Common use of TUNA TRACKING AND VERIFICATION Clause in Contracts

TUNA TRACKING AND VERIFICATION. ‌ The System for Tracking and Verifying Tuna, established in accordance with Article V.1.f of the AIDCP, enables “dolphin-safe” tuna, defined as tuna caught in sets without mortality or serious injury of dolphins, to be identified and tracked from the time it is caught through unloading, processing, and sale. The Tuna Tracking Forms (TTFs), completed at sea by observers, designate the tuna caught as dolphin safe (Form ‘A’) or non-dolphin safe (Form ‘B’). This, in turn, allows for the verification of the dolphin-safe status of any tuna caught by a vessel covered by the AIDCP. This framework, administered by the Secretariat, also allows each Party to establish its own tracking and verification program, implemented and operated by a designated national authority. These programs include periodic audits and spot checks for tuna at the points of capture, landing, and processing, and provide mechanisms for communication and cooperation between and among national authorities, and timely access to relevant data. Each Party is required to provide the Secretariat with a report detailing its tracking and verification program. All trips by vessels fishing in the Agreement Area that began in 2019 with an IDCP observer aboard were issued TTFs.
