Common use of Observer coverage Clause in Contracts

Observer coverage. The AIDCP mandates 100% coverage by observers of fishing trips by purse seiners of carrying capacity greater than 363 metric tons (t) in the Agreement Area. In 2008, the Ecuadorian program had a goal of sampling approximately one-third of the trips by its fleet, and the Colombian, European Union, Mexican, Nicaraguan, Panamanian, and Venezuelan programs each had a goal of sampling approximately half of the trips by their respective fleets. The IATTC program covered the remainder of the trips by these five fleets, plus all trips by vessels of other fleets. During 2008, observers from the On-Board Observer Program departed on 780 fishing trips, which in- cluded 7 trips by one vessel of less than 363 t capacity that was required to carry an observer on all trips made while being investigated for a possible AIDCP infraction (Table 1). In addition, 52 vessels whose last trip of 2007 carried over into 2008 had observers aboard, bringing the total to 832 trips observed in 2008 by the Program. The Program covered vessels operating under the jurisdictions of Colombia, Ecua- dor, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Spain, the United States, Vanuatu, and Venezuela. In 2008 the Program sampled 100% of trips by large purse-seine vessels, as required by the AIDCP, and the IATTC program sampled 61% of all trips.

Observer coverage. The AIDCP mandates 100% coverage by observers of fishing trips by purse seiners of carrying capacity greater than 363 metric tons (t) in the Agreement Area. In 20082009, the Ecuadorian program had a goal of sampling approximately one-third of the trips by its fleet, and the Colombian, European Union, Mexican, Nicaraguan, Panamanian, and Venezuelan programs each had a goal of sampling approximately half of the trips by their respective fleets. The IATTC program covered the remainder of the trips by these five fleets, plus all trips by vessels of other fleets. During 20082009, observers from the On-Board Observer Program departed on 780 731 fishing tripstrips (Table 1), which in- cluded 7 included 12 trips by one vessel vessels of less than 363 t tons capacity that was required to carry an observer on all trips made while being investigated for a possible AIDCP infraction (Table 1)observers during clo- sure periods, as stipulated in item 4 of IATTC Resolution C-09-01. In addition, 52 65 vessels whose last trip of 2007 2008 carried over into 2008 2009 had observers aboard, bringing the total to 832 796 trips observed in 2008 2009 by the Program. The Program covered vessels operating under the jurisdictions of Colombia, Ecua- dorEcuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Spain, the United States, Vanuatu, and Venezuela. In 2008 2009 the Program sampled 100% of trips by large purse-seine vessels, as required by the AIDCP, and the IATTC program sampled 6160% of all trips.

Observer coverage. The AIDCP mandates 100% coverage by observers of fishing trips by purse seiners of carrying capacity greater than 363 metric tons (t) in the Agreement Area. In 20082010, the Ecuadorian program had a goal of sampling approximately one-third of the trips by its fleet, and the Colombian, European Union, Mexican, Nicaraguan, Panamanian, and Venezuelan programs each had a goal of sampling approximately half of the trips by their respective fleets. The IATTC program covered the remainder of the trips by these five fleets, plus all trips by vessels of other fleets. During 20082010, observers from the On-Board Observer Program departed on 780 658 fishing tripstrips (Table 1), which in- cluded 7 included 10 trips by one vessel vessels of less than 363 t tons capacity that was required to carry an observer on all trips made while being investigated for a possible AIDCP infraction (Table 1)observers during clo- sure periods, as stipulated in item 4 of IATTC Resolution C-09-01. In addition, 52 48 vessels whose last trip of 2007 2009 carried over into 2008 2010 had observers aboard, bringing the total to 832 706 trips observed in 2008 2010 by the Program. This does not include 15 observed trips that fished outside the Agreement Area. The Program Pro- gram covered vessels operating under the jurisdictions of Colombia, Ecua- dorEcuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Spain, the United States, Vanuatu, and Venezuela. In 2008 2010 the Program sampled 100% of trips by large purse-seine vessels, as required by the AIDCP, and the IATTC program sampled 6160% of all trips.

Observer coverage. The AIDCP mandates 100% coverage by observers of fishing trips by purse seiners of carrying capacity greater than 363 metric tons (t) (IATTC Class 6) in the Agreement Area. In 20082005, the Ecuadorian Ecuadoran program had a goal of sampling approximately one-third of the trips by its fleet, and the Colombian, the European Union, Mexican, Nicaraguan, Panamanian, and Venezuelan programs each had a goal of sampling approximately half of the trips by their respective fleets. However, the program of the European Union was inactive from early 2005 until February 2006. The IATTC program covered the remainder of the trips by these five fleets, plus all trips by vessels of other fleets, except as noted below. During 20082005, observers from the On-Board Observer Program departed on 780 808 fishing trips, which in- cluded 7 trips by one vessel of less than 363 t capacity that was required to carry an observer on all trips made while being investigated for a possible AIDCP infraction (Table 1). In addition, 52 53 vessels whose last trip of 2007 2004 carried over into 2008 2005 had observers aboard, bringing the total to 832 861 trips observed in 2008 2005 by the Program. Five Panamanian-flag vessels each began a trip under the flag of Venezuela, and those trips were sampled by the PNOV. The Program covered vessels operating under the jurisdictions of Colombia, Ecua- dorEcuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Spain, the United States, Vanuatu, and Venezuela. In 2008 2005 the Program sampled 100% of trips by large purse-seine vessels, as required vessels covered by the AIDCP, and the IATTC program sampled 6168% of all trips.
