Observer Performance Evaluation

during their deployment on your vessel. Please fill in the information below and return it to the port
coordinator. The information you provide is important in helping us to collect quality data that is being
used for stock assessments and fishing regulations. If you are the owner of the vessel and were not
present during the trip, please consult with your captain.
