   fixing for 2006 the fishing opportunities and associated conditions for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, applicable in Community waters and, for Community vessels, in waters where catch limitations are required
   THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources under the Common Fisheries Policy (1), and in particular Article 20 thereof,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 847/96 of 6 May 1996 introducing additional conditions for year-to-year management of TACs and quotas (2), and in particular Article 2 thereof,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 423/2004 of 26 February 2004 establishing measures for the recovery of cod stocks (3), and in particular Articles 6 and 8 thereof,
   Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 811/2004 of 21 April 2004 establishing measures for the recovery of the Northern hake stock (4), and in particular Article 5 thereof,
   Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
   Whereas:
   
               (1)
            
            
               Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 requires the Council to adopt the measures necessary to ensure access to waters and resources and the sustainable pursuit of fishing activities taking account of available scientific advice and, in particular, the report prepared by the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF).
            
         
               (2)
            
            
               Under Article 20 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002, it is incumbent upon the Council, to establish the total allowable catches (TAC) by fishery or group of fisheries. Fishing opportunities should be allocated to Member States and third countries in accordance with the criteria laid down in Article 20 of that Regulation.
            
         
               (3)
            
            
               In order to ensure effective management of the TACs and quotas, the specific conditions under which fishing operations occur should be established.
            
         
               (4)
            
            
               The principles and certain procedures for fishery management need to be laid down at Community level, so that Member States can ensure the management of the vessels flying their flag.
            
         
               (5)
            
            
               Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 lays down definitions of relevance for the allocation of fishing opportunities.
            
         
               (6)
            
            
               In accordance with Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 847/96 the stocks that are subject to the various measures referred to therein must be identified.
            
         
               (7)
            
            
               In accordance with the procedure provided for in the agreements or protocols on fisheries relations, the Community has held consultations on fishing rights with Norway (5), the Faroe Islands (6) and Greenland (7)
               
            
         
               (8)
            
            
               The Community is a contracting party to several regional fisheries organisations. Those fisheries organisations have recommended the setting of catch limitations and other conservation rules for certain species. Such recommendations should therefore be implemented by the Community.
            
         
               (9)
            
            
               At its Annual Meeting in June 2005, the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC) adopted catch limitations for yellowfin tuna, bigeye tuna and skipjack tuna, and technical measures as regards the treatment of by-catches. Although the Community is not a member of the IATTC, it is necessary to implement those measures to ensure sustainable management of the resource under the jurisdiction of that Organisation.
            
         
               (10)
            
            
               At its Annual Meeting in 2005, the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) adopted tables indicating the under-utilisation and over-utilisation of the fishing possibilities of the ICCAT contracting parties. In that context, the ICCAT adopted a Decision observing that during the year 2004, the Community had under-exploited its quota for several stocks.
            
         
               (11)
            
            
               In order to respect the adjustments to the Community quotas established by the ICCAT, it is necessary for the distribution of the fishing opportunities arising from the under-utilisation to be carried out on the basis of the respective contribution of each Member State towards the under-utilisation without modifying the distribution key established in this Regulation concerning the annual allocation of TACs.
            
         
               (12)
            
            
               Fishing opportunities should be used in accordance with the Community legislation on the subject, and in particular with Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1381/87 of 20 May 1987 establishing detailed rules concerning the marking and documentation of fishing vessels (8), Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2807/83 of 22 September 1983 laying down detailed rules for recording information on Member States' catches of fish (9), Council Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93 of 12 October 1993 establishing a control system applicable to the common fisheries policy (10), Council Regulation (EC) No 1954/2003 of 4 November 2003 on the management of the fishing effort relating to certain Community fishing areas and resources (11), Council Regulation (EC) No 1626/94 of 27 June 1994 laying down certain technical measures for the conservation of fishery resources in the Mediterranean (12), Council Regulation (EC) No 1627/94 of 27 June 1994 laying down general provisions concerning special fishing permits (13), Council Regulation (EC) No 601/2004 of 22 March 2004 laying down certain control measures applicable to fishing activities in the area covered by the Convention on the conservation of Antarctic marine living resources (14), Council Regulation (EC) No 850/98 of 30 March 1998 for the conservation of fishery resources through technical measures for the protection of juveniles of marine organisms (15), Council Regulation (EEC) No 3880/91 of 17 December 1991 on the submission of nominal catch statistics by Member States in the north-east Atlantic (16), Council Regulation (EC) No 1434/98 of 29 June 1998 specifying conditions under which herring may be landed for industrial purposes other than direct human consumption (17), Council Regulation (EC) No 423/2004 of 26 February 2004 establishing measures for the recovery of cod stocks (18), Commission Regulation (EC) No 2244/2003 of 18 December 2003 laying down detailed provisions regarding satellite-based Vessel Monitoring Systems (19), Council Regulation (EEC) No 2930/86 of 22 September 1986 defining characteristics for fishing vessels (20), Council Regulation (EC) No 973/2001 of 14 May 2001 laying down certain technical measures for the conservation of certain stocks of highly migratory species (21), Council Regulation (EC) No 2347/2002 of 16 December 2002 establishing specific access requirements and associated conditions applicable to fishing for deep -sea stocks (22) and Council Regulation (EC) No 2270/2004 of 22 December 2004 fixing for 2005 and 2006 the fishing opportunities for Community fishing vessels for certain deep-sea fish stocks (23).
            
         
               (13)
            
            
               It is necessary, following the advice from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES), to apply a temporary system to manage the catch limits of anchovy in Subarea VIII.
            
         
               (14)
            
            
               It is necessary, following the advice from the ICES, to apply a temporary system to manage the fishing effort on sandeel in ICES Subarea IV and Division IIIa North.
            
         
               (15)
            
            
               Having regard to the scientific knowledge as to the biological status of the blue whiting stock, and following the negotiations between the Coastal States on the management of that stock, it is necessary to modify the management areas while taking into account the specific characteristics of the fisheries concerned.
            
         
               (16)
            
            
               As a transitional measure in the light of the most recent scientific advice from the ICES, the fishing effort on certain deep-sea species should be further reduced.
            
         
               (17)
            
            
               For the adjustment of fishing effort limitations on cod as laid down in Regulation (EC) No 423/2004 alternative arrangements are proposed in order to manage fishing effort consistently with the TAC, as laid down in Article 8(3) of the said Regulation.
            
         
               (18)
            
            
               Scientific advice indicates that the stock of North Sea plaice is not fished sustainably and that levels of discards are very high. Scientific advice and advice from the North Sea Regional Advisory Council indicates that it is appropriate to adjust the fishing opportunities in terms of fishing effort of vessels targeting plaice.
            
         
               (19)
            
            
               For the stocks of sole in the Western channel, it is necessary to apply a provisional effort management scheme. For the cod stocks in the Kattegat, in the North Sea, the Skagerrak and the Western channel, in the Irish Sea and in the west of Scotland, and the stocks of hake and of Norway lobster in ICES Divisions VIIIc and IXa, the effort management scheme needs to be adapted.
            
         
               (20)
            
            
               Article 2 of Regulation (EC) No 1434/98 does not ensure that the catches of herring are limited to the catch limits fixed for the species. It is therefore necessary to introduce transitional measures ensuring an appropriate monitoring and counting of herring in unsorted landings.
            
         
               (21)
            
            
               Current fishing practices when fishing with gillnets in deep waters west of Scotland and Ireland involve the use of gillnets of excessive lengths, leading to excessive soak times and high discard rates. Nets lost or deliberately discarded may continue to fish for a number of years without being retrieved. Scientific investigations have demonstrated that this fishing practice constitutes a serious threat to deep-sea species, and transitional measures to prohibit the fishery should be implemented until more permanent measures are adopted.
            
