Report hanging abalone activity

An abalone endorsement holder is required to provide information to the Secretary in relation to each occasion on which the endorsement holder hangs abalone.

When hanging abalone this form is required to be used by NSW abalone endorsement holders (in addition to the catch report) to comply with additional reporting requirements under clause 30A 1(c)of the Fisheries Management (Abalone Share Management Plan) Regulation 2000 pending enhancements to the online reporting system.

An endorsement holder that hangs abalone must complete this online form:

  • (a) before the endorsement holder moves more than 50 metres from where the endorsement holder came ashore, or
  • (b) before any of the catch is taken out of New South Wales, or
  • (c) within 30 minutes of the endorsement holder coming ashore.
