AMR is authorized to provide Electronic Monitoring (EM) services to commercial ground fish vessels in Alaska. Because this system records evidence of federal fisheries violations enforced by this agency, it is necessary to have the capability to review the information stored on AMR hard drives. The video and other data is viewable only by the AMR software. Because AMR systems are used throughout Alaska, it is necessary for NOAA OLE offices throughout Alaska to have this software in order to conduct investigations. The video is normally of activity from a fishing trip of three to five days. In other words, it is not feasible to have one office review hard drives for evidence and then forward evidence to investigators in other offices. This software will be installed on forensic computers that are NOT connected to the NMFS Active Directory. BRAND NAME JUSTIFICATION: The source has one or more of the following: an established exclusive licensing agreement, proprietary data, limited rights in data, patent rights, OEM required certifications or OEM authorized reseller, copyrights or secret processes with regard to the supplies or services required.
