A new internal structure within the NEFSC's Fishery Monitoring and Research Division is a major overhaul intended to improve operations and maximize resources.
The ultimate goal is to ensure accurate representation of fishing activity.
While the basic tasking is the same, separating work into four branches allows better accountability and expansion of existing capability.
Four organizational groups, rather than two, are now responsible for:
- Fisheries observer program
- Fisheries observer training and trip data
- Data and information systems management and development
- Cooperative research.