         
               (22)
            
            
               In order to ensure sustainable exploitation of the hake stocks and to reduce discards, the latest developments on selective gears should be implemented as transitional measures in Subdivision VIII a, b, d.
            
         
               (23)
            
            
               At its Annual Meeting in 2004, the North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC) adopted a recommendation to restrict fishing within certain areas in order to protect vulnerable deep-sea habitats. This recommendation should be implemented by the Community.
            
         
               (24)
            
            
               In order to contribute to the conservation of octopus and in particular to protect the juveniles, it is necessary to establish, in 2006, a minimum size of octopus from the maritime waters under the sovereignty or jurisdiction of third countries and situated in the CECAF region pending the adoption of a regulation amending Regulation (EC) No 850/98.
            
         
               (25)
            
            
               In November 2005 the NEAFC recommended placing a number of vessels on the list of vessels that have been confirmed as having engaged in illegal, unreported and unregulated fisheries. Implementation of the recommendations in the Community legal order should be ensured.
            
         
               (26)
            
            
               At the Annual Meeting of the General Fisheries Commission of the Mediterranean (GFCM) in 2005, the GFCM adopted a recommendation on the management of certain fisheries exploiting deep-sea species and a recommendation concerning the establishment of a GFCM record of vessels of over 15 metres authorised to operate in the GFCM area. As the Community is a contracting party to the GFCM, these recommendations are binding on the Community and should therefore be implemented.
            
         
               (27)
            
            
               In order to contribute to the conservation of fish stocks, certain supplementary measures on control and technical conditions of fishing should be implemented in 2006.
            
         
               (28)
            
            
               Certain provisions should be introduced on the use of VMS data in order to provide for greater efficiency and effectiveness in the monitoring, control and surveillance of effort management.
            
         
               (29)
            
            
               In order to ensure that catches of blue whiting by third-country vessels in Community waters are correctly accounted for, it is necessary to strengthen the control provisions for such vessels.
            
         
               (30)
            
            
               Under Article 20 of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 it is incumbent upon the Council to decide on the conditions associated with the limits on catches and/or fishing effort limits. Scientific advice indicates that substantial catches in excess of agreed TACs result in the sustainability of fishing operations being prejudiced. It is therefore appropriate to introduce associated conditions that will result in improved implementation of the agreed fishing possibilities.
            
         
               (31)
            
            
               At its Annual Meeting in 2004, the ICCAT adopted a number of technical measures for certain stocks of highly migratory species in the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, specifying inter alia a new minimum size for bluefin tuna, restrictions on fishing within certain areas and time periods in order to protect bigeye tuna, measures concerning sport and recreational fishing activities in the Mediterranean Sea and the establishment of a sampling programme for the estimation of the size of the caged bluefin tuna. In order to contribute to the conservation of fish stocks it is necessary to implement these measures in 2006 pending the adoption of a regulation amending Regulation (EC) No 973/2001.
            
         
               (32)
            
            
               At its Annual Meeting in 2005, the South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO) adopted a measure to place scientific observers on board all vessels operating in the Convention Area and targeting species not subject to the conservation and management regimes of other competent regional fisheries organisations from 1 January 2006. This measure is binding on the Community and should therefore be implemented.
            
         
               (33)
            
            
               At its 27th Annual Meeting of 19 to 23 September 2005, the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO) adopted a number of technical and control measures. It is necessary to implement these measures.
            
         
               (34)
            
            
               In order to comply with international obligations assumed by the Community as a Contracting Party to the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR), including the obligation to apply the measures adopted by the CCAMLR Commission, the TACs adopted by that Commission for the 2005-2006 season and the corresponding season limit dates should be applied.
            
         
               (35)
            
            
               At its XXIVth annual meeting in 2005, the CCAMLR adopted relevant catch limits for the stocks open to established fisheries by any CCAMLR Member. CCAMLR also approved the participation of Community vessels in exploratory fisheries for Dissostichus spp. in Subareas FAO 88.1 and 88.2 as well as in Divisions 58.4.1, 58.4.2, 58.4.3a) and 58.4.3b) and made the relevant fishing activities subject to catch and by-catch limits, as well as to certain specific technical measures. Those limits and technical measures should also be applied.
            
         
               (36)
            
            
               In order to ensure the livelihood of Community fishermen, and in order to avoid endangering resources and any possible difficulty due to the lapsing of Council Regulation (EC) No 27/2005 of 22 December 2004 fixing for 2005 the fishing opportunities and associated conditions for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, applicable in Community waters and, for Community vessels, in waters where catch limitations are required (24), it is essential to open these fisheries on 1 January 2006 and maintain in force in January 2006 some of the rules of the said Regulation. Given the urgency of the matter, it is imperative to grant an exception to the six-week period referred to in paragraph I(3) of the Protocol on the role of national Parliaments in the European Union, annexed to the Treaty on European Union and to the Treaties establishing the European Communities.
            
         HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

         SECTION 2
   Technical measures
   Article 27
   Mesh sizes
   1.   The use of trawl net having in any section thereof net meshes of dimensions less than 130 mm shall be prohibited for direct fishing of the groundfish species referred to in Annex VII. This mesh size may be reduced to a minimum of 60 mm for direct fishing of short-finned squid (Illex illecebrosus). For direct fishing of skates (Rajidae) this mesh size shall be increased to a minimum of 280 mm in the cod-end and 220 mm in all other parts of the trawl.
   2.   Vessels fishing for shrimp (Pandalus borealis) shall use nets with a minimum mesh size of 40 mm.
   Article 28
   Attachments to nets
   1.   The use of any means or device other than those described in this Article which obstructs the meshes of a net or which diminishes their size shall be prohibited.
   2.   Canvas, netting or any other material may be attached to the underside of the cod-end in order to reduce or prevent damage.
   3.   Devices may be attached to the upper side of the cod-end provided that they do not obstruct the meshes of the cod-end. The use of top-side chafers shall be limited to those listed in Annex VIII.
   4.   Vessels fishing for shrimp (Pandalus borealis) shall use sorting grids or grates with a maximum spacing between bars of 22 mm. Vessels fishing for shrimp in Division 3L shall also be equipped with toggle chains of a minimum of 72 cm in length as described in Annex IX.
   Article 29
   By-catches
   1.   Fishing vessels may not conduct directed fisheries for species for which by-catch limits apply. A directed fishery for a species is conducted when that species comprises the largest percentage by weight of the catch in any one haul.
   2.   By-catches of the species for which no quotas have been fixed by the Community for a part of the NAFO Regulatory Area and taken in that part when fishing directly for any species may not exceed for each species 2 500 kg or 10 % by weight of the total catch retained on board, whichever is the greater. However, in a part of the NAFO Regulatory Area where directed fishing of certain species is banned or an ‘others’ quota has been fully utilised, by-catches of each of the species listed in Annex ID shall not exceed 1 250 kg or 5 % respectively.
   3.   Whenever the total amounts of species subject to by-catch limits in any haul exceed the limits laid down in paragraph 2, whichever is applicable, vessels shall immediately move a minimum of five nautical miles from the previous haul position. Whenever the total amounts of species subject to by-catch limits in any subsequent haul exceed those limits, vessels shall again immediately move a minimum of five nautical miles from the previous haul position and shall not return to the area for at least 48 hours.
   4.   Whenever total by-catches of all species in any haul exceed 5 % by weight in Division 3M and 2,5 % in Division 3L, vessels fishing for shrimp (Pandalus borealis) shall immediately move a minimum of five nautical miles from the position of the previous haul.
   5.   Catches of shrimp shall not be used in the calculation of by-catch level of groundfish species.
   Article 30
   Minimum size of fish
   1.   Fish from the NAFO Regulatory Area which do not have the size required as set out in Annex X may not be processed, retained on board, trans-shipped, landed, transported, stored, sold, displayed or offered for sale, but shall be returned immediately to the sea.
   2.   Where the quantity of caught fish not having the size required as set out in Annex X exceeds 10 % of the total quantity, the vessel shall move away to a distance of at least five nautical miles from any position of the previous haul before continuing fishing. Any processed fish for which minimum fish size requirements apply which is below a length equivalent in Annex X, shall be deemed to originate from fish that is below the minimum fish size.
   SECTION 3
   Control measures
   Article 31
   Product labelling and separate stowage
   1.   All processed fish harvested in the NAFO Regulatory Area shall be labelled in such a way that each species and product category as referred to in Article 1 of Council Regulation (EC) No 104/2000 of 17 December 1999 on the commonorganisation of the markets in fishery and aquaculture products (29) is identifiable. It shall also be marked as having been caught in the NAFO Regulatory Area.
   2.   All shrimp harvested in Division 3L and all Greenland halibut harvested in Subarea 2 and Divisions 3KLMNO shall be marked as having been caught in these respective zones.
   3.   Taking into consideration the legitimate safety and navigational responsibility of the master of the vessel, the following shall apply:
   
