  15. Because there is only one Statistics Clerk, 10 to 20 labor days after trip ticket arrives to CFSP, the data is already enter.

  16. Approximately 66,000 landings record records were submitted in 2010. Also approximately 12,000 records of TIP data information. Only one statistics clerk. She has to: receive the data, prepare the commercial fisher receipt, edit with the help of port samplers, file all the data, prepare list of commercial fishers that submitted regularly their data to CFSP, etc. During 2000 to 2009, the CFSP had two statistics clerk and the data entry process took probably 7-10 days to be completed in the system.

Conclusions -To improve the ornamental data collection to be a trip ticket, also obtained place and effort information -Biostatistics data will be enter by port samplers starting 2011. -Most of the reported CFSP Data flows from fishers to the Program in 30 days. -However, in the office due to personnel reduction, landings data takes 10-20 labor days from the Office to be available in the electronic format. -The addition of one full time statistic clerk will reduce the data flows from 10-20 labor days to 5 -7 days . e
