commercial sector overage in the prior
fishing year.
(ii) Recreational sector. (A) If the sum
of the commercial and recreational
landings, as estimated by the SRD,
exceeds the stock ACL, as specified in
paragraph (c)(6)(iii) of this section, the
AA will file a notification with the
Office of the Federal Register, at or near
the beginning of the following fishing
year to reduce the length of the
following recreational fishing season by
the amount necessary to ensure
recreational landings may achieve the
recreational ACT, but do not exceed the
recreational ACL in the following
fishing year. Further, during that
following year, if necessary, the AA may
file additional notification with the
Office of the Federal Register to readjust
the reduced fishing season to ensure
recreational harvest achieves but does
not exceed the intended harvest level.
The recreational ACT is 1,184,688 lb
(537,365 kg). The recreational ACL is
1,445,687 (655,753 kg).
(B) In addition to the measures
specified in paragraph (c)(6)(ii)(A), if the
sum of the commercial and recreational
landings, as estimated by the SRD,
exceeds the stock ACL, as specified in
paragraph (c)(6)(iii) of this section, and
Atlantic migratory group cobia are
overfished, based on the most recent
status of U.S. Fisheries Report to
Congress, the AA will file a notification
with the Office of the Federal Register,
at or near the beginning of the following
fishing year to reduce the recreational
ACL and ACT for that following year by
the amount of any recreational sector
overage in the prior fishing year.
(C) Recreational landings will be
evaluated relative to the ACL based on
a moving multi-year average of landings,
as described in the FMP.
(iii) The stock ACL for Atlantic
migratory group cobia is 1,571,399 lb
(712,775 kg).

SUMMARY:
Background
NMFS announced the stock status of
sandbar, dusky, and Atlantic and Gulf of
Mexico blacknose shark stocks in a
Federal Register notice on October 7,
2011 (76 FR 62331). The notice also
announced NMFS’ intent to undertake
rulemaking to rebuild and/or end
overfishing of these Atlantic shark
stocks and to prepare an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) to assess the
potential effects on the human and
natural environment resulting from this
rulemaking. The notice also announced
that NMFS is in the scoping phase of the
rulemaking process and notified the
public of five public scoping meetings
and one conference call to provide the
opportunity for public comment on
potential shark management measures.
Further details regarding the public

and prevent overfishing. This document