               —
            
            
               catch of the same species shall be stowed clearly separate from catches of other species. All catches taken within the NAFO Regulatory Area shall be stowed separately from catches taken outside this area.
            
         
               —
            
            
               catches may be stowed in more than one part of the hold, but in each part of the hold where they are stowed, they shall be kept clearly separate, by the use of plastic, plywood, netting, etc. from catches of other species.
            
         Article 32
   Fishing and production logbooks and stowage plan
   1.   In addition to complying with Articles 6, 8, 11 and 12 of Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93, masters of vessels shall enter in the logbook the information listed in Annex XI.
   2.   Before the 15th of each month, each Member State shall, in computer -readable form, notify the Commission of the quantities of stocks specified in Annex XIII landed during the preceding month and communicate any information received under Articles 11 and 12 of Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93.
   3.   The masters of a Community vessel shall, in respect of catches of the species listed in Annex IC, keep:

               a production logbook stating their cumulative production, by species on board in product weight stated in kilograms;
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               a stowage plan that shows the location of the different species in the holds.
            
         4.   The production logbook and stowage plan referred to in paragraph 3 shall be updated on a daily basis for the preceding day reckoned from 00.00 hrs (UTC) until 24.00 hrs (UTC) and shall be kept on board until the vessel has unloaded completely.
   5.   The master shall provide the necessary assistance to enable the quantities declared in the production logbook and the processed products stored on board to be verified.
   6.   Every two years Member States shall certify the accuracy of the capacity plans for all Community vessels authorised to fish pursuant to Article 26(1). The master shall ensure that a copy of such certification remains onboard to be shown to an inspector upon request.
   Article 33
   Carrying of nets
   1.   When fishing directly for one or more of the species listed in Annex VII, Community vessels shall not carry nets with a mesh size smaller than that laid down in Article 27.
   2.   However, Community vessels fishing in the course of the same voyage in areas other than the NAFO Regulatory Area may keep on board nets with a smaller mesh size than that laid down in Article 27 provided they are securely lashed and stowed and are not available for immediate use. Such nets must:
   
               (a)
            
            
               be unshackled from their boards and their hauling or trawling cables and ropes; and
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               if they are carried on or above the deck, be lashed securely to a part of the superstructure.
            
         Article 34
   Trans-shipment
   1.   Community vessels shall not engage in trans-shipment operations in the NAFO Regulatory Area unless they have received prior authorisation to do so from their competent authorities.
   2.   Community vessels shall not engage in trans-shipment operations of fish from or to a non-contracting party vessel which has been sighted or otherwise identified as having engaged in fishing activities in the NAFO Regulatory Area.
   3.   Community vessels shall report each trans-shipment in the NAFO Regulatory Area to their competent authorities. Donor vessels shall make that report at least twenty-four hours in advance and receiving vessels not later than one hour after the trans-shipment.

   Article 48
   Tagging programme
   Each fishing vessel participating in the exploratory fisheries as referred to in Article 42 shall implement a tagging programme as follows:
   
               (a)
            
            
               
                  Dissostichus spp. individuals shall be tagged and released at a rate of one individual per tonne of green weight catch throughout the season in accordance with the CCAMLR Tagging Protocol. Vessels shall only discontinue tagging after they have tagged 500 individuals, or leave the fishery having tagged one individual per tonne of green weight caught;
            
         
               (b)
            
            
               the programme shall target individuals of all sizes in order to meet the tagging requirement of one individual per one tonne of green weight catch. All released individuals shall be double-tagged and releases shall cover as broad a geographical area as possible;
            
         
               (c)
            
            
               all tags shall be clearly imprinted with a unique serial number and a return address so that the origin of tags can be retraced in the case of recapture of the tagged individual;
            
         
               (d)
            
            
               all recaptured tagged individuals (i.e. fish caught that have a previously inserted tag) shall not be re-released, even if it was at liberty for only a short period;
            
         
               (e)
            
            
               all recaptured tagged individuals shall be biologically sampled (length, weight, sex, gonad stage), an electronic photograph taken if possible, the otoliths recovered and the tag removed;
            
         
               (f)
            
            
               all relevant tag data and any data recording tag recaptures shall be reported electronically in the CCAMLR format to CCAMLR within three months of the vessel departing these fisheries;
            
         
               (g)
            
            
               all relevant tag data, any data recording tag recaptures, and specimens from recaptures shall also be reported electronically in the CCAMLR format to the relevant regional tag data repository as detailed in the CCAMLR Tagging Protocol.
            
         Article 49
   Scientific observers
   Each fishing vessel participating in the exploratory fisheries referred to in Article 42 shall have at least two scientific observers, one of which shall be an observer appointed in accordance with the CCAMLR Scheme of International Scientific Observation, on board throughout all fishing activities within the fishing period.

               IMPLEMENTATION OF FISHING EFFORT LIMITATIONS
         5.   Obligations of the Member States
         Each Member State shall ensure that, when carrying on board any of the fishing gears referred to in point 4, fishing vessels flying its flag and registered in the Community shall be present within an area defined in point 2 for no more than the number of days set out in point 8.
         6.   Levels of fishing effort
         
                     6.1.
                  
                  
                     A Member State shall not permit fishing with a gear defined in point 4 in any areas defined in point 2 by any vessels flying its flag which have no record of such fishing activity in the years 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 or 2005 in that area excluding the record of fishing activities as a result of transfer of days between fishing vessels unless it ensures that equivalent capacity, measured in kilowatts, is prevented from fishing in the area in question.
                     However, a vessel with a track record of using a gear defined in point 4 may be authorised to use a different gear defined in point 4, provided that the number of days allocated to this latter gear is greater than or equal to the number of days allocated to the first gear.
                  
               
                     6.2
                  
                  
                     A vessel flying the flag of a Member State having no quotas in an area defined in point 2 shall not be permitted to fish with a gear defined in point 4 in that area, unless the vessel is allocated a quota after a transfer as permitted according to Article 20(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 and is allocated days at sea according to point 15 of this Annex.
                  
               7.   Calculation of fishing effort
         A Member State shall not count against the days present within an area allocated to any of vessels flying its flag under this Annex any days when the vessel was present within an area but unable to fish because it was assisting another vessel in need of emergency aid nor any days when the vessel has been present within an area but unable to fish because it is transporting an injured person for emergency medical aid. The Member State shall provide justification to the Commission within one month of any decisions taken on this basis with associated evidence of the emergency from competent authorities.
         8.   Maximum number of days
         
                     8.1.
                  
