SUMMARY: NMFS announces that the
Atlantic bluefish commercial quota
available to New York has been
harvested. Vessels issued a commercial
Federal fisheries permit for the Atlantic
bluefish fishery may not land bluefish
in New York for the remainder of
calendar year 2006, unless additional
quota becomes available through a
transfer. Regulations governing the
Atlantic bluefish fishery require
publication of this notification to advise
New York that the quota has been
harvested and to advise vessel permit
holders and dealer permit holders that
no commercial quota is available for
landing bluefish in New York.
DATES: Effective 0001 hours, December
12, 2006, through 2400 hours, December
31, 2006.

Douglas Potts, Fishery Management
Specialist, (978) 281–9341.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Regulations governing the Atlantic
bluefish fishery are found at 50 CFR part
648. The regulations require annual
specification of a commercial quota that
is apportioned on a percentage basis
among the coastal states from Florida
through Maine. The process to set the
annual commercial quota and the
percent allocated to each state is
described in § 648.160.
The initial coast wide commercial
quota for Atlantic bluefish for the 2006
calendar year was set equal to 4,215,802
lb (1,912 mt) (71 FR 9472, February 24,
2006). The initial commercial quota was
adjusted by transferring 3,865,294 lb
(1,753 mt) from the recreational
allocation, resulting in a total
commercial quota of 8,081,096 lb (3,666
mt). The percent allocated to vessels
landing bluefish in New York is 10.3851
percent, resulting in an initial
PO 00000

Fmt 4700

commercial quota of 839,230 lb (380,672
kg). The 2006 allocation was reduced to
775,526 lb (351,773 kg) (71 FR 27977,
May 15, 2006) due to research set-aside
and a quota overage in 2005. New York
received transfers of commercial
bluefish quota from Virginia (71 FR
42315, July 26, 2006) and Florida (71 FR
51531, August 30, 2006), which resulted
in a 2006 allocation of 1,025,526 lb
(465,171 kg).
Section 648.161(b) requires the
Administrator, Northeast Region, NMFS
(Regional Administrator) to monitor
state commercial quotas and to
determine when a state’s commercial
quota has been harvested. NMFS then
publishes a notification in the Federal
Register to advise the state and to notify
Federal vessel and dealer permit holders
that, effective upon a specific date, the
state’s commercial quota has been
harvested and no commercial quota is
available for landing bluefish in that
state. The Regional Administrator has
determined, based upon dealer reports
and other available information, that
New York has harvested its quota for
2006.
The regulations at § 648.4(b) provide
that Federal permit holders agree, as a
condition of the permit, not to land
bluefish in any state that the Regional
Administrator has determined no longer
has commercial quota available.
Therefore, effective 0001 hours,
December 12, 2006, further landings of
bluefish in New York by vessels holding
Atlantic bluefish commercial Federal
fisheries permits are prohibited for the
remainder of the 2006 calendar year,
unless additional quota becomes
available through a transfer and is
announced in the Federal Register.
Effective 0001 hours, December 12,
2006, federally permitted dealers are
also notified that they may not purchase
bluefish from federally permitted
vessels that land in New York for the
remainder of the calendar year, or until
additional quota becomes available
through a transfer.

This action is required by 50 CFR part
648 and is exempt from review under
Executive Order 12866.
