live bait. Prior to Amendment 17, if a
Coastal Pelagic Species stock were to
become overfished, and even prior to
adoption of a rebuilding plan, the
Fishery Management Plan automatically
limited retention in the live bait fishery
of that stock to only incidentally caught
fish with no more than 15 percent of
any load being from the overfished
stock.
NMFS published a Notice Availability

Albacore Fishing Associations, the
Sportfishing Association of California,
and a private fisherman from southern
California.
There are no implementing
regulations associated with Amendment
17; therefore, NMFS did not promulgate
a proposed and final rule to implement
this amendment.
