SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
The success of fisheries management
programs depends significantly on
tracking catch and effort of participants
as well as their history of regulatory
compliance. The vessel identification
requirement is essential to facilitate
these objectives. The ability to link
fishing or other activity to the vessel
owner or operator is crucial to
enforcement of the regulations issued
under the authority of the Magnuson-

Stevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act to govern domestic
and foreign fishing, and under authority
of laws implementing international
treaties.
Regulations at 50 CFR 660.704 require
that all commercial fishing vessels with
permits issued under authority of the
National Marine Fishery Service’s
(NMFS) Fishery Management Plan for
United States (U.S.) West Coast Highly
Migratory Species Fisheries display the
vessel’s official number (U.S. Coast
Guard documentation number or state
registration number). The numbers must
be of a specific size and format and
located at specified locations. The
official number must be affixed to each
vessel subject to this section in block
Arabic numerals at least 10 inches
(25.40 centimeters) in height for vessels
more than 25 feet (7.62 meters) but
equal to or less than 65 feet (19.81
meters) in length; and 18 inches (45.72
centimeters) in height for vessels longer
than 65 feet (19.81 meters) in length.
Markings must be legible and of a color
that contrasts with the background. The
display of the identifying number aids
in fishery law enforcement.
In the domestic West Coast Region
fisheries regulated under 50 CFR part
660, the vessel’s official number, United
State Coast Guard (USCG)
documentation or state registration
number, is required to be displayed on
the port and starboard sides of the
deckhouse or hull, and on an
appropriate weather deck. The number
identifies each vessel and should be
visible at distances at sea and in the air.
The requirements affect United States
(U.S.) vessels participating in the West
Coast Highly Migratory Species (HMS)
fisheries and West Coast coastal pelagic
fishing vessels, with the exception of
HMS Charter Recreational Vessels for
which an exemption was granted and
became effective September 5, 2007.
Charter vessels are no longer bound by
the vessel marking requirements under
consideration.
The identification number provides
law enforcement personnel with a
means to monitor fishing, at-sea
processing, and other related activities,
in order to ascertain whether the
vessel’s observed activities are in
accordance with those authorized for
that vessel. The identifying number is
used by the National Marine Fisheries
Service (NMFS), the USCG, and other
marine agencies in issuing citations,
prosecutions, and other enforcement
actions. Vessels that qualify for specific
fisheries are easily identified, and this
allows for more cost-effective
enforcement. Cooperating fishermen
also use this number to report

suspicious activities that they observe.
Regulation-compliant fishermen
ultimately benefit as unauthorized and
illegal, unreported, and unregulated
(IUU) fishing is deterred and more
burdensome regulations are avoided.
