Resumen
NMFS announces a transfer of 18 metric tons (mt) from the Reserve to the General category of Atlantic bluefin tuna, to ensure a late season fishery for the General category, including an 8-mt set- aside for the New York Bight. This action will assure continued collection of biological assessment and monitoring data, provide additional fishing opportunities, and increase the economic benefits from this fishery. In addition, this action will provide for fishing in an area that has not yet had an ample opportunity to harvest a fair share of the quota. The General category fishery will open on September 15, 1994, and close on September 18, 1994. The General category fishery will reopen on September 20, 1994, in the New York Bight set-aside area, and will remain open until the 8-mt set-aside quota has been harvested.
