Rose Atoll Marine, Marianas Trench,

National Monuments. Regulations at 50
CFR part 665 require the owner and
operator of a vessel used to noncommercially fish for, take, retain, or
possess any management unit species in
these monuments to hold a valid permit.
Regulations also require the owner
and operator of a vessel that is chartered
to fish recreationally for, take, retain, or

in these monuments to hold a valid
permit. The fishing vessel must be
registered to the permit. The charter
business must be established legally in
the permit area where it will operate.
Charter vessel clients are not required to
have a permit.
The permit application collects basic
information about the permit applicant,
type of operation, vessel, and permit
area. NMFS uses this information to
determine permit eligibility. The
information is important for
understanding the nature of the fishery
and provides a link to participants. It
also aids in the enforcement of Fishery
Ecosystem Plan measures.

operator to report a complete record of
catch, effort, and other data on a NMFS
