To register, the tournament operator/director must complete an Atlantic Highly Migratory Species (HMS) tournament registration form (OMB 0642-0323) and submit it to the HMS Management Division. The form includes tournament name, date(s), location, and HMS for which points or prizes will be awarded, as well as the tournament operator's name, mailing address, phone number, fax number, and e-mail address. The form also gives the operator the option of ordering a specified number of Atlantic HMS recreational regulation booklets and other outreach materials for distribution at the tournament. All of the information is entered into the HMS tournament registration database, which produces a unique confirmation number that is provided to the tournament operator by the HMS Management Division for proof of registration. The purpose of this data collection is to help meet the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) landings reporting requirements by facilitating selection of tournaments for reporting of fishing effort and landings by the Southeast Fishery Science Center. These data are also used to quantify the tournaments held for HMS to improve fishery management measure development and by the public to determine applicable regulations for vessels participating in tournaments. underDevelopment McHale, Bradley S 978-281-9260 978-281-9340 55 Great Republic Drive Gloucester MA 01930 USA brad.mchale@noaa.gov pointOfContact annually Atlantic Ocean Gulf of America Highly Migratory Species tournaments U.S. Caribbean billfish recreational sharks swordfish tuna theme DOC/NOAA/NMFS/OSF > Office of Sustainable Fisheries, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
