Commission Regulation(EEC) No 2807/83
of 22 September 1983
laying down detailed rules for recording information on Member States' catches of fish (repealed)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 170/83 of 25 January 1983 establishing a Community system for the conservation and management of fishery resources(1),
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2057/82 of 29 July 1982 establishing certain control measures for fishing activities by vessels of the Member States(2), and in particular Article 13 thereof,
Whereas Article 3 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2057/82 provides that the masters of fishing vessels flying the flag of, or registered in, a Member State shall keep a log-book of their fishing operations;
Whereas standardized log-books will ensure Community-wide compliance with the conservation measures adopted and should make for more effective monitoring of current rules and facilitate the scientific analysis of estimates of fish stocks and their exploitation;
Whereas, to guarantee compliance with the quotas allocated to each Member State, a landing or transhipment declaration should be completed by the master stating the quantities actually landed or transhipped;
Whereas this information should be transmitted systematically, by suitable means, in cases where the landing or transhipment is made more than 15 days after the catch;
Whereas the Management Committee for Fishery Resources has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
[F1 [X1Article 1 U.K.
1. The masters of Community fishing vessels whose length overall exceeds 10 metres shall record the information referred to in Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93 in their logbook in accordance with the model shown in Annex I, for all fishing zones except those comprised in NAFO 1 and ICES V(a) and XIV, and in accordance with the model shown in Annex II, for the latter zones. However, the model shown in Annex IIa may be used for fisheries operations carried on exclusively in the Mediterranean by the masters of Community fishing vessels whose length overall does not exceed 18 metres and which make daily fishing trips in a single fishing zone.
2. The logbook shown in Annex I, II or IIa shall also be kept in the manner prescribed in paragraph 1 when such vessels are operating in the waters of a non-member country, unless the non-member country in question specifically requires a different kind of logbook.
3. For fisheries operations in the Mediterranean, any amount greater than 50 kg of live-weight equivalent of any species retained on board shall be recorded in the logbook.
4. The codes given in Annex VI and the Three-Alpha codes established by the FAO or the names shall be used for indicating, under the appropriate headings of the logbook, the fishing gear used and the species caught.] ]