                  
                     For the purpose of fixing the maximum number of days a fishing vessel may be present within the area, the following special conditions shall apply in accordance with Table I:

                                 (f)
                              
                              
                                 The total landings in 2002 made by the vessel, or by the vessel or vessels using similar gears and qualifying for this special condition, mutatis mutandis, that it has replaced in accordance with Community law, must represent less than 5% cod and more than 5% turbot and lumpsucker of the total landings of all species made by the vessel in 2002 according to the landings in live weight consigned in the Community logbook.
                              
                           
                                 (g)
                              
                              
                                 The vessel must be equipped with a trammel net of mesh size ≤ 110 mm and must be absent from port for no more than 24 hours at a time.
                              
                           
                                 (h)
                              
                              
                                 The vessel must fly the flag and be registered in a Member State having developed a system, approved by the Commission, of automatic suspension of fishing licences in respect of infringements by vessels qualifying for this special condition.
                              
                           
                                 (i)
                              
                              
                                 The vessel shall have been present in the area in the years 2003, 2004 or 2005 with fishing gear on board referred to in point 4, and in 2006 the quantities of cod retained on board shall represent less than 5% of the total landings of all species made by the vessel according to the landings in live weight recorded in the Community logbook. During a management period when a vessel is making use of this provision the vessel may not at any time carry on board fishing gear other than that specified in points 4.b.iii. or 4.b.iv.

                     The maximum number of days per year for which a vessel may be present within any one of the areas defined as in point 2 having carried on board any one of the fishing gears referred to in point 4 is shown in Table I.
                  
               
                     8.3.
                  
                  
                     The maximum number of days per year for which a vessel may be present within any combination of areas defined in point 2 may not be higher than the highest number of days allocated for one of the areas composing it.
                  
               
                     8.4.
                  
                  
                     A day present within an area defined in point 2 of this Annex shall also count against the total number of days present within the area defined in point 1 of Annex IIC for a vessel operating with the same gear categories.
                  
               
                     8.5.
                  
                  
                     Where a vessel crosses between two or more areas on a fishing trip the day shall be counted against the area in which the largest proportion of time was spent during that day.
                  
               9.   Management periods
         
                     9.1.
                  
                  
                     A Member State may divide the days within an area given in Table I into management periods of durations of one or more calendar months.
                  
               
                     9.2.
                  
                  
                     The number of days for which a vessel may be present within any of the areas defined in point 2 during a management period shall be fixed at the discretion of the Member State concerned.
                  
               
                     9.3.
                  
                  
                     In any given management period a vessel that has used the number of days present within the area for which it is eligible shall remain in port or out of any area referred to in point 2 for the remainder of the management period unless using only unregulated gear as described in point 18.
                  
               10.   Allocation of additional days for permanent cessation of fishing activities
         
                     10.1.
                  
                  
                     An additional number of days on which a vessel may be present within the area when carrying on board any of the gears referred to in point 4 may be allocated to Member States by the Commission on the basis of permanent cessations of fishing activities that have taken place since 1 January 2002 either in accordance with Article 7 of Council Regulation (EC) No 2792/1999 of 17 December 1999 laying down the detailed rules and arrangements regarding Community structural assistance in the fisheries sector (1) or resulting from other circumstances duly motivated by Member States. The effort expended in 2001 measured in kilowatt days of the withdrawn vessels using the gear in question shall be compared to comparable level of effort expended by all vessels using that gear during 2001. Any part of a day resulting from this calculation shall be rounded to the nearest whole day. This point shall not apply where a vessel has been replaced in accordance with point 6.2.
                  
               
                     10.2.

               EXCHANGES OF FISHING EFFORT ALLOCATIONS AND DAYS PRESENT WITHIN AN AREA
         14.   Transfer of days between fishing vessels flying the flag of a Member State
         
                     14.1.
                  
                  
                     According to provisions laid down in point 6, a Member State may permit any fishing vessels flying its flag to transfer days present within a area referred to in point 2 for which it is eligible to another vessel flying its flag provided that the product of the days received by a vessel and its engine power in kilowatts (kilowatt days) is equal to or less than the product of the days transferred by the donor vessel and the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. The engine power in kilowatts of the vessels shall be that recorded for each vessel in the Community fishing fleet register.
                  
               
                     14.2.
                  
                  
                     The total number of days present within an area referred to in point 2 under point 14.1. multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of the donor vessel shall not be higher than the donor vessel's average annual days track record excluding transfers from other vessels in that area as verified by the Community logbook in the years 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004 multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. When a donor vessel uses the area definition of West of Scotland as defined in point 2.2 its track record calculation will be based on this area definition.
                     For the purposes of this point, the recipient vessel is deemed to use its own allocated days before any days transferred to it. Transferred days used by the recipient vessel are counted towards the track record of the donor vessel.
                  
               
                     14.3.
                  
                  
                     For the purposes of this Annex and referring to the areas defined in point 2 and the groupings of fishing gears defined in point 4, the following transfer groups are defined:

                                 groupings of fishing gears 4.c.i, 4.c.ii and 4.c.iii within any area;
                              
                           
                                 (f)
                              
                              
                                 grouping of fishing gears 4.d within any area;
                              
                           
                                 (g)
                              
                              
                                 grouping of fishing gears 4.e within any area.

                     The transfer of days as described in point 14.1. shall only be permitted between vessels operating within the same transfer group and during the same management period. A Member State may allow a transfer of days when a licensed donor vessel has temporarily ceased its activity without public aid.
                  
               
                     14.5.
                  
                  
                     No transfer of days from vessels benefiting from the allocation under conditions referred to in points 8.1. and 17 is permitted.
                  
               
                     14.6.
                  
                  
                     On request from the Commission, Member States shall provide information on the transfers that have taken place.
                  
               15.   Transfer of days between fishing vessels flying the flag of different Member States
         Different Member States may permit transfer of days present within an area for the same management period and within the same area between any fishing vessels flying their flags provided the same provisions as laid down in points 6.1, 6.2, 7 and 14 apply. Where Member States decide to authorise such a transfer, they shall notify the Commission before such transfers take place of the transfer expressed in number of days and in fishing effort and the quotas relating thereto.
         USE OF FISHING GEAR
         16.   Notification of fishing gear
         Before the first day of each management period the master of a vessel or his representative shall notify to the authorities of the flag Member State which gear or gears he intends to use during the forthcoming management period. Until such notification is provided the vessel shall not be entitled to fish within the areas defined in point 2 with any of the gears referred to in point 4.
         17.   Use of more than one grouping of fishing gear
         
                     17.1.
                  
                  
                     A vessel may use gears belonging to more than one grouping of fishing gears defined under point 4 during one management period.
                  
               
                     17.2
                  
                  
                     Where the master of a vessel or his representative notifies the use of more than one of the groupings of fishing gears defined under point 4, the total number of days available during the forthcoming management period shall be no more than the arithmetic mean of the days which the vessel is eligible for each gear, rounded down to the nearest whole day. It shall not be permitted to deploy any of the gears concerned for more days than the number of days laid down for that gear in Table I for the area concerned.
                  
               
                     17.3.
                  
                  
                     The option to use more than one gear shall only be available if the following additional monitoring arrangements are met:
                     
                                 (a)
                              
                              
                                 during a given trip the fishing vessel may carry on board or use only one of the fishing gears referred to in point 4, except as provided for in point 19.2;
                              
                           
                                 (b)
                              
                              
                                 before any trip the master of a vessel or his representative shall give prior notice to the competent authorities of the type of fishing gear that is to be carried on board or used unless the type of fishing gear has not changed from the one notified for the previous trip.
                              
