| E7-24907 | Fisheries of the Northeastern United States; Atlantic Sea Scallop Fishery; Framework Adjustment 20 | Rule | NMFS issues this final rule to approve and implement measures contained in Framework Adjustment 20 (Framework 20) to the Atlantic Sea Scallop Fishery Management Plan (FMP). This action maintains the trip allocations and possession limits established by the interim measures that were enacted by NMFS on June 21, 2007, for the Elephant Trunk Access Area (ETAA) in 2007 to reduce the potential for overfishing the Atlantic sea scallop (scallop) resource and excessive scallop mortality. This action reduces the number of scallop trips to the ETAA, and prohibits the retention of more than 50 U.S. bushels (17.62 hL) of in-shell scallop outside ot the boundaries of the ETAA (deckloading). The action also clarifies that the current restriction on landing no more than one scallop trip per calendar day for vessels fishing under general category rules does not prohibit a vessel from leaving on a scallop trip on the same calendar day that the vessel landed scallops. | 2007-12-21 | 2007 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2007/12/21/E7-24907/fisheries-of-the-northeastern-united-states-atlantic-sea-scallop-fishery-framework-adjustment-20 | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2007-12-21/pdf/E7-24907.pdf | Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | 54,361 | NMFS issues this final rule to approve and implement measures contained in Framework Adjustment 20 (Framework 20) to the Atlantic Sea Scallop Fishery Management Plan (FMP).
