New York's Summer Flounder Commercial Quota for 2008 Exhausted

Summary

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has announced that the commercial quota for summer flounder allocated to New York for 2008 has been fully harvested, leaving vessels with permits for the summer flounder fishery without a quota to land summer flounder in the state for the remainder of 2008, unless additional quota becomes available through a transfer from another state.
