Description:
"In 2006, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) will formally submit to the Inter-American Tropical Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) will formally submit to the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC) for the second year statistics for U.S. fisheries operating in the eastern Pacific Ocean. IATTC Resolution C-03-05 and results of the first IATTC Meeting for the Review of Fishery Statistics in April 2005 provide guidance for this submission. To accomplish this task, the Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC) provides in this report updated 2004 and preliminary 2005 estimated annual catches in weight by species and 2005 size composition statistics by selected species for the Hawaii-based longline fishery . Also provided are updated 2004 and preliminary 2005 catch and effort (or logbook) statistics for the combined American Samoa, Hawaii, and California based fleets at Level 3 (IATTC Resolution C-03-05), the international standard for such data. The Southwest Fisheries Science Center will combine these statistics with comparable annual catch estimates and size composition statistics for the U.S. West Coast-based longline and other fisheries for submission to the IATTC"--Page [1].
