Sea Turtle Conservation; Fishing Gear Inspection Program
Document Number: E7-3630
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2007-03-01
Agency: Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
NMFS proposes to establish an inspection program for modified pound net leaders in the Virginia waters of the mainstem Chesapeake Bay. Current regulations require modified pound net leaders, as defined in the regulations, in a portion of the Virginia Chesapeake Bay, and allow them to be used in a different portion of the Chesapeake Bay. This proposed action would ensure that leaders used in those areas do in fact meet the definition of a modified pound net leader. This action, taken under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA), as amended, is intended to facilitate compliance with the existing regulation, which is designed to help protect threatened and endangered sea turtles.