                           
               
                     17.4.
                  
                  
                     Inspection and surveillance at sea and in port by the competent authorities shall be undertaken for verification of compliance with the above two requirements. Any vessel found to be not complying with these requirements shall with immediate effect no longer be permitted to use two groupings of fishing gears.
                  
               18.   Combined use of regulated and unregulated fishing gear
         A vessel wishing to combine the use of one or more of the fishing gears referred to in point 4 (regulated gears) with any other fishing gears not referred to in point 4 (unregulated gears) shall not be restricted in their use of the unregulated gear. Such vessels must pre-notify when the regulated gear is to be used. When no such notification has been given no gear referred to in point 4 may be carried on board. Such vessels must be authorised and equipped to undertake the alternative fishing activity.
         19.   Prohibition of carrying on board more than one regulated fishing gear
         
                     19.1.
                  
                  
                     A vessel which is present within any of the areas defined in point 2 and carrying on board a fishing gear belonging to one of the groupings of fishing gears referred to in point 4 may not simultaneously carry on board any gear belonging to one of the other groupings of fishing gears referred to in point 4.
                  
               
                     19.2.
                  
                  
                     By way of derogation from point 19.1 a vessel may carry on board in an area referred to in point 2 fishing gears belonging to different groupings of fishing gears if the number of days allocated to these gear groups in that area is identical.
                  
               NON-FISHING RELATED ACTIVITIES AND TRANSIT
         20.   Non-fishing related activities
         In any given management period a vessel may undertake non-fishing related activities, without that time being counted against its days allocated under point 8, provided that the vessel first notifies its flag Member State of its intention to do so, the nature of its activity and that it surrenders its fishing licence for this time. Such vessels shall not carry any fishing gear or fish on board during that time.
         21.   Transit
         A vessel is allowed to transit across the area provided that it has no fishing permit to operate in the area or that it has first notified its authorities of its intention to do so. While that vessel is within the area any fishing gears carried on board must be lashed and stowed in accordance with conditions laid down in Article 20(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93.
         VESSEL MONITORING SYSTEMS OBLIGATIONS
         22.   Recording of relevant data
         Member States shall ensure that the following data received pursuant to Articles 8, 10(1) and 11(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2244/2003 are recorded in a computer-readable form:

                     (b)
                  
                  
                     each entry into, and exit from maritime areas where specific rules on access to waters and resources apply.
                  
               23.   Cross-checks
         Member States shall verify the submission of logbooks and relevant information recorded in the logbook by using VMS data. Such cross-checks shall be recorded and made available to the Commission on request.
         REPORTING OBLIGATIONS
         24.   Collection of relevant data
         Member States, on the basis of information used for the management of fishing days absent from port and present within the areas as set out in this Annex, shall collect for each quarter the information about total fishing effort deployed in the areas defined in point 2 for towed gears, static gears and demersal longlines and effort deployed by vessels using different types of gear in the areas concerned by this Annex.
         25.   Communication of relevant data
         On request of the Commission, Members States shall make available to the Commission a spreadsheet with the data referred to in point 24 in the format specified in Tables II and III by sending it to the appropriate electronic mailbox address, which shall be communicated to the Member States by the Commission.

               IMPLEMENTATION OF FISHING EFFORT LIMITATIONS
         4.   Obligations of the Member States
         Each Member State shall ensure that, when carrying on board any of the fishing gears referred to in point 3, fishing vessels flying its flag and registered in the Community shall be present within the area for no more than the number of days specified in point 7.
         5.   Levels of fishing effort
         
                     5.1.
                  
                  
                     A Member State shall not permit fishing with a gear defined in point 3 in the area by any of its vessels which have no record of such fishing activity in the years 2002,2003, 2004 or 2005 in the area, excluding the record of fishing activities as a result of transfer of days between fishing vessels, unless it ensures that equivalent capacity, measured in kilowatts, is prevented from fishing in the regulated area.
                     However, a vessel with a track record of using a gear defined in point 3 may be authorised to use a different gear defined in point 3, provided that the number of days allocated to this latter gear is greater than or equal to the number of days allocated to the first gear.

                     A vessel flying the flag of a Member State having no quotas in the area defined in point 1 shall not be permitted to fish with a gear defined in point 3 in that area, unless the vessel is allocated a quota after a transfer as permitted according to the Article 20 (5) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 and is allocated days at sea according to point 13 of this Annex.
                  
               6.   Calculation of fishing effort
         A Member State shall not count against the days allocated to any of its vessels under this Annex either any days when the vessel has been present within the area but unable to fish because it was assisting another vessel in need of emergency aid or any days when a vessel has been present within the area but unable to fish because it is transporting an injured person for emergency medical aid. The Member State shall provide justification to the Commission within one month of any decisions taken on this basis with associated evidence of the emergency from the competent authorities.
         NUMBER OF DAYS PRESENT WITHIN THE AREA ALLOCATED TO FISHING VESSELS
         7.   Maximum number of days
         
                     7.1.
                  
                  
                     For the purposes of fixing the maximum number of days a fishing vessel may be present within the area, the following special conditions shall apply in accordance with Table I:
                     
                                 (a)
                              
                              
                                 The total landings of hake in any of the years 2001, 2002 and 2003 made by the vessel, or by the vessel or vessels using similar gears and qualifying for this special condition, mutatis mutandis, that it has replaced in accordance with Community law, shall represent less than 5 tonnes according to the landings in live weight consigned in the Community logbook, and;
                              
                           
                                 (b)
                              
                              
                                 The total landings of Norway lobster in any of the years 2001, 2002 and 2003 made by the vessel, or by the vessel or vessels using similar gears and qualifying for this special condition, mutatis mutandis, that it has replaced in accordance with Community law, shall represent less than 2,5 tonnes according to the landings in live weight consigned in the Community logbook.
                              
                           
               
                     7.2.
                  
                  
                     The maximum number of days 2006per year for which a vessel may be present within the area having carried on board any one of the fishing gears referred to in point 3 is shown in Table I.
                  
               8.   Management periods
         
                     8.1.
                  
                  
                     A Member State may divide the days present within the area given in Table I into management periods of durations one or more calendar month.
                  
               
                     8.2.
                  
                  
                     The number of days for which a vessel may be present within the area during a management period shall be fixed at the discretion of the Member State concerned
                  
               
                     8.3.
                  
                  
                     In any given management period a vessel may undertake non-fishing related activities, without that time being counted against its days allocated under point 7, provided that the vessel first notifies its flag Member State of its intention to do so, the nature of its activity and that it surrenders its fishing licence for this time. Such vessels shall not carry any fishing gear or fish on board during that time.
                  
               9.   Allocation of additional days for permanent cessations of fishing activities
         
                     9.1.
                  
                  
                     An additional number of days on which a vessel may be present within the area when carrying on board any of the gears referred to in point 3 may be allocated to Member States by the Commission on the basis of permanent cessations of fishing activities that have taken place since 1 January 2004 either in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 2792/1999 or resulting from other circumstances duly motivated by Member States. Any vessels that can be shown to have been definitively withdrawn from the area may also be considered. The additional number of days allocated to vessels in a given gear category will be directly proportional to the fishing effort expended in 2003 measured in kilowatt days of the withdrawn vessels using the gear in question compared to the comparable level of effort expended by all vessels using that gear during 2003. Any part of a day resulting from this calculation shall be rounded to the nearest whole day. . This point shall not apply where a vessel has been replaced in accordance with point 5.2.
                  
