Endangered and Threatened Species; Take of Anadromous Fish
NMFS has evaluated the Tribal Resource Management Plans (Plans) submitted by the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes, and the Nez Perce Tribe to NMFS pursuant to the limitation on take prohibitions for actions conducted under the Tribal Rule of section 4(d) for salmon and steelhead promulgated under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). The Plans specify fishery management activities in the Oregon and Washington portions of the Snake River basin.

Caribbean Fishery Management Council; Scoping Meetings
The Caribbean Fishery Management Council will hold scoping meetings to obtain input from fishers, the general public, and the local agencies representatives on the development of island-specific fishery management plans for Puerto Rico, St. Thomas/St. John, USVI and St. Croix, USVI. A fishery management plan will be developed for each of these areas. The document entitled ``Development of a Comprehensive Fishery Management Plan for the Exclusive Economic Zone of St. Thomas/St. John, USVI,'' will consider the following alternative actions: Action 1: Establish the fishery management units (FMUs) for the comprehensive St. Thomas/St/John fishery management plan (FMP). Action 2: Revise the species composition of the comprehensive St. Thomas/St. John FMP. Action 3: Establish management reference points for any new species added to the comprehensive St. Thomas/St. John FMP. Action 4: Modify or establish additional management measures. The document entitled ``Development of a Comprehensive Fishery Management Plan for the Exclusive Economic Zone of St. Croix, USVI,'' will consider the following alternative actions: Action 1: Establish the fishery management units (FMUs) for the comprehensive St. Croix, USVI fishery management plan (FMP). Action 2: Revise the species composition of the comprehensive St. Croix FMP. Action 3: Establish management reference points for any new species added to the comprehensive St. Croix, USVI FMP. Action 4: Modify or establish additional management measures. The document entitled ``Development of a Comprehensive Fishery Management Plan for the Exclusive Economic Zone of Puerto Rico,'' will consider the following alternative actions: Action 1: Establish the fishery management units (FMUs) for the comprehensive Puerto Rico fishery management plan (FMP). Action 2: Revise the species composition of the comprehensive Puerto Rico FMP. Action 3: Establish management reference points for any new species added to the comprehensive Puerto Rico FMP. Action 4: Modify or establish additional management measures. The comprehensive plans will incorporate and modify, as needed, federal fishery management measures included in each of the existing species based management plans (Spiny Lobster, Reef Fish, Coral and Queen Conch). The goal is to create management plans tailored to the specific fishery management needs of each area. If approved, these new management plans being developed for each area; St. Thomas/St. John, USVI; St. Croix, USVI, and Puerto Rico, will replace the current species-based plans presently governing commercial and recreational harvest in the U.S. Caribbean federal waters.
