Fishery Observer Sample Clauses
A Fishery Observer clause establishes the requirement for an independent observer to be present on fishing vessels to monitor and report on fishing activities. Typically, this clause outlines the observer's duties, such as recording catch data, ensuring compliance with regulations, and reporting any violations.
