Highly Migratory Species Division Shark Research Fishery Permits

Description

Commercial fishermen interested in participating in the shark research fishery must submit an application and vessel/permit documentation for the Agency to consider. Annually, the Agency randomly selects participants from among applicants. The Atlantic shark research fishery is a program with 100% observer coverage that collects fishing and biological data on all sharks, including sandbar sharks (a species prohibited from being landed and sold), for stock assessments and other scientific purposes.
