ACTION: Notice of approved Northeast
multispecies at-sea and electronic
monitoring service providers for fishing
year 2024.
NMFS has approved nine
companies to provide Northeast
multispecies sector at-sea catch
monitoring (ASM) and/or electronic
catch monitoring (EM) services in
fishing year 2024. Regulations
implementing the Northeast
Multispecies Fishery Management Plan
require ASM and EM companies to meet
service provider performance standards
to be approved by NMFS to provide
catch monitoring services to sectors.
This action approves service providers
that sectors may contract with for catch
monitoring services for fishing year
2024.
SUMMARY:
Northeast multispecies at-sea
and electronic monitoring service
provider approvals are effective May 1,
2024, through April 30, 2025.
ADDRESSES: The list of NMFS-approved
sector monitoring service providers is
available at: https://

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Heather Nelson, Fishery Management
Specialist, (808) 725–5179, email
Heather.Nelson@noaa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Northeast Multispecies Fishery
Management Plan includes a
requirement for industry-funded
monitoring of catch by sector vessels.
NMFS approves independent thirdparty service providers with which
sectors may contract to provide ASM
and/or EM services to their vessels.
NMFS requires full applications for
approval from ASM and EM companies
that are not currently approved to be a
DATES:
service provider. Previously approved
ASM and EM companies are not
required to submit a full application to
maintain their approval status if they
continue to meet all service provider
performance standards and submit
required updated information annually.
The required updated information to
maintain approval includes an updated
Emergency Action Plan, evidence of
adequate insurance coverage, and, if
applicable, any updates to staffing or
operations. Regulations at 50 CFR
648.11(h) describe the criteria for
approval of ASM and EM service
provider applications. NMFS approves
service providers based on: (1)
Completeness and sufficiency of
applications; and (2) determination of
the applicant’s ability to meet the
performance requirements of a sector
monitoring service provider. Once
approved, service providers must meet
specified performance requirements
outlined in § 648.11(h)(5) and (6),
including required coverage levels, in
order to maintain eligibility. NMFS
must notify service providers, in
writing, if NMFS withdraws approval
for any reason.
Approved Monitoring Service Providers
On September 28, 2023, NMFS
announced an opportunity for new
monitoring companies to apply for
approval to provide ASM and/or EM
services in fishing year 2024, and an
opportunity for currently approved
providers to submit updated
documentation to maintain their
approval status in fishing year 2024.
NMFS previously approved nine
companies to provide catch monitoring
services to the Northeast multispecies
sectors in fishing year 2023. Five of the
nine approved companies provide both
ASM and EM services: A.I.S., Inc.; East
West Technical Services, LLC; Fathom
Research, LLC; New England Marine
Monitoring; and Saltwater, Inc. The
other four approved companies provide
EM services only: Archipelago Marine
Research, Ltd.; Flywire Cameras; Satlink
US, LLC; and Teem Fish Monitoring,
Inc.
All currently approved ASM and EM
companies continue to meet all service
provider performance standards,
submitted all required documentation,
and are therefore approved service
providers for fishing year 2024. We did
not receive any new ASM or EM
provider applications. Table 1 includes
the revised list of approved monitoring
service providers.
NMFS has the authority to remove a
service provider from its approved
status in accordance with the
regulations at § 648.11(h)(7). A
monitoring service provider that fails to
meet the requirements, conditions, and
responsibilities will be notified in
writing that it is subject to removal from
the list of approved monitoring service
providers. Withdrawing approval of a
service provider will be based on an
evaluation of the service providers
ability to meet the third-party catch
monitoring provider standards in
§ 648.11(h)(5) and (6). NMFS will
closely monitor the performance of
approved service providers, and will
withdraw approval during the current
approval term if it determines
performance standards are not being
met.
NMFS did not solicit applications to
provide dockside monitoring (DSM)
services related to the maximized
retention EM program. NMFS is
currently evaluating whether to operate
the maximized retention EM program in
fishing year 2024. NMFS will continue
to administer the DSM program if it is
operational in fishing year 2024. In
future fishing years, NMFS intends to
solicit applications to be an approved
DSM provider when the DSM program
transitions to industry-funding.

ACTION: Notice of approved Northeast multispecies at-sea and electronic

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Northeast Multispecies Fishery
Management Plan includes a requirement for industry-funded monitoring
of catch by sector vessels. NMFS approves independent third-party
service providers with which sectors may contract to provide ASM and/or
EM services to their vessels. NMFS requires full applications for
approval from ASM and EM companies that are not currently approved to
be a service provider. Previously approved ASM and EM companies are not
required to submit a full application to maintain their approval status
if they continue to meet all service provider performance standards and
submit required updated information annually. The required updated
information to maintain approval includes an updated Emergency Action
Plan, evidence of adequate insurance coverage, and, if applicable, any
updates to staffing or operations. Regulations at 50 CFR 648.11(h)
describe the criteria for approval of ASM and EM service provider
applications. NMFS approves service providers based on: (1)
Completeness and sufficiency of applications; and (2) determination of
the applicant's ability to meet the performance requirements of a
sector monitoring service provider. Once approved, service providers
must meet specified performance requirements outlined in Sec.
648.11(h)(5) and (6), including required coverage levels, in order to
maintain eligibility. NMFS must notify service providers, in writing,
if NMFS withdraws approval for any reason.
Approved Monitoring Service Providers
On September 28, 2023, NMFS announced an opportunity for new
monitoring companies to apply for approval to provide ASM and/or EM
services in fishing year 2024, and an opportunity for currently
approved providers to submit updated documentation to maintain their
approval status in fishing year 2024. NMFS previously approved nine
companies to provide catch monitoring services to the Northeast
multispecies sectors in fishing year 2023. Five of the nine approved
companies provide both ASM and EM services: A.I.S., Inc.; East West
Technical Services, LLC; Fathom Research, LLC; New England Marine
Monitoring; and Saltwater, Inc. The other four approved companies
provide EM services only: Archipelago Marine Research, Ltd.; Flywire
Cameras; Satlink US, LLC; and Teem Fish Monitoring, Inc.
All currently approved ASM and EM companies continue to meet all
service provider performance standards, submitted all required
documentation, and are therefore approved service providers for fishing
year 2024. We did not receive any new ASM or EM provider applications.
Table 1 includes the revised list of approved monitoring service
providers.
NMFS has the authority to remove a service provider from its
approved status in accordance with the regulations at Sec.
648.11(h)(7). A monitoring service provider that fails to meet the
requirements, conditions, and responsibilities will be notified in
writing that it is subject to removal from the list of approved
monitoring service providers. Withdrawing approval of a service
provider will be based on an evaluation of the service providers
ability to meet the third-party catch monitoring provider standards in
Sec. 648.11(h)(5) and (6). NMFS will closely monitor the performance
of approved service providers, and will withdraw approval during the
current approval term if it determines performance standards are not
being met.
NMFS did not solicit applications to provide dockside monitoring
(DSM) services related to the maximized retention EM program. NMFS is
currently evaluating whether to operate the maximized retention EM
program in fishing year 2024. NMFS will continue to administer the DSM
program if it is operational in fishing year 2024. In future fishing
years, NMFS intends to solicit applications to be an approved DSM
provider when the DSM program transitions to industry-funding.
