<p>Dear Platform Group,
<br />
<br />A request has come in for a new code for the vessel <a href='https://vocab.ices.dk/Request/Default.aspx?id=32014' target='_blank'>WHITEHORSE</a> from CA: CANADA. This code suggestion will need confirmation by NOAA.
<br />
<br />This seems to be the same vessel on the NOAA archive list with code 18WT and call sign CGAZ. Please check years of data before approval.
