About this file

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The file is an Annual Biological Port Sampling Requirements spreadsheet for Fiscal Year 2025, detailing comprehensive marine species sampling requirements across multiple U.S. coastal regions including Massachusetts, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Virginia. The document provides extensive biological sampling specifications for 34 marine species, including American Lobster, Atlantic Cod, Black Sea Bass, and Yellowtail Flounder, with precise quarterly sampling requirements by region, stock area, market category, gear type, and quantity of requested length samples.

The sampling plan breaks down requirements by specific geographic regions and includes detailed flexibility guidelines, allowing for stratification adjustments if sampling opportunities are limited. The total annual sampling target is 1,911 samples across all regions, with Massachusetts-South/Cape Cod having the highest sampling volume at 523 samples, followed by Massachusetts-North with 391 samples. Each species and region has unique sampling protocols, with most samples focused on obtaining length measurements and potentially collecting additional biological data like otoliths or age structures. The spreadsheet also includes comparative data showing changes from the FY2024 sampling plan, with an overall 6.40% increase in total sampling requirements.

ID#AAABiHRmHnw Novelle Key - NOAA Federal (2025-04-17 19:21:12) @nichole.rossi@noaa.gov Hi Niki, is there a PDF of this spreadsheet floating around anywhere? I need to convert all of the attachments to PDFs to include them in the solicitation, but this is such a wide spreadsheet, and has multiple tabs, I'm not sure how to tackle it. Thanks!

As indicated, the sampling request stratification may be relaxed for a given cell (or collection of cells), if during the first two months of a quarter there have been no sampling opportunities. The flexibility guidelines are given to provide sampling guidence as a last resort, and after due diligence is made to obtain the requested sample. For various species and mkt cats, the acquistion of "small samples" will be necessary and "small samples" should be obtained before stratification is relaxed.FY2024 NOTES

As a last resort, market category can be relaxed according to the following criteria:

(1) The small and medium categories can be combined

(2) The large and extra large categories can be combined

(3) Unclassified should remain as a distinct category

For those regions where only samples are requested for the unclassified category, this market category can be relaxed even though it is unclassified

Quarter can also be relaxed. If the entire sampling request is not fulfilled in the first quarter, it can be transferred to subsequent quarters.

If a trip lands mackerel but samples were not requested for that gear/area/quarter category, please take a sample anyhow, especially if the catch is comprised of large fish. In recent years the mackerel fishery has been very unpredictable, which has made it difficult to submit sampling requests.

These flexibility guidelines are in effect throughout the entire quarter.
