Fisheries of the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic; Fishery Management Plans of the South Atlantic Region (FMPs); Addition to Framework Provisions

Короткий зміст

NMFS issues this final rule to implement that portion of the Comprehensive Amendment Addressing Sustainable Fishery Act Definitions and Other Required Provisions in Fishery Management Plans of the South Atlantic Region (Comprehensive Amendment) that modifies the framework procedures in the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council's FMPs to allow the addition of biomass levels and age-structured analyses to these FMPs. The intended effect is to provide a more timely mechanism for incorporating biomass levels and age-structured analyses into the FMPs when such information becomes available.
