Abstract:
As part of a proposed rule, RIN 0648-BF09, NMFS would establish procedures pursuant to the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA) for filing import documentation for certain fish and fish products, in order to implement the MSA’s prohibition on the import and trade, in interstate or foreign commerce, of fish taken, possessed, transported or sold in violation of any foreign law or regulation. Such import documentation is proposed to be collected at the time of entry consistent with the Safety and Accountability for Every (SAFE) Port Act of 2006 and other applicable statutes. Specifically, NMFS proposes to integrate collection of catch and trade documentation for the covered seafood products within the government-wide International Trade Data System (ITDS) and require electronic information collection through the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) maintained by the Department of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Under these procedures, NMFS would require an annually renewable International Fisheries Trade Permit (IFTP) and specific data for certain fish and fish products as a condition of import to enable the United States to exclude the entry into commerce of products of illegal fishing activities.
