Foreign Fishing; Groundfish Fishery of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands; Limited Access Management of Federal Fisheries In and Off of Alaska

Resumo

NMFS announces final specifications of total allowable catches (TACs), initial apportionments of TACs for each category of groundfish, and associated management measures in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands management area (BSAI) during the 1994 fishing year. This action is necessary to establish harvest limits and associated management measures for groundfish during the 1994 fishing year. NMFS also is closing specified fisheries consistent with the final 1994 groundfish specifications and fishery bycatch allowances of prohibited species. These measures are intended to conserve and manage the groundfish resources in the BSAI.
