Data Management Plan (Deprecated)
GUID: gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:22031 | Published / External
This is an outdated version of the NOAA Data Management Plan template. InPort now supports a dedicated Data Management Plan Catalog Item type, which is up-to-date with the latest NOAA DMP template. The ability to generate Data Management Plans from Data Sets will be discontinued in a future release. Please see the Data Management Plan Help Guide to learn more.
Data Management Plan
DMP Template v2.0.1 (2015-01-01)
Please provide the following information, and submit to the NOAA DM Plan Repository.Reference to Master DM Plan (if applicable)
As stated in Section IV, Requirement 1.3, DM Plans may be hierarchical. If this DM Plan inherits provisions from a higher-level DM Plan already submitted to the Repository, then this more-specific Plan only needs to provide information that differs from what was provided in the Master DM Plan.
1. General Description of Data to be Managed
All Atlantic recreational fishing tournaments that award points or prizes for the catch & release or landing of billfish, swordfish, sharks, or tunas are required to register with NOAA Fisheries at least 4 weeks prior to the start of the tournament. To register, the tournament operator/director must complete an Atlantic Highly Migratory Species (HMS) tournament registration form (OMB 0642-0323) and submit it to the HMS Management Division. The form includes tournament name, date(s), location, and HMS for which points or prizes will be awarded, as well as the tournament operator's name, mailing address, phone number, fax number, and e-mail address. The form also gives the operator the option of ordering a specified number of Atlantic HMS recreational regulation booklets and other outreach materials for distribution at the tournament. All of the information is entered into the HMS tournament registration database, which produces a unique confirmation number that is provided to the tournament operator by the HMS Management Division for proof of registration.
Notes: Only a maximum of 4000 characters will be included.

7. Data Access
NAO 212-15 states that access to environmental data may only be restricted when distribution is explicitly limited by law, regulation, policy (such as those applicable to personally identifiable information or protected critical infrastructure information or proprietary trade information) or by security requirements. The EDMC Data Access Procedural Directive contains specific guidance, recommends the use of open-standard, interoperable, non-proprietary web services, provides information about resources and tools to enable data access, and includes a Waiver to be submitted to justify any approach other than full, unrestricted public access.
This dataset contains data protected under data confidentiality clauses of Magnuson Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. Restrictions and legal prerequisites exist for accessing the data set, and Includes any access constraints applied to assure privacy or intellectual property and any special restrictions on the use of the data. Access to these data must be approved by the Point of Contact.
Notes: The name of the Organization of the most recent Support Role of type "Distributor" is used. The support role must be in effect. This information is not required if an approved access waiver exists for this data.
Notes: This field is required if a Distributor has not been specified.
Notes: All URLs listed in the Distribution Info section will be included. This field is required if applicable.
To access this database, potential users must complete an HQ access agreement form and submit it to the Point of Contact (Brad McHale) for consideration and approval by the Point of Contact (Brad McHale).
