NOAA Fisheries is announcing that the fishing year 2024 electronic monitoring target video review rate for audit model vessels will be 35 percent for vessels currently enrolled in the program and 50 percent for new vessels. The maximized retention electronic monitoring program will not operate in fishing year 2024 and, as such, we are not setting a video review rate for this program.
NOAA Fisheries will continue to reimburse 100 percent of industry’s at-sea costs associated with sector monitoring programs using funds appropriated by Congress. This includes human at-sea monitors and electronic monitoring, including the costs to purchase and install an electronic monitoring system and review of video. The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission will continue to administer the reimbursement program for fishing year 2024.
For more information, please read our letter posted on our website to the New England Fishery Management Council.
