Vessels fishing with longlines in ICES sub-areas VIIIa and b shall use at least two of the following mitigation measures: bird scaring lines, weighted lines, setting the longline gear during the hours of darkness with the minimum of deck lighting necessary for safety.

for electronic recording equipment which is equipment operating by signals transmitted electrically from the distance and speed sensor, any interruption exceeding 100 milliseconds in the power supply of the recording equipment (except lighting), in the power supply of the distance and speed sensor and any interruption in the signal lead to the distance and speed sensor.

‘geometric visibility’ means the angles which determine the square field in which the light-emitting surface of the lighting device is completely visible when the relevant angles (α vertical and β horizontal) are measured at the outward contour of the apparent surface and the lamp is observed from afar. However, if any obstacles is located within this field and partly obscuring the light-emitting surface, it may be accepted where it is proven that, even with such obstructions, the photometric values prescribed for the type-approval of the lighting device as component are complied with;

As the Commission has indicated, the mere number of leased line termination points does not take into account the different types of leased lines that are available on the market - ranging from analogue voice quality to high-speed digital leased lines, short distance to long distance international leased lines.
