I. Abstract
NMFS manages non-commercial
fishing activities in the Rose Atoll
Marine, Marianas Trench, and Pacific
Remote Islands Marine National
Monuments. Regulations at 50 CFR part
665 require the owner and operator of
a vessel used to non-commercially fish
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 247001
for, take, retain, or possess any
management unit species in these
monuments to hold a valid permit
issued by NMFS.
Regulations also require the owner
and operator of a vessel that is chartered
to fish recreationally for, take, retain, or
possess, any management unit species
in these monuments to hold a valid
permit issued by NMFS. 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
confirm the identity of the applicant
and determine permit eligibility. The
information is important for
understanding the nature of the fishery
and its participants. It also aids in the
enforcement of fishing regulations
within the monuments.
Regulations also require the vessel
operator to report a complete record of
catch, effort, and other data on a NMFS
log sheet. The vessel operator must
record all requested information on the
log sheet within 24 hours of the
completion of each fishing day. The
vessel operator also must sign, date, and
submit the form to NMFS within 30
days of the end of each fishing trip.
NMFS uses the information provided in
the log sheets to monitor fishing
activities, evaluate and assess the status
of fish stocks and determine whether
changes in management are needed to
sustain the productivity of the fishery
and conserve marine resources.
