| 2016-14239 | Pacific Bluefin Tuna in the Eastern Pacific Ocean; Response to Petition for Rulemaking | Rule | NMFS announces its decision on a petition for rulemaking submitted by the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD). In their petition, CBD requested that NMFS implement additional domestic regulations to address the relative impacts of the U.S. fleet on the Pacific bluefin tuna (PBF) stock, which is overfished and subject to overfishing. Outside of the scope of their petition for rulemaking, CBD also requested that NMFS develop recommendations for international fishery management organizations to take actions to end overfishing of PBF. In light of public comments, NMFS is responding to each element of the petition but referring the specific requests for rulemaking under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA) to the Pacific Fishery Management Council (Pacific Council) for further consideration. The decision was made on June 9, 2016. | 2016-06-16 | 2016 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/06/16/2016-14239/pacific-bluefin-tuna-in-the-eastern-pacific-ocean-response-to-petition-for-rulemaking | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-06-16/pdf/2016-14239.pdf | Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | 54,361 | NMFS announces its decision on a petition for rulemaking submitted by the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD).
