1. The ALC shall automatically and independently of any intervention on the vessel communicate the following data: (i) ALC static unique identifier; (ii) the current geographical position (latitude and longitude) of the vessel; and (iii) the date and time (expressed in Universal Time Constant [UTC]) of the fixing of the position of the vessel referred to in point (ii). 2. The data referred to in paragraph 1, points (ii) and (iii), shall be obtained from a satellite-based positioning system. 3. ALCs fitted to fishing vessels must be capable of transmitting data referred to in paragraph 1, hourly. 4. The data referred to paragraph 1 shall be received by the WCPFC within 90 minutes of being generated by the ALC, under normal operating conditions. 5. ALCs fitted to fishing vessels must be protected so as to preserve the security and integrity of data referred to in paragraph 1. 6. Storage of information within the ALC must be safe, secure and integrated under normal operating conditions. |

It must not be reasonably possible for anyone other than the monitoring authority to alter any of that authority’s data stored in the ALC, including the frequency of position reporting to that authority. 8. Any features built into the ALC or terminal software to assist with servicing shall not allow unauthorised access to any areas of the ALC that could potentially compromise the operation of the VMS. 9. ALCs shall be installed on vessels in accordance with their manufacturer’s specifications and applicable standards. 10. Under normal satellite navigation operating conditions, positions derived from the data forwarded must be accurate to within 100 square metres Distance Root Mean Squared (DRMS) (i.e. 98 % of the positions must be within this range). 11. The ALC and/or forwarding service provider must be able to support the ability for data to be sent to multiple independent destinations. 12. The satellite navigation decoder and transmitter shall be fully integrated and housed in the same tamper-proof physical enclosure. |
