Résumé

This Resolution of the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC), citing the Agreement on the International Dolphin Conservation Program (AIDCP), continues the current international observer program, including the requirement of placing an observer on each trip made in the eastern Pacific Ocean (EPO) by purse-seine vessels of capacity greater than 363 metric tons and ensure that at least one-half of the observers assigned each year to each national fleet are IATTC observers. This observer program, established by the AIDCP, the IATTC acquires valuable data on the purse-seine fishery relating to tunas and associated or dependent species, which greatly assist the Commission in discharging its obligation to conserve the fish stocks under its purview.
