Description
This app is made for operators of federally regulated fishing vessels in the Greater Atlantic Region of the USA who are required to submit Vessel Trip Report (VTR) reports based on their Federal Fishing Permit, Exempted Fishing Permit or Research Set-Aside program.
This is a free service provided by NOAA Fisheries as an alternative to the paper VTR report. This app makes the reporting process faster, clearer, and eliminates the need to download references for port and species codes.
This is an official app from NOAA Fisheries and reporting through this app constitutes regulatory compliance. All data is submitted directly and securely to NOAA Fisheries Greater Atlantic Regional Fisheries Office (GARFO). Use of this app complies with any GARFO mandated requirement for electronic reporting (eVTR).
Users must contact NOAA Fisheries at 978-281-9188 for credentials to use this app. Users must possess a valid GARFO Vessel Operator Permit.
What’s New
Version 4.0.6
FOL version 4.0.6 is a maintenance release which fixes an issue where a user could submit a trip with an empty Gear Size.
Ratings and Reviews
Easiest Method Since Paper VTR
I’ve used a couple other electronic reporting programs on laptop computers that weren’t user friendly. Coupled with the fact you needed a WiFi connection to submit them made it a general pain in the backside.
In my experience, it’s user-friendly and generally reliable. I can spend 5 minutes each trip to complete a report and submit.
FV Captain
App is functional. Continued updates are nice. Currently, the ability to share a VTR via text/iMessage after its complete is no longer available. That was how I’ve been sharing my VTR’s. Could you all bring that back please?
Don’t work
It’s good when it works ,there’s a problem with it now you can’t type in username or password . Spent all morning on the phone with Nmfs trying to get there computer to work. They need to look into this and fix it. Update they have called me and we think the problem is in my phone as my iPad works with this . I must say the folks at Noaa did call back and where helpful
