eLandings, the data entry component of
IERS, is used as a single reporting system for commercial harvest
and production of groundfish, Pacific halibut, and CR crab. With
this action, all catcher/processors and motherships will no longer
use a paper logbook but must use a combination of electronic
logbook (eLog) and eLandings. This change will increase the speed
and accuracy of data transmission to National Marine Fisheries
Service (NMFS) and will assist in accurate quota monitoring. A
mothership and 2 catcher/processor eLogs are added to this
collection from OMB Control No. 0648-0213, to be used instead of a
paper logbook. An eLog for both catcher vessel trawl and catcher
vessel longline and pot are now available and may be used
voluntarily. This action requires a catcher/processor or mothership
to use the eLog to electronically capture the daily flow scale
tests – which formerly were recorded on paper.
