الملخص

NMFS is closing the directed fishery for species in the rock sole/``other flatfish'' fishery category by vessels using trawl gear in bycatch limitation zone 2 (Zone 2) of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area (BSAI). This action is necessary to prevent exceeding the prohibited species bycatch allowance of C. bairdi Tanner crab to the trawl rock sole/``other flatfish'' fishery category in Zone 2.
