Fisheries of the Northeastern United
States; Scup Fishery; Adjustment to
the 2017 Winter II Quota
National Marine Fisheries
Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),
Commerce.
ACTION: Temporary rule; inseason
adjustment.
AGENCY:
NMFS adjusts the 2017
Winter II commercial scup quota and
per trip Federal landing limit. This
action is intended to comply with
Framework Adjustment 3 to the
Summer Flounder, Scup, and Black Sea
Bass Fishery Management Plan that
established the rollover of unused
commercial scup quota from the Winter
I period to the Winter II period. This
notice is intended to inform the public
of this quota and trip limit change.
DATES: Effective November 1, 2017,
through December 31, 2017.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Cynthia Hanson, Fishery Management
Specialist, (978) 281–9180.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NMFS
published a final rule in the Federal
Register on November 3, 2003 (68 FR
62250), implementing a process to roll
over unused Winter I commercial scup
quota (January 1 through April 30) to be
added to the Winter II period quota
(November 1 through December 31).
This framework also allows adjustment
of the commercial possession limit for
the Winter II period dependent on the
amount of quota rolled over from the
Winter I period.
For 2017, the initial Winter II quota is
2,929,762 lb (1,329 mt). The best
available landings information indicates
that 2,231,152 lb (1,012 mt) remain of
the 8,291,190 lb (3,761 mt) of Winter I
quota. Consistent with Framework 3, the
full amount of unused 2017 Winter I
quota is being transferred to Winter II,
resulting in a revised 2017 Winter II
quota of 5,160,914 lb (2,341 mt).
Because the amount transferred is
greater than 2,000,000 lb (907 mt), the
Federal per trip possession limit will
increase from 12,000 lb (5,443 kg) to
18,000 lb (8,165 kg), as outlined in the
final rule that established the possession
limit and quota rollover procedures for

PO 00000
Frm 00038
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
This action is required by 50 CFR part
648 and is exempt from review under
Executive Order 12866.
The Assistant Administrator for
Fisheries, NOAA, finds good cause
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) to waive
prior notice and the opportunity for
public comment on this in-season
adjustment because it would be contrary
to the public interest. If implementation
of this in-season action is delayed to
solicit prior public comment, the
objective of the fishery management
plan to achieve the optimum yield from
the fishery could be compromised;
deteriorating weather conditions during
the latter part of the fishing year will
reduce fishing effort and could prevent
the annual quota from being fully
harvested. This would conflict with the
agency’s legal obligation under the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act to
achieve the optimum yield from a
fishery on a continuing basis, resulting
in a negative economic impact on
vessels permitted to fish in this fishery.
Moreover, the rollover process and
potential changes in trip limits were
already outlined in the 2016 to 2018
specifications published December 28,
2015, that were provided for notice and
comment rulemaking.
Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.