               
                     9.2.
                  
                  
                     Member States wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 9.1. shall submit a request to the Commission with reports containing the details of permanent cessations of fishing activities in question.
                  
               
                     9.3.
                  
                  
                     On the basis of such a request the Commission may amend the number of days defined in point 7.2. for that Member State in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.
                  
               10.   Allocation of additional days for enhanced observer coverage
         
                     10.1.
                  
                  
                     Three additional days on which a vessel may be present within the area when carrying onboard any of the gears referred to in point 4 may be allocated in 2006 to Member States by the Commission on the basis of an enhanced programme of observer coverage in partnership between scientists and the fishing industry. Such a programme shall focus in particular on levels of discarding and on catch composition.
                  
               
                     10.2.
                  
                  
                     Member States wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 10.1 shall submit a description of their enhanced observer coverage programme.
                  
               
                     10.3.
                  
                  
                     On the basis of this description, and after consultation with STECF, the Commission may amend the number of days defined in point 8.2 for that Member State and for the area and gear grouping concerned in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.
                  
               11.   Conditions for derogations from the normal allocation of days
         
                     11.1
                  
                  
                     If a vessel has received an additional number of days resulting from compliance with the special conditions listed in points 7.1(a) and 7.1(b) the vessel's landings shall not in 2006 exceed 5 tonnes live weight of hake and 2,5 tonnes live weight of Norway lobster.
                  
               
                     11.2.
                  
                  
                     The vessel shall not tranship any fish at sea to another vessel.
                  
               
                     11.3.
                  
                  
                     When either of these conditions is not met by a vessel, that vessel shall with immediate effect no longer be entitled to the additional days.

               EXCHANGES OF FISHING EFFORT ALLOCATIONS AND DAYS PRESENT WITHIN THE AREA
         12.   Transfer of days between vessels flying the flag of a Member State
         
                     12.1.
                  
                  
                     According to provisions laid down in point 5, a Member State may permit any fishing vessel flying its flag to transfer days present within the area for which it is eligible to another vessel flying its flag within the area provided that the product of the days received by a vessel multiplied by its engine power in kilowatts (kilowatt days) is equal to or less than the product of the days transferred by the donor vessel and the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. The engine power in kilowatts of the vessels shall be that recorded for each vessel in the Community fishing fleet register.
                  
               
                     12.2.
                  
                  
                     The total number of days present within the area transferred under point 12.1. multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of the donor vessel shall not be higher than the donor vessel's average annual days track record in the area as verified by the Community logbook in the years 2001, 2002 and 2003 and 2004, multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel.
                  
               
                     12.3.
                  
                  
                     The transfer of days as described in 12.1. shall be permitted only between vessels operating within the same gear group and during the same management period.
                  
               
                     12.4.
                  
                  
                     No transfer of days from vessels benefiting from the allocation referred to in point 3 is permitted.
                  
               
                     12.5.
                  
                  
                     On request from the Commission, Member States shall provide reports on the transfers that have taken place.
                  
               13.   Transfer of days between fishing vessels flying the flag of different Member States
         Member States may permit transfer of days present within the area referred to in point 1 for the same management period and within the area between any fishing vessels flying their flags provided the same provisions as laid down in points 5.1., 5.2., 6 and 12. Where Member States decide to authorize such a transfer, as a preliminary they shall notify the Commission not only of that transfer expressed in number of days and in fishing effort but also expressed in fishing quotas relating thereto, as agreed between them.
         USE OF FISHING GEAR
         14.   Notification of fishing gear
         
                     14.1.
                  
                  
                     Before the first day of each management period the master of a vessel or his representative shall notify to the authorities of the flag Member State which gear or gears he intends to use during the forthcoming management period. Until such notification is provided the vessel will not be entitled to fish within the area with any of the gears referred to in point 3.
                  
               
                     14.2
                  
                  
                     Point 14.1 shall not apply to fishing vessels authorised by a Member State to use only one of the gear types defined in point 3.
                  
               15.   Combined use of regulated and unregulated fishing gear
         A vessel wishing to combine the use of one or more of the fishing gears referred to in point 3 (regulated gears) with any other fishing gears not referred to in point 3 (unregulated gears) will not be restricted in their use of the unregulated gear. Such vessels must pre notify when the regulated gear is to be used. When no such notification has been given, no gear referred to in point 3 may be carried on board. Such vessels must be authorised and equipped to undertake the alternative fishing activity.
         16.   Transit
         A vessel is allowed to transit across the area provided that it has no fishing permit to operate in the area or that it has first notified its authorities of its intention to do so. While that vessel is within the area any fishing gears carried on board must be lashed and stowed in accordance with conditions laid down in Article 20(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93.
         MONITORING, INSPECTION AND SURVEILLANCE
         17.   Recording of relevant data
         Member States shall ensure that the following data received pursuant to Articles 8, 10(1) and 11(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 2244/2003 are recorded in a computer-readable form:
         
                     (a)

         FISHING EFFORT FOR VESSELS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE RECOVERY OF WESTERN CHANNEL SOLE STOCKS
         1.   Scope
         The conditions laid down in this Annex shall apply to Community vessels of length overall equal to or greater than 10 metres carrying on board any of the gears defined in point 3, and present in Division VIIe. For the purposes of this Annex, a reference to the year 2006 means the period from 1 February 2006 to 31 January 2007.
         Vessels fishing with static nets greater than 120 mm and with a track record in 2004 of less than 300 kg of sole shall be exempt from the provisions of this Annex on condition that:
         
                     (a)
                  
                  
                     such vessels catch less than 300 kg in 2006, and
                  
               
                     (b)
                  
                  
                     each Member State concerned makes a report to the Commission by 31 July 2006 and 31 January 2007 on these vessels' catches of sole in 2006.
                  
               2.   Definition of days present with the area
         For the purposes of this Annex, a day present within area shall be any period of 24 hours during which a vessel is present at any time within the area defined in point 1 and absent from port. The time from which the 24-hour period is measured is at the discretion of the Member State whose flag is flown by the vessel concerned.
         3.   Definition of fishing gear
         For the purposes of this Annex, the following groupings of fishing gears shall apply:
         
                     (a)
                  
                  
                     Beam trawls of mesh size equal to or greater than 80 mm;
                  
               
                     (b)
                  
                  
                     Static nets including gill-nets, trammel-nets and tangle-nets with mesh size less than 220 mm.
                  
               IMPLEMENTATION OF FISHING EFFORT LIMITATIONS
         4.   Obligations of the member States
         Each Member State shall ensure that, when carrying on board any of the fishing gears referred to in point 3, fishing vessels flying its flag and registered in the Community shall be present within the area for no more than the number of days set out in point 7.
         5.   Levels of fishing effort
         
                     5.1.
                  
                  
                     A Member State shall not permit fishing with a gear defined in point 3 in the area by any of its vessels which have no record of such fishing activity in the years 2002, 2003, 2004 in that area unless it ensures that equivalent capacity, measured in kilowatts, is prevented from fishing in the regulated area.
                     However, a vessel with a track record of using a gear defined in point 3 may be authorised to use a different gear defined in point 3, provided that the number of days allocated to this latter gear is greater than or equal to the number of days allocated to the first gear.
                  
               
                     5.2.
                  
                  
                     A vessel flying the flag of a Member State having no quotas in the area defined in point 1 shall not be permitted to fish with a gear defined in point 3 in that area, unless the vessel is allocated a quota after a transfer as permitted according to the Article 20(5) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 and is allocated days at sea according to point 12 of this Annex.
                  
