Fisheries Off West Coast States and in the Western Pacific; Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery; Whiting Closure for the Catcher/Processor Sector

摘要

NMFS announces closure of the 2002 catcher/processor fishery for Pacific whiting (whiting) at 0000 local time (l.t.) October 16, 2002, because the allocation for the catcher/processor sector will be reached by that time. This action is intended to keep the harvest of whiting within the 2002 allocation levels.
