States to take actions necessary to meet its treaty obligations as a
Contracting Party to the Convention. The regulations implementing
AMLRCA are at 50 CFR part 300, subpart G. The record keeping and

resources from waters regulated by CCAMLR related to ecosystem
research, U.S. harvesting permit application and/or harvesting vessel

Convention.
