Resumen

This Resolution of the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC), citing the FAO International Plan of Action for Reducing the Incidental Catch of Seabirds in Longline Fisheries, introduces measures for seabird bycatch mitigation. Members and cooperating non-Members (CPCs) shall report to the IATTC on their implementation of the IPOA-Seabirds, including, as appropriate, the status of their National Plans of Action for reducing incidental catches of seabirds in longline fisheries. CPCs shall require their longline vessels to use at least two of the mitigation measures in Table 1 of this Resolution and shall encourage those vessles to adopt additional mitigation measures. CPCs are encouraged to establish national programs to place observers aboard longline vessels flying their flags or fishing in their waters, for the purpose of, inter alia, gathering information on the interactions of seabirds with the longline fisheries.
