species by weight. All fish in the subsample would be weighed, and length
measurements would be taken for cod
and other non-target catch. All bycatch
would be returned to the sea as soon as
practicable following data collection.
Exemption from minimum sizes would
support catch sampling activities and
ensure the vessel is not in conflict with
possession regulations while collecting
catch data. All trips would otherwise be
conducted in a manner consistent with
normal commercial fishing conditions
and catch consistent with the Northeast
Multispecies FMP would be retained for
sale. Trips not accompanied by GMRI
researchers would be required to carry
an At-Sea Monitor (ASM), Northeast
Fishery Observer Program (NEFOP)
observer, or privately contracted data
collection technician. On trips assigned
to carry an ASM or observer by NEFOP,
normal sampling protocols would be
carried out. The vessel is responsible for
notifying its monitoring provider of
upcoming research trips and ensuring a
research technician is present on all EFP
trips not selected for observer coverage
through Pre-Trip Notification System.
GMRI needs this exemption to allow
them to conduct testing of a net
configuration that is prohibited by the
current regulations. If approved, the
applicant may request minor
modifications and extensions to the EFP
throughout the year. EFP modifications
and extensions may be granted without
further notice if they are deemed
essential to facilitate completion of the
proposed research and have minimal
impacts that do not change the scope or
impact of the initially approved EFP
request. Any fishing activity conducted
outside the scope of the exempted
fishing activity would be prohibited.
