Abstract:
eLandings and seaLandings are components of the Interagency Electronic Reporting System (IERS), which is a collaborative program run by NMFS Alaska Regional Office, Alaska Department of Fish and Game, and the International Pacific Halibut Commission. The IERS provides the Alaska fishing industry with a consolidated electronic means of reporting production and landings of commercial fish and shellfish to multiple management agencies. This action would modify equipment and operational requirements for freezer longliners (catcher/processors), will increase the speed and accuracy of data transmission to NMFS and will assist in accurate quota monitoring. This action would affect the owners and operators of 33 longline catcher/processors with a License Limitation Program license endorsed for catcher/processor operations, Pacific cod, hook-and-line gear, and Bering Sea or Aleutian Islands areas. These requirements are in effect when the eligible catcher/processor is operating in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands management area, Gulf of Alaska, or while the vessel is groundfish Western Alaska Community Development Quota fishing.
