Fisheries of the Northeastern United States; Summer Flounder, Scup, and Black Sea Bass Fisheries

摘要

NMFS proposes specifications for the 1999 summer flounder, scup, and black sea bass fisheries. The implementing regulations for the Fishery Management Plan for the Summer Flounder, Scup, and Black Sea Bass Fisheries (FMP) require NMFS to publish specifications for the upcoming fishing year for each fishery and to provide an opportunity for public comment. The intent of these measures is to address overfishing of the summer flounder, scup, and black sea bass resources.
