Fisheries of the Northeastern United States; Atlantic Deep-Sea Red Crab Fishery; 2024-2027 Atlantic Deep-Sea Red Crab Specifications

Короткий зміст

We are proposing specifications for the 2024 Atlantic deep-sea red crab fishery, including an annual catch limit and total allowable landings limit, and projecting quotas for the 2025-2027 Atlantic deep- sea red crab fishery. The proposed action is intended to establish the allowable 2024 harvest levels, consistent with the Atlantic Deep-Sea Red Crab Fishery Management Plan. This action is necessary to establish allowable red crab harvest levels that will prevent overfishing.
