Council Regulation (EC) No 601/2004 of 22 March 2004 laying down certain control measures applicable to fishing activities in the area covered by the Convention on the conservation of Antarctic marine living resources and repealing Regulations (EEC) No 3943/90, (EC) No 66/98 and (EC) No 1721/1999 article 7b CELEX: 02004R0601-20100101 1. Each fishing vessel participating in the exploratory fisheries shall implement a tagging programme as follows: (a) Dissostichus spp. individuals shall be tagged and released in accordance with the provisions set out in the CCAMLR Tagging Program and Protocol for Dissostichus spp. in exploratory fisheries. Vessels shall only discontinue tagging after they have tagged 500 individuals, or leave the fishery having tagged Dissostichus spp. at the specified rate; (b) the programme shall target individuals of all sizes in order to meet the tagging requirement; only toothfish that are in good condition shall be tagged. All released individuals shall be double-tagged and releases shall cover as broad a geographical area as possible; in regions where both Dissostichus species occur, the tagging rate shall, to the extent possible, be in proportion to the species and size of Dissostichus spp. present in the catches; (c) all tags shall be clearly imprinted with a unique serial number and a return address so that the origin of tags can be retraced in the case of recapture of the tagged individual; from 1 September 2007 all tags for use in an exploratory fishery shall be sourced from the Secretariat; (d) all recaptured tagged individuals (i.e. fish caught with a previously inserted tag) shall not be re-released, even if they were at liberty for only a short period; (e) all recaptured tagged individuals shall be biologically sampled (length, weight, sex, gonad stage), an electronic time-stamped photograph taken of the fish, the otoliths recovered and the tag removed; (f) all relevant tag data and any data recording tag recaptures shall be reported electronically in the CCAMLR format to the CCAMLR within three months of the vessel departing these fisheries; (g) all relevant tag data, any data recording tag recaptures and specimens from recaptures shall also be reported electronically in the CCAMLR format to the relevant regional tag data repository as detailed in the CCAMLR Tagging Protocol. |
