The Law Library presents the complete text of the Fisheries of the Northeastern United States - Northeast Multispecies Fishery - Emergency Secretarial Action (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Regulation) (NOAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 NMFS implements this interim final rule pursuant to its authority to issue emergency measures under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act). This emergency action implements measures intended to reduce immediately the fishing mortality rate (F) on certain groundfish species to prevent overfishing and maintain the rebuilding programs of the Northeast (NE) Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP). Specifically, this emergency action implements differential days-at-sea (DAS) counting for all groundfish vessels not participating in the U.S./Canada Management Area on Georges Bank (GB), reduced trip limits for certain species, and recreational possession restrictions, among other provisions. In addition, this action continues two programs that would otherwise expire by the end of the 2005 fishing year (FY) on April 30, 2006: The DAS Leasing Program and a modified Regular B DAS Program on GB. Due to the impact of these proposed measures on the monkfish fishery, this emergency action also limits participation of monkfish Category C, D, or F permits in the Regular B DAS Program and revises the method of calculating available monkfish-only DAS for Category C, D, F, G, or H monkfish vessels. Further, this action eliminates the daily and maximum trip limits for haddock for FY 2006. Also, because of the substantive nature of this emergency rule and the necessary shortened comment period on the proposed rule for this action, this rule is being implemented as an emergency interim action and seeks additional public comment. This action is intended to prevent overfishing while maintaining specific programs designed to help mitigate the economic and social impacts of effort reductions under the FMP until more permanent management measures can be implemented through Framework Adjustment (FW) 42 to the FMP.

The Law Library presents the complete text of the Fisheries of the Northeastern United States - Northeast Multispecies Fishery - Secretarial Interim Action (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Regulation) (NOAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 NMFS implements this final interim rule pursuant to its authority to issue interim management measures under the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act). This action is intended to immediately reduce overfishing on certain stocks managed by the Northeast (NE) Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP), without jeopardizing the likelihood that overfished stocks can achieve rebuilding objectives until long-term measures can be implemented under Amendment 16 to the FMP. Measures for the commercial fishery include an expanded differential days-at-sea (DAS) area in Southern New England (SNE), where a vessel will be charged 2 days for every day fished, and modified groundfish trip limits. In addition, this action maintains the scheduled fishing year (FY) 2009 DAS reduction included in the FMP, which results in an approximate 18-percent reduction in Category A DAS. For private recreational vessels fishing in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), and for federally permitted charter/party vessels, this action extends in time a seasonal prohibition on the possession of Gulf of Maine (GOM) cod, and prohibits the possession of SNE/Mid-Atlantic (MA) winter flounder. For federally permitted charter/party vessels, this action implements a trip limit for Georges Bank (GB) cod. In addition, this action implements measures to mitigate some of the negative, short-term economic impacts of the FMP by expanding the Closed Area I (CA I) Hook Gear Haddock Special Access Program (SAP); modifying the DAS Leasing Program, the Regular B DAS Program, and the DAS Transfer Program; continuing the Eastern U.S./Canada Haddock SAP; and implementing a reduction in the haddock minimum size to 18 inches (45 cm) for both commercial and recreational vessels. This action also specifies management measures for the U.S./Canada Management Area for FY 2009. NMFS anticipates that the interim measures will need to be renewed upon the rule's expiration for an additional 185 days. Therefore, NMFS is requesting public comments on these measures; comments received will be considered during any subsequent action to extend this final interim rule.

The Law Library presents the complete text of the Fisheries of the Northeastern United States - Northeast (NE) Multispecies Fishery - Emergency Secretarial Action - Extension (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Regulation) (NOAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 NMFS continues management measures implemented by an April 13, 2006, emergency interim final rule that were set to expire on October 10, 2006. Specifically, this temporary rule continues differential days-at-sea (DAS) counting for all groundfish vessels not fishing exclusively within the U.S./Canada Management Area on Georges Bank (GB), reduced trip limits for certain species, and recreational possession restrictions, among other provisions. In addition, this action continues two programs that would otherwise have expired on April 30, 2006: The DAS Leasing Program and a modified Regular B DAS Program on GB. This action is necessary to continue measures that immediately reduce fishing mortality rates (F) on overfished groundfish stocks while maintaining specific programs designed to help mitigate the economic and social impacts of effort reductions under the NE Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP). This action is intended to maintain the rebuilding programs established for the FMP until more permanent management measures can be implemented through Framework Adjustment (FW) 42 to the FMP.

