SUMMARY: NMFS issues this notice to
notify the public that the United States
has accepted conservation and
management measures and resolutions
pertaining to fishing in Antarctic waters
managed by the Commission for the
Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living
Resources (Commission or CCAMLR).
The Commission adopted these
measures at its twenty-fifth meeting in
Hobart, Tasmania, October 23 to
November 3, 2006. The measures have
been agreed upon by the Member
countries of CCAMLR, including the
United States, in accordance with
Article IX of the Convention for the
Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living
Resources (the Convention). The
measures: include measures previously

adopted by the Commission and
remaining in force; measures adopted
for the 2006/2007 fishing season to
restrict overall catches, research catch
and bycatch of certain species of fish,
krill and crab; limit participation in
several exploratory fisheries; restrict
fishing in certain areas and to certain
gear types; and set forth: fishing seasons
fishery-by-fishery, revisions to
previously adopted measures; new
measures, and new resolutions. The
Commission also adopted a list of
vessels suspected to be engaged in
illegal, unregulated or unreported
fishing in the Convention Area.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the CCAMLR
conservation and management measures
may be obtained from the Assistant
Administrator for Fisheries, NOAA,

Robin Tuttle, 301–713–2282.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The full text of the conservation and
management measures and resolutions
agreed to by consensus by CCAMLR at
its 2006 meeting were published by the
U.S. Department of State in a formal
notice in the Federal Register on
January 29, 2007 (72 FR 4068).
Public comments were invited on the
notice; one comment was received. The
commenter suggested that the use of
gillnets and longlines be banned in the
Convention Area. As indicated in the
Department of State notice, CCAMLR
has adopted an interim prohibition on
the use of deep-sea gillnets. The
prohibition will remain in force until
the CCAMLR Scientific Committee has
investigated and reported on the
potential impacts of gillnets in the
Convention Area. Regarding longline
fishing, CCAMLR first adopted
measures requiring fishers to employ
techniques minimizing the incidental
mortality of seabirds in the course of
longline fishing in 1991. At its 2006
meeting, CCAMLR’s Ad Hoc Working
Group on Incidental Mortality
Associated with Fishing noted the
resulting continuing low levels of
incidental mortality of seabirds in
regulated longline fisheries in most
parts of the Convention Area. There
were no reports of incidental mortality
of marine mammals in longline gear in
the 2005/2006 fishing season.
Through this action, NMFS notifies
the public that the United States has
accepted the measures and resolutions
adopted at CCAMLR’s twenty-fifth
meeting. NMFS provides the following
