The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) proposes to set annual catch limits (ACLs) and accountability measures (AMs) for deepwater shrimp and precious coral fisheries in the main Hawaiian Islands from 2022 to 2025. If the total catch exceeds the ACL, the limit will be reduced in the following year.
