Abstract:
Catch and effort data are needed for scientific analyses that support critical conservation and management decisions that are made by national and international fishery management agencies. In addition, biologists need data on the amount of fish, marine mammals, and sea turtles that are caught or interacted with. This family of forms also includes the collection of cost-earning information and discards reported by fishermen. The final rule for 0648-BG75 requires owners and operators of all for-hire vessels with federal permits for Atlantic CMP species, Atlantic dolphin and wahoo, or South Atlantic snapper-grouper to submit electronic fishing reports at weekly intervals through NMFS approved hardware and software. Weekly electronic reporting by owners and operators of all federally permitted charter vessels and headboats will expand and enhance current data collection efforts for potentially better fisheries management, such as through more data-rich stock assessments, and reducing the time delay between data collection and the transmission of data for management. It would also specify alternative reporting provisions during instances of extended periods of non-fishing, such as submitting electronic no-fishing reports, or when catastrophic conditions preclude electronic reporting and the use of using paper forms or delayed reporting deadlines may be authorized by NMFS.
