THE ON-BOARD OBSERVER PROGRAM. The IATTC’s international observer program and the national observer programs of Ecuador (Programa Nacional de Observadores Pesqueros de Ecuador; PROBECUADOR), the European Union (Programa Nacional de Observadores de Túnidos, Océano Pacífico; PNOT), Mexico (Programa Nacional de Aprovechamiento del Atún y Protección de Delfines; PNAAPD), and Venezuela (Programa Nacional de Observadores de Venezuela; PNOV) constitute the AIDCP On-Board Observer Program. In addition, observers from the international observer program of the Forum Fisheries Agency (FFA) are approved by the Parties to collect information for the On-Board Observer Program on vessels that fish in the Agreement Area without setting on dolphins if the Secretariat determines that the placement of an IDCP observer is not practical.
