Description [Targets] |
Limitations of benthic impacting fishing gears on biogenic substrates - By 2018 it is necessary to reinforce control and monitoring systems in order to avoid benthic impacting fishing gears on biogenic substrates, also taking into consideration the limitations already prescribed by European Regulations (Reg. EC 1967/2006), and for the relevant aspects the EU Reg. N. 1224/2009.
In order to assess the achievement of the target it is necessary to verify the increasing in controls on vessels using benthic impacting fishing gears (otter trawl, rapido trawl, hydraulic dredge). These controls should be substantially increased for ships with LOA <15 m. |
