Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

Health Care Association of New York State Names South Nassau’s Richard J. Murphy To
its Board of Trustees
Oceanside, N.Y.— South Nassau Communities Hospital President and CEO Richard J. Murphy has
been elected Secretary of the Healthcare Association of New York State (HANYS) Board of Trustees and as a
Member of the HANYS Executive Committee for a one-year term that began January 1.
HANYS’ volunteer Board of Trustees is responsible for managing the association’s activities. The
association is the statewide advocate for more than 550 non-profit and public hospitals, nursing homes,
home care agencies, and other health care organizations in New York. Its mission is to advance the health
of individuals and communities by providing leadership, representation, and service to healthcare providers
and systems across the entire continuum of care.
“Health care today is increasingly complex for patients and providers of care. The state and federal
governments as well as private insurers are pushing for reforms and increased efficiencies. This all puts
pressure on nonprofit hospitals while demand for services has not decreased. HANYS plays a critical role in
advocating for hospitals and the communities they serve. It’s an honor to be part of the HANYS leadership
team,” said Mr. Murphy. “I look forward to working with HANYS’ administrative leadership and each member
of its Board of Trustees to continue New York’s legacy of being home to the nation’s most advanced healthcare
system.”
Mr. Murphy has been president and CEO of South Nassau since August of 2012. Mr. Murphy
spearheaded South Nassau’s October 2014 acquisition of the former Long Beach Medical Center (LBMC),
which was shuttered after SuperStorm Sandy hit and is leading efforts to establish a new healthcare delivery
system designed around the needs of the residents of Long Beach and surrounding communities. Under Mr.
Murphy’s direction, South Nassau has:
• restored emergency medical services on the barrier island with the Aug. 2015 opening of South
Nassau’s Emergency Department (ED) at Long Beach, Long Island’s first off-campus,
2. emergency department, which is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and receives
ambulances via the 9-1-1 system;
• partnered with the City of Long Beach to augment the City’s existing ambulance fleet by
providing secondary backup for 9-1-1- ambulance calls (Under the partnership, South Nassau
ambulances stationed at the ED respond when needed as backup for 9-1-1 calls);
• re-opened the Family Medicine Center at Long Beach (located at 761 Franklin Blvd.) in May of
2014 as an extension of South Nassau’s Family Medicine Center located on Merrick Rd. in
Oceanside to provide residents with quality, compassionate family medicine;
• commissioned a community needs assessment to help determine what services are needed on the
barrier island
• introduced plans to establish a Medical Arts Pavilion on the site of the former LBMC to serve as
the future home of an expanded emergency department and to potentially house other medical
services .
• initiated a $60 million renovation of the hospital’s Emergency Department at its main campus in
Oceanside to expand and better serve residents of the South Shore (South Nassau’s ED is the
only Level II Trauma Center on the South Shore of Nassau County).
• begun planning to expand critical care beds and update operating suites at the Oceanside campus.
During Mr. Murphy’s tenure, South Nassau has won a series of major awards for quality and
performance, including an ‘A’ rating for patient safety by The Leapfrog Group; Joint Commission Top
Performer on Key Quality Measures for three consecutive years, and American College of Surgeons
Commission on Cancer Outstanding Achievement Award.
Prior to coming to South Nassau, Mr. Murphy served as President and Chief Executive Officer of
Richmond University Medical Center in Staten Island, NY. Other accomplishments during his more than 30-
year career in healthcare include the execution of a successful financial post-divestiture from St. Vincent’s
Catholic Medical Center of New York, which improved facility operating performance; and development of a
strategic planning process to enhance physician partnerships, increase market share and expand capital
reinvestment. His past experience also includes a leadership role in Long Island’s Catholic Health System, as
the Executive Vice President of CHS’s Suffolk Region hospitals, which included his serving as the Chief
Executive Officer of Good Samaritan, St. Charles and St. Catherine of Siena hospitals.
Designated a Magnet® hospital by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), South Nassau®
Communities Hospital is one of the region’s largest hospitals, with 455 beds, more than 900 physicians and
3,000 employees. Located in Oceanside, NY, the hospital is an acute-care, not-for-profit teaching hospital that
provides state-of-the-art care in cardiac, oncologic, orthopedic, bariatric, pain management, mental health and
