COMCMT1R-EP1R-C2R-EPCNCADO
Updated 355mo ago
This procedure updates the rules for monitoring and controlling fishing activities in areas managed by the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO). It specifically focuses on the 'hail system,' which requires vessels to notify authorities of their positions and activities to prevent overfishing and ensure sustainable ocean management.
The changes primarily affect fishing vessel operators and fisheries inspectorates. By refining reporting requirements, the measure aims to improve surveillance and ensure that EU vessels comply with international conservation standards in the North Atlantic.
