PRIVACY ACT STATEMENT
AUTHORITY: The collection of this information in ODDS is authorized under the Magnuson Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management Act, 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.
PURPOSE: ODDS is an Internet-based system used to facilitate observer and EM deployment on vessels
in the partial coverage category. ODDS also is used to facilitate communication among the vessel owners
or operators, NMFS, and the observer provider or EM provider. The welcome and login screen for ODDS
is at https://apps-afsc.fisheries.noaa.gov/ords/f?p=140%3A1. A vessel owner or operator may also
provide information to NMFS by calling the call center at 1-855-747-6377.
ROUTINE USES: The primary use for ODDS is for owners or operators of vessels in the trip selection
pool to log their fishing trips so that NMFS can determine if a particular fishing trip is randomly selected
for observer or EM coverage. In addition to logging fishing trips, the owners or operators of some vessels
may use ODDS to request placement in either the full coverage category or the EM selection pool rather
than the partial coverage trip selection pool.
DISCLOSURE: Providing information through ODDS is required for vessels in the partial coverage
category of the North Pacific Observer Program under regulations at § 679.51(a)(1) and (f)(2). Some
information submitted through ODDS is made available to the public through the North Pacific Observer
Program Annual Report posted at https://alaskafisheries.noaa.gov/fisheries/observer-program.