               6.   Calculation of the fishing effort
         A Member State shall not count against the days allocated to any of its vessels under this Annex either any days when the vessel has been present within the area but unable to fish because it was assisting another vessel in need of emergency aid or any days when a vessel has been present within the area but unable to fish because it is transporting an injured person for emergency medical aid. The Member State shall provide justification to the Commission within one month of any decisions taken on this basis with associated evidence of the emergency from the competent authorities.
         NUMBER OF DAYS PRESENT WITHIN THE AREA ALLOCATED TO FISHING VESSELS
         7.   Maximum number of days
         
                     7.1.
                  
                  
                     For the purposes of fixing the maximum number of days a fishing vessel may be present within the area, the following special conditions shall apply, in accordance with Table I:
                     
                                 (a)
                              
                              
                                 of the gear groups referred to in point 3 the vessel shall only carry on board or deploy the gear defined in point 3.b;
                              
                           
                                 (b)
                              
                              
                                 the total landings in live weight of sole in 2004 as recorded in the Community logbook by the vessel concerned shall be less than 300 kg.
                              
                           
               
                     7.2.
                  
                  
                     The maximum number of days per year for which a vessel may be present within the area having carried on board any one of the fishing gears referred to in point 3 is shown in Table I.
                  
               
                     7.3.
                  
                  
                     The number of days in which a vessel is present within the total area covered by this Annex and Annex IIA shall not exceed the number shown in Table I of this Annex. However the number of days in which the vessel is present in the areas covered in Annex IIA shall comply with the maximum number fixed in accordance with Annex IIA.
                  
               8.   Management periods
         
                     8.1.
                  
                  
                     Member States may divide the days present within the area given in Table I into management periods of durations of one or more calendar months.
                  
               
                     8.2.
                  
                  
                     The number of days for which a vessel may be present within the area during a management period shall be fixed at the discretion of Member States concerned.
                  
               
                     8.3.
                  
                  
                     In any given management period a vessel that has used the number of days present within the area for which it is eligible shall remain in port or out of the area for the remainder of the management period unless using a gear for which no maximum number of days has been fixed
                  
               9.   Allocation of additional days for permanent cessations of fishing activities
         
                     9.1.
                  
                  
                     An additional number of days on which a vessel may be present within the area when carrying on board any of the gears referred to in point 3 may be allocated to Member States by the Commission on the basis of permanent cessations of fishing activities that have taken place since 1 January 2004 either in accordance with Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 2792/1999 or resulting from other circumstances duly motivated by Member States. The additional number of days allocated to vessels in a given gear category will be directly proportional to the fishing effort expended in 2003 measured in kilowatt days of the withdrawn vessels using the gear in question compared to the comparable level of effort expended by all vessels using that gear during 2003. Any part of a day resulting from this calculation shall be rounded to the nearest whole day. This point shall not apply where a vessel has been replaced in accordance with point 5.2
                  
               
                     9.2.
                  
                  
                     Member States wishing to benefit from such allocations shall submit a request to the Commission with reports containing the details the permanent cessations of fishing activities in question.
                  
               
                     9.3.
                  
                  
                     On the basis of such a request the Commission may amend the number of days defined in point 7.1 for that Member State in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 30(2) of Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002.
                  
               10.   Allocation of additional days for enhanced observer coverage
         
                     10.1
                  
                  
                     Three additional days on which a vessel may be present within the area when carrying onboard any of the gears referred to in point 4 may be allocated in 2006 to Member States by the Commission on the basis of an enhanced programme of observer coverage in partnership between scientists and the fishing industry. Such a programme shall focus in particular on levels of discarding and on catch composition.
                  
               
                     10.2
                  
                  
                     Member States wishing to benefit from the allocations referred to in point 10.1 shall submit a description of their enhanced observer coverage programme.

                     In accordance with the provisions laid down in point 5, a Member State may permit any of its fishing vessels flying its flag to transfer days present within the area for which it is eligible to another of its vessels flying its flag within the area provided that the product of the days received by a vessel and its engine power in kilowatts (kilowatt days) is equal to or less than the product of the days transferred by the donor vessel and the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. The engine power in kilowatts of the vessels shall be that recorded for each vessel in the Community fishing fleet register.
                  
               
                     12.2.
                  
                  
                     The total number of days present within the area transferred under point 12.1. multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of the donor vessel shall not be higher than the donor vessel's average annual days track record in the area as verified by the Community logbook in the years 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004, multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel.
                  
               
                     12.3.
                  
                  
                     The transfer of days as described in point 12.1. shall be permitted only between vessels operating within the same gear grouping referred to in point 3. and during the same management period.
                  
               
                     12.4.
                  
                  
                     On request from the Commission, Member States shall provide reports on the transfers that have taken place.
                  
               13.   Transfer of days between fishing vessels flying the flag of different Member States
         Member States may permit transfer of days present within the area for the same management period and within the area between any fishing vessels flying their flags provided the same provisions as laid down in points 5.1., 5.2, 6 and 12. Where Member States decide to authorize such a transfer, as a preliminary they shall notify the Commission not only of that transfer expressed in number of days and in fishing effort but also expressed in fishing quotas relating thereto, as agreed between them.
         USE OF FISHING GEAR
         14.   Notification of fishing gear
         Before the first day of each management period the master of a vessel or his representative shall notify to the authorities of the flag Member State which gear or gears he intends to use during the forthcoming management period. Until such notification is provided the vessel shall not be entitled to fish within the area defined in point 1 with any of the gears referred to in point 3.
         15.   Non-fishing related activities.
         In any given management period a vessel may undertake non-fishing related activities, without that time being counted against its days allocated under point 7, provided that the vessel first notifies its flag Member State of its intention to do so, the nature of its activity and that it surrenders its fishing licence for that time. Such vessels shall not carry any fishing gear or fish on board during that time.
         16.   Transit
         A vessel shall be allowed to transit across the area provided that it has no fishing permit to operate in the area or it has first notified its authorities of its intention to do so. While that vessel is within the area any fishing gears carried on board must be lashed and stowed in accordance with conditions laid down in Article 20(1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93.
         MONITORING, INSPECTION AND SURVEILLANCE
         17.   Fishing effort messages

Such alternative measures shall be notified to the Commission before being implemented.
         21.   Prior notification of transhipments and landings
         The master of a Community vessel or his representative wishing to tranship any quantity retained on board or to land in a port or landing location of a third-country shall inform the competent authorities of the flag Member State at least 24 hours prior to transhipping or to landing in a third-country the information referred to in Article 19b of Regulation (EEC) No 2847/93.
         22.   Margin of tolerance in the estimation of quantities reported in the logbook
         By way of derogation from Article 5(2) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2807/83, the permitted margin of tolerance, when estimating quantities, in kilograms retained on board of vessels referred to in point 17 shall be 8 % of the logbook figure. Where event that no conversion factors are laid down in Community legislation, the conversion factors adopted by the Member states whose flag the vessel is flying shall apply.
         23.   Separate stowage
         When quantities of sole greater than 50 kg are stowed on board a vessel, it shall be prohibited to retain on board a fishing vessel in any container any quantity of Sole mixed with any other species of marine organism. The masters of Community vessels shall give inspectors of Member States such assistance as will enable the quantities declared in the logbook and the catches of sole retained on board to be cross checked.
         24.   Weighing
         
                     24.1.

                  whenever a sea turtle is sighted in the net, all reasonable efforts shall be made to rescue the turtle before it becomes entangled in the net, including, if necessary, the deployment of a speedboat;
               
            
                  (b)
               
               
                  if a turtle is entangled in the net, net roll should stop as soon as the turtle comes out of the water and should not start again until the turtle has been disentangled and released;
               
            
                  (c)
               
               
                  if a turtle is brought on board a vessel, all appropriate methods to assist in the recovery of the turtle should be made before returning it to the water;
               
            
                  (d)
               
               
                  tuna-fishing vessels shall be prohibited from disposing of salt bags or any other type of plastic rubbish at sea;
               
            
                  (e)
               
               
                  the release, when practicable, of sea turtles entangled in Fish Aggregating Devices (FADs) and other fishing gear is encouraged;
               
            
                  (f)
               
               
                  the recovery of FADs which are not being used in the fishery is also encouraged.

