laying down detailed rules for recording information on Member
States'catchesoffish
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European EconomicCommunity,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 170/83 of 25 January
1983 establishing a Community system for the conservation and man-
agement of fishery resources(
1),
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2057/82 of 29 July
1982 establishing certain control measures for fishing activities byvessels of the Member States(
2), and in particular Article 13 thereof,
Whereas Article 3 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2057/82 provides
that the masters of fishing vessels flying the flag of, or registered in,a Member State shall keep a log-book of their fishing operations;
Whereas standardized log-books will ensure Community-wide compli-
ance with the conservation measures adopted and should make for
more effective monitoring of current rules and facilitate the scientific
analysis of estimates of fish stocks and their exploitation;
Whereas, to guarantee compliance with the quotas allocated to each
Member State, a landing or transhipment declaration should be com-pleted by the master stating the quantities actually landed or trans-hipped;
Whereas this information should be transmitted systematically, by sui-
table means, in cases where the landing or transhipment is made more
than 15 days after the catch;
Whereas the Management Committee for Fishery Resources has not
delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
1. The log-book required under Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No
2057/82 shall be filled in by the master in accordance with the model
shown in Annex I or Annex II, depending on the fishing zone, for allfishing operations relating to species subject to TACs in the respectiveICES/NAFO ►
A1/CECAF ◄zones as referred to in paragraph 1 of
the said Article 3. The form of log-book shown in Annex I shall be
used for all fishing zones except those comprised in NAFO 1 and
ICES V a) and XIV, for which the log-book shown in Annex II shallbe used. These log-books shall be completed in accordance with theinstructions set out in Annexes IV and V respectively.
2. The log-book shown in Annex I or Annex II shall also be kept
in the manner prescribed in paragraph 1 when such vessels are operat-ing in the waters of a non-member country, unless the non-member
country in question specifically requires a different kind of log-book.
3. The codes given in Annexes VI and VII shall be used for indi-
cating, under the appropriate headings of the log-book, the fishinggear used and the species caught.

Generalrule
On entering port after each voyage, masters of all fishing vessels more

which it is registered, the information given on the landing or tranship-
ment declaration. In the case of transhipment the master of the fishing

copy of the transhipment declaration shall be handed to the master of
the recipient vessel. The original of the customs document T 2 M
completed by the master of the fishing vessel shall also be handed to
the master of the recipient vessel.
Informationtobeprovided
The actual quantities landed or estimates of the quantities transhipped
are to be indicated on the declaration for each species but only on the
last page used, as follows:
—Presentation of fish (reference No in log-book: (17))
‘Presentation’ means the way fish has been processed. Indicate the
nature of this processing if any: GUT for gutting, HEAD for head-
ing, FILLET for filleting, etc. Where no processing has taken
place, WHOLE for whole fish.
—Measurement unit for landed quantities (reference No in log-book:

—Total weight by species landed/transhipped (reference No in log-
book: (19))
Give the weight or quantities actually landed or transhipped for all
species listed in Annex VII.
The weight should correspond to the weight of fish as landed, i.e.
after any processing on board. Conversion coefficients will be
applied subsequently by the appropriate authorities in the Member
State to calculate the corresponding live weight.

country fishing zone (reference No in log-book: (22))
This is an optional entry for those vessels obliged to keep a log-
