ACTION: Temporary rule; approval of
quota transfers.
AGENCY:
NMFS announces its approval
of two transfers of 2016 commercial
bluefish quota from the States of New
Hampshire and North Carolina to the
State of New York. The approval of
these transfers complies with the
Atlantic Bluefish Fishery Management
Plan quota transfer provision. This
announcement also informs the public
of the revised commercial quotas for
New Hampshire, North Carolina, and
New York.
DATES: Effective October 25, 2016,
through December 31, 2016.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Reid
Lichwell, Fishery Management
Specialist, (978) 281–9112.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Regulations governing the Atlantic
bluefish fishery are found in 50 CFR
648.160 through 648.167. The
regulations require annual specification
of a commercial quota that is
apportioned among the coastal states
from Maine through Florida. The
process to set the annual commercial
quota and the percent allocated to each
state are described in § 648.162.

transferring commercial bluefish quota
from one state to another. Two or more
states, under mutual agreement and
with the concurrence of the
Administrator, Greater Atlantic Region,
NMFS (Regional Administrator), can
request approval of a transfer of bluefish
commercial quota under
§ 648.162(e)(1)(i) through (iii). The
Regional Administrator must first
approve any such transfers based on the
criteria in § 648.162(e).
New Hampshire has agreed to transfer
20,000 lb (9,072 kg), and North Carolina
50,000 lb (22,680 kg) of their 2016
commercial bluefish quotas to New
York. These states have certified that the
transfers meet all pertinent state
requirements. These quota transfers
were requested by New York to ensure
that its 2016 quota would not be
exceeded. The Regional Administrator
has approved these quota transfers
based on his determination that the
criteria set forth in § 648.162(e)(1)(i)
through (iii) have been met. The revised
bluefish quotas for calendar year 2016
are: New Hampshire, 247 lb (112 kg);
North Carolina, 1,341,100 lb (608,313kg)
and New York, 747, 289 lb (338,965 kg).
These quota adjustments revise the
quotas specified in the final rule
implementing the 2016–2018 Atlantic
Bluefish Specifications published on
August 4, 2016 (81 FR 51370), and
reflect all subsequent commercial
bluefish quota transfers completed to
date. For information of previous
transfers for fishing year 2016 visit the
