Workshop Objectives 

The Protected Species Safe Handling, 

Release, and Identification Workshops 

are designed to teach longline and 

gillnet fishermen the required 

techniques for the safe handling and 

release of entangled and/or hooked 

protected species, such as sea turtles, 

marine mammals, and smalltooth 

sawfish. In an effort to improve 

reporting, the proper identification of 

protected species will also be taught at 

these workshops. Additionally, 

individuals attending these workshops 

will gain a better understanding of the 

requirements for participating in these 

fisheries. The overall goal of these 

workshops is to provide participants 

with the skills needed to reduce the 

mortality of protected species, which 

may prevent additional regulations on 

these fisheries in the future.

Abstract: The Dodd-Frank Wall Street

Public Law 111–203, Title X, provides 

for the Bureau’s consumer complaint 

handling function. Among other things, 

the Bureau is to facilitate the centralized 

collection of, monitoring of, and 

response to complaints concerning 

consumer financial products and 

services. The support the appropriate 

routing of complaints to the companies 

that are the subjects of the complaints, 

the Bureau is developing a form which 

will allow companies to proactively 

participate in the Bureau’s Company 

Portal (Company Portal), a secure, Webbased interface between the Bureau’s 

Office of Consumer Response 

(Consumer Response) and companies. 

The Company Portal allows companies 

to view and respond to complaints 

submitted through the Bureau’s 

complaint handling system. Many 

companies have sought to register with 

the Company Portal before consumer 

complaints have been submitted to the 

Bureau about their companies to ensure 

early notice of potential complaints and 

allow companies’ users to acclimate to 

the software and security protocols 

needed to access the Company Portal. 

The Bureau’s proposed form, the 

Company Portal Boarding Form

streamline information collection from 

these companies, result in a greatly 

enhanced and efficient experience from 

both the consumers and companies’ 

perspectives.

and clarity of the information to be
