TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION AND THE SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE



Members are advised that, in accordance with the decisions made at the 2012 Scientific Committee meeting, the scientific observer logbooks and cruise report format have been updated and placed on the CCAMLR website in all languages.



National technical coordinators of the Scientific Observer Program have been asked to ensure that their observers receive the updated logbooks and cruise report format for use during the 2013 season.



Details of the 2013 CCAMLR Tagging Program – Tag Return Prize Draw are available from the website in a poster format. Members are asked to ensure that all of their toothfish vessels operating in exploratory fisheries during 2013 are made aware of the details of the prize draw.
