On August 25, Federal Government-Financed Institution “Center of Fishery Monitoring and Communications” (CFMC) of the Federal Fishery Agency in cooperation with Gonets Sattelite System OJSC, operator of State Space Corporation Roscosmos on communication systems, launched yet another vessel within the framework of the pilot development of electronic ship’s fishing log, says CFMC.
The vessel will be engaged in fishery within the Azov-Black Sea. Similar complexes were earlier launched in the Far East and the Northern Basins.
This work is carried out in compliance with the governmental Resolution #2534-r adopted on December 25, 2013, “On approving the action plan aimed at combating illegal, unreported and unregulated catch”.
The findings will be later used when the system is put into operation all over the territory of the Russian Federation. (Portnews/Business World Magazine)
