Open for Comment: Fisheries of the Northeastern United States; Greater Atlantic Region Catch Share Cost Recovery Program Updates
Commerce Department — NMFS proposes regulatory and administrative changes to implement improvements to the Greater Atlantic Region’s Catch Share Cost Recovery Programs. These updates are intended to simplify regulations and reduce costs for the Scallop Individual Fishing Quota, Tilefish Individual Fishing Quota, and Surfclam and Ocean Quahog Individual Transferable Quota fisheries. This action would result in improved administration and management of the scallop, tilefish, and surfclam and ocean quahog fisheries. (30 days remaining)
