NMFS announces that the
overall annual tilefish quota for the
2013 fishing year (November 1, 2012–
October 31, 2013) will remain the same
as it was in fishing year 2012. NMFS is
required to notify the public of the
overall annual quota levels for tilefish if
the previous year’s quota specifications
remain unchanged. This document also
provides notice of tilefish specifications
recently adopted by the Mid-Atlantic
Fishery Management Council.
SUMMARY:
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Jason Berthiaume, Fishery Management
Specialist, (978) 281–9177; fax (978)
281–9135.
The
tilefish regulations at § 648.292 specify
that NMFS notify the public in the
Federal Register of the overall annual
quota levels for tilefish if the previous
year’s quota specifications remain
unchanged. The tilefish total allowable
landings (TAL) for the 2013 fishing year
will remain the same as the fishing year
2012 TAL of 1.995 million lb (904,917
kg). Five percent of the TAL (99,750 lb
(45,246 kg)) is allocated to incidental
catch, leaving 1,895,250 lb (859,671 kg)
allocated to Individual Fishing Quota
(IFQ) holders.
This document also announces
tilefish specifications recently adopted
by the Mid-Atlantic Fishery
Management Council (Council). At the
April 2012 Council meeting, the Council
adopted specifications for an acceptable
biological catch (ABC), annual catch
limit (ACL), and annual catch target
(ACT). These specifications are
consistent with the overall quota and
rebuilding schedule that was
established in Amendment 1 to the
Golden Tilefish Fishery Management
Plan. The adopted specifications also
comply with the Council’s annual catch
limits and accountability measures
omnibus amendment (76 FR 60606;
September 29, 2011).
