| 2016-31403 | Fisheries of the Northeastern United States; Northeast Multispecies Fishery; Possession and Trip Limit Modifications for the Common Pool Fishery | Rule | This action increases the possession and trip limits for Southern New England/Mid-Atlantic yellowtail flounder and reduces the possession and trip limits for Georges Bank cod in place for Northeast multispecies common pool vessels for the remainder of the 2016 fishing year. The Regional Administrator is authorized to adjust possession and trip limits for common pool vessels to facilitate harvesting, or prevent exceeding, the pertinent common pool quotas during the fishing year. Increasing the possession and trip limits on Southern New England/Mid-Atlantic yellowtail flounder is intended to provide additional fishing opportunities and help allow the common pool fishery to catch its allowable quota for the stock, while reducing the possession and trip limits for Georges Bank cod is necessary to prevent overharvest of the common pool quota for that stock. | 2016-12-28 | 2016 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/12/28/2016-31403/fisheries-of-the-northeastern-united-states-northeast-multispecies-fishery-possession-and-trip-limit | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-12-28/pdf/2016-31403.pdf | Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | 54,361 | This action increases the possession and trip limits for Southern New England/Mid-Atlantic yellowtail flounder and reduces the possession and trip limits for Georges Bank cod in place for Northeast multispecies common pool vessels for the remainder of... |
