APPENDIX I TO SUBPART A-DAILY FISHING LOG

A. Format

1. The log must contain entries for each day of fishing. Each page of the log may contain entries pertaining to only one day's fishing operations or one gear set, whichever is longer.

2. Each day's entries must be divided into three sections. The sections are not required to be on the same page of the log. There may be more or fewer lines and columns in each section to accommodate fishing operations and factory production. The sections must include:

(a) Section One: Vessel particulars and fishing effort.

(b) Section Two: Catch statistics.

(c) Section Three: Production statistics.

3. Each log must contain a cover page with the vessel name, IRCS, and permit number.

B. Format entries

(d) Daily total: Enter the daily total of each product produced per species to at least the nearest hundredth of a metric ton (0.01 mt).

(e) Cumulative total: Enter the cumulative total of each product produced per species to at least the nearest hundredth of a metric ton (0.01 mt).

(f) Amount transferred: Enter the cumulative total of each product per species transferred off the vessel either inside or outside of the FCZ (including products delivered to a port by the fishing vessel) to at least the nearest 0.01 mt.

(g) Balance: Enter the cumulative total of each product per species aboard the vessel to at least the nearest 0.01 mt.

(h) Total frozen product: Enter the total for all species to at least the nearest 0.01 mt of the daily total, cumulative total, amount transferred, and quantity remaining onboard.
