ACTION: Temporary rule; inseason retention limit adjustment. sroberts on PROD1PC70 with RULES AGENCY: SUMMARY: NMFS has determined that the Atlantic tunas General category daily Atlantic bluefin tuna (BFT) retention limit should be adjusted for the September and October time period Jkt 211001 Brad McHale, 978–281–9260. 50 CFR Part 635 19:52 Aug 30, 2007 The effective dates for the BFT daily retention limits are provided in Table 1 under SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION. DATES: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration VerDate Aug<31>2005 of the 2007 fishing year. The adjustment will allow for maximum utilization of the General category quota. Therefore, NMFS increases the daily BFT retention limits to provide enhanced commercial fishing opportunities without risking overharvest of the General category quota. Regulations implemented under the authority of the Atlantic Tunas Convention Act (16 U.S.C. 971 et seq.) and the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act; 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.) governing the harvest of BFT by persons and vessels subject to U.S. jurisdiction are found at 50 CFR part 635. Section 635.27 subdivides the U.S. BFT quota recommended by the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) among the various domestic fishing categories. The 2007 fishing year began on June 1, 2007, and ends December 31, 2007. NMFS proposed 2007 fishing year specifications to set BFT quotas and PO 00000 Frm 00057 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 General category effort controls on April 4, 2007 (72 FR 16318). These proposed specifications considered adjusting the daily retention limits throughout the 2007 season and received favorable public support. NMFS published final specifications on June 18, 2007 (72 FR 33401) and increased the default General category retention limit of one large medium or giant BFT (measuring 73 inches (185 cm) curved fork length (CFL) or greater) per vessel per day/trip to three large medium or giant BFT, measuring 73 inches CFL or greater, per vessel per day/trip through August 31, 2007. This action enhances commercial BFT fishing opportunities to those vessels permitted in the Atlantic tunas General category and the Highly Migratory Species (HMS) Charter/ Headboat category, while fishing commercially. In addition, NMFS stated that it would consider adjustment of retention of retention limits for future time periods, if warranted. Daily Retention Limits Pursuant to this action, the daily BFT retention limits for the Atlantic tunas General and HMS Charter/Headboat categories are as follows: E:\FR\FM\31AUR1.SGM 31AUR1
