1 Unloading Authorisation Code and Mass Balance Tacking Francisco Blaha

2 The concept originates from work done for the DevFISH II It is based in the simple fact that Fish does not become IUU during processing, but is either caught or landed illegally The concept mixes two basic elements: The requirements (in one way or another) of Port State Measures Agreement (PSMA) and a Traceability Key Data Element needed to follow a landing through the value chain

3 The CDS Iceberg FULL Traceability Catch to Market Consistency Accuracy Format The Cer'ficate Volumes check/ e-logsheet Na8onal legisla8ons What happen to the fish volumes we received? Inspec8ons and boardings Port State Measures Observers VMS WCPFC CMMs Mass Balance Audits Bilateral Agreements MCS (Monitoring Control and Surveillance) Catch Accountancy Catch Legality

4 The process - MCS VMS e-reporting What pathway we have: Port Arrival Notification: takes care of all the details, cargo, VMS tracks, etc. defining the risk category (FFA s Vessels Compliance Index) of the vessels and allocating a Unloading Authorisation Code - UAC. Arrival and Offloading Inspection: based on the arrival notification category the frequency target is established (25%, 75% or 100%) and the depth of inspection, including local and WCPFO requirements. Processing Establishments: establish a Mass Balance exercise (fish declared in, fish in stock, fish out) and UAC tracing. Export permits: Tracing the fish to be exported back to the UACs and then CCS (or any CDs) UAC

14 Fish Accountancy & Catch Certification Gives Starting Sum for Mass Balance tracking The figures and its origins can be verified in the case of weight in at wharfs or processing establishments

15 Fish Accountancy & Catch Certification Fish movements are assigned to trade cert that maintains the mass balance tracking It can produce any catch certificate in a pre established format according to the market, as data fields are standardised
