Background
SUMMARY: The Assistant Administrator
for Fisheries (AA), NOAA, announces
the extension of temporary restrictions
consistent with the requirements of the
Atlantic Large Whale Take Reduction
Plan’s (ALWTRP) implementing
regulations. These restrictions will
continue to apply to lobster trap and
anchored gillnet fishermen in an area
totaling approximately 1,809 nm2 (6,204
km2), east of Portland, Maine, for an
additional 15 days. The purpose of this
action is to provide immediate
protection to an aggregation of Northern
right whales (right whales).
DATES: This notice extends the restricted
period from 0001 hours December 18,
2006, through 2400 hours January 1,
2007.

The ALWTRP was developed
pursuant to section 118 of the Marine
Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) to
reduce the incidental mortality and
serious injury of three endangered
species of whales (right, fin, and
humpback) due to incidental interaction
with commercial fishing activities. In
addition, the measures identified in the
ALWTRP would provide conservation
benefits to a fourth species (minke),
which are neither listed as endangered
nor threatened under the Endangered
Species Act (ESA). The ALWTRP,
implemented through regulations
codified at 50 CFR 229.32, relies on a
combination of fishing gear
modifications and time/area closures to
reduce the risk of whales becoming
entangled in commercial fishing gear
(and potentially suffering serious injury
or mortality as a result).
On January 9, 2002, NMFS published
the final rule to implement the
ALWTRP’s DAM program (67 FR 1133).
On August 26, 2003, NMFS amended
the regulations by publishing a final
rule, which specifically identified gear
modifications that may be allowed in a
DAM zone (68 FR 51195). The DAM
program provides specific authority for
NMFS to restrict temporarily on an
expedited basis the use of lobster trap/
pot and anchored gillnet fishing gear in
areas north of 40°00′ N. lat. to protect
right whales. Under the DAM program,
NMFS may: (1) Require the removal of
all lobster trap/pot and anchored gillnet
fishing gear for a 15-day period; (2)
allow lobster trap/pot and anchored
gillnet fishing within a DAM zone with
gear modifications determined by NMFS
to sufficiently reduce the risk of
entanglement; and/or (3) issue an alert
to fishermen requesting the voluntary
removal of all lobster trap/pot and
anchored gillnet gear for a 15-day period
and asking fishermen not to set any
additional gear in the DAM zone during
the 15-day period.
A DAM zone is triggered when NMFS
receives a reliable report from a
qualified individual of three or more
right whales sighted within an area (75
nm2 (139 km2)) such that right whale
density is equal to or greater than 0.04
right whales per nm2 (1.85 km2). A
qualified individual is an individual
ascertained by NMFS to be reasonably
able, through training or experience, to
