Common use of USE OF MONITORING SERVICES Clause in Contracts

USE OF MONITORING SERVICES. The Members acknowledge that for the Sector to function efficiently, it is essential that the Active Members conduct their fishing operations such that at-sea monitoring service costs are kept as low as commercially practical amount. The Active Members therefore agree to provide accurate landing time projections, to make landings expeditiously, and to choose landing locations based in part on the efficiency and responsiveness of the buyer receiving catch harvested under the Sector’s ACE. Active Members who fail to comply with the provision of this Section may be assessed the excess cost of monitoring resulting from their failure to do so. Furthermore, the Sector BOD, may opt from time to time to modify provisions such as authorized landing ports in order to ensure that the cost associated with these required programs do not become cost prohibitive. COVERAGE RATES: NEFS VII will deploy at-sea monitors in a way to achieve coverage of X% of trips that is random and representative of the fishing activities of the sector. The coverage rate for FY 2014 has not been specified by NMFS at this time. A monitored trip must be a sector trip, including those taken in which a NE multispecies day-at-sea is used to target other fisheries such as monkfish or skates, unless exempted by NMFS.
