This collection also requires any
vessel with a limited access mackerel
permit intending to land over 20,000 lb
of mackerel to contact NMFS at least 48
hours in advance of a fishing trip to
request an observer. Vessels currently
contact NMFS via phone, and selection
notices or waivers are issued by NMFS
via VMS. If service providers are unable
to provide coverage, an owner, operator,
or vessel manager may request a waiver
by calling the Northeast Fisheries
Observer Program. Additionally, if a
fishing trip is cancelled, vessels must
notify NMFS of the cancelled trip to
prevent observers from being deployed
to a cancelled trip.
