Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone Off Alaska; Reallocation of Pacific Cod

Samenvatting

NMFS is reallocating the projected unused amount of Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands management area (BSAI) Pacific cod from trawl catcher/processors and vessels using jig gear to vessels using hook- and-line or pot gear. These actions are necessary to allow the 1998 total allowable catch (TAC) of Pacific cod to be harvested.
