the fisheries. Permits also are important to help measure impacts of management controls on the participants in the fisheries of the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in the western Pacific. Changes to the permit application forms include requirements for TIN/SSN and date of birth/date of incorporation.
