Resumen

This Circular of the WCPFC Chair states the decision of the Commission to suspend the requirements for observer coverage on purse seine vessels set out in paragraphs 34 and 35 of CMM 2018-01 and CMM 2018-05 until 31 July 2020. During the period of suspension, the VMS requirements and procedures of paragraphs 33 and 37 of CMM 2018-01 that apply to purse seine vessels during FAD closure periods will also apply to purse seine vessels which are not carrying observers. In addition, at-sea transhipment for purse seine vessels shall be allowed in the area between 20°N and 20°S until that date if ports are closed but subject to any temporary measures that Port States may take regarding transhipment within a designated area of their national jurisdiction in relation to COVID-19 and in accordance with the domestic laws and regulations of the port State. The flag State CCM of any such authorized purse seine vessel that is required to be on the WCPFC Record of Fishing Vessels shall notify the Executive Director that the vessel is authorized to engage in transhipment outside of port.
