Your opinion
DDU — according to paragraph 2 of Article VII DDU is defined as follows: (a) Two institutions, each designated by the United States of America and the Russian Federation as coastal states of the Bering Sea, jointly establish the biomass of the Aleutian Basin pollock, based on scientific and technical information considered by the Scientific and Technical Committee. (b) If the available scientific and technical information enabling the two institutions designated under paragraph (a) above to establish the biomass of the Aleutian Basin is insufficient, the Parties agree that for the purposes of this Convention, the biomass of pollock in the Special Area (note)*, determined by the institution designated by the United States of America under paragraph (a), shall be considered as 60 percent of the biomass of pollock in the Aleutian Basin. (c) If the biomass of pollock in the Aleutian Basin is less than 1.67 million tons, DDU must be zero, and therefore the specialized fishery for the Aleutian Basin pollock stock is not conducted. (d) If the Aleutian Basin pollock biomass is less than 1.67 million tons, the DUD is determined according to the following table: +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ ¦ Aleutian Basin Pollock Biomass ¦ DUD ¦ +--------------------------------------+--------------------------¦ ¦ 1.67 million tons or more, ¦ ¦ ¦ but less than 2 million tons ¦ 130,000 tons ¦ +--------------------------------------+--------------------------¦ ¦ 2 million tons or more, ¦ ¦ ¦ but less than 2.5 million tons ¦ 190,000 tons ¦ +--------------------------------------+--------------------------¦ ¦ 2.5 million tons or more ¦ determined by consensus ¦ ¦ ¦ at the Annual Conference ¦ +-----------------------------------------------------------------+1.
