| 96-32891 | Atlantic Shark Fisheries; Limited Access Program | Proposed Rule | NMFS proposes to implement the limited access system contained in proposed Amendment 1 to the Fishery Management Plan for Atlantic sharks (FMP). If approved, Amendment 1 would establish a two-tiered permit system for the Atlantic shark commercial fishery, set forth eligibility criteria for these permits based on historical participation, and limit the transferability of such permits. NMFS has determined that the Atlantic shark fishery is overfished and overcapitalized, with an excessive number of permitted vessels relative to the harvest level prescribed by the recovery plan. NMFS is holding public hearings and requesting written comments from the public on this proposed rule. The objective of this amendment is to take a first and significant step to prevent further overcapitalization. | 1996-12-27 | 1996 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1996/12/27/96-32891/atlantic-shark-fisheries-limited-access-program | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1996-12-27/pdf/96-32891.pdf | Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | 54,361 | NMFS proposes to implement the limited access system contained in proposed Amendment 1 to the Fishery Management Plan for Atlantic sharks (FMP).
