| 2016-31067 | Fisheries of the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic; Shrimp Fishery of the Gulf of Mexico; Revision of Bycatch Reduction Device Testing Manual | Rule | In accordance with the framework procedures for adjusting management measures of the Fishery Management Plan for the Shrimp Fishery of the Gulf of Mexico (Gulf FMP), NMFS makes administrative revisions to the Bycatch Reduction Device Testing Manual (BRD Manual). The BRD Manual contains procedures for the testing and certification of BRDs for use in shrimp trawls in the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in the Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) and South Atlantic. The changes to the BRD Manual remove outdated or obsolete data collection forms previously appended to the BRD Manual, and revise the text to make several procedural steps outlined in the BRD Manual clearer and easier to understand. The purpose of these revisions is to increase understanding of the BRD certification protocols. | 2016-12-27 | 2016 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/12/27/2016-31067/fisheries-of-the-caribbean-gulf-of-mexico-and-south-atlantic-shrimp-fishery-of-the-gulf-of-mexico | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-12-27/pdf/2016-31067.pdf | Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | 54,361 | In accordance with the framework procedures for adjusting management measures of the Fishery Management Plan for the Shrimp Fishery of the Gulf of Mexico (Gulf FMP), NMFS makes administrative revisions to the Bycatch Reduction Device Testing Manual... |
