INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE WEEKLY PRODUCTION REPORT*
The Weekly Production Report (WPR) is required from all permitted processing vessels.
The WPR must be completed and submitted via fax or email to the Northwest Region, NMFS (Fax: 206526-6736, Email: [email protected]) by Thursday at 2400 hours local time, 48 hours after the end
of the fishing week. The fishing week begins Wednesday at 0001 hours and ends on the following
Tuesday at 2400 hours local time. The WPR is divided into two sections for entries of multiple gear types
and areas during the weekly reporting periods. Extra WPR forms may be used if more than two sections
are required. If the vessel acts as both a catcher/processor and mothership during the same week, a
separate weekly report must be submitted for each operation. If a vessel fishes for or receives a target
species other than Pacific whiting, a separate weekly report must be submitted with the name of the
target species written at the top of the weekly report form.
The DFCPL and DRCPL are the basis for all the information in the WPR. The WPR must include the
following information on a weekly basis:
1. The full vessel name, Federal Fishing Permit for WOC the groundfish fishery and the international radio
call sign must be recorded.
2. The week ending date (year-month-day) for the reporting week. The reporting week starts on
Wednesday and ends on Tuesday at midnight (2359::59 local time).
3. The submitter's legal name, contact phone number and fax or email address.
4. The WOC reporting area (670, 710, 720, 730, or 740).
5. The gear type. See inside cover for gear types and codes.
6. The total number of days fished or received fish from a harvesting vessel, to the nearest full day by
area and gear type. Any fishing activity or receipt of fish during a day constitutes a full day.
7. The total number of harvesting vessels which delivered to the processor during the week, by area and
gear type. A harvester/processor vessel which does not receive outside tows must enter zero (0) in this
cell. If the vessel operated as both a mothership and harvester/processor during the reporting week, then
both the DFCPL and DRCPL logbooks would be used and separate WPRs would be submitted from each
log.
8. The total number of hauls or sets made or received during the reporting period by area and gear type.
9. Prohibited species. The prohibited species of salmon, Pacific halibut and Dungeness crab must be
recorded as the whole number of individuals caught or received during the reporting week by area and
gear type.
10. The species code must be the appropriate three digit WOC Federal species code for the total catch
for that WOC reporting area, gear type and fishing day.
11. The retained weight information must be the total round weight of the retained catch to the nearest
hundredth metric ton (0.01 mt) for that gear type, area and reporting week. The cumulative total weight
information for the full reporting week must be equal to the retained round weight for the reporting week
by gear type and area.

12. The species codes and corresponding product codes to the nearest hundredth of a metric ton (0.01
mt), by gear type and area. See the inside cover for codes. Ancillary product codes must be preceded
by the letter "A."
13. The average PRR (product recovery ratio) for each major product listed during that weekly recording
period.
14. The weekly total product weight. The total amount of each product produced during the week, by
area, gear type, species and product type, in product weight to the nearest hundredth of a metric ton
(0.01 mt).
* Notwithstanding any other provision of the law, no person is required to respond to, no shall any person be subject to a penalty for
failure to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, unless that collection
of information displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated
to average approximately 30 minutes per response (4.3 min/day), including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing
data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send
comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this
burden, to the National Marine Fisheries Service - Northwest Region, Fisheries Management Divison, 7600 Sand Point Way NE,
Seattle WA 98115. OMB Control No.: 0648-0271; Expiration Date: xx/xx/xxxx. This data collection will be mandatory upon
implementation of a final rule under 50 CFR 660, subpart G, and is confidential under Section 402(b) of the Magnuson-Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management Act.
