Notice
Atlantic Trawlers Fishing Inc. was issued an Exempted Fishing Permit (EFP) on May 4, 2015 for the 2015 fishing year. The EFP allowed three commercial groundfish vessels to conduct limited exploratory fishing trips and comparative data collection inside portions of two closed areas on Georges Bank (Closed Area I and II). These vessels had access to Closed Area II from May 4 until June 15, and again from November 1 through February 15, 2016, and access to Closed Area I from May 4 until February 15, 2016. The summary table includes catch from all areas (both inside and outside Closed Area I and II) on reported EFP trips. See 2014 EFP catch results.
These data are the best available to NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) when this report was compiled. Data for this report may be supplied to NOAA Fisheries Service (NMFS) from the following sources: (1) vessels via Vessel Monitoring System; (2) Vessel Trip Reports; (3) fish dealer purchase reports; and the (4) NOAA Fisheries Service Observer Program, through audited observer reports submitted by the Northeast Fisheries Science Center. Data in this report are for landings made through May 08, 2015 and may be preliminary. Differences with data from previous reports are due to corrections made to the database and updates to observer data.
