Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 16 / Wednesday, January 24, 2024 / Notices ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 methods in an area to ensure that any limit on fishing-related mortality is not exceeded. The purpose of the Fisheries Act is to provide for the utilization of fisheries resources while ensuring sustainability. This means that the Minister does not have discretion to choose whether to act or not, but rather the Minister has authority to quickly enact additional prohibitions considered necessary to ensure the bycatch limit is not exceeded. The GNZ created a Ma¯ui dolphin Threat Management Plan (TMP). The TMP provides clear objectives to ensure that government agencies are operating collectively. Some of the TMP objectives are: ensure that dolphin deaths arising from fisheries threats do not exceed the population sustainability threshold (PST) with 95 percent certainty, causes localized depletion, create substantial barriers to dispersal between subpopulations, and allow localized subpopulations to recover and/or remain at or above 80 percent of their unimpacted status with 95 percent certainty. The TMP is underpinned by the GNZs multi-species Spatially Explicit Fisheries Risk Assessment (SEFRA) model. The SEFRA model allows for improved statistical estimation of commercial fisheries risks to protected species. Specifically, the SEFRA model addresses the needs of fisheries managers in low information fisheries where observer coverage is low and protected species capture rates are rare to inform statistically robust capture estimates. Evidence of a Regulatory Plan To Reduce Bycatch Below the Bycatch Limit Based on IATC’s analysis, the GNZ’s regulatory program, including the fishery-specific area restrictions are comparable in effectiveness to U.S. standards. This regulatory program will result in Ma¯ui dolphin bycatch below PBR and concentrate the fisheries restrictions in the areas with the greatest risk, specifically those areas where fishing activities overlap with the Ma¯ui dolphin population. These restrictions, which are focused on the area that represents the greatest density of Ma¯ui dolphins, virtually eliminates the bycatch risk from set-nets and significantly reduces the trawl bycatch risk for Ma¯ui dolphins in this area. The additional restrictions at the northern and southern extent (tails of the population) of the Ma¯ui dolphin distribution reduces the bycatch risk for the extreme ranges (smaller proportion). This is comparable to U.S. standards, which does not require that a Take Reduction Plan or the U.S. regulatory VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:06 Jan 23, 2024 Jkt 262001 program eliminate 100 percent of the bycatch risk to a particular marine mammal stock. The U.S. regulatory program seeks to target the greatest percentage of risk in the areas with the greatest overlap of fishing and the marine mammal distribution and mitigate that bycatch risk below the bycatch limit for that specific marine mammal. As a result of these findings, NMFS announces the issuance of positive comparability findings that will allow the importation into the United States of fish and fish products harvested by New Zealand’s set-net and trawl fisheries operating off the West Coast North Island within the Ma¯ui dolphin’s range.
