Translation of "chalutier congélateur " (French → English) :

up to a maximum of 1 % in 2015 and 0,75 % in 2016 of the TAC of boarfish (Caproidae) in the fishery targeting horse mackerel (Trachurus spp.) with pelagic freezer trawlers using midwater trawls in ICES zones VI and VII.

The de minimis exemption of up to a maximum of 1 % in 2015 and 0,75 % in 2016 of the TAC of boarfish (Caproidae) in the fishery targeting horse mackerel (Trachurus spp.) with pelagic freezer trawlers using midwater trawls in ICES zones VI and VII is based on the difficulty to increase selectivity, and the disproportionate costs of handling (separating wanted from unwanted catches).

In order to protect spawning grounds and local small-scale fishing, the fishing area for Community vessels stretches up to 12 nautical miles from the coast for freezer tuna seiners, pole-and-line vessels and surface longliners, and up to 6 nautical miles from the coast in the case of freezer trawlers.
