METHOD OF TRANSMISSION HAILS. The sector vessels will be transmitting HAILS (Trip Start and Trip End) electronically via the email messaging component of their VMS units. All data necessary to the requirements will be sent in compressed formats to minimize characters and maximize message capacity directly to the Sector’s Server which will collect, store, convert and relay all data elements necessary to meet various requirements. The Sector will relay required HAILS (Trip State and Trip End) to NMFS, immediately upon receipt. In the event that the primary system is unavailable, Sector Vessels will utilize a backup system, including but not limited to, direct cell phone or radio transmission between the vessel and NMFS OR a relay through the Sector Manager.
