Type: Rule
Date: 2013-07-01
Agency: Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
NMFS implements accountability measures (AMs) for commercial gray triggerfish in the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) of the South Atlantic. Commercial landings for gray triggerfish, as estimated by the Science and Research Director (SRD), are projected to reach the commercial annual catch limit (ACL) on July 7, 2013. Therefore, NMFS closes the commercial sector for gray triggerfish in the South Atlantic EEZ on July 7, 2013, and it will remain closed until the start of the next fishing season, January 1, 2014. This closure is necessary to protect the gray triggerfish resource.
