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.

3. • This NOFO provides funding for only two types of apprenticeship programs –
U.S. DOL Registered Apprenticeship and Pre-Apprenticeship
• Registered Apprenticeship. As defined by the Office of Apprenticeship of the U.S.
Department of Labor, “Registered Apprenticeship” is an effective “earn and learn”
model with a long history of providing career ladders and pathways to the middle
class, particularly for the building and construction industry but increasingly in
other industries as well. Registered Apprenticeships must have five
components: business involvement, structured on‐the‐job training, related
classroom and workplace instruction, rewards for skills gains, and an industry
recognized credential at the successful completion of training.
• Pre‐Apprenticeship. Pre‐Apprenticeship is defined in Training and Employment
Notice No. 13‐12 as ”a program or set of strategies designed to prepare
individuals to enter and succeed in a Registered Apprenticeship program and has
a documented partnership with at least one, if not more, Registered
Apprenticeship program(s).” A quality Pre‐Apprenticeship program is one that
incorporates the following elements: (a) approved training and curriculum; (b)
strategies for long‐term success; (c) access to appropriate support services; (d)
promotes greater use of Registered Apprenticeship to increase future
opportunities; (e) meaningful hands‐on training that does not displace paid
employees; and (f) facilitated entry and/or articulation.”
Program Background
4. • 606 new Registered Apprentices produced

Uniform Budget Template - Overview
25. Factors affecting allowability of costs:
• Be necessary and reasonable for the performance of the Federal award and be
allocable under the Federal Cost Principles.
• Conform to any limitations or exclusions set forth in these principles or in the
Federal award as to types or amount of cost items.
• Be consistent with policies and procedures that apply uniformly to both federally-
financed and other activities of the non-Federal entity.
• Be accorded consistent treatment. A cost may not be assigned to a Federal
award as a direct cost if any other cost incurred for the same purpose in like
circumstances has been allocated to the Federal award as an indirect cost.
• Be determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP), except, for state and local governments and Indian tribes only, as
otherwise provided for in this Part.
• Not be included as a cost or used to meet cost sharing or matching requirements
of any other federally financed program in either the current or a prior period.
• Be adequately documented.
Allowable Costs § 200.403
26. A cost is reasonable if, in its nature and amount, it does not exceed that which would be
incurred by a prudent person under the circumstances prevailing at the time the decision
was made to incur the cost. The question of reasonableness is particularly important
when the non-Federal entity is predominantly federally-funded. In determining
reasonableness of a given cost, consideration must be given to:
• Whether the cost is of a type generally recognized as ordinary and necessary for the
operation of the non- Federal entity or the proper and efficient performance of the
Federal award.
• The restraints or requirements imposed by such factors as: sound business
practices; arm’s-length bargaining; Federal, state and other laws and regulations;
and terms and conditions of the Federal award.
• Market prices for comparable goods or services for the geographic area.
• Whether the individuals concerned acted with prudence in the circumstances
considering their responsibilities to the non-Federal entity, its employees, where
applicable its students or membership, the public at large, and the Federal
government.
• Whether the non-Federal entity significantly deviates from its established practices
and policies regarding the incurrence of costs, which may unjustifiably increase the
Federal award’s cost.
Reasonable Costs § 200.404
27. • A cost is allocable to a particular Federal award or other cost objective if the goods
or services involved are chargeable or assignable to that Federal award or cost
objective in accordance with relative benefits received. This standard is met if the
cost:
– Is incurred specifically for the Federal award;
– Benefits both the Federal award and other work of the non-Federal entity and
can be distributed in proportions that may be approximated using reasonable
methods; and
– Is necessary to the overall operation of the non-Federal entity and is assignable
in part to the Federal award in accordance with the principles in this subpart.
• All activities which benefit from the non-Federal entity’s indirect (F&A) cost, including
unallowable activities and donated services by the non-Federal entity or third
parties, will receive an appropriate allocation of indirect costs.
Allocable Costs § 200.405
28. • Direct costs: Costs that can be identified specifically with
a particular final cost objective, such as a Federal award, or
other internally or externally funded activity, or that can be
directly assigned to such activities relatively easily with a
high degree of accuracy. § 200.413
• Indirect Costs (Facilities and Administration): Costs
incurred for a common or joint purpose benefitting more
than one cost objective, and not readily assignable to the
cost objectives specifically benefitted, without effort
disproportionate to the results achieved. § 200.456
