| 2013-30512 | Fisheries Off West Coast States; Coastal Pelagic Species Fisheries; Change to Start of Pacific Sardine Fishing Year | Proposed Rule | Each year, NMFS implements regulations that set the annual quota and management measures for the Pacific sardine fishing year. NMFS proposes to change the starting date of the annual Pacific sardine fishery from January 1 to July 1. This would change the fishing season from one based on the calendar year to one based on a July 1 through the following June 30th schedule. No other changes to the annual allocation structure are being made and the existing seasonal allocation percentages will remain as specified in the FMP; as would the current quota roll-over provisions. The purpose of this change is to better align the timing of the research and science that is used in the annual stock assessments with the annual management schedule. To enable this transition in fishing years, this action also would establish a one-time interim harvest period for the 6 months from January 1, 2014, through June 30, 2014. | 2013-12-23 | 2013 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2013/12/23/2013-30512/fisheries-off-west-coast-states-coastal-pelagic-species-fisheries-change-to-start-of-pacific-sardine | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2013-12-23/pdf/2013-30512.pdf | Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | 54,361 | Each year, NMFS implements regulations that set the annual quota and management measures for the Pacific sardine fishing year.