The Law Library presents the complete text of the Fisheries of the Northeastern United States - Northeast Multispecies Fishery (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Regulation) (NOAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 NMFS partially approves Framework Adjustment 50 (Framework 50) to the Northeast (NE) Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP), and implements the approved measures. NMFS also implements three parallel emergency actions to set fishing year (FY) 2013 catch limits for Georges Bank (GB) yellowtail flounder and white hake, and to modify the maximum Gulf of Maine (GOM) cod carryover available to sectors from FY 2012 to FY 2013. Framework 50 sets specifications for FYs 2013-2015, including 2013 total allowable catches (TACs) for U.S./Canada stocks, and revises the rebuilding program and management measures for Southern New England/Mid-Atlantic (SNE/MA) winter flounder. This final rule also implements FY 2013 management measures for the recreational and common pool fisheries and clarifies how to account for sector carryover for FY 2013 and for FY 2014 and beyond. These actions are necessary to prevent overfishing, rebuild overfished stocks, achieve optimum yield (OY), and ensure that management measures are based on the best available scientific information.

The Law Library presents the complete text of the Fisheries of the Northeastern United States - Northeast Multispecies Fishery - Interim Action - Republication (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Regulation) (NOAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 NMFS is republishing a temporary rule that implements interim Gulf of Maine (GOM) Atlantic cod (cod) management measures for the 2012 fishing year. This republication is necessary to ensure the effective date for the rule's measures are consistent with NMFS's interim rule authority provided by the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act). This rule is unchanged from the rule published on April 3, 2012, and subsequently withdrawn. The need of the interim measures is unchanged by the withdrawal and republication: To establish GOM cod Annual Catch Limits (ACLs); implement recreational management measures that will constrain catch to the recreational sub-ACL; and reduce overfishing occurring on GOM cod in anticipation of further action to end overfishing in fishing year 2013.

"An emergency action was developed to revise the fishing year 2011 GOM winter flounder catch limits in the Northeast multispecies fishery. Revision to the GOM winter flounder catch limits for fishing year 2011 is warranted based upon a new stock assessment for GOM winter flounder (June 2011) and recommended specifications from the New England Fishery Management Council based on that assessment"--Cover letter; Portfolio comprised of two related PDF documents digitized and organized by: NOAA Office of Program Planning and Integration (PPI) National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) staff.
"Under the Fishery Conservation and Management Act, plans are being developed to manage both domestic and foreign fishing within 200 miles of the U.S. coastline. This report discusses problems that have prevented effective enforcement of the regulations implementing two of these plans and steps that need to be taken if the conservation and management goals of the act are to be achieved."--Transmittal letter.
"NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has prepared a Secretarial Amendment, under the authority of Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) section 304(c)1)(A), for the small-mesh multispecies component of the Northeast Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP). The Secretarial Amendment is intended to establish a mechanism for specifying annual catch limits (ACLs) and accountability measures (AMs) for silver hake, red hake, and offshore hake, collectively known as 'small-mesh multispecies.' There are two stocks each of silver and red hake (northern and southern), and one stock of offshore hake. Offshore hake are primarily caught incidentally in the southern silver hake fishery and they are marketed together as 'whiting.' The New England Fishery Management Council (Council) is responsible for managing the small-mesh multispecies fishery through the Northeast Multispecies FMP and initiated the development of an amendment in 2009 (Amendment 19) to that management plan to implement ACLs and AMs for the small-mesh multispecies. However, development of Amendment 19 was delayed in order to incorporate the results from a stock assessment of all three species that occurred in November 2010 (Stock Assessment Workshop (SAW) 51.) The Magnuson-Stevens Act requires the establishment of the ACL and AM framework by 2011. NMFS is developing this action to meet that deadline and bring the small-mesh multispecies fishery into compliance with the Magnuson-Stevens Act. While the Secretarial Amendment does not have an expiration date, and would be in effect until Amendment 19, if approved, replaces it, NMFS intends for this amendment to act as a bridge for the small-mesh multispecies fishery and does not address the full suite of measures that the Council is developing for Amendment 19. In order to minimize confusion and ease the transition between the two amendments, NMFS chose as the preferred alternatives the most general and flexible from the Council's preliminary list of alternatives for Amendment 19. The Secretarial Amendment also proposes the same ACL framework mechanism that the Council is analyzing for Amendment 19, which is based on recommendations from the Council's Scientific and Statistical Committee (SCC)"--Executive summary (page i).
"An emergency action was developed to revise the fishing year 2010 pollock catch limits in the Northeast Multispecies Fishery. Revision to the pollock catch limits for fishing year 2010 is warranted based upon a new stock assessment for pollock (June 2010). This action was initiated based upon preliminary information, prior to completion of the stock assessment process in order to expedite the implementation of changes to catch limits"--Cover letter.
