On May 5,
2023, NMFS published a proposed rule
(88 FR 29050) for Draft Amendment 15
to the 2006 Consolidated HMS FMP.
Draft Amendment 15 and its proposed
rule considers changes to Atlantic HMS
fishery management measures regarding
four commercial longline spatial
management areas and the
administration and funding of the HMS
pelagic longline EM program. In the
proposed rule, NMFS announced a 133day comment period ending on
September 15, 2023. During the public
comment period, NMFS received
requests from multiple constituent
groups, including the Billfish
Foundation and Blue Water Fishermen’s
Association, to extend the public
comment period. Constituents noted the
complexity and length of the
Amendment and the use of a spatial
modeling tool, HMS Predictive Spatial
Modeling (PRiSM), as reasons for
needing more time to read, understand,
and provide relevant public comments.
Furthermore, forecasted impacts from
Hurricane Idalia necessitated canceling
a previously scheduled public hearing
in Panama City, Florida. The extended
comment period provides additional
time to the hold the rescheduled
hearing. After considering the request,
NMFS has determined that it is
reasonable to extend the comment
period to allow sufficient time for HMS
Advisory Panel members and other
constituents to fully consider the
analyses, data, and conclusions relevant
to the proposed management measures
and to allow additional opportunities
for public comment. Therefore, NMFS is
extending the comment period until
October 2, 2023, for a total of 150 days
for public input on the proposed rule.
Comments received during the comment
period will assist NMFS in determining
final management measures, consistent
with the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act, the
Atlantic Tunas Convention Act, and the
2006 Consolidated HMS FMP.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Due to forecasted impacts from
Hurricane Idalia, NMFS canceled the
Amendment 15 public hearing
originally scheduled for August 29,
2023 in Panama City, FL. NMFS has
rescheduled the Amendment 15 public
hearing at the same location on
September 18, 2023 (Table 1).
