NOAA Fish Online 4.0.4

This application is designed for operators of federally regulated fishing vessels in the Greater Atlantic Region of the USA who must complete Vessel Trip Reports (VTR) in accordance with their Federal Fishing Permit, Exempted Fishing Permit, or Research Set-Aside program.

Offered by NOAA Fisheries, this service serves as a digital alternative to traditional paper-based VTR reporting. Users benefit from enhanced speed and clarity during the reporting process while eliminating the requirement to access and download references for port and species codes.

The app, an official release from NOAA Fisheries, ensures compliance with regulations when used for reporting. Data submissions are securely transmitted directly to NOAA Fisheries Greater Atlantic Regional Fisheries Office (GARFO). Engagement with this application fulfills any GARFO-mandated electronic reporting requirements (eVTR).

• For access to this app, users need to reach out to NOAA Fisheries at 978-281-9188 to acquire the necessary credentials.
• Furthermore, possession of a valid GARFO Vessel Operator Permit is a prerequisite for using this application.
