ACTION: Notice of intent; request for applications. AGENCY: NMFS announces its request for applications for the 2024 shark research fishery from commercial shark fishermen with directed or incidental shark limited access permits. The shark research fishery allows for the collection of fishery-dependent and biological data for future stock assessments and to meet the research objectives of the Agency. The only commercial vessels authorized to land sandbar sharks are those participating in the shark research fishery. Shark research fishery permittees may also land other large coastal sharks (LCS), small coastal sharks (SCS), smoothhound, and pelagic sharks. Commercial shark fishermen who are interested in participating in the shark research fishery need to submit a completed Shark Research Fishery Permit Application to be considered. ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUMMARY: Shark Research Fishery Permit Applications must be received no later than November 27, 2023. DATES: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:44 Oct 26, 2023 Jkt 262001 Please submit completed applications via email to NMFS.Research.Fishery@noaa.gov. For copies of the Shark Research Fishery Permit Application, please email a request to NMFS.Research.Fishery@noaa.gov. Copies of the Shark Research Fishery Permit Application are also available at the highly migratory species (HMS) website at https://www.fisheries. noaa.gov/atlantic-highly-migratoryspecies/atlantic-highly-migratoryspecies-exempted-fishing-permits. Please be advised that your application may be released under the Freedom of Information Act. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Karyl Brewster-Geisz or Delisse Ortiz at 301–427–8503, or email NMFS.Research.Fishery@noaa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Atlantic HMS fisheries (tunas, billfish, swordfish, and sharks) are managed under the authority of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.) and the Atlantic Tunas Convention Act (16 U.S.C. 971 et seq.). The 2006 Consolidated Atlantic HMS Fishery Management Plan (FMP) and its amendments are implemented by regulations at 50 CFR part 635. Specifics regarding the commercial shark quotas and the shark research fishery can be found at §§ 635.27(b) and 635.32(f). The shark research fishery was established, in part, to maintain time series data for stock assessments and to meet NMFS’ research objectives. Since the shark research fishery was established in 2008, it has allowed for: the collection of fishery-dependent data for current and future stock assessments; the operation of cooperative research to meet NMFS’ ongoing research objectives; the collection of updated life-history information used in the sandbar shark (and other species) stock assessment; the collection of data on habitat preferences that might help reduce fishery interactions through bycatch mitigation; evaluation of the utility of the mid-Atlantic closed area on the recovery of dusky sharks and collection of hook-timer and pop-up satellite archival tag information to determine atvessel and post-release mortality of dusky sharks; and collection of sharks to determine the weight conversion factor from dressed weight to whole weight. The shark research fishery allows selected commercial fishermen the opportunity to earn revenue from selling additional sharks, including sandbar sharks. Only the commercial shark fishermen selected to participate in the ADDRESSES: PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 73827 shark research fishery are authorized to land sandbar sharks subject to the sandbar quota available each year. The base quota for sandbar sharks is 90.7 metric tons (mt) dressed weight (dw) per year, although this number may be reduced in the event of overharvests. The selected shark research fishery permittees will also be allowed to land other LCS, SCS, smoothhound, and pelagic sharks consistent with any restrictions established on their shark research fishery permit. Generally, the shark research fishery permits are valid only for the calendar year for which they are issued. One hundred-percent observer coverage is required on shark research fishery trips. The specific 2024 trip limits and number of trips per month will depend on the availability of funding, number of selected vessels, the availability of observers, the available quota, and the objectives of the research fishery, and will be included in the permit terms at time of issuance. The number of participants in the research fishery changes each year. In 2023, three fishermen were chosen to participate. From 2008 through 2023, there has been an average of 6 participants each year with the range from 3 to 11. Overall, the timing of trips and the number of the trips participants taken has varied yearto-year based on seasonal availability of certain species and available quota. Specifically, the number of trips taken per month are limited by the scientific and research needs of the Agency and the number of NMFS-approved observers available; in the last few years participating vessels on average have been able to take one trip per month. Participants may also be limited in the amount of gear they can deploy on a given set (e.g., number of hooks and sets, soak times, length of longline). These limits have changed both between years and during the year depending on research goals and bycatch limits. In 2023, NMFS split 90 percent of the sandbar and LCS research fishery quotas equally among selected participants, with 16.3 mt dw (35,935 pounds (lb) dw) of sandbar shark research fishery quota and 9.0 mt dw (19,841 lb dw) of other LCS research fishery quota available to each vessel. The remaining quota was held in reserve to ensure the overall sandbar and LCS research fishery quotas were not exceeded. NMFS may use this process again for the quotas in 2024 or may consider other methods of distributing the available quotas. In 2023, NMFS continued to implement a regional dusky bycatch limit, which was first established in 2013, in the shark research fishery, E:\FR\FM\27OCN1.SGM 27OCN1
