National Marine Fisheries Service issues permits to fishing industry individuals and corporations and also to individual recreational fishers.
A wide range of permit types are issued. Some representative examples are:
Fisheries are managed regionally, but, many participants in the fishing industry are national or multinational in scope. It would be a convenience to these participants to offer a one-stop-shop for permits. Also, a one-stop-shop would facilitate maintenance of a single identifier for an industry participant who fishes or processes fish in multiple regions, and it would leverage efforts to improve data quality across regions.
NIST 800-30: Risk Management Guide for Information Technology Systems defines risk as a function of the likelihood of a given threat-source's exercising a particular potential vulnerability, and the resulting impact of that adverse event on the organization.
