March 2009. Fishing activity is
currently taking place through
December 2008 and researchers would
like to continue in March 2009, but will
need this revised exemption to do so. It
is expected that this location, within the
RCA, would provide access to large
monkfish and would avoid gear
interactions between the research gillnet
gear and trawl gear. The need to switch
RCA exemptions is due to the change in
location and vessel from the original
research proposal. Allowing an
exemption in RCA I rather than RCA III
will provide consistency with the rest of
the research that is being conducted in
that area and will avoid further delays
in the project.
The applicant may request minor
modifications and extensions to the EFP
throughout the year. EFP modifications
and extensions may be granted without
further notice if they are deemed
essential to facilitate completion of the
proposed research and have minimal
impacts that do not change the scope or
impact of the initially approved EFP
request. Any fishing activity conducted
outside the scope of the exempted
fishing activity would be prohibited.
