( 45 ) According to existing coding in relevant regulations.
( 46 ) To be distinguished between purse seines used in fish aggregating devices (FADs) and in free schools for tropical tunas.
( 47 ) All variables to be reported at the aggregation level (metiers and fleet segment) specified in Table 5 and Table 8, and by sub-region/fishing ground as specified in Table 2 of Chapter III in the Annex to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/1168. Specific numbers of operations and/or gear elements shall be used for appropriate gear.
( 48 ) Data shall be recorded by fishing gear type (FAO International Standard Statistical Classification of Fishing Gear) and by eel management unit as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1100/2007.
( 49 ) kW*Days at sea; kW *Fishing days – use of active gears only.
( 50 ) GT*Days at sea; GT*Fishing days – use of passive gears only.
( 51 ) kW*Days at sea; kW *Fishing days – use of active gears only.
( 52 ) GT*Days at sea; GT*Fishing days – use of passive gears only.
( 53 ) Data shall be recorded by fishing gear type (FAO International Standard Statistical Classification of Fishing Gear) and by eel management unit as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1100/2007.
( 54 ) Collection of these variables for vessels less than 10 metres is to be agreed at marine region level.
( 55 ) Collection of these variables for vessels less than 10 metres is to be agreed at marine region level.
( 56 ) Collection of these variables for vessels less than 10 metres is to be agreed at marine region level.
( 57 ) For certain species (salmon, tuna) specimen number should be used when appropriate.
( 58 ) Data shall be recorded by fishing gear type (FAO International Standard Statistical Classification of Fishing Gear) and by eel management unit as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1100/2007.
( 59 ) Data shall be recorded by fishing gear type (FAO International Standard Statistical Classification of Fishing Gear) and by eel management unit as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1100/2007.
( 60 ) Data shall be recorded by fishing gear type (FAO International Standard Statistical Classification of Fishing Gear) and by eel management unit as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1100/2007.
( 61 ) For vessels less than 12 m in the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea, the length categories are 0-< 6, 6-< 12 m. For vessels less than 12 m in the Baltic Sea, the length categories are 0-< 8, 8-< 12 m. For all other regions, the length categories are defined as 0-< 10, 10-< 12 m.
( 62 ) The dominance criteria are be used to allocate each vessel to a segment based on the number of fishing days used with each gear. If a fishing gear is used by more than the sum of all the others (i.e. a vessel spends more than 50 % of its fishing time using that gear), the vessel shall be allocated to that segment. If not, the vessel shall be allocated to the following fleet segment: (a) ‘Vessels using polyvalent ‘active’ gears only’ if it only uses active gears; (b) ‘Vessels using polyvalent ‘passive’ gears only’ if it only uses passive gears; (c) ‘Vessel using active and passive gears’.
( 63 ) Vessels less than 12 metres using passive gears in the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea may be disaggregated by gear type. The fleet segment definition also includes an indication of the supra-region and, if available, a geographical indicator to identify vessels fishing in outermost regions and exclusively outside EU waters.
( 64 ) Vessels less than 12 metres using passive gears in the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea may be disaggregated by gear type. The fleet segment definition shall also include an indication of the supra-region and, if available, a geographical indicator to identify vessels fishing in outermost regions and exclusively outside EU waters.
( 65 ) For definitions of farming techniques, see Regulation (EC) No 762/2008.
( 66 ) Enterprises should be segmented according to their main farming technique.
( 67 ) Hatcheries and nurseries are defined as places for the artificial breeding, hatching and rearing through the early life stages of aquatic animals. For statistical purposes, hatcheries are limited to the production of fertilised eggs. Further juvenile stages of aquatic animals are considered as being produced in nurseries. When hatcheries and nurseries are closely associated, statistics shall refer only to the latest juvenile stage produced (Regulation (EC) No 762/2008).
( 68 ) Enclosures and pens are defined as areas of water confined by nets, mesh and other barriers allowing uncontrolled water interchange and distinguished by the fact that enclosures occupy the full water column between substrate and surface; pens and enclosures generally enclose a relatively large volume of water (Regulation (EC) No 762/2008).
( 69 ) Recirculation systems means systems where the water is reused after some form of treatment (e.g. filtering).
( 70 ) Cages are defined as open or covered enclosed structures constructed with net, mesh or any porous material allowing natural water interchange. These structures may be floating, suspended or fixed to the substrate, but still permit water interchange from below (Regulation (EC) No 762/2008).
( 71 ) ‘On-bottom’ techniques cover shellfish farming in inter-tidal areas (directly on the ground or elevated).
