2019-07304 Requirements of the Vessel Monitoring System Type-Approval Rule All owners of vessels participating in a NOAA Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) program are required to acquire a NMFS-approved Enhanced Mobile Transmitting Unit (EMTU) or Mobile Transmitting Unit (MTU) to comply with the Vessel Monitoring System requirements. This final action amends the existing VMS Type-Approval regulations by removing the requirement for VMS vendors to periodically renew their EMTU/MTU type-approvals.

Removing the type-approval renewal requirement will spare fishermen, VMS vendors and the government the time and expense associated with the renewal process. 2019-04-12 2019 4 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2019/04/12/2019-07304/requirements-of-the-vessel-monitoring-system-type-approval https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2019-04-12/pdf/2019-07304.pdf Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 54,361 All owners of vessels participating in a NOAA Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) program are required to acquire a NMFS-approved Enhanced Mobile Transmitting Unit (EMTU) or Mobile Transmitting Unit (MTU) to comply with the Vessel Monitoring System...
