Approved At-Sea Monitoring and Electronic Monitoring Providers for Groundfish Sectors

NOAA Fisheries has approved six companies to provide Northeast multispecies sector at-sea and/or electronic monitoring services for fishing years 2021 and 2022.  Four of the six companies are approved to provide both at-sea and electronic monitoring services:  A.I.S., Inc., East West Technical Services, LLC, Fathom Research, LLC, and Saltwater, Inc.  The remaining two companies, Flywire Cameras and Teem Fish, are approved to provide electronic monitoring services.  Sectors must contract with an approved at-sea and/or electronic monitoring provider to meet sector monitoring requirements. 

We are still reviewing applications submitted by two additional electronic monitoring providers.  If we subsequently decide to approve these companies, we will publish a notice in the Federal Register announcing our decision.
