Resumen
NMFS announces the renewal of experimental fishing permit (EFP) #93-1 to Terra Marine Research and Education, Inc. (TMRE), and participating vessels and shoreside processors. Under the renewal process, a new EFP #94-2 will be issued to authorize vessel operators, shoreside processors, and TMRE to retain voluntarily Pacific salmon caught as bycatch that would otherwise be required to be discarded at sea as prohibited species. This EFP was designed and modified to develop qualifying criteria for vessels and processors that may wish to participate in a voluntary salmon bycatch donation program being considered by the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council). Activities authorized under this EFP are intended to provide information not otherwise available through research or commercial fishing operations.