         Specifications of the Sorting grid for 70 mm trawl fishery in Skagerrak and Kattegat
         
                     a)
                  
                  
                     The species selective grid shall be attached in trawls with full square mesh codend with a mesh size equal to or larger than 70 mm and smaller than 90 mm. The minimum length of the codend shall be 8 m. It shall be prohibited to use any trawl having more than 100 square meshes in any circumference of the codend, excluding the joining or the selvedges.
                  
               
                     b)
                  
                  
                     The grid shall be rectangular. The bars of the grid shall be parallel to the longitudinal axis of the grid. The bar spacing of the grid shall not exceed 35 mm. It shall be permitted to use one or more hinges in order to facilitate its storage on the net drum.
                  
               
                     c)
                  
                  
                     The grid shall be mounted diagonally in the trawl, upwards backwards, anywhere from just in front of the codend to 10 meters up in the extension piece. All sides of the grid shall be attached to the trawl.
                  
               
                     d)
                  
                  
                     In the upper panel of the trawl there shall be an unblocked fish outlet in immediate connection to the upper side of the grid. The opening of the fish outlet shall have the same width in the posterior side as the width of the grid and shall be cut out to a tip in the anterior direction along mesh bars from both sides of the grid.
                  
               
                     e)
                  
                  
                     It shall be permitted to attach in front of the grid a funnel to lead the fish towards the trawl floor and grid. The minimum mesh size of the funnel shall be 70 mm. The minimum vertical opening of the guiding funnel towards the grid shall be 30 cm. The width of the guiding funnel towards the grid shall be the grid width.
                     Schematic illustration of a size and species selective trawl. Entering fish is lead towards the trawl floor and grid via a leading funnel. Larger fish is then led out of the trawl by the grid while smaller fish and Norway lobster pass through the grid and enter the codend. The full square mesh codend enhance escapement of small fish and undersized Norway lobster.

         Condition for fisheries with certain towed gears authorized in ICES Subareas III, IV, V, VI and VII and ICES divisions VIII a, b, c, e
         Specifications of the top square mesh window
         Specifications of 100 mm, measured as inner opening, square mesh window in the rear tapered section of the trawl, Danish seine or similar gear with a mesh size equal to or larger than 70 mm and smaller than 100 mm.
         The window shall be a rectangular section of netting. There shall be only one window. The window shall not be obstructed in any way by either internal or external attachments.
         Location of the window
         The window shall be inserted into the middle of the top panel of the rear tapered section of the trawl just in front of the untapered section constituted by the extension piece and the codend.
         The window shall terminate not more than 12 meshes from the hand braided row of meshes between the extension piece and the rear tapered section of the trawl.
         Size of the window
         The length and the width of the window shall be at least 2 m and at least 1 m respectively.
         Netting of the window
         The meshes shall have a minimum mesh opening of 100 mm. The meshes will be square meshes, i.e. all four sides of the window netting shall be cut all bars.
         The netting shall be mounted such that the bars run parallel and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the codend.
         The netting shall be single twine. The twine thickness shall be not more than 4 mm.
         Insertion of the window into the diamond meshes netting
         It shall be permitted to attach a selvedge on the four sides of the window. The diameter of this selvedge shall be no more than 12 mm.
         The stretched length of the window shall be equal to the strength length of the diamond meshes attached to the longitudinal side of the window.
         The number of diamond meshes of the top panel attached to the smallest side of the window (i.e. one metre long side which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the codend) shall be at least the number of full diamond meshes attached to the longitudinal side of the window divided by 0,7.
         Other
         The insertion of the window into the trawl is illustrated below.

                              The information specified under point 1 shall be transmitted by the vessel to the Commission of the European Communities in Brussels by Telex (SAT COM C 420599543 FISH), electronic mail (FISHERIES-telecom@cec.eu.int) or via one of the radio stations listed under point 4 below and in the form specified under point 2.

                              If it is impossible for reasons of force majeure for the message to be transmitted by the vessel, it may be transmitted on the vessel's behalf by another vessel.

                              In the case a Flag State has the technical capability to send all above messages and contents in the so-called NAF-format on behalf of its operating vessels, that Flag State may — after bilateral agreement between the Flag State and the Commission — transmit this information via a secured transmission protocol to the Commission of the European Communities in Brussels. In that case, some extra information will be added — as a kind of envelope — to the transmission (after the AD information)

      ANNEX VIII
      AUTHORISED TOPSIDE CHAFERS
      1.   ICNAF-type topside chafer
      
      The ICNAF-type topside chafer is a rectangular piece of netting to be attached to the upper side of the codend of the trawl net to reduce and prevent damage so long as such netting conforms to the following conditions:
      
                  (a)
               
               
                  this netting shall have a mesh size not less than that specified for the codend in Article 27;
               
            
                  (b)
               
               
                  this netting may be fastened to the codend only along the forward and lateral edges of the netting and at no other place in it, and shall be fastened in such a manner that it extends forward of the splitting strap no more than four meshes and ends not less than four meshes in front of the cod line mesh; where a splitting strap is not used, the netting shall not extend to more than one-third of the codend measured from not less than four meshes in front of the cod line mesh;
               
            
                  (c)
               
               
                  the width of this netting shall be at least one and a half times the width of the area of the codend which is covered, such widths to be measured at right angles to the long axis of the codend.
                  
            2.   Multiple flap-type topside chafer
      
      The multiple flap-type topside chafer is defined as pieces of netting having in all their parts meshes the size of which, whether the pieces of netting are wet or dry, is not less than that of the codend, provided that:
      
                  (i)
               
               
                  each piece of netting
                  
                              (a)
                           
                           
                              is fastened by its forward edge only across the codened at right angles to its long axis;
                           
                        
                              (b)
                           
                           
                              is of a width of at least the width of the codend (such width being measured at right angles to the long axis of the codend at the point of attachment); and
                           
                        
                              (c)
                           
                           
                              is not more than ten meshes long; and
                           
                        
            
                  (ii)
               
               
                  the aggregate length of all the pieces of netting so attached does not exceed two-thirds of the length of the codend.
                  
            POLISH CHAFER
      3.   Large-mesh (modified Polish-type) topside chafer
      
      The large-mesh topside chafer consists of a rectangular piece of netting made of the same twine material as the codend, or of a single, thick, knotless twine material, attached to the rear portion of the upper side of the codend and extending over all or any part of the upper side of the codend and having in all its parts a mesh size twice that of the codend when measured wet and fastened to the codend along the forward, lateral and rear edges only of the netting in such a way that each mesh of the netting coincides with four meshes of the codend.
      
         
   
   
      ANNEX IX
      SHRIMP TRAWL TOGGLE CHAINS: NAFO AREA
      Toggle chains are chains, ropes, or a combination of both, which attach the footrope to the fishing line or bolchline at varying intervals. The terms ‘fishing line’ and ‘bolchline’ are interchangeable. Some vessels use one line only; others use both a fishing line and a bolchline as shown in the sketch. The toggle chain length shall be measured from the center of the chain or wire running through the footrope (center of footrope) to the underside of the fishing line.
      The attached sketch shows how to measure the toggle chain length.
