2016-03610 Fisheries Off West Coast States; Coastal Pelagic Species Fisheries; Annual Specifications Rule NMFS issues this final rule to implement annual management measures and harvest specifications to establish the allowable catch levels (i.e. annual catch limit (ACL)/harvest guideline (HG)) for Pacific mackerel in the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) off the Pacific Coast for the fishing season of July 1, 2015, through June 30, 2016. This rule is implemented pursuant to the Coastal Pelagic Species (CPS) Fishery Management Plan (FMP). The 2015-2016 HG for Pacific mackerel is 21,469 metric tons (mt). This is the total commercial fishing target level. This action also implements an annual catch target (ACT), of 20,469 mt. If the fishery attains the ACT, the directed fishery will close, reserving the difference between the HG (21,469 mt) and ACT as a 1,000 mt set-aside for incidental landings in other CPS fisheries and other sources of mortality. This final rule is intended to conserve and manage the Pacific mackerel stock off the U.S. West Coast. 2016-02-23 2016 2 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/02/23/2016-03610/fisheries-off-west-coast-states-coastal-pelagic-species-fisheries-annual-specifications https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-02-23/pdf/2016-03610.pdf Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 54,361 NMFS issues this final rule to implement annual management measures and harvest specifications to establish the allowable catch levels (i.e. annual catch limit (ACL)/harvest guideline (HG)) for Pacific mackerel in the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ)... 0648-XE04
