SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf
of Mexico Fishery Management Council
(Council) will convene a joint meeting
of the Standing and Special Reef Fish
Scientific and Statistical Committees
(SSCs) to review draft Amendment 26 to
the Reef Fish Fishery Management Plan
(FMP) that contains alternatives to
establish an individual fishing quota
(IFQ) program for the commercial red
snapper fishery in the Gulf of Mexico
that has been declared to be overfished
and undergoing overfishing. The IFQ
program is being considered to address
existing and emerging problems
resulting from overcapitalization in this
fishery while it recovers. Actions being
considered as part of the IFQ program
include: its duration, eligibility for
shares, initial allocation of shares,
potential caps and/or restrictions on
shares, and transferability of shares.
Other actions being considered include:
whether or not shares must be used;
how adjustments to the commercial
quota will affect allocations and shares;
the possible requirement of vessel
monitoring systems (VMS) on
participating vessels; and a cost
recovery plan. The SSCs will review
this amendment and provide
recommendations for the Council’s Reef
Fish Management Committee to review
at their November 14 – 17, 2005
meeting.
Although other non-emergency issues
not on the agendas may come before the
SSCs for discussion, in accordance with
the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act (MSFCMA), those issues may not be the
subject of formal action during these
meetings. Actions of the SSCs will be
