NOAA Fisheries announces that the report on the recent independent program review of the Northeast Fisheries Science Center’s Fisheries Sampling Branch is now available. Fishery monitoring is a vital part of our data collection and delivery. We take very seriously our role in ensuring its quality and our accountability to the fishermen, seafood dealers, and researchers and fishery managers who help provide the data and rely on our products. The review was conducted early this year by IC Independent Consulting. The final report and a memo outlining our planned actions in response to the findings are available on our website. |
